• I will not be part of Ottonue next season. I don’t agree with the new payment format (required to submit your SSN for a non prize money League). So if some one wants to assume the Commissioner of the league I will transfer the duties before the current season ends to assure a smooth transition. I would like to thank you all for your participation and good luck to all.

  Pine Tar Rags on September 18, 2023 3:17 PM

• I just want to wish everyone luck this season. (because we all know luck plays a significant part). Let’s have some fun, I think the no shift and the “clock”, will add a new dimension to the game. Now, let the auctions and the trades begin.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 26, 2023 11:01 PM

• Auction Draft tomorrow evening at 8:00 PM EST

  Pine Tar Rags on February 25, 2023 7:29 AM

• Everyone, please join me in welcoming Doppleganger to the league.
  The auction draft will be held on Sunday, February 26th @ 8:00 PM EST.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 20, 2023 5:23 AM

• Well, we are down one manager. If we don’t have a full compliment of managers by Saturday morning, I will put the draft off for one week.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 15, 2023 11:31 AM

• It looks like the draft is scheduled for Sunday - is it happening then, or is that just a placeholder?

  Bullpen Beers on February 14, 2023 11:51 AM

• There are still four owners that have not renewed their teams for the 2023 season.

  Pine Tar Rags on January 30, 2023 6:31 PM

• For those of you who haven’t done so already. There is only one week left to renew your team for the 2023 season.

  Pine Tar Rags on January 24, 2023 6:46 AM

• Welcome GatorDave, sorry for not greeting you sooner, things have been chaotic around here. Welcome to the league!

  Pine Tar Rags on December 14, 2022 7:36 PM

• I like your optimism Yaong

  Pine Tar Rags on November 13, 2022 12:11 PM

• I'll be the champion next season. :)

  Yaong Star on November 12, 2022 10:06 AM

• Thank you all for completing the arb process. Now we just need one owner for the Pickles team.

  Pine Tar Rags on November 12, 2022 9:15 AM

• 4 Teams; Lima, Supremely, Bevacqua and Pickles haven’t completed the Arb process. You have one week to get it done. Please do your part!

  Pine Tar Rags on November 7, 2022 12:27 PM

• Thanks... got the W in my big money league too so I'm enjoying life. Would like for everyone to do arbitration, make some offseason trades and keep the league active. Always fun!

  Sidd Finch All-Stars on October 6, 2022 7:21 AM

• Shoopy was banned from Fangraphs by Niv for cheating within the parameters of the TOS. The team was picked up and Niv and his team took care of all the administrative procedures for a smooth transition to keep our league whole. That’s all I can tell you because that is all I know.

  Pine Tar Rags on August 12, 2022 8:59 PM

• I think if a owner abandons a team it goes to a first come first serve kind of thing. Anyone can become the new owner and start making moves. The team is paid for so it's basically a free team for the rest of the season.

  Look Into My Eye on August 12, 2022 11:35 AM

• Anyone know what is going on with Shoopy's team? I saw it was abandoned and then it looks like it had a new manager and now there are a bunch of moves happening?

  The Blumpkin Spice Boys on July 14, 2022 11:16 AM

• Most popular date for the draft is Monday, April 4th.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 25, 2022 7:19 PM

• Thank you all for participating in the poll voting, I will announce the date tomorrow afternoon

  Pine Tar Rags on March 24, 2022 7:59 PM

• MLP, CP & BLD have not yet responded to the auction draft poll. Please, if you can respond we can get a date for the draft. Thank you.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 23, 2022 7:31 AM

• Thank you all for your responses for the draft date. I will let y’all know by Friday. I just hope this works for all of us.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 22, 2022 8:34 PM

• thanks! I have marked my available time slots

  Dirty Mike & the Boys on March 22, 2022 10:03 AM

• Auction draft poll has been set up please follow the link and please try to respond by Friday March 25th
  Please mark your availability for: STS Readers League Auction Draft https://whenavailable.com/event/rTPAmJRF1sPrtpZTA

  Pine Tar Rags on March 22, 2022 9:44 AM

• Can't do the March 27th, April 2, or April 6th. Should be good any other dates.

  X on March 21, 2022 4:38 PM

• I have another auction on 4/3. I'm ok with 27th, 29th or 31st, but suggest that we move to 8 EDT (if not 3/27) to accommodate Bullpen Beers and any other west coast owners.

