At a quick glance if anyone is interested in dramatically over-priced veterans please send any and all trade proposals.

Hi all! I've claimed Acuna Matata. I've played Otto for 11 years and (sadly) just won my first championship this past season. I'm excited to branch out to a new league. I'll be looking over my roster today and updating trade block. Certainly love to mix it up and look forward to a rebuild!

So, think he actually joined a team or two the other day, so I think he is out at the moment. I do think we should be fine with finding just one replacement pretty easily. But yea, he is probably out.
-
One of them left $2 on the table, and none of the arb dollars sticked. Acuna Matata tbd. I'll find out if the arb $ can be allocated for these two teams retro to the 14th. Field of Dreams, any news on someone taking over Acuna Matata?

Just to keep everyone in the loop, I am having someone from Otto Slack distribute arb dollars for 4526 who can't log onto the internet right now for some reason. Hope everyone is okay with this, as always happy to discuss if you have concerns but being a $50 per league it felt important to keep those $ in play for competitive balance.

One more week of arbitration left! Excited to see all those extra dollars on my roster lol and get back to the open market! So far it looks like 6 of 12 teams have submitted initial allocations, so hopefully we are on track to get 100%, minus Mr. Aucna Matata. Hopefully that slot fills soon. Spend your whole arb $25, or it won't stick. And lastly, the posted draft date is temporary, we'll collectively set a time and date in February sometime. Cheers!

Hey guys, know we have a few weeks left of arbitration. Probably with one team to fill as well in Acuna Matata. I have someone that is interested in taking over a team for sure. Is down to take that team, but know it has a lot of work. So, if any other team is available, he was willing to snag as well. Wanted to get this out there, so that they also could be able to be a part of the arbitration process.

After arbitration, which ends 11/14, player salaries update and rosters unlock. At that point we can trade and cut players.

SAME SIMPLETON EVERY SEASON????? WTF?? this is my first year, bombs away. Why you gotta be such a hardass everytime someone asks a question? This is my first year playing this format, but not my first playing ottoneu. If you don't like the discussion, YOU freaking leave, Richard.

nothing we can do about it, Zips. Everything about this season is somewhat of an outlier what with the late draft and absent manager & everything. Just reload and go in with a different strategy next year. Things will get better for u.
-
Acuña Matata couldn’t figure it out (in his head).
-
If you understood or wanted realism then you wouldn’t be posting about the catcher’s location. Yet here we are having the same conversation with same simpleton every single season. It’s here for a reason. It’s not going anywhere. And if you disagree or can’t figure it out in your head you’re free to leave.

plus, i cant move henry davis into an outfield position even though hes c/of eligible
Akron Zips on
August 10, 2023 7:29 PM

it just doesnt make sense to have 2 starting slots. if its the 162 game/platoon situation, then, like i said earlier, all positions should have that limit if the desire is for realism
Akron Zips on
August 10, 2023 7:28 PM
-
Probably because zips hit their max.
The 2 catcher slots for 162 game max isn't something we can change, it's part of the ottoneu format. The founder's explanation is basically what Bears said about being able to platoon and make it easier to get 162 games since "everyday" catchers play much less often than other everyday players
-
I’m mostly confused why it took until august for this to come up. It is a quirky roster rule, agreed . But not a new one. Why now?
Daaa Bears on
August 9, 2023 8:58 AM

Gonna have to agree with you, Zips. 162 is fine if there is only one catcher’s slot. It’s a weird oddity to even have 2 slots available. Not buying the catchers don’t play ever day reasoning .
-
Then, Bears, there should be only one starting slot for catchers
Akron Zips on
August 8, 2023 4:15 PM
-
162 for 2 catchers is fine I think. It’s a little funky but otherwise the only way most teams would get close to 162 is rotating 2-3 catchers daily based on who’s getting a day off etc.
Daaa Bears on

If that's the case with 2 catchers and realism, then 5 outfielders should divide 486 games and the 2b, ss and middle infielder should divide 324

Two catchers with a max of 162 innings is standard across Ottoneu points leagues. As mentioned earlier, catchers play the field a lot less than an everyday position player. Hence why there are two slots. It’s an added layer of challenge and realism that Ottoneu brings to the table for this game.

i agree, blue. could we look at that in the offseason? thanks!
Akron Zips on

While two catchers are technically not required, it still makes sense to have a 324 max with two spots
Blue Grit on

-
Two are not required. Very few catchers are everyday players, likely why there's two spots allowed to get the innings.
-
why do we require 2 catchers in our lineup, but only 162 games played to count? doesnt make sense
