Good luck to everyone in the playoffs! Cool to see a rematch of last year’s Crazy Birds-Rearden Steel semifinal.

I'm looking to add SS depth. Let me know if you have a SS you're willing to sell (I've sent some offers out too).

Just a reminder to all since I just checked today (correct me if I'm wrong) but next scoring period spans roughly a week and a half, but still has 10 GS cap. Plan accordingly.
-
Jacob DeGrom is available and I’m willing to pay his salary for the rest of the year. Send those offers my way. Looking for SP depth.

Just wanted to let you know that I'm headed for a vacation. I'll be slow to react to trade talk and offers in the upcoming weeks.

I'm looking to move prospects for better quality MLB players, especially SPs. Send me your offers.

That’s my understanding.
For future, I don’t think the site will allow proposing trades when in an illegal state (similar to how it doesn’t allow setting lineups), so hopefully it won’t be an issue.

I wasn't keeping up with this this morning, just so I know for myself for future reference...
Was the issue that a trade processed after he had won an auction that put him into illegal roster? And because the trade was proposed before that auction closed, we're good?
I'm fine with all that and thinks it makes sense, just want to make sure I understand what was in question in case it is relevant again
-
I didn’t realize the offer predated the auction win.

Niv says the trade was proposed 2 days prior to to auction ending so it’s legal. I stand corrected.

Rule v(d) prevents proposing trades, but previously-proposed trades (and bids and set lineups) will still process - rule 1(b).
I think rule 1(b) is also what Rearden is referring to (how long can a team remain in an invalid state after winning an auction) - I agree that we can decide on this as a league/ have a league vote. I’d be hesitant to set it as less than 12 or even 24 hours, understanding people sometimes have real life commitments, but I’d be good with whatever the league

Here’s the rule: “Teams are allowed to bid such that they would go over roster or cap limits if they win the auction. If they do win the auction, they will have to get under roster and cap limits before they can set their lineups, make trades, or bid on other auctions”

Based on the conversations I have heard (podcast mainly) in the past, I'd assume Niv would defer to the league to settle first. My vote would be to ensure the team is legal before the trade processes, but I don't see reason to rescind the trade unless the team consistently in violation.
-
Blue Jays are in violation of Ottoneu rule V, section d. You need to rescind the trade and cut until your roster is valid. If you disagree we can ask Niv.

Ouch - I was disappointed by 4 separate pitcher starts with a negative number but golly...
-
Good thing I had Cole to dig me out of that....oh.
-
I lost last week by 9 points...driven partly by a terrible performance by Chisholm and a benched start by Grey. So I swapped...and sat 2 HRs from Jazz today, and currently have -12 pts through my first 3 starts...
Right there with ya, brotha...
-
Unlucky. That’s like the hitter equivalent of benching a no-hitter
Blue Jays on

Remember that time that I benched a player, and cut him on a night that he he hit 3 HRa and put 40 points on the board?
-
Correct, unless someone else picks them up, or until the season ends
-
Quick question - once a player's cap penalty has reduced to $1, it can't go any lower, correct?
-
This is an imperfect tool because it’s designed for redraft roto leagues, but when I get a trade offer I like to run it through the 5X5 OBP setting to see how it stacks up to my perception.

2nd and 3rd division winners play each other in 1st round of the playoffs with the winner assured at least 2nd place and a profit. Get some!

Standings look like we play with relegation in European soccer. There is clearly a first, second and third division.
-
Some good playoff races shaping up! Although the differences between the divisions so far is pretty crazy

After an 0-5 start, I am roaring back into contention with a 2-5 record has me tops in my division (!?). Don't call it a comeback, I've been here for years...
-
Thanks, happy to have him, though I think my team needs more than a RP to get things moving in the right direction...
-
As the dummy who dropped him, I must say kudos to Rearden for stealthily grabbing the Nats’ closer for a buck!

Welcome to the league. Your team is doing way better than mine. So no reason to worry about the challange ahead. ;-)
-
Thanks! Looking forward to the season. This is going to be a challenge!
-
Hi everyone - just a heads up that a new owner will be joining the Midwest Silverbacks. Welcome!

Hey guys...this first scoring period goes like 10 days, right? Just trying to game out my 10 starts

Happy Opening Day!

Draft day!!

Just a reminder that the draft is coming up - next Wednesday, March 30th, 8pm ET.

For anyone that is interested, Ottoneu Prestige League signups are open today.

They argued just long enough to ruin my plans to fly down to Arlington for the Yanks' opening day...
Oh well, glad they're back. Hoping the final stretch of FA is a big frenzy. Got a few fantasy drafts to schedule.
-
Happy day!! 162 games, 9 inning doubleheaders, no more ghost runner. Let's go!!
-
Thanks for everyone who indicated their draft date availability. Looks like March 30th, 8pm ET works best.
Hopefully we’re able to get a relatively full season in!
Blue Jays on

Today is a big day whether we get 162 or more canceled games but just wanted to check in what we were thinking for a draft date?
-
Please use that link to select all the potential draft times that would work for you (hopefully it will help us find a draft date that will work for everyone). And don't forget to select your time zone when filling out the times. Thanks! Let me know if the link isn’t working for anyone.

I sent around a link for everyone to indicate their availability for a draft date. If anyone has not already done so (or did not get the email) here is the link:

I’m hoping to finalize a draft date in the next few days.
Blue Jays on

Should we start thinking about a draft date?
-
Anyone looking to make any last minute deals? I have a bounty of prospects I would be interested in talking about.
-
Just another quick reminder about the Ottoneu payment due today.
Blue Jays on
January 31, 2022 3:47 AM
-
And as an addition FYI, per Niv in the community, that date won't change due to the lockout. Only the keeper deadline may change again.
-
Just a reminder to everyone that the payment for the 2022 season is due Jan 31.
Blue Jays on

Just a PSA for anyone who hasn't seen yet that the keeper deadline has been moved to Feb 15th due to the MLB CBA issues.
