Official Keepers Deadline & Declaration thread

[Hitman23]

Subject to change:

[10] CJ Wilson - 2nd keep
[16] Andrew McCutchen - last keep
[18] Logan Morrison - 2nd keep
[19] Madison Bumgarner -2nd keep
[19] Mike Minor - 1st keep

[The rounds might change depending on who I drop]

----------------------------------------------------------------
Minors:
Jesus Montero, C
Anthony Rizzo, 1B
Bryce Harper, OF
Arodys Vizcaino, SP
Jake Odorizzi, SP

You need to let me know who you want in round 19 & 18 with Minor and Bumgarner. Also, Minor is on his second keep. Sax kept him last year and you traded for him so the keep follows him. That also bumps Morrison up a round to 17, or you can choose to put Bumgarner or Minor at 17. Either way, let me know.

[Hitman23]

Pending the conclusion of the Marauders trade:

Major League Keepers
[16] John Axford - 2nd Keep
[18] Jose Altuve - 1st Keep
[19] Wilson Ramos - 1st Keep
[20] Paul Goldschmidt - 1st Keep
[21] Matt Harrison - 1st Keep

Minor League Keepers
Jurickson Profar
Eric Surkamp
Julio Teheran
Joseph Wieland

Be seeing you,

Saxmania

Harrison was acquired via trade, and was acquired via FA by the previous owner which means he is available in round 20 or sooner. This bumps up 4 of your players. Let me know what you want to do.

[Hitman23]

All contracts have been updated on your team page with round and times kept. These numbers are for 2012 now. (Except for the posts above which need to be clarified)

My apologies - Goldschmidt was in my minor leagues before I promoted him, so can I swap his round [20] with Harrison's [21]?

There's a little bit of confusion here for me, as Goldschmidt was in my minor leagues, but was added as a minor league free agent during the season, rather than from the draft. Does that impact whether I can keep him in round 21?

Be seeing you,

Sorry I know this is a couple of hours late but I had to bury my father today and have not had a chance to update this. I hope at least that's worth 2 hours.

Nelson Cruz - 15 2nd keep
JP Arecibia - 21 1st keep
Ben Zobrist - 16 3rd keep
Mike Stanton - 17 2nd keep
Ivan Nova - 11 1st keep

All 5 minors keepers will be kept.

[JDPNYY]

Four Teams with no keepers... It's a good year to be a solo expansion team.

FYI

Port City Yanks Roster wasn't dumped, still has players listed as active..

Yes, sorry. I meant to change that when I finalized my keepers, but forgot.

Bumgarner in 19, Minor in 18, LoMo in 17.

Yeah, I made an error with the keeps, but that's not really relevant. So yes, he has 2 keeps left including this year.

Terribly sorry to hear that man. My condolences.

[JDPNYY]

I had to bury my father today.

Very sorry to hear this Mike. My thoughts are with your family.

[The FUTURE]

How about minors? Do you keep your mL players if you declared them properly, but didn't declare your ML keepers properly? I can see 3 people with bad ML lists but OK mL lists.

Funny you can see 3 mistakes from other teams but you posted one yourself. Ackley has way over 130 AB's last season...I didn't even need to check his stats to spot that...but I did just to make sure...333 AB's last season...like common people.


50 IP's....130 AB's....if they are over that for their career they can't be kept in as a damn mL !!!


that's why I PM'ed you the other day cause I was shocked to not see Ackley on your major league keeper list.

sorry to hear that...may he rest in peace

[The FUTURE]

and a couple more mistakes I see....

BSB: Emilio Bonafacio 21st round. Should be 20th as a FA pickup last year.
ALigers: David Robertson 21st round. Should be 20th as a FA pickup last year.
Lumberjacks: Dayan Viciedo as a mL keeper; too many career AB's.

Dude I am so sorry.

Due to the circumstances you obviously get your keepers. There is no argument here and I will override and use executive power on this. However due to the extension I must allow the other teams that did not get them in last night the same courtesy so you got until midnight tonight.

Thanks man. I was updating contracts and slotting keepers into the draft last night. Once done I was going to do extensive research on all the players and have them fixed. Since I was gone for a few days I could not do it prior.

I will address these issues asap. I have to work tonight from 5 pm overnight. I will try to crunch what I can into the next few hours.

That's the right call, obviously.

Does the extension include my stupid Ackley mistake? If so, I'll keep him in Round 20, instead of Murphy. And I'm keeping no minor leaguers.

That will work. I will make it so.

edit: fixed

I'll allow it. Obviously no rule can be made to benefit one person in the league it has to be extended to everyone so yes you're okay.

fixed. thank you. He must have checked off keepers. I was so worried about the teams that didn't I didn't look at his

[YanksForLife]

Yeah, I did that when I first got the team and never unchecked them when I found out I technically had no roster. Sorry.

[Hitman23]

No worries. Those guys are still available to you.

Wait until tomorrow to start declaring however. You are also getting another 24 hours extended to your keeper date. 3/9 is your deadline now.

[Hitman23]

Bonifacio is fixed.

Robertson I slotted in round 19. John, you have until midnight to decide if you want him at 19 or if you want to swap him with Francoeur at 20.

Viciedo either needs to be dropped or subbed in for another keeper. This is still pending.

[YanksForLife]

OK, Thanks. Will it be the first keep for players I pickup or will I need to research previous keeps?

[Hitman23]

Yes, sorry. I meant to change that when I finalized my keepers, but forgot.

Bumgarner in 19, Minor in 18, LoMo in 17.

Yeah, I made an error with the keeps, but that's not really relevant. So yes, he has 2 keeps left including this year.

Fixed thank you!

[Hitman23]

Keeps follow players. So if they were kept last year you get the same contract. Look at the draft from last year, if the player has an asterisk and says "keeper" he was kept and you inherit his contract.
