• Yeah I messaged staylo, I think he'd have to drop a big money guy unless the commish does something. Even if that's the solution it sucks that he had to lose so many players first though so hopefully migo shows up, i sent him a thread explaining how to do it

• Oh wait, trades aren't allowed either. Forget what I wrote about that.

  B on May 13, 2025 3:44 PM

• It looks like Staylo just needs a couple of dollars in cap space to become eligible? I don't think I can do anything that would get him in a valid state by today since trades would take a couple of days to go through. Would the only way be to drop some valuable guys or have GoatMigo do something with his commissioner powers? Dropping guys might not be the right move, though, since isn't there a 30 day waiting period to add him back or something like that?

• Thanks BFD. No longer roster eligible here and unable to make any trades currently. If anybody could lend some help I would be thankful.

• Hey all, Staylo messaged me about not knowing a rule and accidentally dropping players without making him roster eligible. Basically there's a rule that you must always have $1 available in cap for every empty roster slot on your team. I ran into this my first year as well and the commish restored my players, personally I think that's fair so hope we can make that happen here

• sweet, thanks everyone! i've joined that discord too.

  B on March 24, 2025 9:05 PM

• Also B, to echo Dongers/Vish, if you've got questions you can hit me up in my DMs too

  All The Smoke on March 24, 2025 8:59 PM

• I've joined the discord! Happy to chat there or here, or if you want my phone number, happy to do some texting

  All The Smoke on March 24, 2025 8:58 PM

• https://discord.gg/t7Y4xXJQ I mentioned it last night, but I created a Discord if anyone wants to use that also/instead.

  Clan Wren on March 24, 2025 8:24 PM

• Also if you have any specific questions feel free to DM me, there's a messaging function at the top right of the UI (right by the Trade button)

• Generally in the offseason every player's salary goes up by $2 if they played in an MLB game or $1 if they didn't, so Cole will go up to $2 most likely. You're able to keep as many players as you want at their new salaries. There's also an arbitration rule which is a bit complicated but basically lets people target a specific #of players on other teams to add salary to them

  Big Fat Dongers on March 24, 2025 8:11 PM

• Hey B, yeah you're right with the H2H league thing. There's no weekly matchups in this format. Basically just league-wide competition to get the most points on the year.
  
  You can find most of the roster rules here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules
  
  Format-specific stuff here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/scoringoptions
  
  And you can also check out the forums if you have more questions!

  Big Fat Dongers on March 24, 2025 8:10 PM

• also, is there a better place for me to pose dumber questions where i don't bombard inboxes with notifications? have questions about how trades work (salary scenarios) and what happens to players after the season ends (as Gamp mentioned during the draft, Cole's dang TJ sucks)

  B on March 24, 2025 7:56 PM

• Hey guys, at risk of exposing how little experience I have, I've only ever played in two different ESPN leagues about a decade ago...both leagues were weekly matchups against another player, but one totaled different stat categories while the other generated point totals. winner at the end of week was who won most categories or who had most points. i'm assuming that's called H2H?
  
  For this league, is it just a running total of overall points to determine the winner at the end of seas

  B on March 24, 2025 7:53 PM

• Glad you're here Baho! Hit me up when your auctions are done and let's see what deals we can make!

  All The Smoke on March 24, 2025 1:33 PM

• Glad to see you're back and still active Baho! I think you'll be able to use FA and make some deals to get yourself going

  Big Fat Dongers on March 24, 2025 11:48 AM

• My bad guys, I totally had this on my calendar for tonight. Looks like I've got work to do.

  Baho's Bravos on March 24, 2025 8:31 AM

• Draft is starting friendos, come join for those who have not

  All The Smoke on March 23, 2025 9:03 PM

• Hello all! This is my first Ottoneu. I'm very excited for baseball to take over my life again.

  TakeoffGoatMigo on March 20, 2025 11:25 PM

• Hey all, I'm Zach and I did Ottoneu way back when it first started for a couple years and then had to scale down my fantasy portfolio a bit. But I'm excited to be back at it!

  Baho's Bravos on March 17, 2025 7:45 AM

• Hey y'all, I'm Vish, been playing ottoneu 5x5 with Gamp for a few years and also excited to try out the points format

  Big Fat Dongers on March 17, 2025 12:39 AM

• Hey yall! First time trying Ottoneu, so very much looking forward to it!

  Clan Wren on March 16, 2025 8:50 PM

• Hello Hello! I've been doing Ottoneu for a few years now, in only one other league (Roto 5x5) and I wanted to try a different format! Team name is tentative right now, and you can also call me Gamptrak/Gamp! Very much looking forward to our draft and the season kicking off!

  All The Smoke on March 16, 2025 8:11 PM

• Hi everyone - long time Ottoneu player but haven't played in a few years and am very excited to be in a new league with you all. Looking forward to a fun season!
