2022 ESL Summary
Drew Gallagher, 10/
21/22
Sorry that this end of year write up has taken me a little while, but it took me that long to count Chris' number of ESL championships. Based upon my math, it appears that Chris won his 20th ESL championship in 2022!!!!! For perspective, twenty years is almost older than Blair and Zap! The ESL has been in existence for 38 years (I cannot imagine there are many leagues in the world that have been operating continuously as long as we have) and Chris has won more than half of the titles. But I think the bigger take away from the 2022 season is that the league existed for 36 years before the Base Robbers/Reservoir Dogs ever cashed. I understand that Robbie took a few years off in those 36 years, but he cashed with fifth place last year and now has gone back to back with a fourth place finish this year. That, my friends, is perseverance.

The Perkolators have already told me he will not be back for 2023, but I dismiss that little bit of silliness each offseason.

Chris has updated the rosters so you can see what fine keepers you have for 2023. We'll let you know the draft weekend as soon as we get Zap's schedule for 2023 to make certain he will be unable to attend in person.
 

2023 DRAFT DATE:
Friday, March 24th, 2023
5:30PM


DRAFT LOCATION:
Ellen Gallagher's house...
31 Pine Woods Court
Reading, PA 19607

Since some of you
forget every year:

You must draft
26 players for $290
(2) C, 1B, 1/3, 3B, 2B, 2/S,
SS, IF, (5) OF, DH, U, (10) P

If he hadn't been trying to bid me up, he wouldn't have gotten stuck with a $14 Jose Contreras.

ESL ROSTER FREEZE:
Saturday, March 18th, 2022
NOON

You may retain up to 16 players.  You must also note any contract extensions at that time.  You must also note any rookies that you will retain on reserve.  You may submit your freeze list early - you can change it as many times as you like up until the dead-line. However, once you submit your list, you may no longer make any trades until after the draft.

Dale had 1 beer and then spent $46 on Jose Reyes.

 
Rick went back to Virginia with a $29 K-Rod, and a $26 Corey Hart...and a $20 Jason Bartlett?

ESL TRADING RULES:

Between Draft Day and noon on August 31st, teams may accept only TWO "asterisk" players total and those must be from different teams.  On the flip-side, a team may trade AWAY as many "asterisk" players as they like (but no two "asterisk" players to the same team.)  "Asterisk" players are any players auction drafted for $20 or over, any players FAAB drafted for $60 or over, players of any salary in the final year of their contract, and players traded to the A.L.

 
Each team is allowed one "asterisk for asterisk" trade during the season. The trade is only one asterisk for one asterisk and other players cannot be involved in the trade. This trade can be utilized at any point in the season up until the trade deadline. The intent of the rule is to allow fair trades. Again, it is simply one asterisk player for one asterisk player. It is not two or three asterisks for two or three asterisks and no other players (or rookies) can be included in the trade.  This trade does not count against a team�s limit of two asterisk trades. However, you may not make two trades involving asterisk players within 30 days.  In other words, if you make your asterisk-for-asterisk trade with 1 team, you made not make one of your two asterisk-dump-trades with that same team unless you first wait 30 days. Friday after the All-Star Game, 12:01 p.m. thru noon August 31st:  Restricted trading, you may trade with any team +/- 5 points in the standings (based on the most up to date standings on the front page of the All-Star Stats web-site.  "Live" standings will not count, as there will be no way to verify it later.)  Also during this period, teams with less than 40 points and not in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th place will also be able to continue trading with each other.  The asterisk rules will apply during this period.

Between 12:01 p.m. on August 31st thru the end of the regular season:
  NO trading what-so-ever.
