I vote we do it later at night one of those days. Most of us all have wives and kids etc so I understand people are busy and can't do certain days. But we can all sacrifice a few hours of sleep one night though to make it work. That really seems the only option.
-
Move the timeslots later on those dates*
-
Oh cool DK, missed that you came back. If we move back any of the timeslots for anyone do any of the times that didn't work now work?
-
Sorry boys. I'm not in the UK, I'm in Lex, baby. I just filled out the Strawpoll. But caveats: I didn't check Monday the 4th or either Thursday time, but I'll likely be available for all three of those, too. On Monday the 4th, I have a group until 8 ish, so I could likely join by 8:30 or 9. I'd say 95% chance I could join on one of the Thursdays, but there's a chance I couldn't—even at the last minute. But even then, I could probably join at 9:30 or so.
-
Alright- so we are out of dates based on the Straw Poll that work for everyone, despite that we haven't heard from DK yet as well. So this means either we have to expand the time window on those dates or I ask that somebody who selected unavailable for those nights with 10 out of 11 people set to available let us know if any others are workable.

I'm sending out straw poll with all available dates AFAIK. Perhaps we can change time but let's try to find a time here that works for everyone
-
How about Tuesday, Mar. 29th or Thursday Mar. 31st? at 8 PM EST/7 PM Central
-
Alright we're having a hard time scheduling this- sounds like Jodie can't do anytime after the 1st, Sawyer can't do any time this upcoming weekend. He can't do anything before 9PM on Apr. 1st, but I'm guessing that time doesn't work for DK. This leaves us with only weeknights.
-
April 1st is fine with me, but I can’t until 9pm. April 4th anytime works.
-
April 1st is probably okay with me. I just can't any day after that really. I'm fine with weekdays as well

Friday Apr. 1st?
-
How about Monday April 4th?
-
What if we did like a Monday night? If we decide to do a day during the week, the only night that I really couldn’t would be Tuesdays. I do work early mornings, but it’s just one night so if we have to draft later on a weeknight, I’ll make it work.
-
I’m out that whole weekend of the 26th, unfortunately. But we can just see what the consensus is
-
Jodie can't do it that weekend. This leaves us either weekend nights or another day of the previous weekend. How about the 26th- one week from today?
-
Works for me
-
How does new draft date work for everyone? Sat. Apr. 2nd at 8PM Eastern
-
If we do a night could we do a Saturday, I can make all weekends work but I work at 4am on Mondays, so if we do a Sunday, an earlier evening would be preferred.
-
The time will likely be the more important factor for me than the day. I assume the plan is evening/night. Would, for example, 8 PM EST work? If so, both of those days you mention work for me.
-
That's just a placeholder- we need to figure out a time that works for everyone. Is everyone okay if we want to move back one week to Saturday the 2nd or Sunday the 3rd?
-
Good: Baseball’s back, yay!
Bad: Which means I have to watch the tanking Reds ;(
Also Bad: Due to new/unable to be altered travel plans, its unlikely I’ll be able to participate at all in a March 27th draft. If it must go on I’ll be highly disappointed with my resulting team, but understand the consequences I suppose. Sorry it’s such late notice. Practically any other weekend/weeknight (late enough) I would be fine. Don’t want to mess anything up for everyone else.
-
It is a grave, cosmic injustice that my interest in baseball is financially beneficial to Rob Manfred and the owners. They are acting like complete asses.
-
Thanks CJ for giving me your cuts, should all be applied and I believe all are ready for the draft
-
Christian didn't make cuts in time- CJ I need you to give me your cuts by tomorrow, as early as possible. if you don't we'll have to give you a cap penalty or something.
-
also kershaw
-
Taking best offer for Harper/Goldschmidt if anyone wants.
-
Hey guys i just updated my trading block, some I don't need to move just if you want people like Buehler and Gray then I'm open to offers. I'm looking for cheap keeper players with upside/surplus.
-
Hey guys, I have another league with an available team if anyone is interested? Here's the roster: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/660/team?team=4595
There's some decent pieces to work with. It's also a $20 league just like this one. Let me know if you'd like to join and thanks!
-
I should be able to make any draft date/time chosen. No preference one way or another.
-
That day works for me. I'm fine with any night and any day on the weekend
-
I have draft tentatively set for the 27th which is a Sunday. Everyone feel free to throw out what days are best for you and we can keep that in mind as lockout situation develops.
-
We can start talking about draft schedule, but I think we need to wait until lockout situation is more clear as baseball may not start on time. I personally prefer as close as possible/as is reasonable before season starts.
-
Hey everyone- just a reminder that our keeper deadline is still the 15th and won't change. Get your cuts in by Tuesday, February 15, 2022 11:59 PM EST
-
Sounds right to me.
-
i agree with this
-
To add clarification, the roster being valid would be as calculated by Ottoneu at the end of the current season, i.e. 42 roster spots because 2 on 60-day DL, and money within 400$ + or - traded salary cap.
-
A rule proposal for the league based on a few previous years- what are thoughts about making it to where rosters have to be valid at end of season- as to avoid people signing 150 free agents, then choosing who they want to keep at keeper deadline?
-
In case you didn't see - keeper deadline moved back to 2/15 - so we have more time for you all to offer me trades.
-
BTW I'm in another league with Shrews and he didn't do arbitration- definitely glad Ian is here.
-
Wow, I'm offline for a bit, and when I return there's a new commissioner and new member. Welcome, Ian!
-
Yeah, that dollar is really going to make a big difference.
-
Whoever is only allocating $2 to Kenton should be ashamed
-
Welcome aboard Ian. Are you related to Arn Anderson?
-
What up everybody? Hope you all are doing well. Stoked to join the league.

It's also important to note that Ian Anderson owns Ian Anderson on his team. This is one step above Ike Minor owning Mike Minor. Historic achievement already lol
-
I have processed the changes, Ian has been added as new team owner and we are good to go for arbitration and are set on owners for the next season.
Welcome to the league, Ian (bucatini)!!
-
Given there were no objections, Jodie has passed commissioner role on to me and I'll go ahead and get started. Thanks again Jodie for handling the role past few years!
First item of business: Vote on Replacing Shrews as team owner- With me not included in vote, as of now vote stands at 6 in favor- 4 neutral/abstained. That makes this item pass with league majority.
Second item: Ian Anderson as replacement- those in favor of adding Ian also constitute a majority without me included.
-
Personally, I'm against any unilateral decisions as commissioner. All decisions impacting the league should be made as a league and commissioner just plays facilitating role.
-
If I remember the old rule, we vote on as league and if there's a tie, then commissioner breaks the tie. I'm fine with that but we've never had to.
