Happy Thanksgiving to all my fellow owners.

Arbitration starts Saturday. My recollection is that we have several weeks to allocate our dollars. I think the rules section has a pretty good explanation of the process. You have $25 to allocate to players on other teams. You have to allocate at least $1 to each team and no more than $3.

Check the cap penalties on your roster page. You have a few players you can take advantage of for this.
-
We are recovering some of the cap penalty from that player. For Steven Matz, his cap penalty was 2 dollars. A month after I cut him, I put him up for auction again. I won the auction again and cut him again. Now, his cap penalty is only 1 dollar. The other dollar goes back into my salary pool. Once a player reaches a 1 dollar cap penalty, this doesn't work. The only way to recover that dollar is if the player is rostered.
-
Hi everyone. Question that I've been curious about - more often than I would expect, I see that there are players that are acquired via auction and then immediately cut. Just wondering - why would one do that? Thanks.

Happy 4th of July to my fellow owners. Enjoy the day and be safe.
-
I have a bunch of solid SPs. I need a closer or bats. If anyone has any interest I’ll entertain all offers!
-
Serious offers only please for MLB Home Run leader Nico Hoerner lol
-
You want to watch your games played for your catchers. There are two spots available everyday to help you do that especially once the inevitable injuries happen.
-
If you page down past your roster you will see max games played per position - with catcher it’s 162- so it’s really a catcher and a half.
-
Didn't realize that lineups include two catchers. That's not the default for Ottoneu, right?

My thanks to everyone for making the draft tonight. Let the trade offers flow.
-
Draft Time!
-
5 minutes to start.
-
Time to start heading to the draft room.
-
Sounds good.
-
Looking forward to the draft tonight. Just a heads up, I have a 1 week old and my in-laws just left yesterday. My wife has been gracious enough to let me stare at a screen for a few hours tonight, but I may need to ask y'all to consider pausing the draft for a few minutes here or there if I need to help my wife get the baby down, fed, changed, etc. If the pace is moving along I can always miss out on a few guys. Just wanted to let y'all know before we hopped on tonight.

Still waiting on 4 owners but according to the site Trip set up (thank you for that by the way) looks like April 5th at 9pm eastern is trending to be the day.
-
It looks fine. It was probably formatting from the previous version that I did not reset. Thanks!

I filled in my times, but I had to unmerge some cells in the second row. I hope that didn't screw anything up.

No problem! I am glad the link worked the second time! Let's see if this helps get this figured out.

Great idea, Roundtrippers. I just filled out which days I am available and what times. Would be great to land on a day and time soon.

We used a shared google doc in a league I was in a few years ago. I updated it for our league.
Hopefully this link will work: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Jw3d_WvF159fCHFtmrQJIXYLcnEx_VmQ7ZNTzKIWeJU/edit?usp=sharing

I think we are at a point where we might need to start talking April 5th or 6th.
-
My understanding is that CouchManagers takes more work on the part of the commisioner(s), even with the import/export features from Ottoneu to CoachManagers. As well, 3 hours is too short a bidding time. I sleep. And up to 48 players at once? When I've looked at CouchManagers, I see 8 hour bidding times, 1 player per team at a time and weeks long drafts. Slow drafting is what it's designed for.
-
If you go to couchmanagers.com you can "watch" live drafts for other leagues to get a feel for it. Look under the "Auction Draft" tab at the bottom of that part of the page there is a list of live/current drafts. It is pretty easy to figure out once we got started.

Never done one of those. Going to need a tutorial on it.
-
If someone knows how to use it, I say we go ahead and do it. I've only done one slow auction and loved it, but don't know how to set it up with an existing league.
Fomorians on

Yes, essentially it is the same as a normal auction. Each team can nominate say 2-4 players at a time. We then have 6 hours to bid on any/all players nominated. Once the 6 hour clock gets under 3 hours each time a new bid is placed on a player the clock resets to 3 hours. It may sound like it will take forever (it will with the first few players), but it picks up steam real fast. The software is clunky, but what draft site isn't lol.

I’ll be traveling all day on the 26th until 8 pm Et. Would be okay with a slow auction
-
Ive never done a slow auction before, are the mechanics the same as a regular auction just with a long ass time?
-
Great Idea! Let's do it!
-
I just did one for another Otto league and it only took a week to finish a start-up league. We would have far less players to auction off. We could do a 6 hour clock with a 3 hour reset and could finish in the span of a few days hopefully.
