I just took on two $50 OFers so anything that’s cheap sign me up

Don't worry, there will be plenty of Rob Refsnyders and Travis Jankowskis available for us bargain shoppers at the Ottoneu Draft Day Flea Market. I will have like 74 cents to spend that fine evening. That should afford me one Bartolo Colon leg.
-
I’m going to need to fill some spots on the cheap so that auction will be very welcomed.

Do we even need an auction anymore?

If I could post a gif here, it would be the Robert Redford/Jeremiah Johnson one where he's looking over his shoulder, nodding his head in proud approval. You guys and all these trades... /nods head while grinning
-
I'm enjoying this. There have been more trades in the last week than there were in the first five seasons of this league. (Or at least it seems that way.)

15 years and $765M?! I didn’t see the terms, but I hope they deferred a good chunk of that money on July 1 so my great-great-great-grandchildren can celebrate Juan Soto Day.

Cool, I just added a Met to my team!

CICELY, AK
Freddy Peralta has formally issued a trade request from the Cicely Marmots, the latest in a series of players wanting to leave the frigid cold of the Alaskan Riviera. “How am I supposed to pitch if I can’t feel my damn hands?” Peralta quipped.
Ottoneu insider Jeff Passan indicates the Marmots would be looking for salary relief and would be open to prospects or high-leverage relievers in exchange for Peralta and his 200 strikeouts.

Just updated the OLE TRADE BLOCK if anybody wants to wheel and deal a bit before we get locked in. Trying to pick up a strong catcher, or some OF help.

You can make whatever cuts you want until Jan 31, then you're locked in.

When cutting players is it only 1 round? Or if I decide after that initial round to cut more players is there a penalty?

This is true, smg. But if you'd like to consummate our friendship over a trade, shout at ya boy!

Well technically, I haven't.

Hey, you teams with four shorstops, let's make a trade! The window has been open for like 3 days now. I've got the shakes already!
-
I think I peer-pressured Raleigh into coming back...
-
I know Raleigh in real life. I didn't want to text him before yesterday lest he hit poor Paul Skenes with another $3. But I'll text him today!
-
Not allocating Ottoneu arb dollars is a federal offense punishable by 10-12 years in prison and a $50,000 fine. Are Swan and Raleigh coming back? Do we need to find owners?
-
“You have until January 31 to make trades” MUSIC TO MY EARS

Arbitration is done. You have until January 31 to make trades and cuts. (No auctions until the draft though.)

Attention Raleigh Fingers, the Monolith, and Swan Lake: you have until Friday to make your opponents pay more for their best players!

Hi everybody, arbitration starts today! Figure out which teams are getting away with paying players too little, and soak them for it!

Thanks! My team got so hot I feel like it ruined a close race. I'll take some credit for grinding myself into position, but these hot (and cold) streaks are beyond our control. It's a fun league and I hope everyone comes back. A 1-1 split in the double header seems likely, since whoever wins game 1 will need to prioritize their own pitching staff over Arizona's hopes. Go Mets!

Congrats Stuff! Well deserved after that crazy late surge
-
(PS I can't use 1B or Util today, so I have no doubt that Alonso will hit six home runs.)

I think it's fair to call this for Stuff, who had a monstrous last three weeks to put this away. I believe arbitration starts tomorrow, so Cecily will have to wait until that process is finished before making any trades. Congratulations to the champion, and thank you to everybody for making this league so much fun!

“Just a complete organizational failure this year. We’re going to reevaluate things moving forward and see what we need to fix.”
Things both the trotters and st louis cardinals will say on this fine Monday.

It goes without saying, but the very second that trading is allowed, hit ya boy up! #Marmots2025

Congrats Stuff! I didn't have the firepower this year but happy to place second to you. Onward to 2025.

I didn’t realize it was a three-peat. All the more impressive, congrats!!
-
Congratulations, Stuff+! You were hanging in the mid-50s for a while there and then you took off! Back-to-back-to-back!! 🎉
-
Hi everybody, I have confirmation that the season will continue into Monday to account for the re-scheduled games.

Such a fun race! Good luck Stuff and others making that late push. Let's see if I can keep it interesting

I don't think it's in the cards for me this year. Too big of a dog days swoon. Best of luck to the contenders.

For me, this league is a labor of love that lets me tune into baseball every day. It is damn fun to win, and I've had more than my share of recent late-season hot streaks. Whoever wins is going to need good fortune, and I feel like someone else deserves a turn this year. Good Luck everyone!

This pennant race is giving me agita and I'm not even involved
-
Ooh! We should get a close finish this year. Both of last year’s champions are within striking distance. For Stuff+, this would be a potential 3-peat?!
