You only have $0.1m available cap, league rules require a team to have enough cap to cover open bids.

“Make sure you have the cap to bid on FA or your bid will be illegal and not recognized.”

When I drop a player to sign them, it'll be the same cap....

ie. Drop Tyler Flowers to sign Chris Ianetta is an even cap swap.

If you require teams to drop players in order to bid on them before they're won, that's the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard and you can find yourself a new GM. No other league on this site has that rule that I've been in. See ya guys, it's been fun, but don't have time to worry about little nuances like this for a sport I don't follow very closely. And Flash had been a giant arse to me since day-2 anyways (was nice in signing me up for the league on day-1).
Thanks for the opportunity, at least the team will be a decent take-over for next season!

Even swap?  If you drop C Flowers, Tyler, $0.3m (2019), does his contract suddenly disappear or does he become a player who is Released Under Contract?  Obviously, because he’s not a (P/n-a), his contract is still counted against the Blue Jays salary cap—so with only $0.1m in available cap, your five open bids amount to $1.4m more than than you have.  The rule is intended to prevent reckless bidding, so if that upsets you enough to quit, then all that can be said is good luck.

Bad example. I have a lot of useless prospects who aren't "impact prospects" that can be dropped. Picked that example because it was C for C, but yes, you are right.

Read my PM, Flash. That's all I'll post. Thanks.

Also... Sorry for trying to sign some MLB players and trying to at least field a competitive team this year rather than straight up tank. Would you rather me just buy out all my MLB players and load up on PC players instead?

  • BayAreaBallers: my only qualms is what is the method to pay. i dont wanan havta make another money account like league safe
    May 15, 2024, 08:04:39 PM
  • Daddy: It uses the LIVE scoring engine. Otherwise its a completely different baseball option then LIVE, FGM, or Armchair.
    May 15, 2024, 08:05:26 PM
  • Daddy: I think its thru fantrax but its next season so he has time to sort that out.
    May 15, 2024, 08:06:04 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i got that
    May 15, 2024, 08:07:32 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: its just its a money league
    May 15, 2024, 08:07:38 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i havat be very careful w such things
    May 15, 2024, 08:07:46 PM
  • Daddy: Variety is what all of our leagues should be, no two alike. So we as a site can cater to all types. MLB LIVE lost a HOF level GM (Paul) because he doesn't do H2H leagues.
    May 15, 2024, 08:08:02 PM
  • TheGOAT: @Daddy, when will NBA Live be in full swing?
    May 15, 2024, 08:09:19 PM
  • Daddy: Its there as an option. $10 entry for a chance to win $100 or double your money. Worst case you're out $10 but no contracts etc.
    May 15, 2024, 08:09:37 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat starting two leagues next month. NBA could be ready by the upcoming season.
    May 15, 2024, 08:10:17 PM
  • Daddy: @TheGoat I'm waiting on the creation of league boards per @Anthony. Once the boards are up the building of the league begins.
    May 15, 2024, 08:11:17 PM
  • Daddy: NHL & NCAA football will both be insane for a minute.
    May 15, 2024, 08:12:19 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: its also redraft
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:07 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: which makes it interesting
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:16 PM
  • Daddy: NBA LIVE scoring, concept, rules, its all ready to go. The concept was completed last month.
    May 15, 2024, 08:14:18 PM
  • Daddy: @BAB exactly. Fresh start each year. @Alpha5 is on to something. And the LIVE scoring engine is legit.
    May 15, 2024, 08:15:13 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: i just need to know how money is handled
    May 15, 2024, 08:17:55 PM
  • BayAreaBallers: before deciding
    May 15, 2024, 08:18:01 PM
  • Daddy: That's fair. He is building his own brand "Powerhouse" is redraft each sport $10 entry & 20 teams. Football, Baseball, Basketball, and lastly hockey.
    May 15, 2024, 08:23:34 PM
  • Daddy: Each sport powered by the LIVE scoring engine.
    May 15, 2024, 08:24:55 PM
  • Daddy: Redraft
    May 15, 2024, 08:25:35 PM
  • Daddy: Im so proud lol (insert tear) #newgeneration

  • Braves155: I had the best sick day ever today. This morning I woke sick as piss, texted my boss I was taking a sick day as it wasn't happening. I might also might have met someone who shows interest in this old boy
    May 15, 2024, 09:48:46 PM
  • Braves155: Via an accidental text from said person.

  • dbreer23: It's a clear and quiet night in MLB LIVE, and the boards are cleared...
    May 15, 2024, 10:25:23 PM

  • Jwalkerjr88: Some guys just dont trade for whatever reason. But the guys who dont arent championship contenders.
    Yesterday at 04:55:47 PM
  • Daddy: They trade, about as often as real teams do. For people that love year round trading, being in one league, one sport, its going to be difficult.
