I'd deal Vinnie P or Nolan Schanuel for an SP
-
Tentatively taking offers on Yelich, he's a pretty easy keep for me at this salary but obviously not helping me rest of season and would be willing to turn him into actual points to help win. I'd be looking for points probably anywhere? Idk just send me your ideas or just let me know if you're interested.
-
I gotta say in 2+ years doing Ottoneu I’ve never had a 300 point day before yesterday. Boy was that fun. Lookout Windrunner, 5 or 6 more of those and I’ll be right on your tail haha.
-
Anyone want my Kerry Carpenter for a 7+ PPG RP (if you have a surplus)?
-
I think I'm gonna need proof of life on Kyle Tucker...this has to be the worst shin injury known to mankind
-
Lol yes I've spiraled...oh well maybe Bailey is better than Realmuto anyways..
-
Oooof, been there! At least it wasn’t a spiral! 😵💫
-
What a dumbass...I cut TyLord and it makes my roster illegal....now I got to cut a higher $ player....yeesh
-
Will Brennan to IL mere hours after I win claim...some type of OF curse or something going on w my squad...I need to light some candles.
-
lol thanks fellas! Everything has been breaking my way so far for sure, lots of health and no sour grapes just yet.
-
Yeah it's a heck of a team. Great drafting + smart pickups + winning ticket in the LT Titans Fire Sale Sweepstakes is a tough combo to beat.
-
Hey commish...what are the chances you can bench your entire team for the month of July to give the rest of us a shot? Impressive team build!
-
Hey everyone! 👋

Hey everyone, was able to get a new manager for Cooperstown almost immediately lol, I appreciate everyone’s patience and participation to help make the decision to do this. Anyways please welcome doorbot!
-
I’m good whatever you guys decide. Hope everything’s ok with him.
-
Also there is a clause in the constitution in the League Description that requests that all managers stay active if anyone is feeling like we're being a bit unfair, Cooperstown was here as an original member of the league so I assume he's seen this at some point.
-
I'm with you GC, I think I'm ready to try and start finding a replacement for Cooperstown unfortunately, I've tried to reach him a handful of times and I really hope all is well, but I still haven't heard from him. As long as there is no hard disagreement here on the June 5 reset, which GC is right, lineups weren't even set for that day that he logged in, it'll be 6 weeks on Thursday from May 16 and tbh there was a stretch before that of inactivity as well, so my vote is to replace.
-
What was the verdict on amount of time before we replace an inactive owner? 4 weeks? 6 weeks? Looks like we had a one-touch login from Cooperstown on June 5 and nothing since then. Last login prior to that was May 16 according to earlier posts below. Not sure how much more of a pattern we really need to see here, better for the health of the league if we move on in my opinion.
-
Happy Father's Day to all you Dads out there
-
np. but after looking at the roster, had to make a name change 🤣
-
Team taken. Thank you Votto.

Hey guys, the owner I replaced in this league just abandoned his team in another league. It's league 183 Chick's Dig the Longball. It's a $100 league as well and it can be found on the Claim Teams Page. If anyone is interested in riding out the season with the team please give it a look. Thanks.

Welcome HS!
-
Hey Highway Star thanks for joining us! Just for transparency everyone Double Oaked informed me this morning that he was looking to cut back on his fantasy baseball commitments and that we could replace him if I found a new manager asap so here we are!
-
Welcome!
-
Hello everyone. I just joined your league. Thanks for the opportunity. I'm going to see what cuts I may make and then look into maybe reshaping the roster. Let me know what players interest you.

