Having open chats is great, cause we all need to keep each other in check to make sure the league works and nobody's teaming up unfairly. In any fantasy league, some trades might seem iffy, but we just got to remember we're not here to judge good or bad trades, just to make sure nobody's cheating or colluding.
-
OK, guess I'm wrong if guys competing for contention are good with this deal. I got my head chewed off in another league for something a lot smaller than this and had the same reaction, my team = my decisions. GL to both teams in trade

People can run their teams however they see fit. I have an opinion on this deal but I’ll keep it to myself because it’s irrelevant. We’re all trying to win this year or next and can plan for that anyway we want. I’d only veto a trade unless I expected collusion. Just my two cents. Good luck everyone moving forward.
-
I see nothing wrong with the trade. It is a dynasty league and you have to look at it down the road sometimes. UCL is looking to the future. When you give up big name stars with high salaries the salary has to come with it else its impossible to trade those guys for the most part. That's my perspective
-
We don't have to defend our deal & I'm clearly bias but for clarity we went back and forth with lot's of different sized loans this morning ultimately we came to an agreement with the huge salary dump. There's a veto button if you're unhappy with the deal or think $175 loans shouldn't be allowed but there's no loan limit rule and we both made this trade ethically with good intentions. Trades I don't like happen in leagues I'm in every week, sometimes the economics of Otto can make that h
-
I'm happy with my haul and have had those guys on the block for a while. You run your team
-
I gotta say I agree
-
Is it me or the loan of 175$, yes I repeat a loan of 175$ and a pack of all-stars for some future prospects is a little overboard????????

Hey folks! Just a quick reminder that this league is OPL eligible. If you finished 6th or above last season you can enter your squad to compete across all of Ottoneu in a super fun best ball format. Check out the rules & enter a squad here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/

Pitching Ninja, not PL -- also, it's hard for me to bring casual fans out to a game when it's an all day event.
-
I love me a 4h baseball game. I am a giant baseball nerd. Baseball needs the clock, it's wonderful and good for the game. The strategy of time usage also adds an element, recent PL video on Scherzer wonderful demonstration of this. Adds an element and increases accessibility to the fans.
-
I’m hoping intense situations in the 7,8,9 innings they relax it a little. But otherwise I’m ok with it.

I’m a fan. It’s super refreshing to see the batter get right back into the box instead of play with their batting gloves for 30 seconds.
-
How do you all feel about the pitch clock so far ?
-
T minus 5 minutes!
-
never mind ...
-
where do we enter the draft. My mind is kinda foggy ..

Won't be participating in auction but I wish you guys an active one

Hey guys - just a heads up I might run 10-15 mins late tonight, have to take my daughter to a tennis tryout that just got scheduled yesterday. Please go ahead without me, I don’t have a ton of cap so I doubt I’d be bidding on early guys anyway.
-
Just a friendly reminder, draft is this Monday at 7pm eastern. Looking forward to seeing you all there! ⚾️⚾️⚾️

I am good with the 20th.

Just waiting for Marte Gras to pay. 20 days until the draft !!

Works for me. Thanks for organizing everything, BBB!

Looks like Feb 20th might be the draft date. UCL can do it starting at 7pm. Any thoughts/concerns with a draft date of Feb 20 at 7pm EST? I will email everyone as well to make sure everyone is in agreement

That didn't take long. Welcome to the league, Big Papi!

Good team, should fill up quickly.

Unfortunately Cruz had to drop out last minute. I have posted his opening on the boards to get filled asap. Still have 5 other managers yet to pay. Lets all get paid up and get the doodle filled up soon please

February draft would be great for me

February draft works for me, with the exception of the 4th-7th.

I’m fine with a February draft.

I'd love to do a Feb draft if possible, helps to lessen the draft calendar pile-up in March
-
I'm fine with mid Feb draft I'm in 8 leagues so that would avoid a draft logjam and once you draft you can trade again if you so want to
-
Just one more point to why mid February, it gives everyone about two weeks to assess the FA landscape before putting a draft strategy together. Like I said we don’t HAVE to do this but I do thinks it can be pretty fun.
-
Idk about February 1st, but I’d also be in favor of at least a mid February auction. I won’t push if the most here would prefer otherwise but I think UCL brings up some fun and interesting points, plus my favorite part of the early draft is the fantasy echo chamber hasn’t quite settled in yet. Gives the auction quite a bit more uncertainty imo if NFBC trends are locked in and Twitter isn’t full of all the same sleepers.
-
I also feel it's more in spirit of being a GM and having a flushed roster in case of injury ((which all risks are equal come Feb)
-
I, for one, am in favor of drafting like Feb 1 to avoid 0 trade/transaction season. February sucks for sports.
-
Sorry in my email I said January 30th. Deadline is January 31st***