  Sidd Finch All-Stars on March 21, 2022 8:37 AM

• 27th works for me

  Dem Bums on March 21, 2022 4:56 AM

• Most weeknights are bad for me. I'm on the west coast and have to work until 5 or 6 most nights, and starting at 6 pacific is likely too late for east coast people. Would Sunday night be possible? (March 27 or April 3)

  Bullpen Beers on March 20, 2022 9:09 PM

• Do we want to keep the draft on March 31st or do we move it up to the 29th let me know

  Pine Tar Rags on March 20, 2022 8:15 PM

• Welcome aboard Pickles

  Pine Tar Rags on March 20, 2022 8:10 PM

• hello everybody! just joned your league, I amnot new to ottoneu though this account is brand new since two years after my last season I had lost credentials and everything else. Can't wait for the season to start!

  Dirty Mike & the Boys on March 20, 2022 11:54 AM

• Welcome to the league Dem Bums

  The Blumpkin Spice Boys on March 18, 2022 12:02 PM

• Preller, Yaong, Supremely, Bullpen, Kuhl and Cheaters; you have all qualified to participate in the prestigious OPL, if you so choose.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 18, 2022 7:58 AM

• Hey “Dem Bums”, welcome to STS. I’m sure we all share in your excitement and enthusiasm. I will give you one round of penalty free cuts. Send me the players you want to cut and I will make the cuts.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 18, 2022 7:45 AM

• Hi all. Just claimed mumbles. Im new to ottoneu but super committed and excited to get started!

  Dem Bums on March 18, 2022 5:00 AM

• Soon as we find two owners for mumble and degrom i will set the draft date

  Pine Tar Rags on March 10, 2022 6:34 PM

• The draft date and time is not etched in stone. The interface would not allow a blank date and time, so I had to enter something. We will address the situation as things begin to unfold.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 2, 2022 6:57 AM

• I am going to postpone the draft until we find two owners to claim Mumbles and deGrom. The problem is, there are many leagues looking for new owners and with the CBA in perpetual limbo; there is a lot of trepidation for potential owners to plunk down money to play fantasy baseball. Let’s hope MLB can get its’ act together sooner rather than later.

  Pine Tar Rags on March 2, 2022 6:52 AM

• That is a very good point. This lockout does not look like it is going to be resolved any time soon. Draft is going to get pushed back tentatively to March 15th.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 10, 2022 6:12 AM

• Also, since we're probably moving the draft back anyway, why not wait until the lockout ends and MLB free agency takes place? I hope not, but this season may not start until mid-late May. What's the rush?

  Bevacqua's Limo Driver on February 10, 2022 12:19 AM

• Ha I dunno man. I paid at 10:03am PT today, so maybe it didn’t update yet on your end. In any event, I’m back for another year of mediocre fantasy baseball!

  Bevacqua's Limo Driver on February 9, 2022 9:13 PM

• To Bevaqua, Dude you just renewed, because I checked everyone’s status before i posted the message.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 9, 2022 9:05 PM

• Dude, I'm right here. Renewed and everything.

  Bevacqua's Limo Driver on February 9, 2022 7:36 PM

• Status of the league: Mumbles, Bevaqua and deGrom have until midnight tomorrow to renew their teams. I have reached out to them via email on Monday, no one has responded. For whatever reasons they may, especially with the pandemic and other circumstances, it is what it is. So, if they have not renewed by the deadline, I will be abandoning their teams. That will delay the auction draft until all teams have found new owners.

  Pine Tar Rags on February 9, 2022 7:32 PM

• Mumbles and deGrom, you have until Thursday to renew your teams

  Pine Tar Rags on February 7, 2022 10:18 PM

• I'm still around if anyone wants to send me a trade offer or two.
  Kuhl Krushers 2.0

  Look Into My Eye on January 18, 2022 5:00 PM

• I have changed the draft date to February 22, 2022, because one of the owners will be out of the country. Let me know of any issues this may cause. I’m just trying to lock down the draft date to accommodate all owners for full participation.

  Pine Tar Rags on December 31, 2021 1:21 AM

• Welcome Shoppy

  Pine Tar Rags on December 15, 2021 8:13 PM

• Hey everybody. Just claimed this squad. Look forward to being a part of this league. Always open for trade discussions. Hit me up.
