I see that we are looking for a new manager. That's a solid roster for somebody to build around and it's already paid for. Shall we post the opening on Slack?
-
Looking to deal Devers and JDM, and can pay their salary, looking for big league pitching in return
-
Looking to move a catcher with surplus value for a $25-35 SS
-
Kind reminder that this league is OPL eligible. If you finished in the top 6 last season you can enter the Ottoneu Prestige League, its a best ball format so no active management required. https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/
-
I thought we started at 8:00, it shouldn't be a problem, but I'll probably be mobile for the first few nominations
-
FYI, Blue Jays will have a proxy manager (astraea.m.k) for the first hour or so of the auction.
-
Draft tonight
-
Looking to trade a catcher right before or right after the draft. Rutschman most likely to go.
-
Thanks to the new guys for joining, we're now full and ready to auction. Positive Jam, please make your one round of penalty-free cuts by end of day Sunday.
-
Welcome to the league!
-

Works for me
-
Good for me.
-
Yes draft time is good for me.
-
While we wait for the last team to be filled, is everyone still good with the auction date and time?
-
I guess I should finish my email....I sent an email to ask they change it to an expired team. Sorry.
-
I sent an email.
-
Good call, I abandoned WTF and they're now available to be claimed. Apologies to Niv, but looks like somebody will get a free team this year.
-
Commish likely has to mark the team as "abandoned" again.
-
Positive, can you please follow up on your conversation with Niv to make sure that WTF is shown as available? Thanks.
-
It's great to have a manager for Positive Jam. I don't see WTF listed either. We gotta try to get that last team filled.
-
So are we still looking for an owner for WTF? Its not showing up as available on the "Claim a Team" page.
-
All squared away
-
Thanks for having me. I have a good amount of experience in Ottoneu but I didn't renew my teams last year because I was expecting a work stoppage and then just did all NFBC for 2022. I'm happy to be back. I want to work towards the OPL. I emailed Niv about the team

No matter which team you pick; welcome aboard.
-
You'll have to reach out to Niv at help@ottoneu.com to do that. I can't do it in the Commish Tools because the other team hasn't been paid for yet.
-
Welcome. Hopefully somebody can straighten this out for you. I would think that this is an easy fix.
-
this is sort of embarrassing but I totally meant to purchase the other vacant team. Let me know if that's something you can make happen.

New Musial is good to go. Three more spots to fill but I'm confident we'll get there as leagues start to fill up. They're not the greatest teams but represent good opportunities to auction with a clean slate and/or build a disruptor aimed at success in '24.
-
No problem, I sent New Musial a PM and I'll be able to make his additional cuts.
-
Don't worry. It will get fixed.
-
Yeah the message said cut a player and as a rookie to adding a team this late that is what I did...
-
You are allowed a round of penalty free cuts. I think you used it when you cut deGrom. I'm sure that our commissioner can help you fix that so you can continue to make your cuts.
Welcome to the league.
-
Hey I get the message I need to cut but of course I can't....
-
Welcome aboard!
-
Hey Everyone I grabbed Musial Suspects. Going to be wave of cuts as soon as I am able.
-
Posting again in the slack. We shouldnt have a problem finding some owners once draft season swings into full gear.
-
It would appear now that we need to fill four teams before the draft. Any ideas??
-
I've been involved with Otto since the first year it became available on Fangraphs and "back in the day" used to message with Niv quite frequently to discuss the game, suggestions on how it could be and was tweaked, etc.
I'm quite familiar with the concept of surplus and value... That was a terrible trade
-
I’m quite happy with the trade. Notoriusgman, I encourage you to join the slack group if you’re not already on there - it’s a great place to discuss trades and better understand concepts like surplus and value. Always appreciate the discussion and love the league’s activity!
-
If you have second thoughts on getting Luis Robert for $21 for free, I'll take him off your hands.. No problem

Sure, I had second thoughts. And as commissioner, I would absolutely apply a higher standard of fairness to trades between two new teams that were in another league together.
-
You vetoed your own trade?

Just because everyone isn't paying attention 24/7 doesn't mean it's ok. If that deal had been between two new teens, that were in the same league together on another site, you'd have cancelled it and booted them out

Gman, there was only one veto of the Kirk trade, and it came from me. Nobody else complained or vetoed. I would encourage you to speak up during the 24-hour veto window if you have a problem with a trade.
-
I have updated my trade block and have made Albies available.
-
I have Albies on my team now. He's getting cut because I don't believe he's worth any where near $29.
-
How did we kick a guy out for trading Burnes for Albies, or whatever it was... But then no one cares about Kirk being dealt for Gilbert AND Robert. That's a terrible trade, and terrible look for Laser to make it with the newst owner in the league after the fuss he caused to make the last guy leave
-
Well done. Thank you!
