  • DaveW: is there a auto-sign tracker where we keep track of prospect auto-signs?  Since I'm new to the league I'd like to figure out if the previous GM used any of our auto-signs before I took over.

  • Brent: The Spreadsheet link on Fantrax doesn't work.
    August 19, 2025, 07:23:42 AM
  • TheProfessor: Not sure which link you tried, so here's what I'd do: Go to the Chat links from your FT page, find the one titled Armchair Spreadsheet, scroll up a bit and you'll find the link to the Google Docs page.

All we are talking about is Pittsburgh. How do any of the other teams benefit from this trade? I have a simple deal getting vetoed but here we have this behemoth that everyone is just fine and tidy with?

 :veto:

This veto obviously doesn't count.

Your entire premise is whiny BS.  You have no actual baseball related reason to reject the trade, a trade you already said you didn't understand.  The simplicity or complexity of a trade isn't a just cause for a veto. 

You're flat out vetoing a trade in revenge for your trade being vetoed for being judged lopsided despite the fact nobody involved in this trade vetoed your trade.  That's just petty and childish.

My "baseball related reason" is that this trade would never fly in MLB. The peple involved in this trade are the only oes vetoing my fdeal.

You have Pittsburgh trading his entire MLB roster for draft-picks and some cash. I'm sure that now when I take an even deeper look into it, I'll find plenty more wrong with this deal.

One group of people controlling the trades will ruin this league and is the major reason why so many people quit. This happened last season and here we go again. Some old $hit.

Come on man chill out.  I have already reached out to you privately, but you flaunting your feathers on the boards doesn't do anything but bad things for you and the league.

2 of the people in this trade have been here for about a month and are very active members with tons of baseball knowledge trying to turn around bad teams.  Do I agree with it all?  No.....but I can understand the reasoning.  How are they controlling things?  You liked it better with less active members?    :o

Your trade like I said before is close but needs slight adjustment.  Just suck it up and be a man about it.  :KC: and :BOS: revamped one and it's done.  No big deal.  If anything it's a compliment to your managing that everyone thinks you got too much.

I can tell you that trades need to be metered and I don't veto much but when a team is trying to rebuild but trades two big pieces of that rebuild it is better to veto then end up with the mess we have now.

I don't mind this trade.  I think the only way we can get parity in this league after so many teams have been neglected and abandoned is to allow MORE trading. 

My only issue is that if a trade "is close but needs slight adjustment", who are we to veto it?  Managers are doing what they feel best for their team.  And with so many teams that don't even show up for the draft, AFB is dangerously close to needing a reset; might as well allow people to trade to posture their teams how they want them postured. 

</end libertarian rant>
