Clowns, Sombreros Trade
The Clowns trade AJ Ramos (.05 17) to the Sombreros for Jose Peraza (.10 18x).
August 1st is a busy day and other reminders
Gentlemen -
A couple of quick reminders as we near the end of July.
August 1st is the CFCL trade deadline. Any trades must be completed by noon (Central Time), August 1st. In order for the trade to be legal and official both teams must report the trade to the Commissioner WITH associated moves to keep their rosters legal. It is not on the shoulders of the Commissioner or OnRoto Guru to chase down owners involved in a trade to get follow up moves in order to make the trade legal. If all components aren't reported by noon August 1st, the trade will not be allowed.
** Reminder on trades - Over the years we have had a flurry of trades toward the trade deadline. This year has seen a ton of activity already. Please keep in mind when offering deals and accepting offers, this league is different than on-line leagues. Owner Emeritus Mahlan worked very hard to create a culture of a "Gentleman's League" and honor and class. That wasn't always honored by owners and eventually they left the league.
When offering or accepting a trade, it's important to identify the equity of the deal. Making a lopsided deal may help your team, but it also dramatically impacts the other owners competing for advancement in the standings. There is a chance it could create bad feelings and animosity among owners if lopsided deals are consummated. There could be a view that an owner getting less in return could be giving up on the season. It could be viewed that the owner getting less in return is trying to determine the champion of the league by playing favorites. Any number of interpretations.
It is incumbent upon both owners involved in a trade to make sure there is equity in the deal and not focus on how bad he can screw the other owner involved in the trade. **
August 1st is also the day after the MLB trade deadline which means it's Interleague Free Agent Bid Day. This year August 1st is on a Tuesday, so by 3pm Tuesday August 1st all teams can make bids on ANY player listed in the player pool at OnRoto, whether that player came over in a recent Interleague trade or not. All rules apply on IFAB Day as a regular Sunday. You are limited to the remaining FAAB budget you have and any bids over .24 means the player musts be kept going into next year's draft.
