Since we are one of a few leagues with playoffs after a season-long FGpts league all of the pace trackers built into Ottoneu aren't accurate. Niv has it on the roadmap - but I built this one in Google Sheets that tracks pace on a daily basis for positional pace, OF pace, and IP pace for our league. Hope it helps us all make good roster decisions to maximize scores and keep the league competitive. Here you go: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VkDKpSMTTG9PChCVZ18TWHq2BrQXXrWQnu9eQVhmv8k/ed

Hey everyone, today is draft day! Please don’t be late. We’ll be starting at 4pm MDT with or without you, so please show up early if you can!
-
Draft is set! Sunday - March 20 - 4:00 PM MOUNTAIN TIME
-
So far, we have 6 responses and the only available time is Sunday 4:00pm-6:00pm Mountain Time (Not to complicate it, but it is also daylight savings on Sunday, so heads up!). So for those who haven't filled out the form yet, keep that time in mind if possible.
-
And just as a reminder, the when is good link is for Mountain Time, so please account for your time zones!!
-
Hey everyone, it’s looking like we’re finally going to get some baseball, which means we can finally schedule a draft! Please fill out the following form so we can get that scheduled.

Hey Everyone, the keeper deadline is in 2 weeks, so make sure you cut players before then!
-
Also, great season everyone! And congrats to Vic for taking home the crown.
Please make sure to do the arbitration in the next month! Remember that you have to allocate at least $1 to every team and you have to use all $25 or none of your allocations will count.

If I had any clue what is going on in the basketball world, I totally would give Ottoneu basketball a shot… but unfortunately, I know close to nothing about basketball.
-
Hey dudes, anyone in here interested in taking an Otteneu Basketball league for a spin?

Haha!! Hey, fingers crossed though that the drought ends in a few weeks!!
-
Better buckle up for a 20-year playoff drought!

Buck's Fizz's year this year reminds me (and I know this is a rough board for this comparison) to the '01 Mariners.

Should be all fixed now!
-
As some of you have pointed out, it’s looking like we’re still limited to 2 starting pitchers per day. I’ve emailed Niv about it to get clarification on the format and will keep you posted.
-
Playoffs are limited to 8 starts not 7! Thanks, Victor, for catching that.
-
Points should stay the same. Catcher slot goes down to 1. Starting pitchers should stay the same but you’re limited to 7 starts.
-
Will it switch to different head-to-head rules? Will we have to select two starting pitchers instead of have our whole staffs available, etc.?

For sure a tight race between Steely and Grandpa. For the playoffs, 1st and 2nd place teams get a bye in the first round. Winners of the first round will be re-seeded and play in the second playoff week.
-
Pretty good race for that sixth slot between Steely Base and Grandpa. Any idea yet what the playoff format will look like?

Oof, what a game from Megill. 11 hits, 6 ER, 4 homers in under 4 innings -___- Hopefully whoever has Belt started him :P
-
Looking to make some trades for these players. A few others on the trade block too.
Willson Contreras C $15
Matt Chapman 3B $17
Gleyber Torres 2B/SS $21
Jose Abreu 1B $28

You’re both wrong. The most valuable player in all of baseball is Luis Campusano and I’m not trading him for anything but a full roster of all stars with 7+ppg and 7+ p/ip. If anyone wants to make an offer they have until the trade deadline. After that he’s mine forever!
-
Moncada is trending downwards and getting dropped across all leagues. Batting 170 since all star break and 133 over the last two weeks. All of his swing/contact/zone etc stats on batted balls and PAs are trending down as well. Small sample size for Ottoneu transactions but there are plenty of guys that will hit over 200 the rest of the season that won't cost 8 bucks, let alone a 20 valuation
-
There hasn't been enough trade volume yet since Kennedy is 99% owned and no one in their right mind would sell him off at a $1 salary, but unless someone gets hurt it's pretty obvious the outlook on Pagan and Kennedy isn't equal. There's a reason one of them is rostered by everyone and the other isn't. Drastically outscoring Pagan, got signed to a new contract almost 2x Pagan's salary this year (which he'll get cut next year based on his play) so guaranteed closer compared to occasional BP holds
-
Giolito last 10 transactions, since most recent are what matter most. Points league (since that is what we are in) $34. Moncada $15-$16
-
Baez and Moncada literally have the same average points per game. And are both worth $20 by average Ottoneu value.
Giolito is worth $20 by average Ottoneu value.
You’re stating an opinion that has no facts supporting it.
I’m glad that the Darvish trade was good for you. Just like the Giolito trade is good for Taylor. The new owner.
-
What you said wasn’t true.. Ottoneu value for giolito is half of $37 and Moncada Ottoneu average value is $20.
Wtf you talking about? Lol
-
Darvish ROS does me no good, and no one would pick him up at the crazy salary he is at, he's worth half of it. At that salary he's getting dropped end of season no matter what. Baez is worth a solid $8 more than his salary so I get rid of Darvish at his market rate and receive a deal on Baez at an ideal salary. If Giolito had a $68 salary then adding the $30 loan would be fair, but he doesn't
-
Mehh not quite. Moncada will go for maybe $10 in the draft next year, and is worth 13 or 14 right now before he likely continues to regress (if you look at his under the hood batting numbers) in the coming weeks. Giolito basically going for his salary rn. It wouldn't be a crazy lopsided trade if there wasn't a loan.
-
And you sent $33 lol. Giolito is on a horrible deal and will be a FA next year
-
Moncada scores more points than Baez.. and you just traded Darvish for him. Lmfao
-
Lol okaaay this Moncada/Pagan for Kennedy/Giolito + too much $ might be the most uneven trade I can find on here. I'll give you equal value for that without the insane $30 loan :)
-
Blockbuster!

The money traded for Dustin May is only good for this year. Bambino needs good players. It’s a no brainer for him. Rather than denying the trade because it could potential help me. I’d consider wether or not it helps him. Both teams equally benefit.
-
Just a heads up to everyone, please keep a look out for trade approvals. Any trades that occur in the league (even if it doesn't involve your team), every manager has the opportunity to approve, reject, or abstain. We just had a trade go through with 1 approval, 6 vetoes, and 5 abstains (all trades are approved unless there is a majority veto of 7 votes). 1 approval to 6 vetoes seem a little lopsided to get approved... but just keep this in mind for future trades!
-
I think it's just for the interface... 60 day IL opens up roster slots though
-
Is there any significance to the 10-day IL and the Minor Leagues statuses or are they just visual cues for the interface? Anybody know? I’ve searched the community forums a little to no avail.

The Google Hangout link seems faulty, so here's a zoom link for anyone who wants to join: https://qualtrics.zoom.us/j/4671469568
-
We’ll have a league Google Hangout for the draft, so feel free to join in here: https://meet.google.com/dmz-vnpz-tcd
I think that’s it for now… please post if you have any questions!
-
Draft:
The draft will take a few hours, so get ready to buckle down. We'll draft anywhere from 22-25 players per team. We’ll fill out the remaining roster spots using the standard add/drop process, which is a 48 hour auction. Read about it here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
This seems like a pretty popular way to go about filling out the entire roster while keeping the draft to a manageable length.
-
Rules:
We are using FanGraphs Points for the majority of the season. Our format is a little more unique is that we are having a H2H (head to head) playoffs with the top 6 teams. The hope is to keep the competition active in the latter half of the season by keeping the bottom half teams competing for the 6th spot. H2H functions differently from the standard FanGraphs Points, so be sure to review those and plan accordingly.
