Email will be set out shortly. Cuts have been made. Draft is next weekend.
-
A FINAL EMAIL REMINDER HAS JUST BEEN SENT. If you have any questions or concerns AFTER reading the email, don't hesitate to ask. BUT email me directly.
-
I have received no emails as of yet, but I have also not seen anyone who has been opposed to me removing players for managers who want/need this done. If this is the case, then please put together your lists of players you want me to cut and EMAIL it to me. If I receive no objections as to this process, then I will assume everyone is on board and looking for cuts. Remember, MARCH 18th IS THE DEADLINE. If you miss this deadline, you will be forced to cut players with penalties enforced.
-
I sent Adam a message the other day (I had tried to adjust my roster but was not permitted weeks ago). I appreciate some leniency as I am still bewildered by this format, but want to learn. I just noticed my team salary is at $509 and I need to be at $400 or below; I'm realizing the list of cuts I sent Adam is still short, so I'll need to make further adjustments. I'm all in and paid, but am just struggling mightily with how this works. Thx!

i would also note that having teams heading into the draft with illegal rosters is not great for the league. in future seasons (i'm assuming people's oversights this year are down to unfamiliarity with the format), i would suggest that the commissioners remove players from these teams until their rosters were in compliance, starting with the most expensive players and moving down the ladder.

I will send an official email out tomorrow regarding all this.
-
I will leave that up to you all to decide. This is a democracy. If you all want everyone to be allowed to do it, then I will oblige. Just please make a decision by March 16th, and email me directly with who you want cut by March 18th and I will cut the players by midnight on March 19th.
-
Yes, the emails came through. I honestly just haven't been paying much attention to baseball this off-season. I definitely understand if I don't get to cut, it's my own fault. If one team is allowed to cut players all teams should be.

Did anyone get my emails?
-
Penalty free cuts make sense but I think we should allow any owners to make cuts not just the ones that missed the deadline. Most probably won’t but should be open to all to be fair and we should try to set a date soon to make the decisions.
-
i'd b in favor of a round of penalty free cuts pre-draft, as i noted. did you all miss adam's email about post-deadline cuts?

My apologies. Needless to say I have missed the deadlines. Because I missed the deadlines I don't think there is anything I can do about it. I cannot cut players at this point.

Please try and direct some of these pre-season questions to Bogaerts. I only have a chance to catch up on Ottoneu fully on the weekends so I am often only seeing your message a week after the fact. I will try and see if I can extend the deadline, but I believe it a constant throughout all leagues setup by the website owners.
-
Yes I'd like to cut more players if possible please and thank you

since it's the first offseason and there's a lockout, they should get a penalty free round of cuts pre-draft. my 2 cents...

I'm not sure, I've been on the road for the last 4 weeks for work so I'm not sure.

any news from the folk who didn't make their cuts in time?

There is something currently posted for the opening in the forum. Bogarts placed it there other day. With luck someone will pick it up soon.

Commishes. Do you have a replacement lined up for Jose? If not there is a community forum to recruit new managers if we want to post there.

Just to let everyone know, Don't Bogaerts is now Co-Commish. For those of you who played last year, he was the original commish but had to step away for work reason before the season started. Give my work schedule in the next couple months, he agreed to help shoulder some of the pre-season issues.
You can still email me directly if you have issues.

Just a reminder that league renew must be paid by 2 weeks from today. Because of the Lockout, Ottoneu has pushed the keeper deadline to February 15th (this was a website decision not mine). If anyone has any questions/concerns please let me and I will do my best to address them.
Just so everyone knows, I will be traveling for work for several weeks starting next weekend, so email will be the quickest way to get in touch with me.

Hey everyone.
You'll notice a draft day set, this is just a place holder. In the next few weeks we will have a vote on the draft day and time.
Don't forget to pay your dues, complete preseason trades, and cut players before the deadline.
The deadline is January 31st for keepers and dues.
Adam
-
Thanks for corresponding between each other. I will send out reminders when the deadline gets close.
-
thanks!

