I'd have someone to take his team ASAP if needed.

I wish it was a little more competitive, I wouldn't even mind putting money or cards for winners. Anything to make a few of the teams try a little harder.

I'm not sure if making a mandatory buy in of some sort is the way to go. But it'd be nice to get some new blood in here for the teams that aren't too active anymore

Just let me know if you want to turn over his team, like I said I've got someone who would actually be active and contending

I know he tends to have a different strategy, but it feels like he hasn't taken any steps to try to improve his team this year. He's only made a handful of FA add this year and only 1 trade that came way back in February
Honestly it is very true i have not been as active as i should be between work and finishing up my degree it has been a lot.

That being said i would love to start being more active. If i can i would like to finish out this season and see how it goes (how active i can be, etc.). If i truly cant juggle everything ill bow out.

Also sorry any miss types im in a airport on my phone

Though thinking more in-depth on this, if someone who is more motivated and can do an amazing job bringing this team life wants to/will put the time into it im not opposed.

Wouldn’t want to lose anyone, but new owners are always fun since they like to create their own roster and make the league more active.

What do you guys think? I'm not opposed to giving Awz a bit more time to see if he can make things work. Only issue is the trade deadline is coming up, and after that passes, it's not super beneficial for any replacement owner to take over since they can't significantly shake up the team until after the season at that point

I'm looking to upgrade one of my SPs. I want to get my hands on someone who isn't a No. 5 starter if possible.

Willing to move a combo of 2-for-1, including one of my hitters. Brandon Nimmo is a younger player who I am making available for sure. Nimmo plus a SP is something I would like to do if anyone is listening.

The trade deadline isn't for a couple more weeks, but I'm still actively looking to move a few pieces. I have something for everyone:

- Rich Hill (is fully healthy now, is averaging 23.8 points per start over his last 3 starts)
- German Marquez (averaging 22.2 points per start over his last 5)
- Seranthony Dominguez (is the closer for a good Phillies team)
- Miles Mikolas (averaging 16.4 points per start this season)
- Jose Quintana (reliable arm on a good team)
- Yu Darvish (a total wildcard at this point, but he's not off limits)
- Most of my hitters (Justin Smoak, Daniel Murphy, Travis Shaw, Justin Upton, David Peralta, Carlos Gonzalez, Yasmani Grandal, Josh Donaldson, Evan Longoria)
- Some relievers (David Robertson, Alex Colome, Zach Britton, Chris Devenski)

Let me know. Thanks.

I don't know, if there's a new owner it's only fair to allow him time before the trade deadline. It'd be nice to see a non-lifeless team.

Any interest in talking Dominguez/Mikolas in a deal that doesn't involve Hiura yet?

Sounds good my man, thanks for participating thus far! I'll keep you first on the list if/when a team opens up in the future

Tex said he had someone that would be willing to step in. Tex, mind naming him and we can see what we think? Otherwise I can post a new thread with the team and see who's interested

He's a friend of mine, doesn't have a blowout account but I'm sure I could get him to create one. He's wanted to join a competitive league for some time now. Let me know what you guys think, I can probably have him up and running the league in no time. He's already said he'd be down to join the league.

Just let me know your thoughts

Thoughts, everyone? Not totally opposed, but was kinda hoping to have someone that was already on BO since we already have a few people that don't post much (or can't post at all)

If the new guy can be told that posting here and conversing are a part of the league I'm down with a newb. But just want someone we know will be active and reachable

I picked up 2 players this week. Both immediately left their games that same day and went on the DL...
