Re: Recent BOA-KCA trade
This trade was reviewed by a committee appointed by me and although it was not believed to be a 50-50 trade, it is believed that both teams believed they made moves they thought they had to in order to address weaknesses, so this trade will stand as-is. Both teams may resume trading. |

Re: AAA Draft is now open and timed
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýBecause the timing was done with ranges instead of just deadlines. ?You can only draft between 16:00 and 18:00. Your auto draft will fire at the first time you¡¯re eligible.? Ken, I am assuming that is a mistake and it should be rescheduled with deadlines only. ?I guess it wouldn¡¯t be a mistake if it was a Strat draft bug. But using ranges will keep us from ever getting ahead. Joe On Feb 8, 2025, at 2:55?PM, Jay Linsley via groups.io <jlinsley830@...> wrote:

Recent BOA-KCA trade
This trade has been protested for not being a fair trade. These two teams please hold off on further trades until this is decided upon. I will be appointing a trade-committee to review.
?
Keep in mind that not all trades are going to be totally equal. Usually, one team comes out with a better deal. What matters though is that both teams should have a reason for making a trade that would lead to them to being a better team either now or for the future.? |

Where are the Rays going?
Help me decide. Stuck in the middle of 'should I contend', or should I build'. Here are some pieces I can make available where hopefully someone makes an offer that can make me go in a certain direction.
?
WIN-NOW guys
Nolan Arenado - 3B-1e10 once again and good for 685 PA with some pop
Zack Wheeler - no into needed. Good for 220 IP.
Corey Seager - SS-3e10 tons of power, good for 580 PA
Joe Ryan - Here's a win-now guy and a win-later guy, offer appropriately.
?
WIN-LATER guys
Brayan Bello, Spencer Arrighetti, Wilyer Abreu, Tristan Casas. Note that none of these are too terrible for this year, but I feel there real value is still in the future.
?
Also have some AAA players I'd consider moving for current value in Ronny Mauricio, Curtis Mead, Alex Thomas, and Michael Kopech.
?
Make offers, make a deal.

Re: AAA Draft is now open and timed
At this moment, it looks like the Strat Draft is currently down. Murphy's Law, of course, as our draft begins officially this morning. I'll keep everyone posted if this changes.
?
This will NOT STOP THE DRAFT. Use the GS tabs In Draft?to see players/stats available.
?
Here is today's schedule. When you are ready to draft, try using the site. If it is still down, email your pick by responding to ALL using this email and listing your team/pick. I will update the GS rosters and the In Draft tabs showing available players.
?
17. 10:00am - San Francisco
18. 12:00pm - Kansas City
19. 02:00pm - Pittsburgh
20. 04:00pm - Houston?
21. 06:00pm - Toronto
22. 08:00pm - Baltimore
23: 10:00pm - Seattle
24: 10:00am - Tampa Bay

AAA Draft is now open and timed
San Francisco is up (Mike Turpin). Picks will be scheduled from 10:00am EST to 10:00pm EST daily. They will be rescheduled on a daily basis. This will guarantee at least seven picks a day. I'm sure we'll get more than that. Once we get past the first couple of rounds, picks will be hourly. |
|
Day #2 of the AAA Draft (un-timed)
We got through the first 9 picks yesterday, not too bad. Hopefully, we can get through the rest of the first-round before hitting timed mode tomorrow.?
?
Detroit (Rob Stricker) is currently up, followed by Toronto (Thomas Treece), and Cincinnati (Doug Winslow). Once I start the clock, the first several days will be at a slow pace. As we get into the mid and later rounds, the time between picks will decrease.
?
Happy Drafting |

The numbers I boldfaced are incorrect. They should be 19 instead of 17, and 55 instead of 50, as shown on SD to be eligible to play in games.
?
Just reminding everyone the Pitchers in Draft and Batters in Draft tabs on the GS may help you some in player comparisons. I have also added WAR values (no negative ones) for reference. As I enter players onto your rosters from the draft, they will drop off the In Draft tabs. |

Welcome to the 2025 AAA Draft
The draft is now open, and Yamamoto is the first guy off the board heading to the Chi-Sox. Good luck to everyone and remember that we are untimed until Saturday morning (unless someone advertises their pick for sale). Things to keep in mind when drafting.
?
1) We have 23 rounds in the draft, so barring trades that leaves us all with a 35-man major league roster of guys that can participate in games. Be smart with your drafting.
2) If you make uneven trades, you may wind up with more or less than the 35-man roster.
3) Note that over usage penalties can be harsh, so draft enough usage.
4) Batters .600 OPS and lower are unlimited, and pitchers with ERA of 6.00 or higher are unlimited also. It may be beneficial in the long run to utilize some of these players.
5) Any player is draftable, but not necessarily eligible to play. Be careful. To be eligible to play a pitcher needs 20 IP after the factor (17 on SD) and batters need 60 PA after factor (50 PA actual). Keep in mind SD does NOT show PA, only AB.
6) Any player who is not currently showing available, but should have been, is not draftable this year.
?
Hopefully, all available players are correct. Holliday was showing available this morning and was quickly fixed after being drafted. I will try to keep on top of things as we progress but will make decisions on gray areas with eligibility as we go.
?
Good luck to all and happy drafting.

Re: AAA Draft
REMINDER: The draft officially starts Saturday 2/8. I will open the draft Thursday morning on an untimed basis. However, if you send out any email regarding trading your pick, you will be put on a 4-hour limit. The clock will be in effect from 10:00 am EST to 10:00 pm EST. So, for example, someone advertises at 11:00 am stating their 1st round pick is available in a trade. That manager will have until 3:00 pm to make their pick or trade it. Yes, we all HATE when managers do this.
?
The SD Site should be accurate as far as available players. Once the draft starts Thursday, the available players are LOCKED. We will not be waiting for the game file to come out. |

AAA Update
Strat Draft's conversion program left a lot to be desired this year. I have literally done at least 100 corrections based on emails from managers in my leagues. PLEASE VERIFY YOUR ROSTERS. Our draft is scheduled for Saturday, 2/8. I'm going to let the draft begin untimed a little earlier, probably Thursday, 2/6. If there are any players missing from your rosters in Strat Draft, you must report it PRIOR to the draft starting (2/6). The same goes for any players that may be missing from the draft. Once the draft begins, the player pool is locked.
?
There are also several reports of players showing up multiple times on their rosters, as well as players missing from the bottom of the My Competition screen which displays YTD stats.
?
I'm going to try to keep rosters and stats current on the GS, so please let me know if you see any discrepancies there as well.?
?
