I saw that this was brought up before, and since I'm newish to the league I don't know if I'm beating a dead horse, but has there been any consideration to remove the IR and Minors fantrax teams and just allowing those guys to be on our own minors/IR rosters? It would be a whole lot easier for Drew and whoever else does fantrax, and in a free league, as well as my own experiences with these owners, I would expect people to be honest and not make any illegal moves. It will also be pretty helpful to keep a closer eye on our minors guys as they approach 40 games, as well as getting or IR guys back when they are healthy faster.

It has come up in a few different threads.  I think a change was in the works a while ago, not sure what's going on.

This should happen in my opinion. I removed a player off IR a week ago and nothing has been done. Probably loosing points as we speak. This league used to be the best............not so sure anymore........it's a dam shame. What ticks me off even more is if Edm ever makes a trade or move.......BAM.........fantraxed the next day..... :rool: :rool: :rool: :thumbsup:

Same with Barkov for me. Good thing I'm not in the running for the playoffs. This would save Drew the trouble of having to make all those moves, taking some stuff off his plate.

Yes this will be adjusted for next year, I thought I could manage but life has been too busy and the loss of Walt as a fantrax guy has been tough. Tony is doing his best as well but is very busy as well. If we have another person that is able to process then that would be great but this will be changed for next season to have everything on your roster available to you.

I'm very sorry about this abby. I know it seems bad but most likely if I am making a move it means I have been able to get time to be here then I try to do as much as possible. Again I am sorry for this, I will try to schedule in time to do this work to make sure we maintain the league standard.

Again sorry guys, I will try to do better.

No worries. Life happens. I'm willing to help out with fantrax for the remainder of the season if that helps.

  • 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.

    Yesterday at 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.

  • 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
    Yesterday at 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

  • Daddy: Mr Braves you are my guy. There isnt anything wrong with minor league studs or flops. I get it in REAL baseball.
    Yesterday at 06:20:28 PM
