League Message Board

Sorry for the confusion, I should've been clearer! Each matchup there is a limit of 9 Games Started by Staring Pitchers. This was implemented in our rules to help us not have to be concerned about streaming issues during the season.
So each matchup you get 9 Games Started by our SP no matter if that matchup is 1 week or 2 weeks.
All other positions are limitless in terms of games played or started.
-
9 GS per player or per position? Not sure I understand the idea or principle.
-
Reminder to monitor your Games Started: you get 9 GS per matchup even if the matchup is 2 weeks like our first matchups are!
-
I’m back in! Yay!
-
FYI for everyone: Amy (Loveable losers) let me know she's been having issues with internet and overall web access and because of that hasn't been able to connect to her team. She wanted me to let everyone know that she isn't ignoring messages but can't get to them. She's looking to remedy the situation soon and looks forward to playing :)
-
Got a fun preseason activity for us! Go to this google doc and submit your MLB predictions for 2021! :)
Predictions already entered for 3 of us: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ODIZS_anhERFXLNDl8zuTtJC1PIzMlfJK_jn6_pFdxs/edit?usp=sharing
-
Also, you can set lineups for days at a time (I often do and then check back in day of). I like to stack up my starting pitching as needed :)
-
Everyone (especially the new people) - Don't forget to set your lineups before Opening Day on Thursday. If you don't, you won't accrue points. This should be the page: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1212/setlineups.
-
Our schedule is now released and you can set lineups! :)
-
I am a pretty shady guy in general ;)
I like big trades and I cannot lie, you other owners can't deny...
-
What's with the Commish working up a 5 for 4 trade? Seems shady!!
-
I agree, the FA extravaganza has been really fun and interesting. All the tie-breakers and seeing how it unfolds has been bad for my productivity though lol
-
Pardon the language. And happy Irish day friends.
-
Shits mind blowing. Siskel and Ebert give it “2 thumbs way up”
-
And I’ve gotta say... this free agent auction extravaganza is exhilarating.
-
In all the years I’ve played Ottoneu, I’ve never been a part of a league from the ground up.
-
FYI: later this week the schedule for our H2H matchups should be generated which will allow us to start setting lineups. If you're wondering why you cannot set them yet, this is why! :)
On another note, definitely utilize Roster Organizer while you're bidding and creating your roster. It's an invaluable resource that I underutilized when I started playing!
-
30 minutes until the run of FA signings begins!

I'm trying to figure out how to bid -1 on Yadier Molina. Is that possible?
-
Reminders! Remember any tied bid will be broken by "coin flip" which means one of the bids randomly wins.
Also, check out rules for Adding/Dropping players so that you can be well informed for adding players this week! https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules#adding-and-dropping-players
Another important note, you can add players that would cause you to go over roster/budget limits and then make the cuts necessary to get your roster back to legal status. Make sure
-
Tomorrow is DAY 2 of the draft at 8pm EST!
-
For everyone new to auction page: you can click on positions under Find Players or type in a Player Name.
You can then click on the Nom. button that will put the player up on your page under Nominate. Type in your Initial Bid (or do $1) and click Start Auction.
-
Nobody better be spying my cheatsheet and thinking of taking Joe Musgrove away from me ;)
-
I really hope Denard Span doesn't go too high. My draft depends on it.
-
Shhh no need to bring up Cleveland players, everyone knows they are going to stink this year and aren’t worth any money 😜
-
Just over 2 hours away! Time to watch list all your favorite players and get ready for bidding wars for players like Shane Bieber and Charlie Morton
-
Reminder for Starting Pitchers: you will be capped to 9 Games Started per matchup.
Also, make sure to check out all league rules before draft time! Our top 4 teams will make the playoffs this year and we are playing with no divisions!
-
To clarify on Watch List in the draft room, you'll see a button to import your Watch List! :)
-
Draft Day is TODAY!!!!
Reminder: auction draft will start at 8pm, get on the page and make sure to open the auction page: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1212/draft to get familiar.
You can see any player you watchlist in the draft room!
-
One day from draft day and I'm not prepared at all lol. But, a couple of quick notes: definitely keep some pricing material handy for draft night so you know how much you're willing to pay for the players you like.
Also, you don't have to fill out an entire roster and often you shouldn't. After our two drafts it wouldn't be a bad idea to end up with 37-39 players and some budget remaining to add players in season.
-
TWO DAYS to draft day!
-
5 days to draft day!
-
Our league is full, our draft days are set, and resources for our new to Ottoneu players have been sent! We are officially ready for draft season! :)
-
hey everyone, dropping in for an update, I'm working on getting the rest of the league signed up so that we can take the next steps of organizing the league.
All the openings are currently claimed but need to get everyone signed up.
