Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays all. I am on the hunt for SP, 1B, and MI depth. I have a lot of younger guys on cheap contracts and am willing to move some of them for better depth at SP, 1B, and MI. Thanks.

I'm in Chicago as well, and also have a CBS league, hah. Welcome Pat and all new additions.

Thanks for having me! I’m in Chicago. Been playing Ottoneu since 2019 and this is my 3rd team. Also in a CBS “home” league. I’ll update my trade block later this week.

We have one open team (Vinegar Hill) that I’m currently looking to fill.

Hey, do we have any open teams?
-
I updated my block, and noticed several others have as well. My policy is that no one is untouchable...I'm just focused on moving some more than others. I have quite a bit on the block, and I think I've got some good value out there. Hoping to work out at least a few deals over the next few months! (Hopefully the CBA negotiations don't impede player movement too much)

Last day to tweak arbitration amounts! Trades open back up tomorrow.

Welcome, new managers. The off-season is a lot of fun in Ottoneu leagues.

Good morning! I'm the new guy. Thanks for having me. Looking forward to a good new season.
-
Arbitration starts tomorrow! Also, the automatic salary increases (1-2$ have been applied).
Also an update on owners for next year: We have 2 (potentially 3) teams that will need replacement owners for next year. The first new owner is chalwa, who will be taking over Tiny Dish Mop. Welcome chalwa! I hope to have the other spot(s) filled in the next few days.

Once arbitration is done, the cap penalties are removed. Then it is many months of offseason haggling, figuring out who to cut, who to keep, who to trade--all while having penalty free cuts.
-
I believe 10/7 cap penalties are supposed to be removed, but they might be delayed a day. I'm relaying info from this End of Season megathred:

Paid up and ready to roll for 2022. Just a quick question, when does the cost associated with drops get cleared off for a season? -- Crazy Birds

I am still in!
-
I'm all in for next year! Looking forward to arbitration - was one of the big selling points for me on this league. Curious to see how it goes and where dollars get allocated.
-
Me too!

I’ll be back too

And it would also be great to get confirmation from everyone that you plan to return next year (or if not), so we can replace any team owners if needed before the offseason/arbitration gets started.
Blue Jays on
October 6, 2021 2:15 AM

Just a reminder that arbitration starts on Oct 15. If it's your first time with Ottoneu arbitration (I think it is for all of us), please read up on the rules and ask questions if you have any.

Good game, Rearden! Thanks everyone for a great season... and now the off-season begins.
Blue Jays on

I was finally able to put up more points than Blue Jays...2 weeks too late.

Hung around for a while but it looks like that Montgomery start will be the nail in my coffin.

Yes, those dates are roughly the same year to year
Blue Jays on

Is it a safe assumption that (other than potentially draft day) the league calendar essentially just moves ahead one year for arbitration, drop deadline, etc?
-
Same here! I have no doubt you are the better team coming into this, so may the worst team win!

Was a fun battle for the division this year. I really sold out to win this year, going to be a lot of tough offseason cuts!

Man I am so disappointed that I missed out on the OPL by one spot in the standings! Good luck to the teams from our league that make the OPL next year. You guys killed it all year.

Well said - you can't complain about injuries because Blue Jay's endured the loss of Trout, but you can complain about your match-up in the playoffs, as you would've defeated both of us. Whoever wins our side of the match-up has to face that beast in the finals...
Rearden Steel on

Man, I'd love to complain about my team hitting the IL early and often, but I'm not sure that killed me. I think Blue Jays just made all the right moves, and acquisitions. Well played brotha, and everyone else this season. Here's to next season, and our ability to enter the Prestige League next year! Cheers everyone! (I know, there's still 2 weeks left)
-
Just a reminder to all playoff teams that matchups are 2 weeks long (with the GS cap resetting after the first week).

Lineups should be working now. If it’s not working for any playoff teams, let me know

I’m locked as well

Also locked - might be due to playoffs starting tomorrow?
Rearden Steel on

Trying to adjust my lineup for tomorrow, but it seems to be locked. Anyone else having the same issue?
-
Looking for a back-end SP in the 4ish P/IP range or an over-priced offseason drop candidate. IL has been killing me the last two months, and need some depth. I don't have much to offer, but could give someone like Eflin who is likely being shut down this year, but should be keepable at $6 next year. Feel free to send any offers before tonight if you fit that description.
-
Just a reminder to everyone that the trade deadline is this Tuesday (Aug 31)

Very cool Field of Dreams game last night. Glad they're bringing it back next year.
Queen City on

The FOD game is going to be pretty cool - sorry it didn't work out for Rizzo. The "business" aspect of baseball is tough on players, but it hits fans pretty hard sometimes too. I feel like the 2016 Cubs were poised to take over the world, but 5 years later it looks a lot differently. Baseball is hard.
-
I'm a die hard Yanks fan who moved to Chicago 10 years ago, adopted the Cubs as team #2. My recent wife is a die hard Cubs fan, was not happy when Rizzo got traded. Her family is from Dyersville and we were trying to get to the Field of Dreams game, but didn't get it, but have tickets to both Sox/Yanks games in Chicago next week. Damn, Rizzo on the IL is a real bummer. Sucks for Rizzo to miss the FOD game, but miss his last hurrah in Chicago...weak.
