Ok thats awesome, it works well.
-
For playoffs I set it to 5 SP slots with 7 starts per Week
-
For playoffs?
-
Have we decided on the number of starters or slots? I've done it a few different ways in my other league and we ultimately decided on 5 slots and 7 starts per week option which works pretty well.
-
Sweetness, love the new league name and playoff format. Should be a fun 2023, good luck to everyone!
-
Good Evening, the League has been changed to a playoff format. I have chosen the wild card format where 6 teams make the playoffs. The championship will be for 2 weeks. The auction draft date is not official. I have also changed the name of the League to Big League Chew.
-
Based on the results of the poll the majority of the league is in favor of changing to a playoff format. For the 2023 season, we will have playoffs. As of now, the commish tools only allow me to check an option to include playoffs. I'm assuming we will be able to decide on the playoff option after I make the change.
-
So are we locked in for new playoff format for 2023?

Check out the poll regarding the different playoff options. Please take some time to read and vote. Thank You
-
I will set up a poll tonight so we can vote on playoff options
-
It’s depressing when it’s early June and you know you got zero shot at 1st lol
-
Yeah the reason I like it is that it gives most of the league a better shot. Actually really similar to how MLB playoffs work now. I’ve done a few different formats but like H2H 6 team with top two seeds getting a bye. Then 7-8 GS cap per week.
-
I think we need some clarification. Are we talking about a 4 team playoff, 6 team, 8 team? And what rules format do you want to use for the playoff, how many starts a week, ect? As someone who plays in both season long and H2H leagues the roster construction is different. So, just be aware of that as well
I'm down for whatever the majority wants, just want to know exactly what we are voting for

I prefer a playoff format. Keeps the league interesting.
-
I think playoffs would be great way to keep the whole league involved throughout year and maybe not lose hope And sell too early. So that would be my choice.
-
Sounds like we need a poll! I’ve played both and like playoffs. What Merideth said is spot on
-
I prefer no playoffs but I'm good with whatever the league decides!
-
I'm in both formats, they're different but both fun. As long as everyone is cool with the switch to H2H for the playoffs (with all the corresponding roster implications), I'm fine with either.

playoff format is my preferred choice. Regular season is still rewarded with a high seed but gives the most people a chance to win
-
How does everyone feel about the possibility of a playoff format? Instead of having top 3 highest scoring teams at the end you would have a playoff head to head format with seedings. You can read more about it in the ottoneu rules section. *This change would have to be made during the offseason*
-
Will we be entertaining playoffs this year?
-
Please make sure to submit your final arbitration allocations by the end of the day today.
-
Houston Astros have won the World Series. Now we look ahead to the 2023 Season. Please make sure to complete your arbitration by Nov 14th.
-
Well done, Kraken! My guys couldn't quite repeat a comeback miracle a second year, but it was a fun battle that went to the last week. Looking forward to the offseason!

Thank You! Great competition this year. Thank You to everyone for taking the time to manage your teams over the long season.
-
Congrats on the win, Release the Kraken! This was a great season - a couple of tight races for 1st/2nd and 3rd/4th (unfortunately I didn't quite have the juice to climb all the way to a money place). Looking forward to the MLB playoffs and the Ottoneu offseason!
-
Just building for next season, trade block updated with players I'd be willing to move. This was a lost rebuild season so not a lot of talent there, but some good players that would help in final month if you're competing.
-
I went ahead and removed the most recent players that went up for Auction. You can now put those players back up for auction.
-
good riddance! I’m cool with returning those prospects to the team with the next highest bid
-
I feel like now we are in a better position to be able find a new owner for the team in the offseason. Team has some good pieces to build around.
-
I messaged him about concerns a few times. I did say that he wasn't breaking any rules as long as his team stayed under salary cap and roster size. However with recent auctions, and the amount of leagues big papi is in, I felt the direction of the team would be compromised. I didn't want all these prospects added and then have big papi leave the league.
-
I would have given him a chance to make his cuts first... I agree it's weird what he was doing but as long as he could fill out a major league lineup and got his roster down to size it technically wasn't anything illegal. Probably would have been better to address this kind of thing in the offseason. But, assuming you had conversations with him/gave him warnings I guess it's fair. As for the auctions, I'd be okay with either your proposal or just undoing them and putting the players back in FA.
-
Regarding the most recent run of auctions I was planning on awarding the players to the teams that made the 2nd highest bid. I can place these players on these teams rosters. Please let me know what you all think
-
I have decided to remove ownership of Team Big Papi Memories. His bidding tendencies is disrupting the proper value of players. Big Papi also is the owner of several other Ottoneu teams. As commissioner I want to make sure that we all enjoy our time playing in this league. To preserve the present and future state of the league as commissioner I believe this is the best course of action to take.
-
Big Papi league disruption with Turd Ferguson bidding tendencies, weird...
-
bidding $7 on a guy that goes for $1.20 on average seems reasonable
-
Didn't think I would get Bellinger so I bet on Stanek, then had to cut people, that's what the F.... happened

Appreciate the $7 bid and cut on Stanek. What a f**king joke
-
Looking to deal Mookie for some MI help + players who are good priced. If you're interested in talking trade, let me know.

I have 3 of the top 6 catchers in points per game right now amongst regular starters, willing to trade one or even two of them.
-
Already obvious to me that my team won't be competitive this year, willing to trade Bieber and Albies for the right offers. DeGrom I'll wait to deal when he's healthy. Soto I plan to keep, to deal him I'd need multiple high end players on cheap contracts (i.e. not dealing Soto for prospects and random cheap players like the offers I've seen so far).
-
Don’t be afraid to take glance at the rules of this league, it’ll do wonders..... https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
-
Yes the players you dropped were claimed by other teams.
-
Quick.question - I'm fairly new tpnthis site so.bear with me - my salary shows $7 less now then it did this morning when I posted the other comment. Is that becausw my drops were signed ?
-
Willing to deal all top guys except Harper
-
I added him cause i wanted him and was going to drop someone. However I’m not sure why we get a cap hit when no one is locked into lineups. So i got forced to drop him and now others . Still need to drop which is crazy cause I’m 400/400.
Send offers cause i need to trade one of my high prices guys to be valid
-
Idk some people think it's "strategy" but imo it's just lame and unfun.
-
Mario really chasing the dragon with that $51 bid
-
what’s the deal with running up guys in auction and then cutting them right after?
-
A friendly request: could everyone update their trade blocks (even if that just means clearing it out)? It's a little confusing seeing someone listed only to eventually realize that they're on a different team now lol
