Niv reversed the loan, and I have reset Trea and Pepiot's salaries to the correct amounts, so everything should be good now. Sheryl, looks like you're only illegal now because of the $7 Conforto add, which is unrelated to the trade stuff.
-
Problem is now it shows my roster as illegal. Can you fix that?
-
The only way for me to reverse the trade was to go in and cut the players from the "new" teams and add them back to the old teams. But doing that did not reverse the loan aspect of it, so I have adjusted the salaries of Pepiot and Turner for the time being to account for that. I have emailed Niv to see if there's something he can do from his end to help with this.
-
Well, with Sheryl's approval, I guess I'll reverse it.
-
FWIW, I have no problem reversing it. Like I said, I think we all would have accepted it if offered.
-
New guy here with a tendency to stay out of all these things (the Minnesotan in me) but I feel like there’s this much controversy around a trade, a reversal feels like a pretty easy call. I believe we apathetically abstained as well, but would’ve voted to veto (perhaps we did, not sure what my co-owner did)

Not sure how to proceed here. If Pressed Ham would have made 7 vetoes, that would be enough, and I can reverse the trade. I don't want to be unfair to Sheryl, but I also want to be fair to the league.
-
to be completely honest: there are so many transactions made in this league that i stop paying attention purely from brute force. i feel like i am being beaten over the head by transactions. so the only reason i abstained is purely fatigue. but i would have vetoed too.
-
Just saw that too. I’ve never seen a veto in an Ottoneu league, but that is the closest I’ve ever seen!
-
For the sake of full transparency, the voting on the trade was 2 Approve, 6 Veto, 4 Abstain. The normal Ottoneu rules state that 7 votes are required to veto (50% +1), but given the unusual number of vetoes and the discussion around this trade I wanted to at least bring this up here.
-
I guess I don't have an better argument than to say I'm erratic and not very good at fantasy baseball. If people think it's a bad deal, I encourage people to vote against it ASAP.
-
If the league wants to cancel the deal, I'm fine with it. It was proposed to me, I accepted because I thought it makes my team better, and I think we'd all accept that deal if it was proposed to us.
-
I’m going to be honest, that’s a really, really weak argument. First, the trade deadline in this league is August 1st. That gives you another month and a half to shop Turner. More importantly, though, is the fact that you proposed the trade (the top team in an accepted trade is the one that proposes it)- it wasn’t an offer you received.
-
I’ll remind everyone that there is a veto system for trades in this league. If enough people think that this is a bad trade, they can vote against it and it will be overturned.
-
It’s a trade that gets accepted because Trea was on the block for a long time, I didn’t receive other offers that price, I’m selling, and I’m not keeping him at his current price. Also, I’ve been on the road for basically the entire baseball season and am only able to be active in researching about one day a week, which is why I didn’t bid on the prospects.
-
Oh, and a $37 loan that covers almost all of Turner’s salary.
-
How is that a trade that gets accepted? Jeff McNeil and two minor leaguers that got picked up in the last 3 days for Trea Turner and Soler? Two minor leaguers, by the way, that Razor Shines didn’t even bid on when they were up for auction in the last week.
-
Looking to package Taylor and McNeil for a stud bat, or will add Gausman for an elite starter.
-
Sheryl Ring, queen of arbitrage.
-
Looking to deal a couple of RPs for an OF.
-
Looking to deal Ward, Iglesias, Mahle, Cobb, and/or Voit for upgrades at C, 1B, and RP.
-
Looking for upgrades at C and 1B. I have MI, OF, and SP depth to trade.
-
Looking for a stud RP - take a look at our trade block to see who's available!
-
Scherzer, Kershaw, or Ray is available for a big bat.
-
Looking for a big bat. SP are available.
-
Looking for a C and 1B upgrade and depth. I have SPs and OFs to trade.
-
Someone start an auction for Lamet and save me from the consequences of my own actions lol
-
Looking to deal a C or MI for an OF.
-
looking to swap an OF for a SS
-
Looking to add another stud somewhere. Taylor and Rodgers are available.
-
Looks like it's happening soon. Happy bidding everyone!
-
Checking the boards, it looks like Niv jumped the gun and added him before he was officially signed.
-
Ha! you're right. That is strange. Must be in Ottoneu purgatory until deal is more official than from Heyman.
-
if you clicked "bid" like 5 mins ago he was at the bottom of the list. now he's not there
-
Same, Redheads!
-
no i see it now, too. he was on the bottom of the screen at first but now if i went to bid he's not there.
-
He's not in MLB, make sure your filter says "ALL"
-
I got an email about Seiya Suzuki being up for auction but don’t actually see him listed??
-
Looking for another SP and 1B/OF bat. I have C, SP, and RP available.
-
Anybody opposed to a 9 PM Eastern start?
-
30 minute delay GREATLY helps me out, but I’m CT, so I can’t speak for the ET’ers
-
Hey, looks like I have to leave for an hour now. I'll be back ASAP but if you guys want to start on time, Redheads can start the draft when ready.
-
Thank you! I've added you as a commish.
-
I can if you’d like. I commish two of my other leagues.
-
Hey, is anyone willing to have commissioner privileges added for the draft? There a possibility that I may need to leave for an hour during the draft and just want to have it covered in case we need to pause or back out a pick or something.
-
Just try it now. You can get into the draft room already.
-
I'm pretty sure Ottoneu is OK having two people logged in at the same time, just designate one of y'all to do the actual drafting. Can we ask the commish to give us a test run? I don't recall exactly.
-
For the draft tonight - can two managers be logged in at some time, or only one manager per team? It's been a while since I've done a live draft on the Ottoneu system. #slowdraftsFTW
-
thanks for clarifying. that time works for me. it just shows up as gibberish for me, i think because i'm in my own weird time zone. but that's fine. let's just make sure everyone else is fine! speak now or forever hold your peace y'all
-
Yes, that's what it's set at currently, and I believe that was to help accommodate people who are not on the east coast.
