Congrats everyone. You've made it halfway through our season and most of you don't look any worse for wear. Something fun to watch for the second half: How the playoff race is shaping up with four teams currently vying for the final spot and soooo much baseball to be played.

Send trade offers for Nelson Cruz. Heโs on the block.

Week 1 is upon us! Just a quick note, this first matchup runs April 7 -17 and our 9 GS cap for pitchers does NOT reset on Monday. Choose your starters wisely - or don't. Whatever floats your boat.
-
Quick reminder: Draft is at 9 pm eastern which is in [checks watch] six minutes. See you all in the draft room shortly!
-
Similarly, I'm looking to move Jose Ramirez right after the draft. Need to get the salary off my books so will trade him for cheap
-
Iโm looking to trade Tatis Jr. Taking offers to finalize one and post it after the draft. If interested, send me a text or message.

Hallelujah!!

So now that we will officially baseball this season it's time to pick a draft date. I updated the Doodle poll to include dates in April and upcoming weekends. Please check all dates you are available. I'd like to pin down a date soon. Thanks! https://doodle.com/poll/xzegdu7mepwc3umx?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link

Admittedly I was a little too optimistic when I sent that last message. I am okay holding off until after the CBA. It may not make sense to draft just for the sake of drafting.
-
My preference would be to schedule our auction after a CBA is in place. Deadlines make deals, and it seems TV contracts requiring rebates after 25 canceled games is the next logical pressure point for MLB owners. I think Opening Day will be in May or June. That said, Iโm available March 9.
-
3/9 works for me.

It is looking like Wednesday, March 9 is the frontrunner for the draft. Still waiting on a few other folks to chime in though, so please let me know if that date works.
-
Now that we are through the keeper deadline, it is time to start thinking about the draft. I know it's a little weird to be talking about a draft during the lockout, but with everyone's busy schedules it's important to plan ahead. I have created a Doodle poll with dates beginning Feb. 28. Please mark ALL times that you are available: https://doodle.com/poll/xzegdu7mepwc3umx?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link

If anyone is looking to pick up another team there are 3 openings in another league I'm in. PROFANE is in it too. Teams available are: Turd Burglars, Weighted Wookies & Not the bot. Link: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1174/home

FYI: The keeper deadline has been moved back due to the MLB lockout. It is now Feb. 15 at 11:59 p.m. eastern time.

Morning all. Sharing a post in the Ottoneu Community re: scenarios for a lengthy lockout or shortened season and how it may impact the upcoming keeper deadline. You can read the latest here: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/keeper-deadline-adjust-if-lockout-occurs/10611/3

Congrats everyone for completing another round of arbitration. For the third season in a row we had 100% participation, so thanks again for taking the time to make keeper decisions harder for your opponents.

1. Springfield Sultans $31
2. Arthurian Legends $29
3. THE PROFANE UNDERTONES $28
And players who received the most arb:

2. Ohtani $15

For those who care (and I may be the only one), record books have been updated across Ottoneu to reflect the wonky 2020 season and ridiculously low pitching records. Sorry Paul, the records you inherited from Rick's team because he didn't set his lineups will not stand the test of time. https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1016/recordbook
-
The offline league history document has been updated to reflect the 2021 season. A few changes this time around: I removed the career W-L sheet because it was cumbersome to update, bolded the names of new owners to make them easier to spot and added a proposed rules recap to the 2021 sheet. The document can be found here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1PLmJx3g1aGAPjrPrhWd6zBGQpNLck19NKyvfqcVULm8/edit?usp=sharing
-
Just a reminder that you have until Nov. 14 at 11:59 p.m. eastern to submit arbitration. This is an important part of the off-season and plays into the overall economics of Ottoneu.
-
Alright, everyone, arbitration is upon us! You have between now and Nov. 14 at 12:59 p.m. eastern time to add salary to players on opposing teams. If you have any questions please don't hesitate to reach out or feel free to post to the message board. Thanks!

LOL!

In Preller We Trust to rebrand
(AP) โ GM Matt Bickel announced in a press conference earlier this morning that it is time for a rebrand. While during the original inception of the team, ownership had unilateral faith and respect for famed Rockstar GM AJ Preller, however the time has come to remove his namesake from the team name as ownership is no longer a big Preller fan.
When reached for comment about the change, AJ Preller simply stated โHuh?โ

Well that was a fun celebration. When can we draft again and get ready for next year. :D

Sultans Fire Pitching Coach
(AP) - The Springfield Sultans today announced the firing of pitching coach Rick Vaughn after the team finished fourth highest for batters hit by pitches during the 2021 season.
"We thought hiring Rick Vaughn would bring an edge to our pitching staff," said Sultans GM Ryan Hermes. "Instead, he was teaching our pitchers to throw oddly named pitches that couldn't find the plate."

