• The Reds announced they are calling EDLC up today.

  Northern Lights on June 6, 2023 2:17 PM

• De la Cruz has got to be called up soon, right. Only five games out of first place in the nlc. Averaging a monster +9 pts/g as a 21 yo in aaa.

  Random Walks on June 6, 2023 2:02 PM

• League average K% v. RHP is 22.8. Arraez's percentage there is 1.7% so a RHP striking out Arraez ought to be good for 27 points in the alternate ottoverse.

• Send your best Elly De La Cruz offer before the game tonight. Cheers!

  MillerTime on June 6, 2023 1:03 PM

• Yeah Bo has had a great year, much better than I thought he might. Seems like the lack of walks could limit his ceiling a bit but even if he never improves that he is still a great player at SS.

  Out of the Bullpen on June 6, 2023 12:51 PM

• Currently Bo Bichette is the hits leader and has the most atbats without an infield flyball

  Random Walks on June 2, 2023 7:26 PM

• Votto hitting an infield popup is a good one. Calvin Mitchell was an outfielder for the Pirates last year, who carried 0% iffb and that was not an indicator of greatness.

  Random Walks on May 23, 2023 11:07 PM

• Haha that is an interesting concept, to weight the scoring of an event based on relative ease or difficulty based on the players specific trends and skillsets. Like getting Joey Votto to pull a ball foul or hit an infield fly ball should be worth 50 points, or Alejandro Kirk or Miggy getting an infield hit or a triple should be worth a lot too lol!

  Out of the Bullpen on May 23, 2023 1:19 PM

• Steals on Realmuto should be worth double. Striking out Joey Gallo should be 75% of a normal K.

• I think when Nationals pitchers do not factor into the decision it ought to be counted as a win.

  Random Walks on May 17, 2023 3:32 PM

• I know, pretty crazy! They have the run differential to back it up as well. And have lost Cruz most of the year.

• VJ Siva Orbit

  Random Walks on April 29, 2023 12:13 PM

• What is a Jorbit Vivas lol?? 0% rostered, pretty cool someone here will be the first one to get him in the Ottoverse. Lots of hits in AA so far. And sorry if I just highlighted a player someone was hoping to nab under the radar for a $.

  Out of the Bullpen on April 28, 2023 2:29 PM

• *Thru 6th. He s een getting into 5th

  Random Walks on April 26, 2023 3:35 PM

• I think he looks strong. Although not getting into 5th inning

  MillerTime on April 25, 2023 10:06 PM

• Note to self: Don’t make rash decisions on cuts with only five minutes before scheduled lunch is over. Hand slap on forehead

• Brice Turang was the other one so far that had bunches of bids. Mason Miller looks like he has a better upside.

  Out of the Bullpen on April 21, 2023 12:51 AM

• Pirates/Reds was a tough one. I mostly just think the Pirates will sell again this summer and Reynolds might be gone but it should be an intense battle for last in the NL Central.

  Random Walks on March 30, 2023 12:18 PM

• If we're doing cellar dwellers I will guess last place for each division as AL: Red Sox, Tigers, A's and NL: Nats, Pirates, Rockies.

  Out of the Bullpen on March 30, 2023 9:34 AM

• I will lead the league in being in last place

  Reset on March 29, 2023 7:12 PM

• I have some good predictions for 2023. A's, Nats and Rockies all dead last. Pretty sure about that.

  Ghost Runners in the Sky on March 29, 2023 7:12 PM

• Yeah, Happy New Year everyone. Anyone have any good predictions for 2023?

  Out of the Bullpen on March 29, 2023 6:46 PM

• Cannot wait two rivers, got an early morning nfc draft and taking the day. Should be a national holiday

  Team LLC on March 29, 2023 10:38 AM

• Early draft made me more eager than usual for openingday. Just around the corner now!

  Random Walks on March 29, 2023 12:58 AM

• I did mean to draft the Yankees’ Spencer Jones

  Reset on March 10, 2023 9:10 PM

• Did In It to Win It draft the wrong Spencer Jones? The Spencer Jones on the Yankees is still a free agent, and it's not clear who the guy drafted is. Does it make sense to award him the real Spencer Jones for 1 dollar?

  MillerTime on March 10, 2023 8:47 PM

• Draft Day :)

  Team LLC on March 6, 2023 5:24 AM

• 2-3 hours

  Dream Squashers on March 4, 2023 4:32 PM

• Out of curiosity, how long do Ottoneu drafts usually take?

  MillerTime on March 4, 2023 4:20 PM

• Absolutely. We are locked for Monday. Because the adjustment is minor, although last minute, I am going to change start time to 8:30 EST to get everyone in the draft room.

  Random Walks on March 4, 2023 2:47 PM

• Don't mind if the start time is altered a bit but would hope the day is kept the same since it's been set for weeks and was planned around by most of us already.

  Out of the Bullpen on March 4, 2023 1:29 AM

• I'm fine with 8:30 EST. I guess the biggest question is whether anybody is on the West Coast. Does 530 work for them?

  Northern Lights on March 3, 2023 9:22 AM

• It snuck up on me, too. There was a proposal to bump the draft to 830 PM--any strong objections?

  Random Walks on March 2, 2023 5:36 PM

• I hope so. That's why I spent my night doing draft prep

  Northern Lights on March 1, 2023 11:35 PM

• Is the draft really this Monday?

  Caseyatbats on March 1, 2023 9:15 PM

• 12/12

  Random Walks on February 18, 2023 9:29 AM

• The updated redraft time has held for a week. 11 of 12 have checked in, and there are no objections.

  Random Walks on February 17, 2023 1:24 PM

• That looks like two no goods for March 27th. I moved the draft up one month toward the start of spring training and will adjust the date as needed so either stay tuned or let me know objections.

  Random Walks on February 9, 2023 7:06 AM

• That was supposed to be avoid Feb 25 not 15 explaining the hinky order. I need to learn to proofread before I hit send !

  Dream Squashers on February 7, 2023 6:43 PM

• Avoid my other drafts Feb 21, 15 and March 27 and I’ll make it!

  Dream Squashers on February 7, 2023 6:40 PM

• I'm typically not free Thursday evenings but am most other evenings for the most part. Although I won't be available the week of 2/27/23. Can probably start anytime after 7 PM EST if it's a weekday.

  Out of the Bullpen on February 7, 2023 4:47 PM

• I'm good every weeknight except Tuesdays. 7pm Eastern can work for me, but I'd prefer it to be later.

  Northern Lights on February 5, 2023 7:47 PM

• Last year we found a time for the redraft that worked for all 12 of us, and that was a Monday evening before the start of the season. I have this year's draft time scheduled for the same slot, but the conversation is open.

  Random Walks on February 5, 2023 7:28 PM

• Happy new year, everybody. I'm looking forward to spring training. Thanks for playing here.
