Well if we we are gonna have a league, I'd love to stay!
-
Alright even if my commissionership is only temporary, I'd like to get things in order as much as possible and start looking for new owners to fill our openings. Over the next couple days I'll be removing owners for the following teams based on their messages here:
- Bryce Krispies
- The Clem Fandango Nine
- Sign Stealers
If anyone else won't be continuing on with this league, please shoot me a message letting me know. Thanks everyone!
-
I'll reappoint Sometimes Maybe Good as commissioner in the interim and feel free to reassign or add a co-commissioner
Wishing you all the best of luck

I'd strongly prefer to not be commish lol but I'll sign up to be the last ditch option if no one else wants it
-
i like my team coming back healthy for next year - can someone step up for commish?
-
We've still got a solid half a league though if we have someone to step into the commissioner's role... Shouldn't be too hard to fill the rest!
-
Lol well that escalated quickly
-
🤣 going down the tubes isn't it
-
Lol yikes on this league - I guess I’ll leave too since we don’t have a commish, and losing like half the league
-
Hello all. I've got too many leagues rolling lately. I appreciate this league but I will have to abandon this squad. Best of luck to everyone!

Sadly, I'm going to have to bail out too and abandon my team. I've had a lot of fun playing with you guys and hope the league goes on for years. Thanks for letting me participate.
-
Unfortunately I will not be continuing in the league as with life changes this year it is too much to manage a daily league. I apologize for my absence the 2nd half of this year.
If anyone is interested in taking over as commissioner please let me know and I'll make those changes.
Wishing you all the best!

Hi Commish and owners, congrats to the winners, wanted to say it's been a pleasure playing with all of you this season. Got way too many leagues and cannot maintain the rythm (time consuming and $$$). So I won't be renewing many of my leagues like this one, got some talent to attract new owner for next year so you should be able to quickly fill vacancy. have a good arb and a great future season! Thanks Commish for great work

Lol, 5 bids for Birdsong at $1, $2, $3, $4, $5 respectively. Don't think I've seen that before

Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there

Catcher is a platooning position - see https://community.ottoneu.com/t/two-c-slots/1473 per NivShah

Why do we only get 162 catcher starts if we have 2 catcher slots?

Looking at creating cap space by trading Yelich/Bichette/Miller this morning/today with no loans attached. So I can be more active. Thank you

Apparently today is auction day

Thank you everyone for the smooth and fun draft. Auctions can be started now and trades can be executed. Good luck this season!

Reminder: the draft is in 22 hours. If something has come up, please notify so we can try to find a proxy as opposed to your team having to go through auctions post draft

Update: We don't have any "No" for the draft now. Two maybes but I think we're in a good enough spot that we can confirm this date. Plan to see you all in 9 days for the draft.
Reminder to have your queue set up in the draft to allow for a smooth and efficient auction draft (you can access the auction draft room and nomination list now)

I have tentatively set the draft for February 23. I will be reaching out to the 2 managers who haven't responded to the poll and the 1 maybe to confirm
Bryce Krispies on

Friday February 23rd is looking good on the poll! 10 responses in, zero No's.
-
I've heard from 5 of the other 10 managers and it seems the league is in agreement that we'll follow the written rules and not process any trades at this time. I'll coordinate with Horace to get that round of penalty free cuts in.
In the meantime, please complete the auction draft date survey if you haven't. If you believe additional slots or times need to be added, please let me know and I'll add.

I agree with Votto's Last Stand and Sometimes Maybe Good

Agreed. Get the team legit, and we can schedule the draft.
-
I say get it legit and then just leave it. The auction will take care of the rest. Would be hard to ensure good trades. Hopefully someone claims that team.

My preference is always just to follow the written rules as closely as possible - so cuts to get the roster legal as soon as possible then no transactions until the draft. I think *discussing* trades is obviously fine at any time, but the assymetric negotiating an illegal roster enables is a weird situation to me, so I'd just prefer for all teams to be legal asap.
-
I will ask for the league to chime in but my lean would be that you get the roster compliant and then can discuss straight trades with no loans for a small window (to offset claiming the team after the deadline - previous owner fault)?
If the league thinks the roster should be fully locked out beyond cuts - that can be the path.
Looking for a number of managers to chime in here

This would be purely for knowing who to allocate to each team after the draft. If someone wanted Burnes for a $20 player (for example) and have the rest covered by a loan from me, that’s kind of the structure of deal I’m looking at right now. So they get Burnes at the cost of the player they are trading, and don’t have to bid for him in auction
-
There are no trades until after the auction
-
Corbin Burnes, Mason Miller, and Christian Yelich are on the block. I’d be willing to cover cost difference in a potential deal for anyone interested
-
Please find and complete the poll at your earliest convenience. I have the earliest auction date set for 2 weeks from now ranging to the week before opening day.

Hi all. Taking over Got Matsui and curious of any interest in players currently on the team before making cuts. I'll be looking to make the cuts pronto. Thank you
-
Later this week I'll be sending out a poll for dates and times for the auction this year. Based on the player count we are likely looking at a 2.5 hour draft. I'll "book" for a 3 hour window to be safe but as we are all experienced, it should be a quicker draft.
-
Hi everyone, I apologize for the lack of updates and reminders the last 2 months. Very busy time but I should be more active now.
As for where the league stands, we had 2 teams not renew this offseason.
Unfortunately Got Matsui did not make their team cap compliant before cut down day. Unless there are any creative solutions, I think that the new manager will have the slight advantage of knowing the player pool while making their cuts upon claiming the team.
-
Any plan for getting Got Matsui's roster legal?
-
Welcome to the league guys!

Same here, just joined a few weeks ago! My arb was done before I joined - I know it’s last minute but is there any way I can edit the allocations that were in place? Thanks!
-
Best of luck MM - i just joined too!
