Hi and welcome. We have three new managers this year (You, Grand Master Hinson and Mookie Monsters) and I'm a new Commish. Everybody else has confirmed for next year so we be should be good to go.
-
Hello All, taking over Larry White Walkers very excited to join. I’ve only played NL only ottoneu so I’m looking forward to expanding my universe. I’m an active manager who loves a good trade negotiation. Cheers!
-
Thanks, Commish. The league I was in a couple years ago was 5x5, weekly lineups. So FG points, hth, and daily lineups will be new. Should be fun!
-
Welcome to 1157. What Ottoneu scoring system are you used to?
-
Hi all, just signed up for the Hinson team. Lifelong baseball fan, periodic fantasy stuff, played Ottoneu for the first time a couple years ago in a newly-formed league that didn’t survive. Giving it another go this year. Looking forward to learning the roster and scoring format. Thanks
-
Unfortunately Grand Master Hinson asked me to abandon the team as he realized he could not follow it. I have done so and will probably do walkers on Sunday
-
Yeah I think give it the weekend and if nothing we consider their team abandoned. That’s a pretty long time without checking
-
Ok, I am new to this Ottoneu Commish thing so i want your input. White 'Larry' Walkers did not participate in Arbitration and has not logged into his team since Sep 25th, which is a week before the end of the Season (and he was ion the final for 3/4th place) I am pretty sure that he has abandoned. I did reach out a few day before Arb ended but nothing. Should i give a few days for him/her to react to this message and then if nothing I will consider the team abandoned?

If you have any arbitration primers or tips that would be excellent, thanks

Excellent, we covered our two vacant positions on the same day. Welcome to both of you. Please note the deadline for Arbitration
-
Hey all, just took over Grand Maester. I'm a pretty active owner and looking forward to joining the league!
-
Your first duty is Arbitration. This is where you get to increase undervalued players on other teams. Let me know if you want some Primers on how to strategize
-
Welcome to the Nameless League, I am going into my third year and I'm still learning. My only warning is that once you start Otto the other formats seem quite boring....
-
Hi guys, just took over Mookie Monsters. First time doing Ottoneu but have done lots of fantasy baseball before and am really excited

Put it this way. I will do it even if no one offers to co-commish however I hope there is an "Ottoneu 101" list of deadlines, and how to handle important setups like the draft so I dont screw-up
-
Would anyone be willing to co-commish with Alcatraz Seals?
-
I've only finished my second ottoneu season (and only the first in H2H) so i'm not very qualified to take on the role of Commish, however if someone more experience needs a Co-Commish I would be willing to help
-
I went ahead and abandoned Mookie Monster's team for him. If anyone will be willing to step up to take over as Commish for me, please let me know.
-
I am also unable to continue. If you know someone who wants my team please reach out so we can figure out how to change ownership.

Would anyone be able to take over as Commish of the league? I just don't have the time to keep up anymore and will have to give up my team. Once we find a commish to take over, I'll abandon my team so a new owner can take over.
-
Congrats to both for an incredibly tight and well fought final. I'm already ;looking for ward to next year.
-
Both teams negotiated in good faith. I’m in last place and not good enough to compete this year. I traded away expensive, aging, or underperforming players that were not going to be kept by me for next year based on age/salary/production for young, talented/upside, and cost effective players to build around for next year. I traded 10 guys I wasn’t going to keep for 8 guys I absolutely will keep. I also had all these guys on the block, so it wasn’t a surprise that they were available.
-
Tough to hold tongue on that latest trade that went down. What a joke.
-
11 players and 42% of my payroll is on the IL. A personal worst. Big Papi had an awful first three days but then almost stormed back. Me thinks my debut in the OPL will be shortlived.
-
Guys I just need 1 $1 outfielder! Help me out! I’m 0-4 on the last 4 I nominated!
-
REMINDER: Draft is today at 4pm eastern time!
-
Hi, not sure I'll be back in time for the start of draft, plans have changed to celebrate my brother's birthday (surprise dinner last night became lunch today). Good drafting to all
-
There is some confusion on being able to cut players after the keeper deadline of 1/31. In the past this has been available, but it looks like this changed 2-3 seasons ago to rosters being locked until after the draft. With that being the case and our league having a few new owners, we are going to open up cuts for all teams until the end of February, then rosters are locked until after the draft. You will have to make all cuts in one transaction. After you make a cut, your roster will lock.
-
With 11 of 12 teams completing the draft survey, the winning day/time is Sunday, March 19th at 3pm CST. The 12th team completing the survey would not change the results, so we are going ahead and booking the day/time for the draft now. If you can't be on a computer at that time, you can draft from a phone (I've had to do this a few times).
-
Half of the league has voted on draft day/time so far. Please don't forget to vote soon. We will draft on the day/time that the most people are available.
-

Why is it not letting me cut players from my team? Are they already locked in for the season?
-
Hi All, Second year Ottoneu player. Last year I was convinced to pick up a Points team and loved it so much i decided to get an H2H team , i format i much prefer in Yahoo. I am still learning how Otto works but I promise dedication, if not expertise.
-
Los Perros Hambrientos team has been abandoned. If you know of anyone who would be interested and a good fit, please share with them!
-
REMINDER: Arbitration ends today!
-
REMINDER: Arbitration ends on 11/14!
-
Only wanted to cut Mantiply, Ruiz was still in page, can you give him back to me Commish?
-
Looks like I'll be on the outside looking in for the playoffs so I updated my trade block if anybody is looking to make some last minute moves for that late season push. Open to discussing most players but will probably have a hard time moving Burnes just because of my home team bias haha. Hit me up!
-
I'm not competing for much this year and looking to build for 2023 and beyond. Feel free to hit me up with trades for players you want to help you win a championship this season.
-
Is No Doubters still apart of this? Hasn’t been online since Feb 4. I figure there’s a better chance of bringing a new owner on before season starts.
-
The draft is now complete. You can now trade and cut/nominate FAs.
-
REMINDER: Draft starts in 65 minutes!!
-
Is there a possible way to do an auto draft like function at all? I somehow missed the email about the survey for the drafts and will be at work for the time selected. If it’s the time that works best for everybody else then I’m ok with playing the waiver wire but if there is a possible way for me to pre select picks please let me know how to do that.
-
Please note the changed draft time (same day). Just 1 hour earlier to accommodate a few owners that are in another draft the same day at 4:30.
-
Based on survey results, the highest voted on day and time for the draft is Saturday, April 2nd at 1pm CST, 2pm EST.
-
Please complete this draft date/time survey as soon as possible and select all dates/time that you could make work, not just your top choice. All times listed in the survey are Central Time Zone. https://forms.gle/SJwWqXJGzzhZDSRA9
-
Will get a survey out soon on a draft date/time. Excited we are going to have baseball soon!
-
Agreed.
