My main strategy: don't drink too much at the beach today

Last year was my first year not finishing in the money. Hope to get back to my old ways this year.

No strategy change for me.. other then to stop drafting players that get hurt.

my positions available if you need them are 3B ( Sano/Rendon), 2B ( Cano/LaMahieu) and I have 6 closers....I'm open to a 2 for 1 ( 2 of mine for a better one of yours) or just a straight up trade as well

Looking for a stud SP or top 3 catcher

Is there any rule about including waiver dollars in trades?

I believe we have allowed that in the past. Commish will just need to go in and manually adjust

Yep exactly. Waivers just processed for the day.

By the day, my roster construction was awful, so I am selling 2B and 3B for those in need. Looking to acquire pitching and 1B.

Also, I will try to get some post-draft write-ups done before Opening Day. I do not expect to have much (or any) time the next two days.

ESPNs projected standings hate my team, but i accomplished my main goals

-target big boppers who may be discounted in avg. formats but carry more value here (Gallo, Schwarber, Gattis, etc)

-Grab an ace and pay down for the rest of my staff. Grabbed 4 RP who are in battles for the closer role... at a bit of a discount.

-most importantly DO NOT LEAVE ANY MONEY ON THE TABLE THIS YEAR. Learned my lesson here. Shout out to whoever was pushing me on Hoskins. I ended up pay 10$+ more than my value on him. In the past i would have probably bowed out, and ended up leaving 8-10 on the table anyway.

It was in the draft room. Don't think it's accessible after the draft

I got stuck with this (again). Thought I'd be getting Zimmer at the end for $5, speed seemed even more expensive than usual.

I don't see how you guys ever have money.

Altuve was too cheap. Next thing I know, I have Betts and Arenado.

I forgot to do a screen grab of the projected standings based on the draft.

Yeah I had to overpay for Deshields $11 and Zimmer $6 because I had money left near the end of the draft and needed speed.
