Here's a post from Niv.....
Here is a loose outline of how the next few days will go:
Today, 10/4 - I’ll be confirming stats for the season and making sure we captured all stat corrections for the season. This process will take most of today. No H2H results will be changed, but this may result in some movement in season-long leagues.
Tomorrow, 10/5 - Once stats are confirmed, I’ll remove pitching points for all teams in 4x4 leagues that did not hit innings minimu
-
Thanks for having us guys! We are long time keeper league players, first time Ottonu players. Text me or add me to Whatsapp 289-244-4762.
We are very active and love making trades.

Welcome to the league. I hope I win next year. I won my other league and that was pretty fun. Maybe you can help me.

Please welcome Matt and Dave as the new duo taking over for NatsFan.

Just a reminder to everyone that rosters lock after Sunday. Please have all rosters legal by then. No hoarding players on an illegal roster!! Arbitration begins October 15th, and lasts 30 days. Punish those playoff teams with your dollars (except mine 😃) and bring parity to the league. The trading window opens back up November 15th. Then everyone has until Jan 31st to choose your keepers for next year. Good luck to everyone, and thanks again for a great year!!
-
Congrats devers! Great playing with you all this season, looking forward to turning the squad around next year!
-
Thanks man, it was my first league of this kind and it was a blast. Definitely got lucky with the core staying healthy most of the year. Now Im just hoping I give a run at the hardest thing in sports - a repeat!
-
Last game is still in progress, but appears meaningless. Congrats to Devers for the well earned championship!! It was a tight battle with Hogs, but he packed in a ton of points in the final 72 hours to get the win.
-
Heck of a matchup so far, Hogs. Comes down to last 3 days!
-
Devers and Hogs swapped the lead about 4 times yesterday. 3 days remain and the lead right now is less than 1 point!!
-
7 days left in our playoffs. Devers has edged out to an 80 point lead over Hogs. Good luck to the both of you in the final days!! And speaking of final days, LoserNatsFan has let me know he'll not be returning next year. I am sad to see him go, he's a very good competitor. We have a two person management team set to take over his spot after this week is completed.
-
Looking forward to next season!

Welcome!

Hi everyone! Looking forward to joining the league. Let's see if I can take this team from worst to first
-
I did hear from one of the guys that is not returning, and his team has just been taken over. New guy is taking over whidbey's finest. Please make him feel welcome. Thanks!
-
My intention is to win this league next year! Yes. I am definitely in.

It's corrected now. Devers v Hogs for championship, and BLSH vs Nats for the bronze. Good luck to everyone!! My intention is to continue this league for next year, and hope everyone else wants to as well. If you are not planning on returning, please message me and I can work on finding a replacement manager for your squad. Thanks guys, for a fun season.
-
I thought Nats and I would be battling for 3rd place, but I guess not? I'm unable to set lineups.
-
Good game, Devers! Excited to find out who wins the championship.

Congrats to Hogs!! That's a hell of a week, and a well earned victory.
-
I'm getting murdered in this playoff matchup (great job Hogs!), but not in a panic because it's a 2 week matchup. Looked at league settings and noticed semi-finals actually are set at only 1 week. Wondered what dumbass chose that setting and put the whole season riding on a 1 week series? Looked at who the commissioner was for this league, and immediately identified the dumbass. Ouch.
-
It hurts being on the outside looking in. I had Max Scherzer, Max Fried and G. Cole lined up to pitch this week. The Beavers are out, but that just makes them hungry for next year! Great season.

That's what I figure it to be. The rules aren't real clear.

I believe it's record, but the tiebreaker is total points.
-
Playoffs is the top four teams. But is it by record or total score? (There's three of us tied going into this final weekend if it is by record). I need to know how nervous I need to be.

I have a little cap space and am looking to add some pitching. Send me some offers for guys whose salaries in the 5 to $15 range you'd like to unload.

Looking to trade for some cheap pitching, lots of guys on the DL. Looking to deal some of my offensive depth of $1 guys at multiple positions. Only stud I'm willing to talk about would be Mookie. Feel free to send me an offer all I can do is say no. Thanks!

