Welcome to the off-season! A reminder - you can now make penalty free cuts to both your mlb and milb$0 rosters up until the Ottoneu Keeper Deadline (usually Jan 31).
Trades are also open until the Keeper Deadline, but remember that you must be at $425 salary or less before you can make a trade.
-
Remember, tomorrow is the last day to submit your arbitration dollars! You are also able to change your allocations if you have second thoughts on players.

Glad everyone re-upped for 2025
If anyone would like to join an additional league, I'm starting up a new standard $100 5x5. League 1703. It will be the second league I'm commishing here at Ottoneu.

It looks like we have all but 4 managers renewed for 2025 - I have sent those managers emails just in case they missed the league messages and slack messages.
-
Hey guys, a couple days late but Arbitration has opened and will close on November 14th.
Please remember to renew to your teams - the charter stipulates you renew within 3 days of arbitration opening, but since I’m late getting the reminder out, we’ll say October 21st.
If you don’t plan to renew, please let me know so I can start looking for a new manager.

Thanks also Commish! It was definitely a sweat until the end as everyone just kept competing and I was certain we would be overtaken. What a fun season!
-
Thanks Commish! Not gonna lie Ghost certainly had me sweating the last couple weeks! I appreciate all you put into the league to make it as successful as it is!

congrats to BaseVols on an incredible turnaround from a year ago and to Ghost Ride the WHIP for riding their name change to a prize payout!
i feel like i say this every year (which is a good thing), but we continue to yield a different league winner year after year, and in 6 years, have had 6 different teams finish on top!
this year, our top 2 finishers are first ever prize payout recipients for their respective teams as well!
thank you everyone for making

Sending good vibes your way DCO...if there's anything we can every do for the league to take a load off for ya, let us know.
Congrats to those up at the top of the standings for the season!
-
Thanks for sharing these details and congratulations on the wedding! We certainly appreciate all the work you do for the league and would be happy to assist in any way that would be helpful
I have nothing to add on the Braves-Mets issue other than displeasure since we don’t have any of those players!
-
Thanks, I will take Niv's comment "The Ottoneu season will be extended as necessary to cover all MLB regular season games, which includes tiebreaker games, etc. This will extend season-long leagues" to mean that the double header on monday the 30th will count. If anyone else understands this differently please correct me. Thanks!

Do you know if the league is a hard stop on the 29th or will the postponed Braves Mets games that have to be played on the 30th count towards the totals?

In addition to that, our family hosted a county wide event on some of our land that took a lot of effort prepping for, and because dad is not able to do any physical aspects anymore, I spent much of my “free time” assisting there.
If I wasn’t busy enough, my lady and I eloped this past week, so that took the remaining downtime I had.
Not trying to make excuses, just had several real-life events that took precedent over Ottoneu. Hopefully things return to a more normal l

In August, they decided to run more tests and issued a rediagnosis to a disease that mimics Parkinsons, but moves more quickly. They won’t have more details until the next scheduled appointment, which is where they’ll issue the medication changes necessary we’re told.
-
Thanks for your patience on my neglecting Ottoneu for the past month or so besides the bare minimum lineup changes and occasional FA bid…
I won’t bore anyone too much, but the past 9 months have been very transitional for me. I quit my job and moved home to be closer to my parents as my dad was diagnosed with Parkinson’s a couple years ago and has been progressively getting worse.

PSA - The Google Sheets and Restricted Player feature on Ottoneu have been updated to reflect the changes made from the August milb$0 supplemental draft and trades/promotions since then. Please look over your teams and make sure I did not make a mistake!

Robby Snelling has been transferred from GRW to AW as a result of their trade on 8/22

Did the player list ever get updated from the draft?

Rhett Lowder has been added for GRW

Ghost Riders recall Rhett Lowder CIN

you should be able to see it on the existing sheet, except i haven’t updated it yet lol
bear with me, i’ll get it done soon

Hey Commish, forgive me if this is a dumb question. Is there an updated link to the new MiLB roster sheet with the updated rosters from this past draft or should I be able to see it on the previous sheet? New Guy Problems!

The recent trade between GRW and AW has been cancelled due to a milb$0 player being involved - any action involving a milb$0 player or eligible milb$0 player will need to wait until the draft is complete.

Yea, that's a problem haha. I can assure you I won't be doing that

I'm hoping for the same. The manager you replaced timed out for all of their picks in August 2023 and first pick in January 2023.

O I am sure nobody times out, I was really just curious how that part of the draft works.

it is a 12h clock, so you would be potentially back on the clock at 2:40am eastern if RIB times out on the 8.04 pick

I know I saw it somewhere but can't seem to find it now, how long is the clock in the MiLB draft? I feel like I saw 6 or 12 hours? Apologies, still getting used to it but its fun!!

yes, last year the league decided to only allow players with 0 IP/AB to be drafted, so Matthews wouldn’t be eligible for the draft
-
Concur w/ LD - we've been using the Moonlight Graham rule, ie, if they've generated any MLB stats, they are ineligible for the draft

I had started the Zebby auction after confirming he pitched 5 innings last night. If that's against the rules, my bad
