I think this comes down to joeshmoe and BHows.  People always lose in these application processes, and Rick lost unfairly the last time the Dodgers were open which is why a formal process was put into place.  I think we owe this to Rick because of what happened.  Ironic that the same team is open for him.  There is another strong opening for joeshmoe with the Nationals, and he would be the best candidate for that internal transfer.  This would leave the Padres, a franchise which needs TLC and patience, to one of the aspiring outsiders.  Those who have served their time, or been screwed, get the ability to take solid franchises such as :LAD: and :WAS:.

I don't want any team...I waited for the teams I would like to run.  I was wronged way before Rick when I was skipped for the Yankees.  If we're correcting wrongs it's my team before Ricks.  If we're going by sticking it out, I didn't drop the league because I didn't get the team I wanted (NYY) I stayed, isn't that to be rewarded?  I didn't quit and expect a cushioned spot when I decided I was ready.  And if both franchises are both so solid rick should have no issue representing WAS.

I think being allowed back into a league that he quit, jumping over the rest of the waiting list, and getting any team left open is a good start.  And again, no Washington will not fix me being wronged and robbed.  And this is the second time, NYY now LAD.  And, nobody has said one word about how this isn't even open to Rick until its passed through internal transfers.  Any word about this at all?  Can we count on this league upholding its rules or is there disregard for this completely?  Which rules count and when let me know in advanced.  This way I wont waste three years waiting for a transfer to believe the rules would be followed only to find out favorites would be played.

I am carefully weighing all the factors here, but I believe that a commissioner's "executive order" falls short of an official rule, especially when considering that it was not passed by the Rules Committee at the time.

I'll respect any decision that Roy makes.  It is a subjective matter and I gave my opinion.  Note that I didn't even mention the qualified applicants including the likes of Eric and MTK.

3 times is correct, and not hogwash. Give me a day since I am at a fundraiser and I will provide the dates of your inactivity for over 30 days on all 3 occasions. You also have behavioral warnings for rude conduct on many occasions toward members of this site. This conduct was done on the boards and via pm. So once again Jeff and Rick have proved a track record of good behavior.

Jeff took a bad team and made them winners.  You took a bad team and havent improved. So jeff would be more qualified.

Once again either way I support Rick to be the next gm. No doubt about it.

1) Take your day

2)  Red sox have 2x the payroll...apples and oranges.

3)  Behavior is irrelevant here.  Rick quit a league because he lost out on a team.  Not stellar behavior.  It's rose colored glasses for everything you say Corey because we haven't gotten along over many occasions.  I don't think rehashing it on here is appropriate.

What did make it a rule was the consistent use of it as a meter for transfers since.

  • indiansnation: Giants To Sign Blake Snell March 18th, 2024 at 8:45pm CST • By Anthony Franco 8:45pm: Snell receives a $15MM salary for the upcoming season and has a $17MM signing bonus that will not be paid until 2026, reports Susan Slusser of the San Francisco Chronicle (on X). That indicates he’ll be deciding on whether to opt out of a $30MM salary next winter, although the delayed date on the payment of the bonus reduces the team’s short-term commitment.  8:23pm: Blake Snell is in agreement with the Giants on a two-year, $62MM contract that allows him to opt out after the upcoming season, reports Jon Heyman of the New York Post (X link). San Francisco adds the defending NL Cy Young winner to the top of a staff that also includes last year’s runner-up, Logan Webb.  ADVERTISEMENT
