I would be ok with it.
-
Yes next Tuesday works for me
-
830? I get home around 815
-
Good morning, everyone. Tomorrow night, 8pm starts our season with the first night of the initial draft. Quick question: Is next Tuesday, the 21st at 8 pm, ok for 2nd night? Thanks for everyone's patience and understanding.
-
Love the discourse. Seems like we have a good group! I look forward to getting to know you.
-
Thank you. Cologniacs.
-
I’m good for either one as well! Sorry I was slow to reply on here. Hadn’t checked it in a bit.

Works for me..let me know. Thanks.

Might change my team name to Burnes and Nola
-
Thank you Cease.
-
I can do either night for night two.
-
Thanks. 8pm for first night on Tuesday. 830 2nd night works.
-
I can do either day if we start at 830
-
Thanks Rhode Island.
-
I can do either the Thursday or following Tuesday. For that matter I can also do the next day, Wed.
-
We're also asking about night 2. As Bahhston says, we can make big push first night. Thanks all.
-
The time for night one is no problem for me.
-
Hey I’ve done this a few times. Everyone should take a quick look at the rules if the commission doesn’t have to pause the draft too many times, we can get through a large portion of the draft. Good Luck to everyone.
-
Thank you Toasted.
-
I'm very open to anything. I will be down to push through as much as others

Would love to get to midnight on first night. I will go with majority. Suggestions fir 2nd night is following Thursday at 8pm or the next Tuesday at 8pm. Like to hear from others. Looking forward to a fun and competitive season.

I am very much looking forward to the upcoming auction— my first Ottoneu. I am curious about some of the details. Is there a plan for when the first night will end (my personal preference would be to end by midnight ET)? When will the second night of the auction be held? Thanks!

If you cut Jose Canseco at $20, your salary cap cost would be $10. You would have the other $10. to spend as you see fit. The other $10. Is a loss. Hope that is best explanation.

To my understanding if you had $0 salary cap left and you cut a $20 player. You would have 10$ to spend until another team claimed the player you dropped. Then you’d have the other 10$ to spend.
-
Slight misunderstanding on the Players dropped, one an owner releases a player, 50% of his salary is charged back to the releasing owner. The other 50% is lost.

great thanks!
-
If you drop a player you get half of their salary back immediately, and if someone claims them you get the rest. Unless it’s a one dollar player. In which case you lose that money until they are claimed. We are drafting before the end of spring training so holding 10-20 could be wise.
-
Hope everyone is doing well. As I prep for the auction, I must admit that I am puzzled about how the Add/Drop process is going to work with the cap. My fear is if I spend all $400 at the auction, I will run out of cap space during the season and not be able to Add/Drops. That would not be a fun experience. Does anyone have a basic idea, if we need to save some cap space for Add/Drops and if so, how much is safe ($10, $20, $40)?
-
SusQ - You asked about a mock auction. Have you checked out Couch Manager? Just found it so not sure if it is what you are looking for but feel free to check it out.
-
Only limits I can think of will be total pitching starts for week. Managers have to plan which pitchers make these starts.

wow, well good to know. Its funny how when you read something you can totally miss the part that says H2H has no limits and then when you go there it is plain as day. Thanks guys!
-
It is my understanding there is no games played for position players. Obviously teams take games off, thus your 2nd player in some of those positions will start if you decide. Hope everyone has a great week.

I don’t believe there is a games limit for position players in H2H fan graph points league. Defer to the commissioner on this one though.
I am first time Ottoneu player, so am also reading up on roster construction.

Ya, I've been looking at the forums, lots of info but relatively light on lineup constructions. Seems to me we will be chasing limits all year. We will want to get all 10 starts a week, which will require about 8 SPs. We need to have 5 RPs starting at all time. However, with injury and ineffectiveness it seems like you will need at least 10 if not 12 SPs and 7 or 8 RPs. Then there is the games limit for position players. Anyway, seems like there would be a base number most work towards.
-
There’s really not one way. Really depends on your strategy. If you’re asking for advice, I would recommend the Ottoneu forums, as they have a lot of good content last few years you can search!

So any advice on roster construction? I'm thinking 2 C, 10 IF, 8 OF, 12 SPs and 8 RPs. Thoughts?
-
You could watch a YouTube video. That’s the best thing I know to do.
-
Wish i could help, but i do not know of one either. Notes on Draft (for new Owners) 1. Typically, 7 hours long broken up into 2 nights. 2. The interface works well, would get to auction little early to familiarize yourself. Looking forward to a fun and competitive season.

"Does anyone know if there's a way to run practice auctions with the same interface?" I don't know.

in every auction above $20, but may only win ONE of those auctions each offseason.

My thought experiments involve trying to emulate a real mlb team's idiosyncracies while succeeding. For instance, the 2020s Giant challenge is as follows: The team may designate 2 franchise hitters for a season. No ther hitter may play more than 3 games a week. Every non-franchise hitter must be facing a starter over which he has a platoon advantage. 2 starting pitchers in the starting lineup must have relief pitcher eligability. The Giants must be one of the last three bidders in . . .

I just added a (hopefully) fun idea to discuss in the new Discord server. My name there is Squirrel Weaver. I would love to hear feedback or similarly Left Field ideas.
