Name: David Greenblatt
Everyone welcome David. He would like to join our league.
I wanted to leave this open for anyone to ask questions orior to his joining. As the league has discussed, we wanna make sure we get someone that has experience and will be with us for a long time.
He has experience with PB but not so much with salaries. David, feel free to tell us about yourself.
I would like David to also open with 1. A short explanation of his plans for the team (just simple thoughts, you dont have to give us full details) and i would like 2. an evaluation of the KC Royals, the team he will be taking over.
Thanks, Taylor

That’s cool my questions r how experience does he have in leagues like ours? It’s a difficult league to understand at 1st and he’s coming in in the middle of the season he’s got a big challenge ahead of him. Lastly, how much experience he have in fantasy baseball? I’m not trying to b mean just I love this league and I want all of us to take it seriously that’s all

Seems that way.
Struggling to find someone. Everyone thinks its too in depth. But KC isnt in playoff contention. So we arent in a HUGE rush.. But it would be nice to find someone sooner than later

Ok let me take a sec to examine the roster. I'm 31 years old been playing since around age 15 but not seriously until about 8 years ago. If I can pull up that picture I will give you my guys analysis of the team. I remmember it has a lot of origina Royals from when I imagined the league started so I saw Hosmer, Perez etc but let me take a look again.

Well basically I most likely plan to rebuild having seen Tanaka and Gio's contract expiring should give me some room. Not sure at what pace I plan to rebuild because I havent compared my team to others yet tho I can see my major league roster is a tad week for a 16 team league. I see a few pitchers with high upside in my milb like Whitley Keller and Aiken. If Hosmer doesnt start to hit I may have to trade him as well because he's not delivering like a 20 dollar player. Super stoked to have Yelich and that decent contract and hoping I will have the money to resign Corbin. Im gonna need help learning all the intricacies of the arbitration and the way contracts work etc but ill be active on the chat and certainly stoked to havethis oppurtunity if you let me join. Guys like Bogaerts, Yelich and Corbin make me optimistic. Esp since Yelich is locked up at a decent price. I will be looking to resign Bogaerts as well. Cant do much better than 50 cents for Markakis so if Im not in contention which it looks like I"m not he could make for a great haul at the deadline. So mainly I plan to rebuild at first glance but I forget its a 16 team league not 10 so I see I have some decent talent.

This is a little confusing thus far but once I get my ESPN roster if I pass the clearance and you guys are on here to explain the extras I'll do just fine.

Yeah though the team doesnt have any superstars unless you consider Bogaerts and Yelich superstars though neither are top 16 dynasty players except maybe Yelich but all in all this looks like a competitive team so it may be tricky how I decide to go about competing or rebuilding. I cant see any weeknesses in the starting lineup whatsoever except maybe Hosmer falling short of a top 16 player esp since hes my most expensive player.

He was a fringe playoff team every year. Never quite could crack playoffs and the 1 year he did, he was bounced in the 1st round. Look around the rules. Its very complex. Ask questions if you need. A few things to clarify.. Its a 12 team league. If you looks at sheets, youll see your salary next year, currently. Arbitration is real life arbitration. So the salary gets filled in as they settle the cases or agree to contracts in real life.

Myself, Slade, and Nick agreed that we were going to deny Grant at this time.
We will continue looking for an owner for KC.
Totally open to hearing members thoughts on his blan (my opinion) analysis.

Putting it as simple as possible, we think we can do better. And without KC being any kind of playoff threat, why rush to fill the slot.
