Owned by Braves

Listed as FA in Fantrax. Might as well add him to their roster.

Should we find a new owner for the Reds?  I hate for you to be in a league that you completely despise, run by people that are incompetent and cheaters.  I mean that can't be any fun at all.  Let me know if we should find a new owner.  Thanks.

BTW, your pick is skipped.  Maybe spending less time in a schizophrenic rant about nothing and more time paying attention to the draft will ensure you don't get your picks skipped.

As of today, we have over half of the teams not making picks. Many have been on "auto-skip" for 10-15 rounds. Washington doesn't have a single player listed as "drafted".

Do these teams have owners? Are they just not participating? Or are they just so confused with who's turn it is and what round we are currently in that they don't make a choice?

Some teams get the benefit of being told they are "up next" while most do not get any notice they may be up next or in the next several picks.

Here's the list of teams who have been and are currently on "autoskip", taken from the official draft thread:

Los Angeles Dodgers – autoskipped (Since Rd3)
Seattle Mariners – skipped (Since Rd4)
San Diego Padres – skipped (Since Rd4)
Washington Nationals – autoskipped (Entire Draft)
Pittsburgh Pirates – skipped (Since Rd5)
Kansas City Royals – skipped (Since Rd6)
Cleveland Indians – autoskipped (Since Rd7)
Atlanta Braves  - skipped (Since Rd9)
Chicago Cubs – skipped (Since Rd11)
Oakland Athletics – skipped (Since Rd13)
Miami Marlins – skipped (Since Rd14)
St. Louis Cardinals – skipped (Since Rd14)
Toronto Blue Jays – autoskipped (Since Rd16)
Baltimore Orioles – skipped (Since Rd18)
New York Yankees – skipped (Since Rd19)
Minnesota Twins – skipped (Since Rd17).

Everyone who has played in this league for at least a season understands the only way to build a team here is through the drafting of players.

  • Daddy: If i have 10 top level AA prospects each in the top 10 of the franchise vs one middle of the road pitcher like Cal Quantrill (or pick a guy) which one of those two packages are more valuable?
    May 05, 2024, 02:39:26 PM
  • Daddy: If you think its the AA guys send me a pm.
    May 05, 2024, 02:40:07 PM
  • Daddy: Also... Ive got a nice private island full of beautiful women to sell you. Pay me upfront and i will send you its coordinates. We call it the Virgin Daddy Islands. $5k reserves it for your future.
    May 05, 2024, 02:41:59 PM
  • dbreer23: Take two to tango, though. Most owners with adequate or surplus SP aren't interested in prospects as they're trying to win now.
    May 05, 2024, 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    May 05, 2024, 02:45:09 PM
  • Braves155: My issue in LIVE currently is having Strider/Alcantara/Giolito all on the long shelf, so I am more retooling than rebuilding
    May 05, 2024, 02:46:48 PM
  • Daddy: Also agreed. Top quality pitching probably means not much depth. A few injuries can challenge you. Pitching other than top end pitching has been devalued in fantasy. Everyone wants the stud.
    May 05, 2024, 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    May 05, 2024, 02:49:45 PM
  • Daddy: I here to tell you that ALL major league pitching is good pitching. A great hitter beats a terrible pitcher just 3 out of 10 times. Which means the worst pitchers > the greatest hitters.

  • Brent: Greg Maddux had the best outlook.  He viewed himself as tye dealer/house and you had to beat him.  Just like in the casino, the house nearly always wins.
    May 05, 2024, 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    May 05, 2024, 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.

  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    May 05, 2024, 05:21:23 PM
  • Daddy: Until someone starts a minor league baseball fantasy game or option. Maybe we can petition fantrax? I just dont think they will care for that.
    May 05, 2024, 05:23:07 PM
  • Daddy: Neither should we (so much). Every league i see is MLB.

  • Braves155: The problem with the minors is not the system as a whole, it is some Farm Systems are more 'elite' at being able to produce talent than others. If you look across MLB teams you can pretty easily tell the great systems from the weaker systems and talent development
    May 05, 2024, 05:57:14 PM
  • Braves155: With regard to pitching in the Minors...there is  method to the madness. It is all about what you make of it tho. I agree that it can seem certain type arms in the minors are a dime a dozen
    May 05, 2024, 06:02:39 PM
  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    May 05, 2024, 06:20:28 PM
  • Daddy: This is fantasy baseball. We dont generate revenue selling prospects and merchandising. Our top farms dont get a write up in Sports Illustrated.
    May 05, 2024, 06:22:29 PM
  • Daddy: Load up on MLB guys, then near MLB guys, and only then is the quality of your prospects matter. Ya dig ;)
    May 05, 2024, 06:24:36 PM
  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.

  • Daddy: See for yourself [link]
    Yesterday at 07:06:43 PM
  • Daddy: Now either there are a lot of people copying our style or trying to learn it.. or possibly there is just that much interest by visitors. Maybe both. Either way, we got to be doing something right. The NHL LIVE season, will start with an amateur draft.
