So why would the Guardians front office, one of the top respected front offices in the game send him away then in just under a year of playing time in Cleveland? The Guardians main off-season goal every off season has been looking for an offensive-minded outfielder with power and you are telling me they just let this “GEM” walk away in favor of Oscar Gonzalez..Something does not smell right..
-
Home and away splits for Jones are pretty even last year. BA home .306 and away .288. He had 10 dingers at home and 10 away. I am not saying he is the next Troutor anything but also I do not believe his breakout was solely because of Coors field.

Where is all this Fantasy Baseball LOVE and FASCINATION for Nolan Jones coming from? People are making him out to be the next Trout or Judge.. The Guardians traded him for an infield prospect, 1 guy whose not in even a top 5 prospect on their farm and yet everyone is reacting to a good surprising year helped by the Altitude and this guy’s the next Savior of MLB…

Hey all! Friendly reminder that you have one more day to pay your league dues. Thanks to all of those who have taken care of it already!

I've gotten a few offers for Langford and sent out some responses. If any one is interested let me know or shoot me an offer!
-
Hey all! Friendly reminder that you’ve got until Wednesday to get your league dues paid. Thanks to all those who have already knocked that out!
-
Great news - welcome Kyle!
-
And just like that, we’re back to full! Welcome to Kyle who has taken over 8-Ball Vikings. Here’s your reminder to get your league dues paid before January 31. Paid dues = happy commissioner!
-
I’m still working on finding a replacement for 8-Ball Vikings and wanted to put out another call to see if you folks knew of anyone looking for a league. If you’ve got someone please let me know. Thanks!
-
Just a quick reminder to renew your team over the next 9 days. Several have already done so, but we still have a few that need to complete. Thanks!

Hi fellow league members.. I have been getting trade proposals for Strider and Cole, who are right now, the 2 top SP’s in the game.. Please know I am not selling low on either of them..Strider is worth 2 top hitters plus a young talented SP or top closer..Cole is worth at least 2 top hitters..We can include other players in the deal, but you need to meet that worth..If Strider was dealt right now to the O’s, the Braves would want Henderson, Cowser or Mayo and Rodriguez…SM

I'm going to mark 8-Ball Vikings as abandoned while I continue to search for a new manager for that squad. Let me know if you have anyone who could take it over. Meanwhile, happy trading!
-
It looks like we have a new owner for the former AKA Big Papi (currently Charlie Manuel). Welcome to the league!
-
Hey crew! Hope everyone had a great holiday. Y’all have been doing some work here before the deadline and I love to see it. I’m looking for replacement owners for both Papi and 8-Ball. 8-Ball hasn’t logged in for several months, didn’t arb (I had a proxy arb for him), and hasn’t responded to my attempts to contact him. If anyone knows of someone looking to add a league please reach out. It’s always better to add someone people here might know. Happy trading!

2023 AL Cy Young Award Winner Gerrit Cole available for 2 high impact offensive performers...
-
Hey folks! Here's your friendly neighborhood reminder that arbitration needs to be completed by tomorrow.
-
10 days left to get your arbitration in!
-
Sorry to hear that Big Papi - best wishes to you in recovery!
-
Please abandon this team. I was victim of a stroke on Sep 15, so I will have to quit my part time job losing my Ottoneu spending money, anyway don't have the same energy to manage so many leagues, will be quiting many leagues. Sorry to let you down guys, thanks.

Smallville, it looks like you have two cuts to make to get legal. If you could make those here soon I’d appreciate it. Thanks!
-
Great season everyone! Kick back, relax and enjoy some postseason baseball. Arbitration will start up in a couple of weeks!
-
Thanks Capa! It's been a fun season and you've got some runway to make it an interesting final weekend.
As for the commish role, I don't think anyone will notice a significant change. I commish several other leagues and generally aim for a drama-free environment of competitive managers. I only ask that if anyone develops an issue with another team, please come to me first before publicly airing any frustrations. Always better to mediate than scorch the earth. :)
-
Life has caught up to me a bit and I want to make sure things are in good hands here. 1. I hope to see everyone back next year! If you think you might not come back next year, please reach out to Dayton Dragons so we can plan accordingly. 2. Don’t forget arbitration! (~Oct 15-Nov 14); 3. While not official, it looks like the Dayton Dragons are going to take this thing this year. A big congrats on an extremely well run season!

Hey all, as we head into the last days of the season, just wanted to thank everyone for making this such a healthy and active league! We had some turnover since last offseason, but the new managers have been very engaged and helped keep things really competitive. A couple of quick notes before we wrap things up. First, I wanted to let everyone know that I am going to be stepping down as commissioner. I am going to stay in the league, but I am handing the reins over to Dayton Dragons. (cont)

Just a friendly reminder that the trade deadline is this coming Thursday. Get those last minute deals done!

Looking to move Scherzer, Nola, and Musgrove. Make me an offer. I'd like a young arm or two and some outfield depth in return.
-
Letting the league know that Semien is very AVAILABLE in trade..Looking for a Strider/Burnes/Gallen type SP in 1 for 1 deals or two #2 SP's perhaps with productive hitter in multi-player deals..In those deals, a middle of the rotation starter and/or hitter would be included with Semien...
-
PAPI, my dude, you are killing me 😂
-
Trea who?? You say he was considered the preseason's #1 SS? I need to do some research on this Trea guy
-
SS Trea Turner, who was considered
the preseason's #1 rated player in Fantasy, is currently available in trade..Looking for Top Starting Pitcher along with Top Offensive 1B or 3B with Power...
-
Justin Turner is available, if anyone needs very solid production out of 3B/1B.
-
Have put Alek Manoah and Ryan Pressly on Trade Block if either of those wets your whistle..
-
Put Alonso, Lindor, and Nimmo on the block if anyone is interested in one of them. I can't take all the Mets having a bad at the same time anymore.

Looking for a pretty productive 1B with power and/or a 1A top of the rotation SP..2B/SS Marcus Semien very available..SS Corey Seager could possibly be available instead, but the return would have to be both high end 1B and SP together...
-
Except for Max Scherzer and a few others, I would say the pitchers are definitely flustered over the pitch clock and are not making the adjustments..Carlos Carrasco had 2 violations on him yesterday and seemed flustered..The pitchers are pitching quicker than they want to, thus the speed is dropping some and hitters are "big time" benefiting from it..Absolutely love the all the contact we are seeing and the pace of games is outstanding! Looks like 70's and 80's Baseball...Love it!!!
-
Are the balls extra juiced or are pitchers who used to dawdle before the pitch not adjusting?

Just letting league know that am still looking to trade before season begins..The 2 main guys I’m looking to trade right now are RP Edwin Diaz and 1B/2B/3B DJ Lemahieu...1B Josh Bell could be a possibility to be dealt as well...Looking for good solid SP and/or talented productive OF’s in return...

We do have quite the legal team brewing here. We'll be at the US v. Canada game as well next week.

Also, happy draft day everyone! Don’t forget to get those watchlists loaded up before the draft.

So many attorneys play Ottoneu! Which games are you checking out in Miami? My wife and I are headed out to Arizona next week for USA/Canada (woo!) and Reds spring training (😬).
