• If anyone needs C, I've got 3 hitting over 4.5 ppg, and i just got rushing up, so i'm open to moving one (or 2).

  Brothers Baseball Club on May 16, 2025 9:26 AM

• Anyone interested in trades? I need OF. Though, I don't have much depth, but we could work things out.

  Just A Bit Outside on May 5, 2025 11:53 AM

• Yes, unless you are tied in the standings, then it's a coin flip.

  High Heel Sneakers on April 11, 2025 2:39 PM

• Huh
  Ok maybe I didn't hit submit?
  But it is lowest to highest in the standings, right?

  Just A Bit Outside on April 11, 2025 2:34 PM

• The system doesn’t have a record of your putting in a claim.

  High Heel Sneakers on April 11, 2025 12:40 PM

• Hey,
  How do the waivers work in this league? I put in a waiver for Brash but didn't get him.
  I thought it was normally lowest to highest in standings.

  Just A Bit Outside on April 11, 2025 12:35 PM

• Looking for 3B if anyone is interested in trading one.

  Brothers Baseball Club on March 23, 2025 12:23 PM

• Can we just call the season over? I'm in first right now so I'm ok with that. Haha

  Just A Bit Outside on March 20, 2025 7:27 AM

• I declare that the 2025 It's Otto Here draft is complete. We are free to auction, cut and trade players. Thank you all for a smooth draft and good luck this season.

  High Heel Sneakers on March 10, 2025 11:13 PM

• I’m traveling on business and will not make the auction on time. Probably be a couple of hours late. Sorry to miss out. I’ll pickup the scraps later good luck to everyone.

  ⚾️Otto Three⚾️ on March 10, 2025 8:47 PM

• Reminder: we draft tonight at 9 PM EDT. Please be on time and ready to draft. I will not have the automatic freeze out for missing nominations on, but I will do my best to be sure all teams nominate. See you tonight.

  High Heel Sneakers on March 10, 2025 11:32 AM

• Now 10 votes for the 10th. And 9EST is much better that 8EST. Gotta get kids to bed

  Atomic Oysters on February 19, 2025 10:51 AM

• Voted for Monday the 10th

  Just A Bit Outside on February 18, 2025 12:04 PM

• We have had eight votes so far on the Doodle poll. I'm keeping it open. However, the one day so far that is unanimous is Monday, March 10. So I have reserved the draft time at 9 PM EST, because some draft times are starting to disappear. But for the four teams who have not voted on Doodle, please vote.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 18, 2025 11:45 AM

• Submitted my vote.

  Who's Your Vladdy? on February 18, 2025 11:33 AM

• Voted, I could prefer 9 eastern if possible

  💸Minor League Moneyball💸 on February 17, 2025 8:54 AM

• Also I've set all times for 8 PM EST. We can move that back or forward an hour if that's a problem.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 14, 2025 2:10 PM

• Don't use the link below, use this one: https://doodle.com/group-poll/participate/avR4M5Xa I hate Doodle and all the scheduling software like it.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 14, 2025 2:09 PM

• Doodle poll link: https://doodle.com/group-poll/participate/bq64EM7d

  High Heel Sneakers on February 14, 2025 1:58 PM

• Okay the Sundays are out. They weren't chosen at random. I had two minutes yesterday morning, and I wanted to get something moving. You want a Doodle poll, I can do a Doodle poll. All the best, Chris.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 14, 2025 12:40 PM

• neither can i. that's why i suggested a when2meet instead of throwing out 2 random days.

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 14, 2025 10:45 AM

• Cannot do either of those days.

  💸Minor League Moneyball💸 on February 14, 2025 10:43 AM

• The 16th works for me. I cannot do the 9th.

  Devil Dogs Redux on February 13, 2025 6:12 PM

• March 9th / 16th works for me

  Kuhl Krushers 4.0 on February 13, 2025 6:02 PM

• How about a when2meet?

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 13, 2025 9:04 AM

• How about either Sunday March 9 or Sunday March 16 at 3 PM EST for the draft

  High Heel Sneakers on February 13, 2025 9:00 AM

• I'm good with either format. And I'm good with including or excluding the Tokyo games.

