We have new owners on a few teams - still looking to replace some others who have bowed out since the end of the season.
LAD - Jon
PIT - Mike
PHI - Quinton
MIL - Dave
TOR - Frank
As always a 7-day no trading period applies for new owners to give them time to get familiar with the league.

I missed a few changes from the offseason so if you are new feel free to introduce yourself.
The latest addition is Tom taking over the Minnesota Twins! The Twins have had a culture of "hands-off" ownership in the last year, so Tom is hoping he can turn the franchise around and start filling out their minor league system!
As always a 7-day no-trading rule is in effect to allow new owners to get their bearings with the league's many rules.

Hi, my name is Paul. I like to trade.
Edit: I decided to tally up my total trades. I have completed 14 trades since I joined in mid- to late-November.
I won't supply my birth certificate to prove my name is Paul. But the 14 trades is proof that I like to trade - and I promise, I don't trade for the sake of trading, I trade for sake of building my team to my liking.

Greetings! I'm Tom and love salary baseball (and rebuilds). Looks like I'm in the right place, eh? (Maybe a little Marlinesque??) GL to all in 2018.

Big welcome to Carter taking over the Nationals! Carter is a great competitor from the league on which the JBL is based on where he also manages the Nationals. Glad to have him aboard here!

Welcome Darryl as the new Rockies owner! He's a friend of Carter's and inherits a Rockies team that is right in the thick of a divisional race!

Please welcome Sean and Jon as the new owners of the Giants and Brewers, respectively! These guys are leaguemates from another league and stoked to delve into something as in-depth as our JBL!

Please welcome father and son duo Tim and Justin to the league, joining the great father-son duos in baseball. Only time will tell if they challenge the Griffeys for best all time (unbiased Mariners fan in me talking)
Justin will be taking the Astros and beginning what looks like a bit of a rebuild.
Tim will be challenging my Cubs with the Brew Crew!

Astros and Brewers backed out - still looking to fill the Giants too.
If anyone has any leaguemates/friends who would be interest please refer them to this league!

Taron stepped down from managing the White Sox, so welcome my good friend Erik to the league to manage the very successful franchise!
Also the prior Orioles owner didn't work out, so taking his place is Jazz, a good friend of the Mariner's Robin.
Stoked to have a full, active league heading into offseason free agency!

Hey James, great to have you in, of course.
James, like the Rox's Darryl, is a great competitor and I have been in home leagues with both of them for years, both are always near the top, so....watch out! Each of them are great guys, too.

Wanted to say that it’s been a blast since joining the Juice Ball League. I’m late in introducing myself to the league spending time on my team and trying to bid. I still don’t know much about my minor league roster but I’ve been digging into the threads discovering transactions.
Thanks to Curtis and my long time league mates Washington (Carter) and Colorado (Darryl) for getting me into Juice Ball League.
Looking forward to the competition and the interaction with everyone. Good luck to everyone.

Troy will be taking over the Giants franchise just in time for the start of the season - welcome!
Unfortunately I could never get Luis to reply to me even though I saw him on the Proboards site from time to time. Was anyone else in touch with him?
