Hi Guys! Very excited to join. I have played a decent amount of fantasy baseball before but this is my first Ottoneu league, so I'm looking forward to getting my feet wet

Hey all, we had a second team abandoned, if you know anyone looking for a team, let me know.

Thanks everyone for completing arb! I think this might be the first year we've had a team get $33! Sorry, not sorry, Marc. Let the trades flow - I saw two process this morning already!

Just FYI, the claim of youngbloods was just housekeeping on my part--I did the abandonment out of order! Hard to get a proxy for arbitration when you can't assign temporary managers, heh. I'll re-abandon the team after arb closes.

Hey all, for the four of you still working on arb, please don’t forget to finish up by Tuesday—less than 48 hours left!

Hey all, I haven’t been able to find a new manager for youngbloods as yet, so in the meantime I’ve marked the team abandoned. It could be claimed at any time. I’ll keep an eye on the team and keep looking—but, I will bring in a proxy if we don’t have a replacement before the deadline.

For those of you who have asked (no one asked) my cardboard cutout of dear Robbie is next to me today. He's wearing only a banana hammock with a strange piece of metal design on the front of it
-
I was going to wait until it was official official, but will join the chorus in congratulating Marc and the Hitmen on a great season and championship!
-
LOL, great method indeed. Congrats, we enjoyed our short-lived tenure on the throne while it lasted!

Thanks, Paul and Daniel! My team left 2022 with a bitter taste in its collective mouth after coming up just short on a title last season. We instituted a "Major League" movie-style "peel a section" cutout of Rob Manfred for inspiration this year. It appears to have worked.
-
Yeah, as we're down to the final series of the year, it's over. Congrats Marc on reclaiming the title, your fourth overall! Other than a brief respite in mid-June, you held first place since just before Memorial Day--expanding the lead these last few months, despite Kraken's valiant attempt at running you down like a Mario Kart villain.

Fluid? Maybe for 2nd/3rd. Let’s call it is. Congrats Marc!

With the grind slowly coming to a halt, just a couple reminders: 1) auctions must be started by Friday night at 11:59 pm ET - after that, they shut down for the off-season. 2) make sure your roster is legal when we hit the off-season. Being over 40 players/$400 is fine based on loans and 60-day IL guys, but if you win auctions this week, please still make the appropriate cuts. Good luck to those in the podium chase, still feels pretty fluid, despite the hitmen’s monster day yesterday.

Cut storm!
-
I haven’t noticed anything odd on my end, but I do check and change my bids pretty often ¯_(ツ)_/¯
-
I haven’t had any issues at all
-
Has anybody noticed anything funky with auction bidding lately? I'm almost positive I had submitted a bid on Cano (Marc would have won the auction anyway, but it would have cost him a couple more bucks). And now I have a bid on a pending auction that I have no recollection submitting. User error?
-
That $41 burning a hole in my pocket ain’t gonna spend itself…Let’s GO! :-p

Awesome, I think we're at 11/12 for 2/26, so unless Kraken rises from the deep with an issue, we should be good!

2/26 definitely works for me. Even though I put "after 7 pm" for most weeknights, I could probably do a little earlier than that if necessary. Especially if its a Thursday or Friday.
-
Hey Onsen, I put 7:30 PM since I believe someone had said they weren't free until then. I think we can move to 2/26 pretty easily based on what we're showing now, and yeah starting at 5 PM Eastern should work, Royals couldn't make it until 2 PM anyway, so fitting it in early evening works.

Follow up: How about Sunday, 2/26? If we could start at 5-6pm EST, that would be perfect for me. (Early Monday morning before work).
-
I can do 2/21 EST, (and other weekdays I marked YES), but 7 pm EST may be too late for me. That’s 9 am, on a following morning in Tokyo. I like the weekdays if I can start just a tad earlier. Anyway, if we choose 2/21, can we start at 6pm or 6:30pm EST?
-
2/21 works for me too. Will update the form tomorrow as well…
-
OK, until I get some clarity from a couple folks, I'm going to mark Tuesday, February 21st, as a placeholder date. It is currently good to go according to 8 of 12 (including Big Papi, who is going to sit out the auction).

Quick update with the form so far, there are a bunch of days that are still really promising, including this upcoming Sunday, Monday and Tuesday-though that might be a bit early. Make sure you get in there and note your availability, I am not opposed to doing this early, heh.

As in years past, please add a yes/no to each slot when you can, and/or enter a time you could be available. Thanks!

Thanks everyone for making this a smooth cut down day! I'll dust off the auction calendar later this week so we can pick a date. Looking forward to hearing the snap of a glove and crack of a bat from spring training sites soon.

Hey everyone, thanks for getting arb done! Trading season is open, heh. Also, I've asked around here and on Slack, and no one has shown interest in our zombie team, so I'll be marking it abandoned later this week. Here's hoping we find someone ready to compete!

Congrats to our three podium finishers, and especially Royal(s) Mess for the championship! Kudos!
-
Oh wow 😮 awesome—glad you changed your mind!
-
Changed my mind, keeping my team, your words made me reflect on commitment to the league and Ottoneu
-
Ah, all those rookie bids I thought you were in for the long haul! I don't think you'll be able to abandon (Niv took that away a few years ago, heh), but if you could stay through arb that would be great--pending us lucking into a few new owners sooner than later.
-
Congrats to our three winners! Unfortunately I'm going to have to bow out, don't have as much time with all my leagues. Thanks Commishes for great job, want me to abandon now so you can get a random in before arb? Or do arb before I leave?
-
Truth. The fantasy gods gifted me breakouts from Santander, Strider and Dansby and a historic, injury-free year from The Judge…I’ll take it!

Congrats Royals Mess! It's been a long time coming, but you rode some amazing breakouts to a well-earned win.
