Panda made a very good run and then CB topped that. Of course the action was around 2nd place as Webb Gems rocked his way to another flag. Congrats WG.

It was not my intention to scare the entire league, secondly I totally skipped the recent major update to the new payment system thread. Thank you Jeah Jeets for clarification.

I read the posts and it looks like that payment platform initially required stuff like SSN but no longer does. I haven’t tried it myself but it looked like the issue was raised and the requirements were dropped

Interesting, I havent read up on the new payment system, but will look will now after seeing your post. Related, but separate issue is I was just looking at the Ottoneu take rate. It's high! At this level we paid in $600 and just $350 is paid to the winners. If we managed the funds offsite we could increase the payout to $480 ($10 each to Ottoneu). Im happy to put the idea up to a vote if anybody thinks this would solve both issues?
-
Well said and congratulations to the winners and the entire league for being active and participating at a high level!
Having said that, I am concerned about the new payment system requiring beyond sensitive information. I am curious about the league's opinion and status on the matter as it will influence my decision and maintaining membership with Ottoneu.

Arbitration starts Oct 15 - I think (that's when it started last year). Enjoy the playoffs! I'm struggling on who to root for...
-
Hard to believe 2023 is in the books. Great activity league wide all. Congrats on the impressive campaign AoK. I think it was you who said last offseason that you didn't plan to be ready to really compete until 2024. If that's the case, I'm concerned! How about C-Bombs? Kept stealth until the final few days to snatch a badge. And respect to PS on soaring up the standings from the bottom third at the ASB to making all of us at the top very nervous!
-
Still looking to add. Especially arms.
-
Garbage teams tend to cut dead weight, don't they? I think you may have that opportunity.
-
Plumber: I really need you to drop McClanahan in the offseason so that next year I can name my team the Woo Turang McClanahan....I just love punny team names, lol.
-
And I don’t like Melendez, but he’s a young guy who’s roasting the ball and he’s catcher eligible. And I don’t think there’s too many people in the market for relievers who will be cut in the off-season
Yeah Jeets! on

I can't quit Ashcraft and love urias in fenway. Melendez scares me a little. His bombs in fenway this week have been impressive.
-
I dunno, if buehler comes back as normal walker buehler, that guy at $5 is worth more than Olson at $29, I think. If he doesn’t come back as the same guy, then I probably win the deal. It’s a risk on both ends.
Yeah Jeets! on

Again, just interested in the dialogue to see if I was missing something. I don't think either trade was a good trade, but if all the parties involved are good with the moves, then I appreciate the thoughts and I'll recalibrate my valuations!
-
Not making accusations of nefariousness, just was having a hard time rationalizing the returns. A top-3 reliever for a guy well over avg price putting up under 4 ppg--catcher eligibility notwithstanding--seemed like a stretch. And take minor pieces out of the other deal, the #2 1B (and an easy top-5 points league bat this season) at an under-value price--plus a cheap top-5 prospect on the cusp of a call-up for a guy coming off TJ is a stretch no matter how you spin it.
-
On one end, hader doesn’t look keepable at $22 and apparently Hats for Bats like Melendez, who’s still catcher eligible next year. On the other end, $3 Buehler could be an elite keeper, depending how he comes back, brash and Alzolay are similar, and a few other things for mainly Olson who’s gonna be at least $29 next year. I always have a side I prefer in any trade, but I genuinely don’t see any issue
Yeah Jeets! on

I’m confused as to which end of things you’re confused about. Obviously, I’m involved in one of them but they look stone cold fair to me.
Yeah Jeets! on
August 10, 2023 6:55 PM
-
always appreciate non-combative discourse! on the one i was involved with, i was seeking help at RP and H4B was more interested in keeping a hot hitting 24 year old with prospect pedigree and C/OF eligibility than hader at that price. on the other deal, if each manager thinks it makes their team better i'm cool with it. and i think that's what went down.
-
Hoping Buehler comes back strong and overpaid. Thought I had pulled Lawlar back but did not so ended with a bit of the short stick.
-
Trying to find the least combative way to say that I'm confused by both of those trades--but I'm confused by both of those trades.
-
Think it's just a case of two heavy traders and is Whitlock average, good, great? Cause I change my answer often.
-
Oh Garrett Whitlock traded again and again. Intriguing trade history.
-
Lol yeah we're determined to go down swinging--for better or worse.

Thanks commish! Yea, snuck by one more round there. But really going to need luck on my side to make a run at the playoffs. Should be fun to watch at least!
-
Good luck today WD. Look to be in great shape for making it to the next round!
-
Ha, thanks! My team isn't exactly optimized for the OPL format, but I was happy to sneak into the 2nd round!
-
Congrats to our lone OPL rep. WD is on to the field of 170.
-
sheesh. i guess meadows didn't take to the news of the trade very well
-
Kopech gives up 4 homeruns in one inning...
-
Hey guys - running just a few minutes behind. Probably wont be even 5 min late.
-
Finally draft day…now can the injuries please stop.
-
Maybe it was that the time zones mixed me up and not the other way around, lol. Also, this is in the middle of the sweet 16...So, that's gonna take away some attention too. Plus, I reside in Spokane and that makes Gonzaga a big deal in these parts.
-
What with the draft cutting into dinner time these days. Eh, btw, I was promised California whether and I’m getting is pure fuckery. Can someone turn the rain off?

Roger that. My wife is not happy about so I’m sure she won’t let me forget the correct time

And to my friend Devers, remember, draft time is 8pm *ET*. That's 5pm for you (you too now YJ)! Devers missed our draft in another league a couple years ago due to mixing up the time zones.
-
I'd remind y'all about the draft, but I can see that isn't necessary. Everybody here has already logged in over the past few days to get their draft boards ready - almost all over the past 24 hours. JaBO rocks. Only problem is we're not going to be able to sneak our favorite sleepers through. See you tomorrow night!
-
Draft Day Confirmed: Thursday, March 23, 2023 5:00 PM PDT. See you all next month!

Wow, the draft day poll just tightened up in a hurry. One more check mark from either PANDA SHIELD or SCRANTON STRANGLERS and draft day will be Thursday, 3/23!

The 5 NVs are a little concerning. Is everyone paid up?
-
Trying to go out of town and help move my son that weekend after he closes on his house so everything is TBD anyway.
-
If I can't make it
-
We were given one option during the week and no one is against so I'm a little confused. Schedule it for either day and if u can't make it I'll pick up waiver claims. I don't have much cap space.
-
Same, the later the better as I'm in CA.
-
No prob for me if we push it back to any time later
Yeah Jeets! on

WTF, I saw you note that Friday "isn't great". We're only missing you for this slot. Would it help if we made the Friday time one hour later? Would this be a problem for anybody else?

Thanks all for voting! To free up your calendars, Im cutting potential draft times to 2 options. Friday 3/24 @ 7pm ET is the clear frontrunner. I heard from AoK and he can make this time work, which gets us to 11 available. The dark horse is Thursday 3/24 @ 8p ET. Only 7 have indicated availability for this time so far, but nobody has indicated they are not available yet, so no reason to close this option yet. For the 5 missing a vote on 3/24, please let us know.

Not super optimistic the weekday option will work based on past polls , but happy to give it a shot. Added another option - Thursday 3/23 at 8pm ET. Have also removed choices where 3 or more people had conflicts. Setting a deadline for this Thursday to get your votes in so everybody can block off the time in their calendars. Please vote ASAP and try to be flexible so as many of us as possible can participate. Thanks! https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/b83x46ra
