There's only 7 players on the board right now. Only 20 more to go! Let's get some auctions started, and finish this thing!

Of the ten remaining teams six have two or less players to fill.
Of these teams three have more than $12 left on their own budgets.
Like Josh said above we have 27 players left to fill with only seven players with open bids.
The issue is these remaining teams have particular needs to fill so once they post a player they are wanting that player more than they did three weeks ago. This auction can drag out for another 10-15 days or it can go fairly quickly depending on which players are posted and which teams like those players. It should be interesting over the weekend with the posting of another 5-10 players.

The real impressive thing about the auction would be to see which owner had the most upbids and then never signed the player.

There were alot of players that I wanted but some went higher then I wanted to pay. I wanted Carlos Santana and Kendrys Morales, but didn't want to spend the money it took to sign them. I am hoping I do not regret that decision.

I know what you guys mean, I listed Encarnacion for a $1.00 before I got to the next screen San Francisco posted the next bid of $9.00. I was like Oh well!!! I guess one thing all the upbids we experienced showed us is some insight into our fellow owners

The challenge to is we all value players differently, when a player is posted how will the other 19 team owners value that player. Cap Space, player fondness, position, and needs definitely factor into all of that.

Baltimore this is all true you also kind of hope that when your bidding and another is bidding it's because you both want the same player and not that they are just bidding to break you.

Yeah that's true, but while that can be done if the strategy backfires, it could make you or whoever does it owning a player that really wasn't wanted.

Great to see only three teams are left in the auction, I'm sure it will be less then 48 hours before completion.
Nice to see six teams have double digit cash available on their budgets.
I predict those teams will be quite active once trading is open.