Honestly I’d probably say give him 6-8 weeks. If it were head to head I’d feel differently, but I feel like in a season long points league at least there are not a few specific teams being given an advantage due to one owner’s lapse in activity.
-
4 weeks is reasonable, but I feel bad for the person that ante's up for this season, and gets booted. Don't know the history obviously.
-
Same here, I’d say 4 weeks or a month is reasonable
-
I'd hate to see Coop go but I also understand we need competitive/engaged owners for the integrity of the league. I'll be fine with whatever the group decides but my vote would be for 4 weeks.
-
Alright yall, this is the second stretch of inactivity from Coopersville Braves. I'd really prefer not to have to boot them but I haven't heard from them despite a couple reach outs since they last logged in on May 16th. I'm inclined to say that since they have paid up we should give them a little grace but at what point of inactivity does the group think finding a new manager is a priority? A month? 6 weeks? ASB? I think before the trade deadline at a minimum.
-
I have received a couple of trade offers for Mookie Betts. I am willing to trade him for great young cheap prospects.

Hey yall! Happy Opening Day Eve!
I wanted to wish everyone good luck this season, thank you all for being here and making this an easy to run league. As commish I'm very appreciative if the civil conversation that was able to happen without anyone losing their cool, the message board is here for this type of stuff I I'm glad everyone felt comfortable enough to speak up in a respectful way.
One more day and it's BASEBALL TIME!
-
I just want to say that I appreciate this conversation happening, it’s important for everyone to know where things stand. I’m inclined to agree that unless collusion is afoot it’s tough to arbitrate what’s a good/bad trade, and it’s important to let teams manage as they choose. It’s also important to bring up the question though so I’m grateful for you starting the conversation Chosen Juan.
-
Fair warning! As the season gets underway, Vlad and his $44 could be a cut target of mine to free up cap space if I'm up against it.
-
Yea man it's all good. Noone has a crystal ball...run it as you see fit. Thanks bro!9
-
And for the record, I only joined this league in October. It's not like this team was the way I wanted it... this is just part of the process. In my mind, it makes sense now is as good a time as any to make trades.
-
I've got my objectives but I see how people could be upset if they feel like they missed out. By the way. Jose Ramirez at $48 is the most expensive 3B in the league. Framber is 30 y/o and has 399 IP in the last 2 years - not counting the playoffs. and I don't even know if the variability of a $10 RP is even worth mentioning...
-
Agree on both those points. I don’t think trades like this are at all healthy for the league, particularly when it’s a fire sale before the season has even started, but I’m certain there’s no collusion and I think everyone has the right to manage their team the way they see fit.
-
Holy fire sale Batman! Do I think LT won any of these trades…no but I’d only veto if I thought there was collusion and I’m positive that isn’t the case here.
-
Yea I don't see the value in the deal for LT but I'll never veto a trade for a myriad of reasons.
-
I know I'm brand new to this league and, respectfully, don't want to be "that guy". But giving the defending league champ $80 extra dollars to roster the top 3B, a top 10 SP and top 15 RP for some young guys who are...ok I guess? Please veto that lol.
-
Just a reminder yall that this league is OPL eligible if you finished 6th or better in 2023! Read more and join here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/
One of my favorite new additions to Ottoneu.
-
Would also move Busch for a small loan..need some cap space. He has 2B/3B eligibility.

Draft tonight! 📝📝📝
Can’t wait to see you all there 🎉🎉
-
We’re all filled up! Please welcome Bill the new manager of Jobu’s Rum. Draft is all scheduled and happy planning!
-
Hey yall! Fun day of cuts and a few trades lol. Just wanted to let everyone know that I abandoned Jobu's Rum, they were non-responsive to all of my off-season messages and ultimately failed to renew their league fees last night so I figured it was time to move on. I've posted the vacancy on the forums and in Slack but if anyone knows of someone looking to join Ottoneu or pick up an additional team please let me know! Thanks for a great offseason and I'm looking forward to the draft!
-
Keeper and Renewal Deadline today fellas! Good luck with all your decisions and can't wait for real baseball to start soon!
-
Hey all, there's an opening in league 1222 that just opened up. $250 5x5 with engaged and competitive owners (except for the guy that just left...ha). I pasted a link to the open team: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1222/team?team=8766.