There is no assigning of keepers. Anyone you don't cut is on your roster and can't be cut until after the draft I believe. The cut deadline is January 31st.

hey gang, do we have an idea when the keeper deadline is? also, do we actively select keepers? or are our keepers simply the guys we haven't cut before the deadline? thnx

Arbitration ends Sunday. If you have not done so, please complete by tomorrow night. An email will follow shortly.

ARBITRATION
Arbitration ends in 12 days. If you have not allocated your dollars, please do so. I will send out another email in a few days.
Adam

Hey everyone, arbitration starts tomorrow. Make sure to allocate your money. Anyone whose not planning on playing let me know.

Thanks for a fun season. After years of playing traditional Yahoo leagues this took some adjusting. Looking forward to next year.

I second rowengartners statement about a few more active owners. If you feel that you will not be able to commit to the league for the time needed for next season please let me know so I can find other owners who will be able to put in more time. I sent an email addressing this, and if you need to back out of the league please let me know ASAP.
-
Congrats to Woosox on the title and Barbudos for finishing in the money. Overall, good first season for the league but hope to see a few more active owners for the future. 10 days until arbitration!

Hey Everyone,
First let me say congrats to Woosox for winning the inaugural season. I sent out an email to everyone about the offseason process, and about whether or not everyone intended on continuing for next season. Please read the email, and feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions.
Thanks to everyone for a great first year.

Update:
Trade deadline is Tuesday August 31st at Midnight EST. If you want to make trades for the stretch run, you will need to do so by then.
Adam
-
Hey Everyone,
Just letting you know (if you haven't seen on the league page). The trade deadline is August 31st. If you have a desire to improve your team, start thinking about your trades and get your offers in.

ANNOUNCEMENT
Just letting everyone know, there is a trade deadline in the league (it's not something I setup, it just comes with playing Ottoneu). It is on August 31st, so this is about the 2 month warning for that. If you have questions, or are interested in trading (with me or anyone else), it is getting to be around that time to start planning for the stretch run.
-
Hey everyone,
Just checking in to see how things are going. It's been a bit of a hectic month, so I hope everyone is doing well. If you have any questions or concerns feel free to post them because I have been checking out the message board periodically.
-
Bad Bundy's- Just letting you know that your message showed up. Not sure if that is what you were asking but I am confirming it.
-
Just a note, I've been having a hard time getting this message board to work, the past couple of days. Hasn't been sending my messages, so this is a test.
-
You get points for both. You have two slots but only 162 games at the catcher position. If you go down on your lineups page you can see how many games played you have at each slot and what you're projected to use by the end of the season.
Also for everyone. I'm going to be a bit busy the next couple days so I may not respond promptly until the weekend. We are moving so I am not sure if my internet will be setup right away, and of course the act of moving will take up a lot of time.
-
Hey all, I have a question that might of been answered so I apologize in advance. If you fill both Catcher spots do you get points for both or does only one slot count and if so which one? I thought it was only one catcher.
-
If anyone objects to my proposal, please do so by noon today.
-
All auctions require a minimum bid of $1, it will show up as only $1 because it is blind bidding so you have no idea if other managers are bidding, so you need to bid according. You can do so by clicking bid in the active auctions window. Make sure to save your bids.
-
Are the current auctions sealed bid or have they just not gone over $1?
-
Alright so that's 6 people (not including me) I will leave this question open until noon tomorrow for everyone to respond. If I receive no rejections to the idea, I will make the adjustments.
Keep in mind that this will establish the precedent we will use going forward in regards to roster confusion and concerns.
-
I'm fine with the Logan Allen thing (the same thing happened with the other Jose Bautista a few years ago in another league and it's easy for that to happen in a draft) and, especially since it's a first-year thing, I'm totally fine with the Pence thing, too.
-
Well that's 5 people who are good with it. Hoping to get this resolved before first pitch tomorrow.