Congrats on making it to the off-season, everyone. Take a week or two to see how much your children have grown or reconnect with spouses or partners. Arbitration begins Oct. 15!
-
Thanks all! Agree on this league being awesome to play in. Pretty active group which makes for some competitive matchups top to bottom each week. Looking forward to figuring out how to build a repeat team. :)
-
King Arthur it is! Congrats on a great season from start to finish. Glad I was able to keep it close most of the week. This is hands-down my favorite league. Kudos to everyone for making it competitive and fun, and extra thanks to Ryan for his steady leadership.
-
Congrats on the win, Arthur. No longer the bridesmaid, finally the bride. And congrats to everyone on a great season. You still have a few days left to make roster moves heading into the off-season. The deadline to nominate players is Oct. 1 at 11:59 p.m. eastern time. If you do make last minute roster moves please leave yourself enough time to drop players and ensure a legal roster heading into the off-season.
-
Congrats, Arthur. It was your season.
-
Congrats to the six teams who made the playoffs. Best of luck to each of you over the next 3 weeks. Teams that did not make the playoffs can still make adds and drops up to the end of the MLB regular season next month.
-
Everything Lindor went. Lights will be off at the Taco Shop as of Sunday night. Until, like at every other going out of biz sale, we announce our grand reopening event. Ha. Good luck to the playoff teams here in 2021.
-
I am in four leagues (I have a problem) and only two trades went down late last night across all four and they were in the same league. Very quiet trade deadline. Glad to see Dave's used car salesman bit was successful, in which his words had the same effect of a wavy arm inflatable tube man.
-
So I drafted into a 16-team Ottoneu H2H leagues this spring (because I have a healthy life/fantasy balance), and last night the team on my heels in 2nd place acquired Kershaw and (maybe like 6 innings of) DeGrom and offsetting cash for Bassitt and Gonsolin. Makes me feel a little better about the Wander and Kelenic offers I turned down even though the Docile Irish are limping into the playoffs.
-
Today is THE day. Thatโs right, your final chance to rent Francisco Lindor and watch him catch in FIRE for the playoffs! Hey, itโs not a fire sale itโs a DRUNK sale at the Taco Shop and we can be swindled for a
Beer andโthe right DEAL! So click those little tiny OTTO boxes and get ready for some SWAPPIN to commence!! FINAL DAY! OPEN TILL MIDNIGHT! EVERYTHING LINDOR MUST GO!

I don't know about a recount haha but MLB stat changes happen. What's the Otto window for that and has it ever changed an outcome?
-
I wish you had started Matt Barnes and his -0.13 or whatever. Then you could be feeling my pain. :). It was a fun one to watch unfold all week!
-
I knew it'd be a nailbiter, but that was ridiculous. Blame Kyle Hendricks with -20 points yesterday.
-
I would like to request a recount. I believe the margin of victory should allow for that. :D
-
For managers itching to add any of the recently drafted players, they won't be available in the Ottoneu universe until they officially sign with their team. Once that happens, you can auction them just like any player on the waiver wire. Keep an eye on this thread to see when players have been added: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/official-thread-for-fantasy-baseball-player-addition/208/1008
-
Scheduling note: With the ASB this week it's a short matchup on the schedule. Games pick back up Thursday (sort of) and in earnest Friday making the Week 15 matchup a sprint.
Eight weeks remain in the regular season and 9 teams have a shot at the 6 playoff spots. The winner of each division automatically makes the playoffs followed by the remaining 3 teams with the best record, regardless of division.
-
Josh Naylor was practically murdered by a teammate today. Does ottoneu offer some kind of Aflac for that?
-
Vlad Jr and Bellinger. One of those two might seal the deal right now on someone winning the title. Both? Boom.
Send me a thermonuclear offer. Serious offers that benefit the future of my club and the right now status of yours will be seriously considered. Low ball offers will be answered and rejected with creative insulting language. If no one wants? That's totally okay as well. We can sit tight. :) Happy Father's Day, all
-
Happy Father's Day to all the dad's, grandpa's, step-dad's, pet dad's, godparents and father figures here.

I will consider trading Juan Soto for the right offer. He wonโt be cheap and Iโm not looking to front a loan in trading him. So please donโt send me an offer where Iโm sending a loan back. Heโs worth the $59 salary as heโs a top 3 player in MLB. Just off to a slower start. But I think we can all agree he will turn it up. Iโm looking for SP, RP and a 1B upgrade. OF is a bit dense too until my prospects come up. All offers will be evaluated and taken into consideration.
