Welcome, Jim. I live in Cincinnati area. Much of our league is newer to Ottoneu, as well. The league did manage to survive a year of limited baseball, so hopefully that bodes well for our future. Great to have you on board.

Hello my name is Jim and i live in the Detroit area. I have been playing fantasy baseball since about 2001 although i newer to Ottoneu.

Welcome Mr JRAY, Our auction is 3/21 at 4pm EST. Once you look over your team, you are entitled to one round of free cuts before the auction, if you choose. It would give you more to spend. It works best if you make all your cuts in one move on the 'Cut Players' tab of your team page. You current team name is Japanese for Fukuoka Hawks. Unless you are a fan, feel free to change it. Good Luck!
-
Anyone have any leads on filling the empty owner spot?
-
Fukuoka Hawks is 16 days past renewal deadline. We should assume we need a new owner, unless someone knows otherwise. Any ideas? Right now the team is available to claim if anyone wants to invite a friend. They will find it on dashboard..."Claim a team" link...10 up from the bottom of the page. There are a lot of teams to be claimed, so it would be good if we could fill it soon.
-
It would be great if someone posts something about the draft a few days early for the benefit of slackers such as myself so I dont forget

Welcome Phil, you are set on penalty free cuts for now. Just send me a message letting me know when you are done with all of your pre-draft cuts. Go Cubs!

Welcome, Phil. Don't make any cuts until you look over your entire team and get comfortable with the valuations. Then make your cuts in a single 'round' rather than one at a time. This will save you an e-mail to the commish. Great to have you on board!
3/21 draft works for me.
-
Hey everyone, jumped on the open team and got one of my friends to claim the roster... Welcome PHIL!!
League... Phil lives in CHI and is a Cub fan. He is super active, knows his shig, and will fit right in here... He pretty much beat me every year in our home league until it fizzled with the other 122 games of the 2020 season.
re:Draft--- March 21 @ 3pm CST will work for me.
-
I just received an e-mail from Vandelay. He feels badly about missing keeper deadline and has decided not to return due to being busy. He is unable to post message or abandon team (subscription expired). We will need commish to abandon team for him. Then, someone can claim it via the dashboard. Feel free to invite anyone who might be interested. They will get 1 round of free cuts.
-
That date and time works for me

I am looking at a Sunday afternoon for a draft date. In the next couple of weeks or closer to end of March? Any strong preferences?

I just sent out a reminder to Erik (Vandelay) via Ottoneu e-mail, but his personal email is not listed. A twitter handle is listed if someone wants to try that. If Erik does not return, someone taking over the team will get one free round of cuts to make their own freeze list.
-
Has anyone reached out to Vandelay Industries?? Seems like everyone else has been active in the last week. VI has not signed on since Oct. I might have a couple people who would want in if they do not renew today.
-
Reminder: Freeze list is due in 5 days, MN on 1/31/21. Be sure to cut all non-keepers by then. Hope to see everyone back this year. Please notify Commish by e-mail if you are not returning.

Looking to move an ace on a good salary for some cheaper bats... A Nola ($26), B Snell ($35), T Bauer ($25), L Giolito ($20). Message me directly if you are interested.

Arbitration ends in 6 days, 11/14/20. Reasons to participate: 1. Maintains competitive balance between seasons 2. Money thrown at good players gets them back in draft pool sooner 3. Reduces draft budget of other teams, and makes your draft easier. To participate, go to ‘Arbitration’, select a team and assign up to 3$/team. Must assign all $25 and at least $1 to each team. Doesn’t take long. Thanks!
-
We have 4 to 1 in favor of allocation. That is only half the league that weighed in (including me, who had no preference). But if you don't vote, you don't count. If you don't pay attention, you get what you get. Allocation it is.

Arbitration starts next week, 10/15. There are two types of arbitration: allocation and vote off. Our league is currently set to vote off, which was selected at inception. Before the season, several people expressed a preference for allocation. If we are to change to allocation, we should do so now. Alternatively, we could go with vote off for this season, and readdress the issue in the spring.

Thanks to Yo La Tengo and everyone else who competed the whole year to make it a competitive league. It was a unique season, and I just happened to be in first when it ended. A lot of the categories where tightly packed, and the standings easily could have flipped if the season lasted another week or two. I hope to see everyone back next year as well!
-
Congratulations Comic Relief Pitcher! Very impressive surge to the championship! This was my first ottoneu season. Even though it was a strange year, I had a great time with this league. Hope to see everyone back next year!

I set a lineup every day of bad players. Doesn't help much.
-
Yeah I didn’t realize I didn’t have a lineup set pretty much the first two weeks of the season. Oops. And it screwed me for the whole year.

Friar Jim, you and me both. This league confuses me.
-
man- if I could actually remember to set a lineup, i'd be doing a lot better. might have 1 or 4 too many leagues this year with the season postponement and me filling time with drafts. hope everyone is doing well and staying safe, 6 weeks to go!

Want starting pitching. Hit me up

Hopefully, I will learn to nominate the right player by the end of the season (Belichick, RIP). But this is not a knock on Tyler White...I am sure he will be a stud if he ever gets back into MLB. If you are rebuilding, beat the rush and claim him now! ;)
-
I sent a few offers. Hit me up with counters. Or if there are other teams looking to trade, I'm ready to deal. Let's get this league moving!
-
I'm open to trades, offer away
-
Send me a proposal
-
Is anybody up for trades? It is kind of quiet here.
-
Agree with both of you. Commish is doing a great job. Lead us through a very nice draft. Unfortunately, also had to deal with Belichick’s tantrums and handled it well. Best for all that he is gone. My sense is that rest of league is solid and will do well limited need for interventions. If the job becomes an excessive burden, I am sure we could add a co-Commish or someone else will step. After all we are doing this for fun, right? Welcome Asymptomics!
