That’s awesome! The good ol days.

Fun story. At a work retreat and I keep seeing this guy I recognize. Can't place him but see him two or three times over the course of the day. Later that night, at the bar, there's Frank Thomas chatting it up with Tom Glavine. The guy I couldn't place? Greg Maddux. They're all here for a wedding. Thomas is fit and trim and looks younger than he is. Maddux looks the same. Glavine is a silver fox. The years have treated them well.

I like that pickup of Davis for Coors! I thought I’d snag him cheap.

Mitch Keller, ladies and gentlemen!

I've got a spreadsheet with far too many formulas that I'm trying to predict the final standings of the top 3. It's torture to watch it fluctuate each day. Just for fun here's what I show as my predicted final standings. A lot has changed in three days and this is the first time that I've claimed the top spot in the model.
1. Charlie Blackmon's Antibodies - 18,482.54
2. Sunny Meadows - 18,479.76
3. Triples is Best - 18,026.11
-
It’s not a day that ends in Y if I don’t give up 4-5 HRs lately. Yikes.
-
Perfect time for my pitching to just implode, too.
-
Looks like we’re in for an entertaining stretch run. Best of luck!
-
i would consider offers for Shohei if they include two good SPs.
-
Updated my Trade Block. I may have some useful players if anyone is looking for veteran help.
-
Taking offers on Soto. Not looking for any 1B or 3B or any A or AA ball players

So, I've been trying to get two different friends who wanted to check out Ottoneu to co-manage with me. However they've both got cold feet on it. So I'm going to ride things out for the season best I can. Not opposed to trades, etc. but it might take me a longer than usual to accept or reject. I'd do so with the spirit of the Savoy Specials in mind too; nothing haphazard! So, you're stuck with my for the second half. Perhaps by then my SabreAI app will be ready...
-
Happy all star break!
-
Lol!! What?!?! Ok, your loss ;)

Great, I'll take Elly off of your hands like I've been trying to do for the last two years. I'll be on the lookout for an offer.
-
All 1B and 3B available for trade.

We’ll miss you very much, Jon. Hopefully you’ll just stay on as owner through the remainder of the season so nobody takes over for free mid season.
-
OK, as we get to the midway point it's time I come to terms with the fact that I just don't have the time it's going to take to try and stay in this thing, short or long-term. It's been a ton of fun and it helps keep me in the game beyond the Giants. Hopefully somebody can pick up the Savoy Specials and bring them to the top! Take care you all, stay safe and remember...it's a long season! Cheers! Jon
-
Nevermind, my bad...I was trying to swap them, not thinking straight. Long night...
-
Josh Naylor is listed as able to play 1st yet Ottoneu won't let me place him there. Bug? Feature? Or is Josh just not eligible and the UI isn't reflecting that?
-
Sometimes you’re the hammer. And sometimes you’re not the hammer, not at all.
-
Julio...
-
It does happen so don’t be too hard on yourself. I bought a player I didnt want the other day by mistake, too, in another league. I think it is kinda easy to do when bidding on a phone.
-
And to get my roster right I need to cut a big money player now. Next time, read the rules, right? Right.
-
Weird, I'm pretty certain I removed my bid for Ben Brown...but apparently not.
-
Damn, thought my $11 bid was high!

Ah good to know. #facepalm
-
yea - you must have at least $1 available for all 40 roster spots, even if they are not filled: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
-
Getting this message: You must be under your total cap, under your total roster spots, and have at least $1 for each available roster spot up to 40.
Any rows highlighted in red are players marked as CUT on the roster organizer.
-
So why do I need a $1 for open roster slots?
-
Think I’d prefer “una caja de donas“ or Pete Incaviglia’s Barbershop Choir, but sure let’s pin the tail on the Lollygaggers until some of these guys start making better contact!
-
Sold! Nuke, you got nuked!
-
I mean we could call it getting Nuked
-
It can't be called a Golden Sombrero, but we need a nickname for 5 players going hitless and at least 0 for 4 on the same night. My team seems to be doing this fairly often at this point, but I can't find any good slang term for it.
-
Eury Perez! Just in time to give up mass amounts of HRs for me!
-
I guess I'm strategically dropping in the standings to get some players through auction ties.... now just need to go find those Free Agents to add.
-
I can't wait until Harper can do more than just DH. I badly need a post TJ Honeymoon arm to save my pitching staff.
-
Rough timing on that transaction for sure
-
i picked up keller during the game today, so i should be able to retroactively get his points today, correct? :)
-
Why in the world would the Cardinals send Walker down???
-
Oh Julio...
-
Neto went for way more than I expected!
-
Yes. He makes a blowout sound less defeating.
-
@Savoy - Listening to Jon Miller on KNBR? I really enjoy listening to him, he's great!
-
I'm catching games on the internet radio sitting in the Palm Springs sunshine. Happy Opening Day!

I’ll be in Cincy for opening day festivities and to see a powerhouse matchup of the Reds & Pirates. Anyone else celebrating at the ballpark?
-
If they're not hitting .320 by May 20th, I'd cut'em!!?! ;)
-
Walker and Volpe won jobs. It's a Festivus miracle!
