Exactly. Two slots, limited to 162 games. It's to try to mimic real teams as much a possible. I have two catchers I'll be shuffling in and out based on matchups. Some people take a starter and a real backup and just leave them both in. Obviously there are many ways to skin the cat.
-
Can someone remind me why we have 2 C slots? Is it just to make sure we get to 162 games, so we can start 2 some days to make sure we can get there?

Is there a single page that has every team's cap space?
-
Here’s the rule book. It’s helpful to have it bookmarked. I have to use it from time to time. Would recommend reading about the blind free agent auctions if it’s new to you: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
-
That looks to be the case. You can see you have 41 roster slots right now because of the designation. Ottoneu just does it for you regardless of where you slot the player. Bench, IL, and MiLB are mostly to keep your team organized.
-
Thanks, both! It seems to be indicating that Noelvi Marte's suspension creates another roster spot. Looking to confirm that, too.
-
Now that we’re done with the draft, all in-season free agent adds are by blind auction. You’ll see who nominated when it’s done.
You get 40 roster spots. 15-day IL doesn’t change that. Players on the 60-day IL do not count against the roster limit, so you’ll sometimes see teams with 41, 42 players. Yes, you can designate a healthy player as on the IL if that’s your thing. Players need to be active for stats to count.
-
Players on the 60 day IL automatically go on IL. 15 day IL doesn’t open a new spot.

Also, thanks for importing!
-
And what are the rules for IL? It seems like I can put anyone there and create an extra roster slot, but that's not right, right?
-
So it doesn't say who put the player up for nomination?
-
There were two errors importing the rosters. I think they were player IDs. If you have one fewer player in Ottoneu than you drafted in Couch managers. You prob have one or both errors.
-
Andybody who's still going should make a nomination and get your guys. I'm going to assume we're done when there are no more active auctions. With a little luck I'll be able to get the league over to Ottoneu tonight.
-
I'm done drafting
-
Alfredo and Pods, are you taking more guys?

Is everyone here in the Discord?

Great job everyone. We are rolling and are at 64% completion of the draft. I imagine we'll be done in 2-3 days. Keep in mind that you have to maintain enough money to roster 40 players (i.e. $1 per roster spot), but you do NOT have to walk away from the draft with 40 players. You can call it quits whenever you want and figure out the rest through free agency etc.
-
Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying that!
-
Chris BaseballPods is correct. Only auction players that you can find in Ottoneu.
-
If you are looking to add a deep deep player, you should check Ottoneu first. If he's not on Ottoneu you're out of luck. These leagues are deep, but they aren't dynasty deep.
-
"To clarify, we can only auction players in ottoneu, correct?"
-
But he's in Couch Managers. Checked that one when this started on Saturday.
-
We're not doing any off-system spreadsheeting. You can search for players in Ottoneu even though the league isn't on there yet. If he's not there, you're out of luck.
-
So Roki Sasaki is legal? He's not in the Ottoneu system.
-
A couple of the ones I looked for were in there. Thanks for clarifying - been doing this for a decade in my other dynasty league so I figured I should see if I can do the same here.
-
If they're in the Couch Mangers system you can. If not, you'll have to wait until we're back on Ottoneu (assuming the player's in there). You don't have to draft 40 players on Couch Managers. You can leave roster slots and money on the table.
-
Because foreign players are a special area of mine, can I auction off NPB/KBO players?
-
Added two more nominations for everyone. That comes out to 84 total, but the system caps it at 75, so we should stay maxed out it total even if we aren't all individually maxed out. Let's push through this thing!
-
I added two more on top of that. And I think I reduced the auction time to 6 hours and bud reset to 4 hours.
-
Added another nom for everyone.
-
If there's an auto pause at night, whats the disadvantage of cutting the time in half? That would be like a 4 hour slow NFBC draft

When are we opening up more nominations?
-
FYI, full transparency, I accidentally undid two bids on Joel Payamps. I thought I was using a regular tool and adjusting my high bid but it was a commish tool. It brought the current wining bid down by a dollar, but it reset the clock too. Just in case anybody noticed. I won’t do it again.
-
Looks like we’re well on our way. I went ahead and gave everybody a 3rd nomination to make. I want to see some auctions end before adding more but I plan to add one or two more tomorrow.
The draft will auto-pause from 12-8 (ET) but I think you can still bid and nominate during that time.
-
Once everyone feels comfortable we want max niminations/auctions going.
-
You're good. Just make sure you familiarize yourself with the interface and everything during this first round of auctions.
-
If this is delaying things I’ll do it tonight. Just wanted to do some reading tonight. Busy day!

Zito and whichever team is YRUNL need to make nominations and then we're at full tilt until tomorrow when I increase nominations.
-
Please read the league email. It addresses the nighttime pause. It also says we can adjust the settings. I just don't want to turn the dial too hard right as we get started.
-
sorry, night time pause was a dumb question. i didn't realize the timer resets for each bid.

We're live, guys. See league email!

No worries. We’re FULL. I’m out running errands with the kids but I’ll start it in about half an hour! Look for updates!

I apologize for the delay, I logged in couch managers as Ballan.

Yeah, join at 11 am. Don’t leave until Thursday. But just got done doing a home auction from my phone because a family thing popped up. Auction went well, cake came out when the reserve draft started, had to leave it to the queue for that. Driving to an ahl hockey game now. Let’s go!
