  • Next Season Update

    Because I did promise one.

    We're waiting on our newest owner(s) to get settled in before starting. I need to fix/update/adjust a couple files I probably should have done during the break but put off for what amounts to no real reason. I'm kind of going through some stuff right now, but quite honestly, CSBC is something I can easily do and might actually help distract me from some of what's happening.

    Don't worry, don't ask about it.

    It's that time of year again, though, where if anyone is interested in playing or has reliable, cool, non-crazy (well, maybe a little) friends who might like to play. Lemme know. Same rules apply, they should be active posters on SFM and not just here for CSBC. This is mostly thanks to Festa and crew for letting us have the space here to begin with, but it also helps keep people easy to contact.

    The following teams need owners:

    New York
    Honolulu
    Portland
    San Francisco

    Depending on what happens with that, we can do my "offseason surprise" that I promised, too. I mean, either way it's happening, just an influx of owners would have an effect on it.

    I will start typing up award voting shortly (sometime this afternoon) and we can finish that by mid-week, more than likely. Then it's Arbitration, FA and so on and so forth.

    Good news, bad news. The good news is that we will be bringing in a new owner for CSBC, the bad news is that we've lost another.

    At present

    New York
    Honolulu
    Portland
    San Francisco
    Chicago

    Are all missing owners and one of those teams will be recovered.

    This still means that we are going to likely contract and realign divisions. As such, I need a list of volunteers from the TL to go to the BL.

        I volunteer to remain in the BL. Just want to help as much as I can
        You know what the difference between Jeremy Lin and Tim Tebow is?... Jeremy Lin is probably a good Quarter Back.

          Suggestions, comments, ideas and such are all welcome, btw

          I already have something planned, obviously, but I'm always interested in new looks

            The new league file will be updated by the end of the hour.

            Reflected will be the award winners and we'll be a week out of arbitration.

            After arbitration but before Free Agency, here is what I'll do (the surprise offseason move)

            In order of teams with worst record to best, I will allow owners to take over a vacant team if they desire. That is to say, they will relinquish control of their current team and get a new one. And this will work up the line all the way to, I guess the World Series winners (myself). Obviously, this would require going through the line twice, so yeah.

            After that, we'll go through Free Agency, players will declare and such and the remaining players on teams that are to be contracted will be drafted by the remaining teams. I will realign divisions around this time and everything should be right back on track.

            *Addendum, our new owner, Ray Finkle, will still have first choice of our open teams and if we get new owners between here and there, they will, too

                    It's a good year to have the #1 pick.

                      Any thought into not having a contraction draft, and instead, dumping the players into the diluted free agency class?

                        That wouldn't be very fair.

                              Nope, FAs from the teams will go into FA, but otherwise, no. That's 4 or so teams worth of FAs with 4 fewer teams bidding on them. This gets the talent where it needs to go, the bottom up.

                              Also, like Mainge alluded, it wouldn't be very fair, I have like 40M coming off the books and just won a WS.
