3/2 and 3/27 are likely the only two days that wouldn't work for me

No worries. I’ll pick a new draft date by Monday. Please send me any dates and times you CAN NOT make by Sunday morning and I’ll find a time everyone can draft.

Any second basemen on the block? Just a few more days to go before roster freezes…
-
Trade block has been updated. I didn't waste time listing expensive players which nobody wants anyway.
-
welcome and if you want to offload some of that high price talent give me a shout!

Illuminati is now Highway Star. Thanks for having me in your league.
-
If you’d prefer to not have to fight off 11 owners at the auction to win Xander, hit me up.
-
I will not be returning. No interest in a league that the owners don't get to vote on trades.
-
The draft date is not actually set. I forgot what the league password was so needed to reset it and it defaulted to a February 1st Draft Date. I changed it to mid-March but once the league is filled and all teams are paid for 2023 we will pick a draft date.
On that note- filling teams- both openings (Marte and Elite) have already been claimed. Once those teams owners have signed up I will post the new franchises that have become available.

You were in 65 leagues this year! You might be keeping Niv and Ottoneu afloat single-handedly!

I will not be coming back for 2023, too many leagues
-
If anyone else is leaving please let me know and I will mark those teams as abandoned as well. I'd like to get a jump on finding replacement owners.

With the trade deadline passed, this is as good a time as any to let y’all know that I’m bowing out at season’s end. Commish: feel free to mark me as abandoned once the season ends, and you can get a new owner in time for arbitration. Good luck to everyone in this year’s race!

I didn’t get to see the thoughts but if anyone would like to make a trade Ohtani is on the block
-
I accepted the trade by accident, hitting the accept button on my phone instead of reject. You can see in the comment section of the trade what my thoughts are. LOL
I messaged the commish and other team about this. I am messaging here for full disclosure
-
I accepted a trade by accident just now. I hit accept on my phone instead of reject. You cqn see the comment i typed in comments.

I understand, but the team was over limit, so I had to cut one even to explore my new roster. I should of waited for your OK, thanks for second chance
-
Welcome aboard Big Papi! Technically, you used your round of penalty free cuts already when you cut Miguel Sano, however I can set it so you get a full round of penalty free cuts. Once you know who you are going to cut let me know (I don't need to know the players, just when you are ready to make the cuts) and I will set it so you get another round of cuts.
-
Am I getting a round penalty-free cuts like in other leagues when claiming a team?
-
Just claimed WTF and paid up to 2024 to show my commitment to the league, happy to join you guys, getting pretty familiar with Ottoneu over the last four years, always open to discussions on trades or baseball in general. Got some work to do in order to get team ready for next season.
-
If you hit claim a team on the Ottoneu site, these teams don’t appear on the list of available teams, so I’m not sure how anyone would know to contact you, Commish
-
The teams that don’t have owners are available for someone to pick up. To date, no one has contacted me about joining.
I’m not sure what you mean by attempt to find new owners. I’ve never used Ottoneu’s Slack channel (I don’t even know what Slack is) but if someone wants to post the openings there that is certainly fine.
As a reminder, the league is set to private so that anyone new knows they have to pay for next year to make roster moves for this year.
-
Agree - there was never a request to weigh in. WVP's question was clearly for the commissioner. consider me in favor of abandoning the teams.
-
Anytime someone has abandoned their team, they have been replaced during the season. It is not about support from owners, no one ever voted to replace or not to replace. Not sure what is going on?
-
Unfortunately, I suspect that speaks more to apathy with the league than anything else. I know I’ll see out the season, but then drop
-
Five days after West Virginia's post we've only had one other team chime in so it doesn't seem like there is much support for finding new owners.
If we do decided to open up the teams to new owners, any new owner would have to pay for next year before they can make any transactions this year.
-
The Ottoneu trade deadline is August 31st.
-
Echoing West Virginia’s question - any hope for new owners? Trade deadline is only 2 weeks away, so we likely lost any chance of having someone active for it, which is a shame
-
I was wondering if there will be an attempt to replace the two owners who abandoned their teams? There is half a season left. That is a long time to have teams open.
-
I respect all sides of the arguments , that being said , we do have the veto power , I feel the commissioner had legitimate concern but should have called for a vote , so let’s moving forward use the veto option , all sides win .
Take care either way

Totally missed all of these events as I was off the grid on a vacation, but it’s a shame to see owners bowing out mid-season and to see the level of anger, especially in a money league. Will still largely be off the grid in the coming 2-4 days, but will try to catch up as soon as I can
-
I would like to abandon my team. Not interested in continuing with this league.
-
Trade went through. Second trade went through with a lot of back and fourth negotiation. You cry. Second owner suddenly wants to quit and says u can reverse the trades. You do that and delete him from the league so we can’t contact him to get his side of the story. Aka series of events for ottoneu to be made aware of. Also we now have a trade system that people can pull back any trade whenever so we should all be on the same page moving forward.
-
Yeah clearly we have no recourse but it was the wrong decision and there is no discussion otherwise. I’m aware of how the league runs now and won’t make the mistake to participate with you moving forward. Me being in other leagues with him doesn’t change the fact you cheated. Great job.
-
Illuminati has already said he is going to contact Ottoneu and if I hear from them I will be happy to explain the events of the last few days.
-
Yaba- thank you for your opinion. I’m sure you and Illuminati have had plenty of time to talk about this since you are in three Ottoneu leagues together (and neither of you are in any other baseball leagues).
As commissioner, I’ve made my decision. I’m sorry that you disagree however calling me names and threatening not to trade with me is not going to change my mind.
-
Just curious if any other owners have an opinion on this? I personally would prefer a majority rules rather then a team in contention make a decision without consulting anyone. If nothing else I hope no one would make a trade ,with the dictator moving forward. I will not.
-
Also such a weak defense and back handed insult to say you allowed other trades you didn’t like so it’s all good. We all pay for our spots to run a team as we would like and so long as people are not working in concert with one another then most things will go through. Like I’m not trying to create huge issues but that was a bad decision and I do not believe the trades would have been vetoed. They should be sent through because the closest thing to collusion was on your end.
-
He asked for the reversals after your messages posted. Obviously you benefit from the reversal and once you had a answer you wanted you ran with it regardless of rules set in a place. Asking for a reversal on a accident I get but not a trade we had been bouncing back and fourth for weeks. Without your messages the owner would not have asked for the reversal and you acted as a team owner not commissioner

Lol minus the cough cough corny joke 🤣 just meant to put *WTF*

It's pretty clear what I'm doing for the future of my team so my trades shouldn't even be a thought, it's not like I'm quiting. Cough* Cough* WTF

You need to let the league vote. Especially since he already quit.
-
Can I reverse my J. Rod to Elite Dynasty trade?
-
Not a fan of the reversal after the fact.
-
The deals were reversed based on the request of one of the teams involved in the deals, not unilaterally.
WTF asked for the deals to be reversed, on the league message board, at 10:00 PM last night. He followed that up with a private message to me which I also posted.
I honored his request.
The deals were not reversed to benefit my team. If that we’re the case I wouldn’t have allowed any of the trades that The Marte Party made or allowed any of Elite
