To be fair to Hank, McGuire was a full blown reliever at the time who either didn't have a third pitch or had one that was 10 or less potential across the league scout wise

He's definitely active. He's already downloaded today's file and exported. He's been exporting regularly this offseason.
What probably happened was he forgot or didn't know about Rule 5 because he hasn't been on the boards in 5 days since the 25th.

Re: 2057 Season Thread.... Eff Yo Curse, Shock the World
While true that he was a reliever, I still don't get how I got him at pick #16. He was easily #1 on my Rule 5 Draft List.DRWebs wrote:To be fair to Hank, McGuire was a full blown reliever at the time who either didn't have a third pitch or had one that was 10 or less potential across the league scout wise
Re: 2057 Season Thread.... Eff Yo Curse, Shock the World
ill prolly be sending a body back. dnt get the point of "or" if it still picks both
Re: 2057 Season Thread.... Eff Yo Curse, Shock the World
b/c if probably copied your list to all rounds. So in round 1 it took X or Y. then rounds 2 it had the same thing so it took the other.nick wrote:ill prolly be sending a body back. dnt get the point of "or" if it still picks both

Because he hadn't pitched above A ball and 80/50/80 potential relievers aren't that sexy?shel311 wrote:While true that he was a reliever, I still don't get how I got him at pick #16.

Re: 2057 Season Thread.... Eff Yo Curse, Shock the World
I guess we'll just credit my scout with the great find as he was still a great pick up even when I thought he was just a reliever.DRWebs wrote:Because he hadn't pitched above A ball and 80/50/80 potential relievers aren't that sexy?shel311 wrote:While true that he was a reliever, I still don't get how I got him at pick #16.

You get multiple notifications about the Rule 5 in game. Pretty hard to miss. I also lost 4 or 5 guys but honestly don't really care about any of them. #Scoutsshel311 wrote:He's definitely active. He's already downloaded today's file and exported. He's been exporting regularly this offseason.

Rhode Island is really active and chats with me quite a bit. He wrote me this morning and said he was on vacation this weekend and just completely forgot about Rule 5. It happens but he’s good to go

Think this is the 3rd year in a row I couldn't actively participate in FA. Makes things very boring with all the waiting around on you guys.

Right?

Of course, it's not out of the question I could just blow this team up. Only thing stopping me is STC's lack of pitching.

At least you have a competitive team though! I'm sitting here watching everyone leave mine in FA and unable to make offers. I should just start trading guys but that would probably make it even more boring.

Granted your pitching isn't as good as Billy's though.

Re: 2057 Season Thread.... Eff Yo Curse, Shock the World
We could always talk about how Sheltown just capped off the most dominant postseason in the history of the NDL. First team to ever lose only 1 game in the postseason.
That's a discussion to have!!!
