Also, is Mitch Keller....good now?
-
Schwarber can win or lose you a playoff spot all on his own lol
-
I just need Kyle Schwarber to keep destroying the world for just... 12 more weeks. =P I can smell a playoff spot!... Maybe. Probably not. But maybe.
-
Ha! I’m still reeling from losing Bryce Harper! Let’s take it easy on each other!
-
No mercy, Nick. Take no prisoners. My sinking ship needs help though, so Royce should take it easy on me.
-
Any help you can throw my way would be greatly appreciated LOL
-
Lol looking forward to a fun matchup this week, Harold! I feel bad I’m catching you at a rough time, but don’t worry since I’ll still find a way to start all of the wrong pitchers to give you a chance.
-
Losing has become contagious at the top of the standings, and we have hit the stretch run with nearly every team in it - except Swiss Crackers, who are officially eliminated from the playoffs!
Abra Kadabra Alcantara has a tiebreaker matchup against a fellow top team with more players on the IL than in the pitching staff.
-
Pretty good year going so far for our league with most of the teams still in the hunt for a playoff spot! Looking at the standings, El Mago Sho is having the roughest year with a top 4 points total but a 4-7 record!
-
Two big match-ups this week living up to the hype.
8-3 vs 8-3.
7-4 vs 7-4.
Only 8 match-ups left after this one!
Is there league chatter going on somewhere other than this message board? It's been pretty quiet this season. Should we revive the Slack channel?
-
The Reds are a disaster. But you know, where else am I gonna go right lol. From what I saw the best play made by a Cincinnatian that night you went was a dad catching a foul ball while feeding his baby.
-
I was at the Reds / Padres game tonight and got to watch Hosmer put up his 23 points! Fun to watch Profar in person as well. Alas, the Reds are a dumpster fire. And as a Cleveland Guardians fan, I merely chuckle.
-
TWO REMINDERS:
1) Happy Opening Day! :)
2) First matchup is rest of this week and next week, keep that in mind with your Games Started cap!

I would listen to offers for Guasman if anyone is interested. I need OF

Link to draft: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1212/draft
You can draft as many or as little players as you like. I personally like to leave a spot or two free.
After draft you can start getting your lineups ready, make trades, add players, etc - basically our regular season starts immediately after.
-
Also, do we NEED to fill all our roster spots tonight?
-
Draft App will be available from our home page, correct?
How many players need to be drafted tonight to fill our teams?
What happens after the draft?
-
Don't forget draft day is TOMORROW! :)
-
Hey guys! I started a new league and we just had our 12th manager drop out. One spot left if you any of you want to join! The league is called Jobus Front Office. The draft will be this upcoming Monday and the team is available on the “Join League” page.
-
I was travelling internationally as well, sorry I missed the discussion. Thursday, March 31st works great!
-
Hey all. Sorry, just got back late last night from being out of the country for the past week with no access to email. My how things have changed while I was gone!
March 31st looks good for me as well.
-
We have a draft day set! Thank you all for your flexibility and quickness to settle on a date/time. Let me know if you have any questions as we head into draft season!
-
With most of our league voting we have a front runner of Thursday, March 31st at 8:30pm EST. Please let me know by end of today if that absolutely wouldn’t work for you!
-
With 8/12 managers voting we have an updated frontrunners list. Please continue to key in on March 31st as the potential date when voting since we have consensus so far!
Thursday, March 31 (8 voted yes)
Sunday, March 20 (6 voted yes)
Wednesday, March 23rd (6 voted yes)
Saturday, April 2nd (6 voted yes)
-
We already have 6 responses! Current frontrunners:
Thursday, March 31 (6 voted yes)
Sunday, March 20 (5 voted yes)
Wednesday, March 23rd (5 voted yes)
Given that March 31 is the only date with 100% buy in so far please focus in on that date for availability!

Allllright everyone - we need to pick a draft day! Please be as flexible as you can - we got a lot of schedules and timezones at play here. We'll probably take around 3 hours.
Please select every option that could work so that we can get as close as we can to consensus!
-
With baseball back we'll get a new poll together for us to nail down a day/time
-
With baseball happening now can we get a draft date set?
-
So… this negotiation… are we going to have a season? LOL
-
Is there an update of what day we are drafting?

I have to get up for work at 3:30 the next day so it wouldn't be ideal for me weekends would work better
-
Final call on draft day - if March 22nd doesn't work for you please let me know today - otherwise I'll be setting our draft day to Tuesday, March 22nd @ 8:30pm EST
-
Update on voting results: Currently Tuesday, March 22nd is the highest vote getter with 10/12 managers voting for that date.
Question for the league: is Tuesday, March 22nd @ 8:30pm EST a definite cannot make it for anyone? Please notify me by Wednesday if that's the case - otherwise I'm assuming that the March 22nd date will work for us!
-
The next big thing for us is to choose a draft day. We have players across the US timezones so I have a poll set with start time late enough that EST folks can get kids in bed and West Coast can be sure to be home from work.

Welcome, Jared! So glad you’ve joined. ;)
Harold, what’s the rest of the timeline from here until opening day?
-
Don't forget that today is the trade and cut deadline!
-
2 Announcments for today:
1: Trades and cuts must be finalized by tomorrow at 11:59pm EST! That means trades must be accepted by then and cuts completed.
2: We have a new team manager! Please welcome Jared to our league who's taken over You play ball like a gurriel!
-
Also, if you need help with keep/cut decisions the fangraphs Ottoneu calculator is a good place to start: https://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy-tools/auction-calculator
You can set it to FG Points and adjust settings to get some ballpark values and help with decision making :)
-
2 more days remaining to finalize trades and make your cuts!
-
We are 5 days from the trade/cuts deadline!
Also, we now have an abandoned team that we need to fill, ideally before the deadline, let me know if you have a friend to invite!
-
Hello everyone, our trade and cut deadline is 10 days away!
I have a fun suggestion for everyone in the league - in Ottoneu trades are an essential part of the game, in order to succeed you have to grow that dealmaking skill. And nothing grows a skill like experience!
I challenge you all in the next 7 days to send 1 trade offer to each team, can be small or large! Take any offer you send or receive as a conversation starter or if you get a deal you like, slam that acc
-
Trade and cut deadline is Feb 15.
We are now up to 10/11 current managers are renewed. Let me know if you have a friend who’s like to play!

I've renewed! I'm going to start looking at trade offers now. We have until Feb 15 for trades?
-
We are up to 8/12 teams renewed! We are still looking for a new manager and hoping to get all teams renewed by Sunday!
-
Alright everyone, we have a new opening in our league. Amy of "You Play Like a Gurriel" has decided to not return for next season. Anyone have a contact they'd like to invite?
-
Everyone, heads up: we have 6 days to get everyone renewed for the 2023 season! We have 5/12 teams renewed currently. Let's get completely renewed by Sunday!
Renew your team ($20) here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/userdashboard