  ⚾️Otto Three⚾️ on February 8, 2025 11:16 AM

• Would prefer live draft I guess. Slow auction sounds like being “on the clock” a lot over several days. Tokyo series not a huge deal, but preference to have it done.

  Atomic Oysters on February 8, 2025 11:11 AM

• I'd prefer the traditional live draft. It might be feasible if everyone was in the same time zone, had the same sleep patterns, and work schedules. Probably after the Tokyo series. It's only two games as opposed to other teams rosters not being set yet.

  Hakuna Machadoless on February 7, 2025 2:05 PM

• It looks like the preference is for a live draft. My other question is does it have to be done before the Tokyo series?

  High Heel Sneakers on February 7, 2025 10:00 AM

• Prefer live but ok with either

  💸Minor League Moneyball💸 on February 7, 2025 8:14 AM

• I lean more towards a live draft, but I'm ok with what the consensus is.

  Just A Bit Outside on February 7, 2025 8:08 AM

  Hakuna Machadoless on February 7, 2025 7:32 AM

• I personally prefer the typical Ottoneu draft. Doing a slow draft where multiple players are up for auction at the same time fundamentally changes the outcomes. Slow drafts are better suited to a snake draft imo. We still have 6 weeks until the start of the season, and should be able to find a time that works prior to that.

  Who's Your Vladdy? on February 6, 2025 4:45 PM

• I'm all for a slow draft as finding a time that is conflict-free is always very hard.

  Catalina Wine Mixer on February 6, 2025 2:24 PM

• Fine with slow draft.

  💸Minor League Moneyball💸 on February 6, 2025 1:57 PM

• I’m fine with slow draft, Don’t have an issue with games in Tokyo

  Big Papi memories on February 5, 2025 6:59 PM

• And I always have 8 hour periods with no activity so we can sleep. If you really like the current auction system, that's fine. It's just finding a time is always a chore.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 5, 2025 5:22 PM

• nm, i believe it says 8h extensions

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 5, 2025 5:19 PM

• how much time is added per bid? i imagine this favors those who do not go to bed early...

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 5, 2025 5:18 PM

• There is a time limit that is reset with each bid. If you want to see one in action, you can watch here: https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=994

  High Heel Sneakers on February 5, 2025 5:13 PM

• is it a set time limit on each auction? or does the timer reset once a new bid is entered?

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 5, 2025 5:11 PM

• Slow draft is still an auction draft. Managers nominate players and auction takes place over a prescribed time period. Multiple auctions are going at the same time.
  I am in a bunch of leagues and finding dedicated time blocks to commit is difficult.

  Devil Dogs Redux on February 5, 2025 5:09 PM

• this is an auction draft, how would a slow draft work? slow pretty much negates the fun of an auction draft.

  Brothers Baseball Club on February 5, 2025 5:05 PM

• Never have done a slow draft, but whatever the consensus is than I'll go with that. I would say get the draft done before the Tokyo series. Don't those games count as points toward the season?

  Kuhl Krushers 4.0 on February 5, 2025 5:03 PM

• I would prefer the slow draft if possible. I also do not care if draft is completed before Tokyo series.

  Devil Dogs Redux on February 5, 2025 5:00 PM

• We have a full complement of owners, so we have to discuss the draft. First question: is there any interest in a slow draft through couchmanagers. Second question: if there isn't interest in a slow draft, do we have to have the draft before the Tokyo series on March 18 and 19. The rest of the season does not begin until March 27. Thoughts?

  High Heel Sneakers on February 5, 2025 4:56 PM

• Please welcome the new owner of the Bat City Bandits. He has one free round of cuts.

  High Heel Sneakers on February 5, 2025 4:53 PM

• Please welcome the new owner of the Brookfield Bombers. I've have played with him in another league, and he will be a fine addition to our league. Also, don't forget that the deadline to pay for the coming year and to have a legal roster is tomorrow, January 31 at 11:59 PM EST.

  High Heel Sneakers on January 30, 2025 10:58 AM

• New owner here. New to Otto but enjoying the format so far. Up for trades in the next 36 hours so send them if you got them!