Haha yes for sure I need some trades! Well if I’m n DC I’ll buy you a beer. Thanks man!
-
No worries man its all good. Its a fantasy baseball league, the shit talk is fun if anything. My day job certainly puts this stuff into perspective so no offense taken. Im glad youre back and active. And yes I am pumped to be doing ok as a newcomer, I simply didn’t want to embarrass myself but I’ve gotten lucky on some picks. I’m happy to discuss trades and get to know everyone here as well!
-
Ok last comment:
Devers I am sorry for my comments earlier today they were unfair and not helpful. Mostly I don’t know you and truth is you are probably a good guy. I am committed to doing my best every week in here and want to be good member of the league. PS you are killing it and especially for a newcomer. Have a great night and a great week all!
-
PS my name is Greg. And anytime you wanna chat let me know.
-
Ok man well the group chat allows us to chat more and get to know each other but you probably have neither the need or ability to do so. Is your wife with you getting home at 2:30? Or do still live with your parents? I’m guessing you live in basement of your parents house. Living the dream! PS you really are an asshole. I was hoping we would be friends.
-
Hey Whidbey, not sure why you’re also now being pretty aggressive. Is there an issue? I responded at 2:30 am when I got home for the evening and checked the league. DC is open for business post-pandemic so the good times were rolling. I’m glad you’re back and active. Gonna let the aggro messages go. I am not on the group chat as there is a perfectly functioning chat on the site here that we can use. I don’t feel the need to go elsewhere to message. Don’t be mad bro.
-
Devers? Why are you responding at 2:35 am to all these messages? Also, why not respond to any of my messages? Do you just want to be in a competitive league with no socializing and no interaction with others? Sounds like you maybe have a hard time getting along with people. It’s fantasy baseball dude it’s for fun. Don’t be an asshole.
-
Also this is my 2nd ottoneu league, the other having also been this year. I am a newbie just like everyone else here. I just wanted an active league, and when your response to my direct message was to do a trade instead of make things any more transparent or communicate to the league, that was a bad sign. I hope you can see where I'm coming from and look beyond the fact that it was your trade that was at issue here. It could have been anyone, the issue is the inactive owner.
-
You have a lot of vitriol and anger flowing as a result of pretty straight-forward complaints. I came to you when I was concerned about the owner's activity. You are the commissioner. Then when you made a trade, I pointed out that this wasn't the best look, given that owner is inactive. What exactly did I do wrong here? And those messages that you're reading as having bad tone have no angry words or vitriol attached, so really not sure why you have such an issue with me at this point. All good
-
You've clearly been holding a lot of anger at a rejected trade from 2 months ago. Relax, this is not that big a deal. You can do whatever you want, man, its fine. Yes, I told you there was an inactive owner, the owner didn't become any more active, and you went and made a trade with him where I think we'd all agree you win out clearly. Bohm is a negative value at his price at this point, Muncy has been a top 20 hitter. That highlights the fact that an inactive owner accepted the deal
-
Why isn’t everyone on the group chat?
-
Ok so to everyone in the league I’ll be active now and I understand how it all works. Also it would be cool if everyone got on GroupMe so we could chat more. Get to know eachother more. I bet we all could get together have a beer and talk baseball all day. Devers you are right I have been inactive and no excuses. If you all want to remove me I understand but I would like another chance.
-
what we'll do. I will cancel this trade, even though I shouldn't have to. I will ask him if he chooses to continue, and ask that he finish filling that roster. If he chooses to leave now, that will be his decision, not yours. You knew this was a league of ottoneu beginners when you joined up.
-
Here are your own words, not mine. "The guy is inactive and you trade for an elite player from him after I mention to you hes inactive?" That sounds accusatory to me. You're also the same guy that once told me a trade offer I made you was "borderline offensive" and that I should make better offers. The funny part is that both of those offers you turned down would have worked out heavily in your favor. So you have no business counseling me or anyone else on the tone of their
-
Would prefer if we just tone down the rhetoric here and make it about the issue at hand, and not personal attacks. This is fantasy baseball, not life or death. Just trying to keep a fair playing field. If you want to complete the deal thats fine, man, go for it. Im more focused on trying to get 10 active owners in here.
-
I did alert you to this team’s inactivity so this is not a result of this deal alone and I have not accuses you of anything, you’re trying to better your team clearly. I’m not so sure that owner is, however, based on their activity. They’ve made there two moves while essentially not making any other moves. This is why I think they should be removed from the league and the veto would be to maintain the team so that a new owner can decide on who they want, as opposed to a depleted roster.
-
I haven’t said any of the things you’re saying. It appears you are a bit defensive here. What I said was that this owner is inactive, has not been making moves to better their roster, and thus shouldn’t be allowed to continue making moves and running the team. The fact that its you making the trades is irrelevant. If an owner is not making any moves (he has a ton of injured players and the bare minimum active players and hasn’t been active on free agency at all, and didn’t set lineup for weeks)
-
He says I'm getting an elite player for meager returns, and that the only reason I made the offer at all was because he alerted me to Whidbey not being as active as he should be. Click on Muncy's player card here. In all other Ottomeu leagues in this format, he's been traded 5 times since spring training began. View those trades and compare to this one. If even 2 of you want to veto it, i'll cancel it right away with no questions asked.
-
If anyone feels the trade should be invalid, then by all means use your vote to veto it. That is how this works. No hard feelings on my end at all. The insinuation by Devers that I'm deliberately doing something underhanded and devious pisses me off. Look at the trade history for this league. I send offers all the time to most people in the league. Over 20 offers in May alone. I like to trade.
-
Whisbey hasn’t been setting his lineup for some time. I think its inappropriate for him to be making trades. This is the second deal where he’a giving away pretty valuable assets (Bellinger, Muncy) for meager returns and hasn’t set his lineup in weeks. I recommend we veto and find a new owner and leave assets in place for the new owner to have something to work with. Thanks for considering.
