Are you planning to keep the same team name? I ask because I have an 8 year old getting more interested in baseball and I'm tired of hiding the page when he's around.

Didn't have the time to give this team much attention this year. You can go ahead and give it to one of your friends.
-
Also: who is planning on sticking around? Just curious because I have friends who want in and would like to fill missing spots quickly.
-
Congrats to Deuce High Flush - is that two years in a row?

Hey quick question, do you guys use the vote-off or the allocation system for arbitration?

Part of my problem with it is that not everyone knows that it could be done as the rules state otherwise so it isn't an even playing field. But I digress, I will be abandoning my 3 ottoneu teams once the season is over.
-
It's not a great rule, but personally I don't think it is that big of a deal
-
And since then I've always just figured everyone can do it, so it's sort of an even playing field

I definitely felt the same way when I first saw someone do this - I thought it was a cheap tactic that went against the spirit of the rules. It was actually talking to Niv that convinced me it was a good idea to keep.

Yeah, I commish in another league and have to keep checking & fixing these as it against the wording & meaning of the rules. Hearing that Niv is in favor of this is extremely disheartening & I now have to consider dropping my 3 ottoneu leagues
-
I've done it a few times this year and last year as well.

If you want to to have a league rule about it, I wouldn't fuss about it - in my other leagues, once one owner tried it, we all started doing it and it became common practice.

Definitely didin't mean to try and put one over on you guys! Just trying to make use of an advantageous tactic that I've seen others use.

We had a similar situation in another league where one owner did that move and the rest of us wondered if it should be illegal, so we contacted Niv.

I've actually spoken with Niv avout this issue and he's in favor of it existing as something that teams can take advantage of if a cut player stays on the market for too long, which makes it an attractive option when you cut a bad player that nobody wants

Yes, the rules say the cap penalty stays until another team signs the player, but the software doesn't keep up with the original price correctly allowing teams to resign cut players later at the cut price and then cut again to lower the cap penalties.
-
It might be worth asking the Ottoneu admins if this is intended behavior or not. Pretty smart thinking though.

If I'm understanding correctly, and using Ricky Nolasco as an example, it looks like he had a $2 cap penalty for dropping him in May. Then he picked him up again for $2, dropped Nolasco again, and now the penalty is $1.

Could one of the commissioners please adjust Buster Posey's team to adjust for him taking advantage of a bug in the system?

He's actually still showing up on Posey's team?
-
My bad. He's already back on your team, Jeets, I'll get him off BPLS
-
Thanks Posey, yes could you please move him back? Thanks.
-
Hey I claimed Gausman on waivers and didn't realize Jeets cut him by accident. He's showing up on my team, so you should move him back to Jeets. Sorry!

Just offered you three top pitching prospects for buxton.
-
Wow, veto, ok. Well if you all think Buxton is worth more, let's hear the offers.

Vetoed it too; just because this is a clear sell-high on Mesoraco and a $3 Buxton.

Buxton

First trade I've vetoed. Nobody near the bottom should trade best prospect in baseball (broxton).
