I engaged in conversations here on profsl last week about him possibly joining new era. I found out that he was a huge Yankee fan, however in new era the cost of the yanks is $248, that being a little high Daniel stayed away from new era.

While updating the rosters today, I started to think about taking the Mets since noone seems to be able to stick with them. In the process I thought hec, Maybe Daniel would like the Yanks, since when he joined the site there were no Yankee openings. He has experience and knowledge so what the hec, I gave him the breakdown of how the league works. How the scoring is, let him review the team and so forth and after some thought he wanted to join.

While I do welcome new blood to this league, I am at same time worried that an unproven/inactive GM can ruin a proud franchise that both you and the previous GM put so much effort building, hence my question.

Welcome to the league Daniel!  This is potentially the best team in the league.

I guess I have a new rival in the AL East. Good luck and welcome! Hope to be a worthy adversary to the New York powerhouse you'll be managing now.

Don't look now, but Longoria is finally back and Hanley is starting to heat up (not going to score 3.84 pts a game too much longer).  Being at .500 with Hanley's start and Longo's injury + 3 SP on the DL is not too shabby....rest assured, the Rays will be heard from this year in the East!   :koolaid:

I am stepping down as GM of the Yankees. Daniel Pruitt (ltd217) an avid Yankee fan, and like the rest of us he is a fantasy lover. He will take over the Yankee's immediately and the current pending transactions is still valid.

Welcome Daniel, to the greatest league on Profsl.com

Im really a little upset I wasn't offered the position.  That's standard protocol.  I am opposed to the signing, as I would have considered the transition to NYY and have been here for well over a year.  I am disappointed.

It really should be clarified that an exiting GM may seek a replacement for their position before they leave that post.  Most often this has not happened but we did follow this with Boston and Detroit.

So being IN the league shouldn't qualify for choice to move to the newly opened club?  So I could be stuck in SD forever, hypothetically, because people keep replacing themselves with outsiders?  And, for me to get a new club I'd need to quit and re apply and wait.  I'm sorry but that's bull.  I've done my time in this league.  I and the other GMs should have choice when it comes to taking over a powerhouse club.  Corey didn't send me a message to take over the team.  Seems like a stupid way to do things and I am pretty upset about it.
