Thanks everyone for another fun season! Looking forward to the postseason and a break from setting lineups. Catch you all in arbitration/trade season!
-
Congratulations Morristown on winning the league! Your bats were too strong down the stretch for me to hold on. I'll be back for another shot next year.
-
I put Thomas back, you can drop Brinson now.
-
I have asked our lovely commish to reverse my drop. Rushed doing it going into a meeting and meant to drop Brinson and not Thomas…
-
Happy trade deadline day to all! Make sure you complete those offers by midnight EST tonight
-
We’re making Tatis available for win-now help, although we would also like something keepable in return. Let us know if you’re interested.
-
I can commish cancel the deal. I’ll do that shortly. Guys, if you accidentally accept an offer, message me or post something on the message board ASAP so I can cancel immediately and it won’t look as if you had second thoughts after sleeping on it.
-
Sorry I thought I had rejected this and made a counter. I would like to veto but I'll leave it to the league to decide, sorry for the tech glitch

Well, here’s my reasoning on the trade: I’m in 10th place and playing for next year. I can't afford to keep Freddie in the off-season, and no one else has showed interest in trading for him. I like Ketel a lot, but I think Polanco is a better keeper since he’s half the price, might keep SS eligibility, has a better injury history, and has performed close to the same level. Obviously this helps them a lot more this year, but I think it sets me up better for next year.

That’s a uh…trade alright
-
lol ah yes that does cheer me up!
-
If it’s any consolation, losing $1 Bautista saved you from his -23 point outing yesterday, lol. Wish I hadn’t bid on that one!
-
lol oh well that clears that up! I still say I'm due ;)
-
It’s reverse order of standings once the season starts. You can’t win a tie bid as long as you’re in first…
-
damn I feel like I haven't won a coin flip on an auctioned player yet. #due
-
Half hour until the auction starts, let's get this season underway!
-
All, I am closing the poll and our auction will be Tuesday March 22nd at 6:30PM Eastern. Looking forward to seeing you all there, and to a full 162 game season.
-
Looks like baseball is back! Tentative Opening Day is April 7th with a full 162 game season. For our auction the current leading vote getter is Tuesday the 22nd at 6:30PM EST. I have added new options to the poll taking us to the new Opening Day. Please respond ASAP with availability as I will close the poll and schedule the auction at the end of this weekend.
-
I think that's a good plan...schedule one for a date that works at the end of March and then re-assess what's going on with MLB just before?
-
Doodle as a platform went down for a couple of days but it should be back up now for people to fill out the poll. I agree that we should wait for the auction, but I'd like to have a tentative date set up in case we need to move quickly once (if) a deal is reached. If there isn't an agreement by auction date we will postpone and then find a new date once an agreement is reached.
-
I haven't responded to the poll yet. I recommend that we don't draft until there is a labor agreement. There aren't many key free agents but I'd like to see where they land before bidding. How does everyone else feel? How have the votes shaken out so far for a draft date?

Sorry, I am having trouble with the poll...are we still trying to set a date? I'm ok either way, if we want to wait for the labor agreement to get finalized or go ahead

All, please fill out the attached doodle poll with your auction availability. Ideally we do this on a weekend but I've included weekday times for the last week before the scheduled start of the season as well. If the season is delayed, which looks less likely after yesterday's marathon meeting sessions between the MLBPA and league, we will revisit. https://doodle.com/meeting/organize/id/wdL5PAWe

Happy day deadline eve to all! Make sure you get in your cuts by end of day tomorrow
-
I think it makes sense to hold off on the draft until we get clarity on the season (assuming there is one). I am planning to be away April 25-May 1. Would prefer to avoid that week, sorry.

I'm flexible...probably can make any date work in march or April (if necessary) so whatever works for the majority is fine with me...schedule now or hold off for a bit either is good

I think waiting for the CBA makes the most sense since there are still so many players currently unsigned. To help with the difficulty of getting everyone's schedules together for the draft, we could go ahead and select a date in mid to late March to allow for the most players to have found new homes and then simply bump it later if the two sides still don't have a deal in place a few weeks ahead of our draft date. Just an option for us.
-
The keeper deadline is in 4 days and it looks like people are starting to make their cuts, once that's done we're going to need to start thinking about when we're going to have our auction. My strong preference is to wait and have it after we know when the season will start, but that means we might have to move quickly once an agreement is reached. If people would prefer having something on the books before then I'd be open to that, so please chime in if y'all have thoughts.
-
The keeper deadline has been pushed back to 2/15, but we all still need to renew by 1/31 so please make sure you do that. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/keeper-deadline-adjust-if-lockout-occurs/10611/4

Happy New Years to everyone! Looks like Niv posted an update on how the lockout could affect ottoneu. If it does, this seems like the thread where any announcement will happen https://community.ottoneu.com/t/keeper-deadline-adjust-if-lockout-occurs/10611/3
-
Unfortunately MLB couldn't get their act together and real baseball is shutdown with a lockout. But we aren't so let's stick it to the league and make a ton of trades while we wait! As of now my understanding is that ottoneu will continue with business as usual in regards to deadlines (both keeper and payment) but Niv, Ottoneu's founder, has said he'll post updates if that changes. Those will likely be at https://community.ottoneu.com/ if people are interested.

Welcome to the league Jay! And happy arbitration to all! Let's make everyone feel a little worse about their keeper possibilities.
-
Congratulations on the championship. Think you'll enjoy the points format, too.
-
Thank you for the warm welcome everyone - and I’ve been playing ottoneu 4x4 for 3 seasons (just won my first championship :) ) and this will be my first season in points
-
Welcome to the league, Jay! Are you new to Ottoneu or just new to our league? Either way, welcome aboard... - Derek
-
Welcome, Jay! Nice to have you aboard!
-
welcome, and good luck! I'm sure I will inquire about trades at various points this offseason
-
Hi All. I’m the new guy - Jay. If you’re looking to make some trades let me know :)
-

Congrats Furies on the championship! Looking forward to the off-season wheeling and dealing.
-
Congrats Furies! Those 140 points will haunt us for years to come :D
-
Thanks, Voit and Morristown, and everyone in the league! I’m ecstatic that we won. I wish everyone a great offseason, and hope we all enjoy the playoffs. Thank you! -Izzy
-
Congrats Baseball Furies, and great season everyone!
-
Congrats to Baseball Furies on winning the 2021 title! Hopefully these playoffs are as exciting and close as their victory was, even if we won't have games 163 and 164 for maximum chaos :(
-
It looks like the championship may come down to the wire yet again, so make sure you get in your trades before the deadline in 3 days! Good luck to everyone
-
We may be looking to trade Buxton for hitting and RP. Make us an offer or send us a message, all are welcome.
-
We want to go full win-now if we advance in OPL, which ends this week. We would be looking to trade prospects for depth bats, high-tier starters, and depth relievers. We probably won't move on anything until close to the end of the week though.
