Trade block updated, let the hot stove begin!
-
Most are finished, but don't forget to do your arbitration if you have not.
Lima, you staying with the league?
-
Congrats Diesel Donnie! After a season of Ottoneu, I've decided it's a bit too intense for me, so please consider my team abandoned. Hopefully still time to get a new owner in for the offseason activities. Best of luck everyone.
-
Not sure with the season being over if that's necessary. If you click on the tool button up top that looked like a wrench and screwdriver, you'll see we start arbitration in a day, and the rest of the schedule. Basically we will all be making cuts during the off-season here that are penalty free. I wouldn't make any cuts until after arbitration. And then after that you'll have the opportunity to start making trades again. Basically you'll want to make all your cuts prior to the draft.

Welcome to the league. Just reach out to Diesel Donnie on what to do! 😜
-
Hello and Welcome! I would pay attention to the rules on how you score points. Its not normal scoring, the best way id describe it is the points stats are all based on the individual and takes away any element of the team the player is on. Example: no points for RBIs as thats very team dependant.

Congrats bro! 3/4 years? Holy hell well done.
-
Congrats Diesel and to all a good season. Best of luck in your offseason planning, see y’all next season!
-
Congratulations do Diesel Donnie on taking the championship! Thought I was gonna win this year...
-
Congrats to the winners this season. It's been great playing with you all, but I just took a new job and I have to take a big step back from Ottoneu. Best of luck, and please mark my team abandoned!

That Gunnar trade 👀
That's a big boy trade! Love to see it
-
RIP Willie Mays

So I guess we have a new owner for youngbloodz. Hooray. Welcome new youngbloodz.
Prepare for about 36 trade offers
-
As is tradition, we are currently looking for a new owner for Youngbloodz. 3.5 seasons and this will be the 6th different owner.
I have been sending him regular messages since the start of the season with no responses. The last time the previous owner logged in was 5 Apr. I messaged him again yesterday saying today was the deadline. No response. I have marked the team as abandoned. Any owner can claim the team. Hopefully they stick around this time.
Cheers
-
There was an errant waiver claim on Jacob Misiorowski for $2. No one else had a claim in. I added him directly to the Charlotte Little Kitties.
-
I think now is the time to ask for peak value from Joe Musgrove. He just had a negative 40 point game in 3 IP. So, if anyone wants to offer me a ham sandwich or an expired coupon, let me know. Accepting all offers
-
If anyone wants to "blow me away" with an offer for Skenes I will consider it.
-
Hope springs eternal and the Reds are winning the Central. All minus our starting 2B, starting CF, top SS rookie, top SS prospect, a legitimate ace, a functional #2 SP, or a bullpen that doesn't blow dead bear.
Seize the means of run production, comrades! Viva la Reds!

This wait was awful, good luck everyone!

Official ruling on the cutting of Kelenic: It stands
The Youngbloods owner officially took the team over on 13 Feb, after the official cut date. This is the sole team that the owner has and he has only been a member of the Ottoneu community since that date. There were some technical issues with him gaining control of the team prior to the cut date.
It shouldn't have a major impact on the league as a whole and I hope the auction goes well for everyone. Everyone except B
-
That makes sense
-
Section V Adding/Dropping Players
i. If a team's manager changes, the new manager is given the opportunity to make one round of penalty-free cuts

-
not sure how that cut went through. Looking through the rule book now.
-
yea they should be. Not sure what happened there. My cut player tab says I cant cut anyone. Ill look into it.

Welcome back to league, Youngbloods! We missed you
-
Crazy for sure, awesome I ain't sure. It's easy to claim teams with players you like, but managing the teams is quite demanding, lineups took me 3-4 hours a day last season, OK I'm retired but....... Last year I said it's over, I'm keeping 20-25 leagues tops and look where I am, next year for sure I have to go under 50 (won't have the choice I stopped earning a little extra income son won't have that much money to spend on Ottoneu)
-
At this point I'm assuming you farmed out some of the management duties to a team of Vietnamese kids 😂
-
Papi, be honest with me, how tf do you manage so many teams? It's crazy and awesome
-
Everyone probably got the email that we lost an owner. However, it's more of a technical error as there was an issue with payment. It's being resolved now and we should have the previous owner back today or tomorrow.
-
Answered so many polls, maybe I'm the 12th guy, no problem with this date and time
-
Still waiting to hear back from 1 member, but the draft is scheduled
12 March at 7pm
Confirmed 11/12 can be there and it's the best option we all got right now
-
Sorry to hear that, best of luck
-
Sorry to hear about your mom. Good luck!

Hey all, I'm still planning on participating this year but I'm flying home at the end of this week for an indefinite amount of time to help my mom through chemo. My schedule is all over the place now, so go ahead and schedule a draft time that works for y'all and if I end up not being able to make it then I'll find a proxy.

Yea I saw that, wasn't sure what to make of that. The other league I'm in said the 28th so I kinda trusted they knew better lol. The top two picked dates on the poll are Feb 27 and March 17 so should be safe either way. 4 people have not taken the poll yet. Gonna give it a couple more days.

The first series is actually March 20-21 in Seoul, Dodgers and Padres, fwiw

This is my first time setting up a Doodle poll so hopeful I did it correctly. So, Savannah and i have weird jobs, we both have 10 hour shifts over the weekend not allowing us to draft on the weekend. We are polling for tuesday, wednesday and thursday nights and hope we can make this work. Season starts March 28th. Looking at 7PM draft time, this isnt as important and can be adjusted if needed. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/bk6jo8Ea

Fair warning, 7 hours and 44 minutes until the no penalty cut deadline. If you wait until after, you will be charged half the salary cut as a cap penalty.
-
Friendly reminder that the deadline for cuts is tomorrow night! After cuts are made we will get a survey out to come up with the best date for the draft.
