FREE AGENT BIDDING NOW OPEN! - Initial Bids due - Monday, 6/17 @ 10am EST

FAs can be found under the “Free Agents” tab.

A couple of reminders:
● Each team may submit a maximum of 30 bids per round.
● The top-three teams will be allowed to re-bid.
● Please submit in this format – 2yrs/$1/$2
● $0 bids are allowed, but will be ignored if a player receives any monetary bids.
● Each team will be allowed to rescind up to three bids after the first round. Be mindful when you are bidding, as other owners can rescind bids on players and you could end up with them.
● Please keep an eye out for the tendered player - 1st Round Tender - Dizzy Dean @ 1yr/$24/$24. If you’d like to bid on him, please consult the tender rules before doing so.
● Any player won in FA (including $0 contracts) will be ineligible to be traded or dropped until Day 60 of the regular season.
● De-escalating bids are allowed. You can start high with the 1st years of bidding, then de-escalate the bidding by year. An example contract would be 4yrs/$10/-2/$28. 1st year would be $10, 2nd year $8, 3rd year $6, and 4th year $4, equaling $28. Let me know if you have any questions around this type of bidding.

Send your bids to me in a clearly-marked message. I have sent my bids to the vice commish already. I have included rebidding contingencies in my initial bids (e.g. if I’m in 2nd for this guy, up the contract to X), but will not take part in any active bidding.

Deadline to get your initial bids in is Monday, 6/17 @ 10am EST.

Let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!

6/15/20244 Openings in Gus's AYLGusPC13
4 openings in the very unique "All Yankees League". You don't have to like the Yankees to join. I don't like them at all and I'm the Commish!! League is made up of players who played for the Yanks from 1961 to the present, divided up into teams based on who else they played for during their career, plus some of the all-time greats from the past. There are also 2 Yankee teams with players who played exclusively for the Yanks. The Astros, Mets, Angels and Jays are available. No contracts/progressions. New players join the league every time the Yanks make a deal or sign a Free Agent, which happens a lot! A few twists to keep things interesting. Come check it out. Preparing for Season 23 so a great time to join.
