Beatniks on the Prowl Again

Showing they are not afraid of the Ruffins and, in fact, willing to do whatever is necessary to chase the Ruffins down, the Beatniks made a deal with the Revenge.

Beatniks trade Dee Gordon (.10 16!), Matt Holliday (.27 16+) and Arismendy Alcantara (.10 16x) to the Revenge, receiving in return Carlos Gonzalez (.37 17+), Daniel Murphy (.13 15) and Mike Foltynewicz (.08 17+).

Rebels are on the clock.

Interleague Free Agent Bid Day

Here is a quick recap of the 2015 Interleague Free Agent Bid Day (IFAB).

First, the verbage from the Constitution:


On the day immediately following the MLB Interleague Trading Deadline, the CFCL will hold a special sealed bid auction. Players who were traded from the American League to the National League on the day of the trading deadline, as well as any other free agents, are eligible to be bid upon on IFAB Day.

MLB's trade deadline is Friday, July 31st.  That means that our bidding takes place on Saturday, August 1st.  ALL Free Agents are eligible to be bid on - anyone in the Free Agent Pool - not just players having been traded from the AL.

Any bids .25 or over will require that team to keep the player going into the 2016 season.  Bidding on August 1st will close at 3pm.  Unless you hear otherwise, the bidding is the same as every week - via OnRoto.

Questions?  Check the Constitution or e-mail the Commissioner.

Clowns - Beatniks Trade

Fresh off a 4000 mile bike ride and not wanting to take the Ruffins charge lying down, the Beatniks traded with the Clowns who are proving to be an equal championship run opportunity trader.

The Clowns sent Andrelton Simmons (.10 15!) to the Beretheads for Julio Teheran (.02 15).

Five days, one and a half hours remain in the trade deadline.
