Oh Captain My Captain- Jeter and Willingham Available
(Preview)
I'm not completely sure what I am doing with my teams yet, but Sewell is putting two cheap/decent veterans on the trade block because we have surpluses at their positions. Derek Jeter hit 256/304/313 and has about 700 APA. Last chance to own him if you never have! Josh Willingham hit 215/346/397 and...

Rotations
(Preview)
2014 Rotations for all teams are now posted at the site! Thanks to everyone for getting them in, and special thanks this year to Deputy Brasher who checked all of them for me as otherwise it would've been at least another week before they would get posted due to various work and family commitments.

Pitchers' Hitting Cards
(Preview)
Gary noticed that the files sent out by Eric have each pitcher's individual hitting card matched to them. Given our league rule of allowing unlimited PA for pitchers, my inclination is to rule that we undo that and allow only the basic strat pitcher-hitting cards. To do otherwise would create quit...

Commissioner, Deadlines, Etc
(Preview)
Just so that it doesn't get buried in an unrelated thread, anyone interested in my approach to deadlines, being Commissioner, etc, and potentially most importantly an opportunity to become ARBA commissioner should be sure to read the TWP/SHI Blockbuster thread.

Another SHI/TWP Blockbuster
(Preview)
Hoping to slightly improve the quality of their last player, Shiner pays TWP a lucky $13K to swap #1 waiver picks. I look forward to finding out that SHI would have ended up with the same player either way. Oh well, it's only $13K...of fake money.
