This is temporarily on hold. No auction will be allowed to be started until further notice.

I will make a final decision on this later today. I have to leave to go watch my boy play now.
But my initial thinking is that this move is really detrimental to the future of the team. Harper unlike the others that were cut is a Top 10 fantasy player and still holds a lot of trade value. Even at his contract value trading him could have brought a good return. Although there is nothing written in the rules against this, I believe it is not good for the league and especially not good for the team! And those are the 2 things that I will always try to protect the most.
So for now this will stay on hold and I will be back later to make a final decision. The other auctions will go on.
If you want to share your concerns on this, I would like to hear them. In the end this is all of our league, so I will listen to everyone. Please PM me with your concerns if you have any. I will weigh everything when I get back later and make a final decision.
If Waky would like to weigh in this on this with his reasons, I would like to hear that too and will definitely take that into account.

Made the decision last night. After the only trade talk I had feel through.. Told myself if nothing in the inbox. Cut. Wasn't and I did. Would do the same in the morning. No sour grapes wish no one bad. Just replace me as I told Nate.

Didn't see that he was posted as being on the trade block (or I missed it somehow). Might have been a few more messages in your inbox if he was advertised as available. Hard to believe someone wouldn't offer something for him, especially if you ate some or all of the salary this year. Not trying to create a stir, but was surprised is all.

Hey Wakey - sorry did not see Harper on a trade block as I certainly would have pinged you. Hell I have Avisail Garcia in my starting line-up so certainly could have used his bat!! haha
Prefer not to lose ya Wakey as I am always trying to figure out how to finish above your teams!!
Let's get it figured out that works for everyone and move forward.

I really don`t see why he`s cutting him. I`m paying his salary this year so he`d only be on the hook for 1 yr which I`m sure could be negotiated down.

Beantown I don`t think so. Doesn't show on roster. It was a straight up trade no salary paid.

I didn`t check the archives. I just assumed with that contract I paid it down. Sorry man, my bad.

Not as sorry as I am. I thought I had put a trade block up and apparently I didn't enter it or it didnt take. I should have checked it. But started talking trade with Nate on one of his block guys. We couldn't agree so I waited. Didn't look until I saw Gashouse post. So if we have a GM of the year. Then I nominate myself for dumba** GM of the year.

After reading the posts here + a couple PM's and a couple more texts & Slack messages I have decided to put Harper back on Waky's roster. It does sound like there was some sort of misunderstanding that went on. I did not receive any messages from anyone in opposition so I think this is an easy decision. Thank you to everyone who weighed in. Waky - Replacing you did not even cross my mind! I know you too well and know you are a good manager. We can all just use this as a reminder that if you are thinking about punting a guy it never hurts to throw out a trade ad even if it just says FREE on it. You never know! At the very least you might be able to save the future cap hits. Anyway, back to business as usual. Harper will be placed back on Waky's roster. The others will not! So feel free to start bombarding him with your crazy Harper offers!!
