I'm loving the state of my team, but the league seems a little sluggish. Are we waiting to make moves? Are we the type of league that doesn't trade much during the season? What are we?
I'd like to do some spec swaps in the next couple weeks. It would be fun--and each time I check into fantasybaseball.boards, I get a little sad at the lack of trades being posted. It looks like only about half the league checks in daily...sadface.
So, if you like a spec on my squad, hit me up. I'll swap for pitching specs the easiest. I've got LOTS of MI specs.

We've never been the most active league in the world, but hopefully it's people being content with where they are and not lack of participation. I know I look at my roster and don't see too many trade options.

I started a new job about 2 months ago. I've been really working hard to make a good impression.
Someone was out sick this week, so I was the only one in my department. I was getting whooped but I worked hard and stayed late to try and get caught up. I even went in yesterday (only person there) for about 5hrs. I worked just under 60hrs this week, so that's why I haven't checked in daily.
I sent out quite a few offers the couple of weeks prior. Sometimes you just don't match up.

Yeah unfortunately I am only six month into a new and more demanding job. I have taken on more responsibility with my local sports teams and I am in the process of arranging a wedding for October so other than the basic to keep my team running daily I have been struggling to be active on the boards other than to answer the odd request

This is the quietest we've been, but I think that the teams at the top did a fair amount of work in the off-season to plug holes. Perhaps when we can trade FAs again there will be a flurry - as well as teams deciding whether to try and jump in or jump out.

Yeah, I hear y'all. I just like trading. Hopefully it'll pick up soon.

I assume that people are still setting their lineups, even if they're not coming on here every day. that's what I'm doing. I agree with Stephen, I expect it'll pick up a bit once 2016 FA's can be traded. hopefully a few teams can close the gap a bit on the Mets soon, to encourage some more people to be buyers
