News Flash: 2021 Season Update
« on: October 05, 2020, 03:57:21 AM »
GMs,

I have completed the 2021 updates for FGM.  Here is the information that you need to know as we enter the off-season.

--Players released will now have salary cap obligations go to 90%/60%/30%.  These percentages will remain in effect until after the MLB Trade Deadline.  When MLB announces that date, I will post it for all to see.

--The league excel sheet has been rolled over.  All your ProFSL rosters reflect all the players you have under contract for the 2021 season (with the exception of those teams who still have (P-2020)s that have not been extended).  I have dropped those (P-2020)s and will add them to your Fantrax and ProFSL rosters when they are extended.  I left the list on the Transactions Page as a point of reference. For those of you who still have (P-2020)s, you must use the 2020 Extension Values, which you can find at this link:  http://www.profsl.com/smf/index.php?topic=371965.0

--I have posted the 2022 salary caps on your ProFSL rosters.
 
--The 2021 Extension Contract Scale has been updated and posted in the Contracts section of our rules.  You can access the 2021 Extension Contract Values by clicking on Contracts at the top of the FGM pages.  Please remember that (P-2021) players should not be extended until the 2021 season begins if you want to take advantage of their last year of the their prospect contract.  Prospects contracts that are extended during the off-season will have the extensions take effect immediately, which is why you should wait until Opening Day or during the season to initiate an extension.  Please PM me if you want this further clarified..

--All teams can engage in trades from now until the MLB Trade Deadline.

--I have unlocked the Draft Room for those GMs with early picks who want to get a jump on things.  FYPD will formally begin on Sunday, November 1st at 9:00 am ET.  Remember, the 60 day moratorium begins for all FYPD draftees on the date they are drafted.  I recommend that all of you go through your MiLB rosters to see if the players you have are still "worth keeping" or need to be dropped to make room for new players.  Remember that in 2020, MLB had an abbreviated draft of only 5 rounds.  All 160 players who were drafted have signed by their respective MLB teams and I tried to go through the list to take out players who have not signed an MLB contract.  This was a tedious process, and the fall back for all of you is to check if the player you are interested in drafting is listed as a player of a given MLB team on Fantrax.  Any drafted player must be signed to an MLB contract or they cannot be drafted.  You must have open spots on your MiLB roster or indicated that you want your draftees added to your MLB rosters in order to participate in the FYPD.  Participation is not mandatory and you do not have to utilize all your draft picks.

--This year it looks like we only have one Type A Free Agent. If you believe I have not included someone that was on your team, please PM me.  Remember, that a Type A Free Agent must have been on your roster the entire season and cannot be someone you acquired in a trade during the season.  Since our season was abbreviated this year, this shouldn't really affect anyone.


--Free agency will start with CIs in January, 2021.  I will post a full schedule at a later date, but you can reference it on the FGM Home Page under Important Dates if you're interested.

--Finally, I am still in the process of updating all team histories.  I have fully completed some, and will continue to work on others in the coming weeks and months, depending on my research of the site for former owners/GMs.  Hopefully, you will all find the team histories entertaining.


Any questions?  Send me a PM or post a reply. :toth:

  • 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?
    Yesterday at 02:39:26 PM
  • Daddy: If you think its the AA guys send me a pm.
    Yesterday at 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.

  • 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 02:42:54 PM
  • Daddy: Agreed. But most does not equal all.
    Yesterday at 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
    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.
    Yesterday at 02:49:24 PM
  • Braves155: But I myself could use some time on a nudie island with some hot women
    Yesterday at 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.
    Yesterday at 04:33:51 PM
  • Brent: He had that view b/c of his father who was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.
    Yesterday at 04:35:28 PM
  • Daddy: Yes @Brent!! That is it exactly. Pitching is the house & it always wins in the end.
    Yesterday at 05:15:18 PM
  • Daddy: There shouldn't be many innings available in FA in dynasty fantasy leagues IMO. Thats guaranteed money! To hell with High A ball.
    Yesterday at 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.
    Yesterday at 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
    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
    Yesterday at 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.
    Yesterday at 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.
    Yesterday at 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 ;)
    Yesterday at 06:24:36 PM
  • Brent: I over value minors to a fault, but I am softening on that stance.
