Looking for some pitching (aren't we all!). Willing to trade Yordan, even potentially Soto, for the right package of 4/5 players. If you're interested, please offer.
-
Seems like it would create a workaround since it creates a position I don’t think Ottoneu supports. Changes values on players that haven’t previously been recognized. I’m not sure realism is a goal since we already play 5 OF and an extra infielder. I could live with it but for somebody playing in other leagues it’s not adding anything.
-
I agree that CF would be a good change but unfortunately I do not see a way under commish tools to adjust the positions. maybe if we email ottoneu they can do it but I cannot.
-
I'd be fine with it. There should be enough decent players with CF eligibility to make it feasible. It's already a challenge to fill 810 OF games, and this would add an extra element. It would favor attention-to-detail managers to work around injuries, platoons, and days off...which would make it more realistic...better managers earn an advantage, as it should be.
-
I would totally support CF being a specific position on the roster. Teams have different standards for CF defense and offense. It would increase realism Does anyone else think so?
-
Now that was an accurate team name.
-
5x5 has been abandonned, thanks for all your effort. If any other members know someone who would like to join us spread the word please
-
Thanks for the effort and for leaving a competitive team to the next owner. Good Luck.
-
Hi all, I don't think I'm cut out for 5x5 style. Can you abandon my team please. Thanks for the solid year!
-
Great season everyone, tough bunch, LSF you did an amazing job
-
Congratulations LSF on a fantastic season! Definitely hope to see everyone back next season.

Congrats on a great season, LSF. There's nothing we can do when our teams go on these hot and cold streaks except hope for the best. You held it together and finished strong. The best team won. Great showing by Squirrelly Wrath, too. New to the league, late to the action. to a second place finish. Nice. It's a fun league. I hope everyone returns.
-
Thanks. I was surprised to hold on as my team struggled for a few weeks in September.

Congratulations to LSF for crushing it this year. You have some impressive stars, and in the end it wasn't all that close.

It suddenly occurs to me I only have 85 innings left. Perhaps I need to start being selective.

That's brutal, Wrath. You are having fine season overall, and hopefully it ends on a positive note. I feel like I'm on the verge of escaping mediocrity, but it just isn't happening. Gotta keep grinding I guess.
-
14 of my 18 hitters have hit .200 or below over the last 7 days. Now I know what it's like to coach the White Sox.

I’ve got some cap space I can loan out as the deadline is approaching, would be looking for a prospect or two in exchange. Feel free to send an offer.

Just watched a Guardians game, heard that Jhonkensy Noel is called, "Big Christmas". Now I am pulling for him even more!
-
Beginning to reassess my chances. I am in 3rd place, Yay! but I am closer to 9th place than 1st place, WAH-wah!
-
Yeah, I can feel that. This is why we can't have nice pitchers.
-
I know we've all had our disappointments. Does anyone else have a pitcher they paid they paid $47 for who has 1 win, an ERA of 6.75, and 1.62 WHIP? While he is NOT on the trade block, you can be damn sure Gerrit Cole will be available in next years draft, lol.
-
Yeah that’s how they do it, I assume because many catchers don’t play every day. Try to selective with playing lesser catchers and ride the studs. Coming from a guy with only lesser catchers
-
How does Catcher work in this league, there are 2 slots but the games played table says we only get 162 max games.
-
Love this time of year…everyone is one pitching blow away from last place.
-
"It's Showtime!!!", Betelgeuse.
-
Don’t forget to end the draft in the league settings.
-
FireFox or Chrome work best for browsers
-
be sure you are trying to click "draft in progress" on league home page, not the "auctions"
-
is there a help desk?
-
I cleared cache.
-
try signing in and out of account?
-
Rebooted computer, still says room is empty, nor connecting to server.
-
try clearing your cache
-
"error communicating with server."
-
You have to go to the main page of the league and just click Auction Draft
-
The draft room looks empty, says not properly connecting.
-
remember all draft in like 10 minutes
-
Yes! Chat box opens when you enter the draft room. Also, there is a function where you can access you watchlist from the draft room, which makes it easier to find players to nominate and to manage your end-game options. I find it helpful add players to the watchlist before hand (which is easy), but you also can add during the draft.
-
Is there going to be a side chat during the Auction tonight?
-
Correct. No IP minimum in Old School 5 x 5.
-
Just to verify, there isn't a innings pitched MINIMUM right?
-
This is my chance to play what if. On my Points league team, I traded away JP Crawford, Skenes and Jackson Merrill. Now I have them again. Crawford is considerably nicer in a points league, but the other two will still be fun to watch.
-
Reminder to members new and old, our draft is Wednesday 3/13 at 8:30 Pm Eastern
-
Welcome Charles, happy to have to with us. You will have a blast
-
Welcome to the league Charles, Phillies fan I guess
-
Great to have you aboard! Good Luck!

Hi folks, I am the new owner of the "Wrath". My name is Charles. I live in Pennsylvania, this is my second Ottoneu team. I am looking forward to the Auction, and a new Era for the team. I make trades, I make puns, I make pop culture references.
