Just a quick reminder that there is only about two more weeks to re-up your league dues for 2024, we still need about half the league to do so, so please do so at your earliest convenience. Thanks!

Hi all. I’m looking for a manager to take over a 16-team H2H non-Ottoneu dynasty team on Yahoo. It’s a fun competitive league that’s been running for 9 years. $40 entry with a unique payout structure that spreads the wealth. If you want to hear more send me a message!

Eight trades in the same league in about 90 minutes or less, got to be a record....lol Thanks for the action, building for 2025, so had to let go big pieces in Wheeler, Garcia, Jung, Greene, Yelich and Suzuki. Now I hope I didn't miscalculate the $$$ coming in versus going out. Hey that was fun!

Okay! We full 🎉🎉
I have the start date for the start of the Couch Managers slow auction for March 4th, 12pm eastern. I believe that was most agreeable time last year so unless there’s some objections let’s stick with it, enough time to plan and enough time before the season.
I’ll create the auction and import rosters after the keeper deadline and share the auction room as soon as I get that done. Excited for another season! Always feel free to hit me up with any questi

Hey everyone, still trying to get someone to fill the empty spot left by Lourdes. If you know anyone in any of your leagues or maybe even someone who would be new to Ottoneu who might be interested in this league let me know, I'd love to be able to get this spot filled up before the keeper deadline...Thanks and looking forward to another great season!!
-
Hey everyone Lourdes has informed me that he has to step away from fantasy baseball for the time being so that roster is available if anyone knows someone who would like to join the league! I've posted on the forum and slack but personal recruitment sometimes works too! Thanks
-
Last day of arbitration everyone! Then we're back live for cuts and trades just in time for the holiday season.

One more team advertisement.
Got an opening in a $100 5x5 if you're looking to get that category fix. Great league that just had probably its best season competition wise. Team is available to claim on the claim a team page.

Requiem for a shift arbitration - Hey requiem it shows you’ve allocated all of your arbitration dollars, but you’re still on RED, which I’m guessing means you didn’t allocate at least $1 to every team. Just fyi. I think you need to do that for your arb to be valid

Just fyi there is an opening in a $20 SABR Points league I'm in that also does a slow draft every year, here's the link to the roster if you're interested!

Little preweekend Arbitration reminder. Just 4 days left to get it done!
-
Hey all, one more week of arbitration left, so lets make sure we get that done before the deadline. Excited to get things fired back up again!! Also I'm open to discussion but some brief commentary on the Slack channel would suggest that we are going to remain a slow draft league, as long as there's no opposition I'll go ahead and make that part of the league description.
-
Hope all is well with everyone. Just wanted to shoot out a reminder that Paydala is now live and renewal for the 2024 season is available. Never hurts to re-up asap to help drive long term commitment in the league, obviously the renewal deadline isn’t until 1/31 but it’s always nice to see a good chunk of the league ready for the next season by the time arb is over. Paydala was pretty seemless and easy but let me know if you have any issues.

Please welcome Paul the new manager of what was Balco Babies and is now Diamond Dogs!

Division Series Six Picks is live! A little fantasy fix until arbitration rolls around.

Congrats Techwood on a great season!

Early congrats to Techwood Jackets on the inaugural championship! What a great season everyone, looking forward to some playoff ball and then onto Arbitration and the offseason! Please let me know if you plan to not return next year so I can start working on replacements. I think we had some excellent engagement this season and I’m looking forward to the future of this league. Thanks everyone!

Thanks for running a super fun league this year commish. I am excited for arbitration and keepers this offseason. Congrats to those in the running for the $!

Hey everyone! Just a couple reminders: first, auctions must be started by Friday night at 11:59 pm ET - after that, they shut down for the off-season. Second make sure your roster is legal when we hit the off-season. Being over 40 players/$400 is fine based on loans and 60-day IL guys, but if you win auctions this week, please still make the appropriate cuts.

@ $12 for Schanuel, wow! Lol

That’s a BIG MAN trade. Nice work guys
-
Haha no don’t be better, you should keep it up it’s the smart thing to do! I just found it funny with that slip up
-
CR - Fair enough point. Though, I only remembered that tactic recently ... so I haven't been able to do that for every single bid. :) I'll be better from here on out.
-
Thanks all. I appreciate the flexibility.
-
Lol. I definitely agree it was an honest mistake from FCU and nice of you to let him off the hook for it. Would be kind of funny if he got stuck with it though as he’s price enforcing every single bid on players he doesn’t want. I’d do the same if I were in 1st it’s smart, but would be a nice bit of karma if he got stuck wasting money after making us waste it too☺️ .but nice call on your part commish and def an honest mistake I’m sure
-
I'm aware of the ramifications of this move and fully believe they'll be immaterial in the grand scheme of things so I hope everyone is okay with this decision, if not please feel free to reach out and let me know I'm always happy to try and discuss. Hopefully we can just move on and continue to have a great season. Thanks all!
-
FCU informed me immediately after the Oscar Gonzales auction ended that their $3 bid was a total accident and that they only intended to bid the minimum $2 but winning the auction has now put them in that lovely cap hell situation I'm sure anyone who's played Ottoneu has been in before lol. I'm inclined to believe in honest mistakes and am going to correct this with a cap free cut, accidents happen and I would hope that a commish would understand if it was my mistake.
-
Thank you, Empty Flight! I upped my bid a couple of times today too. It helped to get the cash from Hoskins and Diaz.
-
I spent a lot of time today trying to figure out what my max Bibee bid could be without tearing apart my roster, was really hoping $7 would be enough lol nice work Dukes

I definitely meant to put Adolis in the lineup yesterday. 🤣🤣🤣

Just checked and its a 41 hour drive to San Diego from me so you might need some more ice to keep them frosty!

Wow what a great inaugural draft everyone, that was a ton of fun! I've gone ahead and skimmed through everyone's rosters for errors and fixed the ones I saw but please let me know if something is wrong. I'm going to go ahead and kick this thing off in about an hour to make sure there isn't anything I need to fix. Then we'll get this season started, can't wait. Thanks again for joining xOAA and being such an engaged group, I'm looking forward to this season.
-
Unfortunately if you wanted to be a one catcher team to start the season, it's possible that you may just have to end the slow auction at 39 players. I'm not entirely sure that this is how it's going to happen but looking at the settings I set up for the draft I'm pretty sure it is. I apologize for the inconvenience guys. I've looked to see if I could change it but it's not an editable setting.
-
Hey everyone, draft is going great! I wanted to get ahead of a possible issue that may occur with the way that I set up the Couch Managers auction. The way that it's set up is that we can only slot players with their noted position eligibility in the specific starting positions, I assume that this won't be an issue for most positions as with a 40 man roster benches are deep enough but where we may run into issues is with teams who may not have wanted to draft two catchers.
-
Quick poll over on slack, please respond when you get a chance. Thanks!
-
We’re live!
-
Alright! Auction will begin at Noon eastern tomorrow with 2 nominations a team. Please let me know if you have any questions. Looking forward to it!
-
Poll currently on slack for the start time for tomorrow's auction. Just for clarity the start time is just when we're actually available to start nominating players, auctions will run for 12 with an 8 hour extension time to start and we'll start with two nominations a piece. As we shift out of the pool of top players we can transition to 3 nominations and possibly shorter extensions, but we can discuss that as we go. Really looking forward to getting started!
-
Sorry! That's "MONDAY" the 27th not Tuesday.
