  • I'm unavailable and unable to update the website until December 11. I won't be able to assign any orphan teams during that time. All should be set up to allow for trades over the next 2 1/2 weeks to get to December 10. Happy Thanksgiving!

  • Lots of changes and updates as we move on to the 2024 season!
    • Salary cap cash has been distributed.  The 2024 salary cap is 40575 (was 41833 in 40735).
    • Cash rewards for playoff performance will be distributed on Wednesday
    • 2024 salaries are posted and are final - Premium salary adjustments have already been applied
    • 2024 player positions are updated but not final
      • Any player showing an "x" in their position didn't have any MLB stats in 2023, so I need to go back in and check what they did in the minors in 2023 (or maybe they didn't play at all and might be removed from the list) - their positions may change.
      • That usually takes a lot of time and will be finished sometime late December/early January
    • Player retention decisions for 2024 can now be made from your team roster pages.  Deadline to complete this is expected to be Sunday, January 7 - if you have a lot of teams, don't wait!!
    • First step before you can do any trading or pick your carryover players - indicate if you're keeping each of your teams in 2024.  You must answer "yes" before you may submit any trades or before anyone can contact you for trades.  Deadline is December 31 or we assume the unanswered teams become Orphans.
  • New leagues for 2024 will be opened in late December.
  • As people indicate they're dropping teams, orphans will become available.
  • Trades are now open for a 3-week trading period, ending on Sunday, Dec. 10.  Following that will be another 3-week trade period open through December 31.

11/19/23

  • Team finances updated with cash awards on final division placement. Post season rewards are added after the salary cap is calculated.
  • Player salaries for 2024 are final (but not yet posted) - working today on salary cap and positions and will open up the rosters when all that is complete (maybe tonight, but definitely by tomorrow).

    • Chicago (Anchorman) has a BWB Power Index of 276 which is the lowest-ranked team to make the Bash quarterfinals.

  • Hello! My intention was to run the final 3 rounds of the Benchwarmer Bash to wrap up at the same time as the World Series (if it went for 7 games).  When the Rangers finished it off in Game 5, I took a day off and unintentionally that's turned into a week. I'm out tonight but plan to get the Bash started again on Thursday and wrap up by Saturday or Sunday.
  • Other schedule things as we move into the offseason (subject to change):
    • I'll start work on 2024 salaries and positions later this week - with the goal of being ready to post this weekend.
    • Once the salaries and positions are updated, I'll unfreeze the rosters and you can begin work on trades and carryovers.
    • First offseason trade deadline - Dec. 10
    • Second (and last) offseason trade deadline - Dec. 31
    • Roster carryover/cut selections deadline - Jan. 7

10/6/23

  • The Week 26 transaction/lineup deadline may get moved back further, depending on how long it takes me to set up playoff brackets/schedules, but currently I have reset it to Wednesday night, Oct 11 at midnight Eastern.
    • The only transactions allowed this week are cuts and IR moves.
    • Your lineups need to be legal - if by putting players with salary under 250 in your lineup you end up with too many taxi squad players, you'll need to cut the extra ones (or I'll have to move players under 250 back to the minors for you).
  • The Week 26 deadline coming up is the FINAL chance to cut players before the winter transactions. Any player you have under contract for 2024 and beyond must be kept on your roster as part of your 28 carryover players in January. You can cut them after the Redistribution Draft, but you have to hold onto them until that point. This is the final chance to cut those players or you keep them until February.  (You can also try to trade them in November/December before the carryover deadline, but this is the last chance to do it on your own).
