No vote-off in this league - only arbitration
-
The rules say there is a Vote Off that happens it seems after the arbitration period. I can't figure out when that happens.
-
Welcome aboard.

Welcome to the league, Ball and Chain!
-
Speaking of allocation instruction/advice: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/ottoneu-arbitration-guide/
-
Great! Thanks for the tutorial.
-
Click the “Arbitration” tab under “League” and move the drop down selector which should say “Overview” to select teams. Review the teams and allocate as much as $3 and as few as $1 to each. When done with a teams allocation, scroll to the bottom of your screen and click “save.”
-
How do I allocate arbitration dollars? I think I understand the process but don't see how I do that.
-
Congrats, Barbudos!
-
Thanks all for a fun season!

If anyone intends on leaving the league at the end of the season please let me or Bogaerts know ASAP so we can figure out replacements. Also remember that you can make trades during the off season (should start Tuesday if i remember correctly).
-
Congrats Los Bardudos on another winning season.
-
Looking to move Josh Naylor for a comparable outfielder who is younger. Feel free to make offers. I have three quality first basemen and need to move one. Also, if you're a contender consider moving young studs for Vlad if you need a an elite 1B/Util.

To be clear, no pitchers please. I'm looking for position players only.
-
PAUNCH ANGLE FIRE SALE! I'm aiming to rebuild. All expensive and older players must go! Make me an offer!

If you have questions related to the rules of Ottoneu, this is where you can find many answers: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
-
if a guy is on the 60 day IL or suspended, he doesn't count against your 40 man roster (but his salary still counts against your cap). So if you have someone like that, you can go over 40. The IL slots on your lineup page don't really mean anything, they're just there to help you organize starters etc.

Are you allowed to have more than 40 players on your roster? Can I put someone listed as out on the IL? If a player is listed as "OUT" can he be put on the IL? What happens when a player comes off the IL, would I have to dump a player if I had more than 40 (per first question)?
-
it's for platooning/quality of life. you can start two catchers and if they both play, both games will count, but you only get 162 catcher games like the other positions

Exploring a bit. Why in the lineup page does it have a slot for 2 catchers. I thought we only needed 1 for scoring daily.
-
Beantown, you are correct, 5 and 5. Those slots are position specific.
-
Showing my ignorance ... everyday you have to have 5 SP and 5 RP listed? You can't have say 6 SP and 4 RP listed?
Just so I understand those parameters for the auction, which it looks like I'll be lurker for most of it.
-
Our draft date time has been set for the most popular option from our poll: Monday, the 11th, at 6 PM EST. Thanks to everyone for participating in the draft poll.
-
Hippie Powers, considering the other new owners were allowed two periods of penalty-free cuts, I’ve allowed you to do that, too. You have until tomorrow at 1000
-
Thank you. Cutting done.
-
Welcome aboard, Bangor. We are outside of the period you referenced. Once you claim a team, you have one opportunity to make cuts penalty free. Considering you’re new, if you want to make one additional cut (individual or multi-player), I’ll allow it. However, you’ll need to make the cut by 1000 EST time tomorrow.
-
Hello folks. New owner and new Ottoneu player too. Just clarifying things. I made cuts but am wondering about this language from the rules, “ After arbitration and before the keeper deadline, teams are free to make trades and cut players penalty-free”. Does this mean that I can cut a few more?
-
FYI, I am out of touch March 14-19. Anytime before or after that I'm good with.
-
When are you off work?
-
I just completed the survey for the draft day. I live in the mountain time zone and all of the week day times are 4 pm - 6 pm for the latest slot. Saturday and Sunday later afternoon/evening works best me, but if we do weekday it would have to be when i’m off work for it to work for me.
-
All good. He gave me a do over! Now just figuring out who all my players all since I have not done baseball analysis in a decade.
-
Commissioner Nick should be able to cut guys for you if you message him a list

Oh, now I see a message that as a new owner I get one round of penalty free cuts. Darn. Wonder if they can give me another. Didn't know I had to do it all at once.
-
Well, I think I cut Scherzer but not the Cut Players page says my roster is frozen and I can't cut players. Not sure how to deal with that.
-
New players should be able to drop as many players as they like

hi folks, just claimed big papi memories. have some prior ottoneu experience and looking forward to the season
-
I am free to draft anytime other than March 14-19 ...
-
Hello all. Is there a chat feature other than this? How does the draft work? Can I drop as many players as I want?
Is there a list of available players? No idea what I'm doing as a first time player but will learn quickly
-
There are two friends whom I contacted through the managers looking for a league page. They'd like to join, but can't draft between the 13th and 19th. Any thoughts on when we'd like to draft... assuming this league is going to continue?

Has there been any progress in getting new owners?
-
Shouldn't be, Nick has a message out for people to join and Ryan reached out to say he was having issues. I have alot of stuff going on right now and have not been able to check. Nick, can you follow up with Ryan and the league post?
-
I see 5 teams expired. Are we folding this league?

Ryan, I responded to you in your messages.
-
Saw your post but didn't see any solution or options moving forward. I would like to make cuts if possible. If that's not possible, what are my options? Thanks.
