BtB's "Ball On A Budget" Fantasy League - Update - Get the Team Sheets Done Now !!!!!
It would be nice to get the WAR draft started as soon as possible, but we do not have enough people signed up to do all the team payrolls, yet alone sending them to me finished (thanks Zach). I will now open up the draft to all the alternates. Just let me know which team you want and get me data. Here is a link to thread for how to do the payrolls. I will begin adding them as I get them to this location. Finally, we still need 4 more managers to help run the league that do not have to do the payrolls, but will have to do a few posts. Let's get the data done so we can get drafting. I know Sky is just itching to get Jose Guillen.
Also, anyone can feel free to join now and select a team to research.
List of participants, teams selected and status after the jump.
25 teams taken with 25 completed.
Teams that still need to be taken and researched.

I'll get mine done...
….save for the arb guys.
Some of the young guys haven’t been officially signed for 2010 so those may be estimates.
Team Pick
I had previously asked for the Braves in the first comment, but since it seems to have been taken, maybe I’ll do the Rays?

I'm working on the Rays at the moment
I’m about halfway done…sorry

Jeff, what do we do about pre-arb guys?
Some will sign for the minimum, some might get raises, but they often aren’t announced or aren’t announced until closer to the season.
10% Rule
increase last years salary by 10%, right?
Correct.

I'm done with the Giants payroll,
and the only thing pending is Lincecum’s arbitration figure. Do you want me to send it to you know, or should I hold onto it until the hearing?
Put it half way in between and we will keep track as the case develops

I can manage a draft if you still need one
Don’t mind overseeing it and cranking out a post each month.
Let’s get those payrolls put together people! (Really, it doesn’t take all that long at all.)
Zach -- sounds goods
I have gotten a couple more.

this week
I am going to calculate who won last year. Didn’t someone have a spreadsheet going for a while?
Are you just doing Mark Ellis?
Pat Burrell had final rankings.

Here's the Marc Ellis spreadsheet
http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=0AsNxYLyw1Y_ScGRIRGJMZXJNSlpCR0I4M1ZNYUoxWHc&hl=en
Not sure when it was updated last. I know I went through and did a bunch sometime in August.
by Zach Sanders on Feb 9, 2010 12:17 AM EST up reply actions
Sorry I went AWOL for a while.
I can get cracking on the Nationals. I’m also happy to serve as a manager if someone will clarify the expectations for that.
main point would to set up some where for people to put data like the spreadsheet we used last year
and every month send out an email for people to update results. Then make a small post on the results.

What about performance bonuses?

I'll do the Astros...
I need to clear up some stuff on my schedule though, if you still have room.
Jeff - Salary Update
The Mets and Angel Pagan settled at 1.45M, a figure just south of the 1.54 midpoint I entered into the spreadsheet.

One more Mets update
I missed him because Cot’s doesn’t have him for some reason, but Fernando Tatis resigned with the Mets back in January. Don’t have it from an “official” source, but it was reported at $1.7M.

Busy weekend, but i think I can fit the rest of the Marlins on Friday evening, if that sounds good.

OK, looks like a few people are aiming for this weekend.
The first 12 people with lists back to me have been put together in a league and are starting to setup.

Hey Jeff: Salary Update for Lincecum
I’m sure you’ve heard by now, but Tim Lincecum signed a two-year contract extension. He will earn an $8 Million salary, and the contract comes with a $2 Million signing bonus.

There are ones that people said they would do, but haven't.
I need to see if they still are or have others do them. You can see them from the list above.

I compiled all the teams onto one sheet if anyone else is interested...
WARNING: I’m not taking responsibility if I f’d something up. Your only consolation is that I’m probably going to be screwed by it, too.
