I can also do weeknights. Most nights I would need them to start at 5pm PST or later.
-
We can make most nights work (including weekdays), but a start after 7:30PM EST would absolutely be better no matter the night.
-
Yeah, I was gonna suggest we at least try and see if some weekday night works

Any chance to do it during the week? That Friday isn't great for me.

Draft day update: With 7/12 managers sharing availability so far, the best scenario we have are 2 slots where one of us can't make it. I just added one more option for the last Friday evening (3/24) before opening day (3/30) in an effort to see if we can find a time everybody can make. For those that have already voted, please indicate if you can make it to 7p ET/4p PT on 3/24 as well. The sooner we can confirm a date/time the better. Thanks!

Did you mean to make those march dates? I only see February, two of which are this weekend. I wouldn't be able to make any of those fwiw

I think the last few years we've drafted on the 3rd weekend of March, which has seemed to work best for most of us. Though we always offer an alternative. I'll be traveling the last weekend of March so have added March 18th and 19th as alternative dates. For each date I have included 3 times that should accommodate people from coast to coast (1p ET/10a PT, 4p ET/1p PT, and 7p ET/4p PT). As always, your flexibility in selecting all possible options is GREATLY APPRECIATED!

Yes, thanks AoK and GP. Hope y'all have had a good week. Happy to report it's JaBO's version of MLB's Truck Day. It's Doodle Day!

Weekend of the 18th or 25th for a draft? That's our usual timeframe, right?
-
Any thoughts on draft dates or a Doodle? It's a huge pain in the a** trying to get close to 12 people committed to the same time frame and most of my other leagues have already nailed down a date.
-
One more update to share. 11 of our 12 managers have already re-upped for 2023 and I expect the 12th to come in by tomorrow's deadline. Excited to have everyone back and to see all the engagement this offseason. Go JaBO!

Was hoping Judge would be on the move this offseason, just not this one!
-
So Correa and Boras couldn't tolerate a 2nd opinion, and heads to the Mets to play 3B instead of SS for the next 10+ years.
-
Alright, thanks guys. We'll keep it at $75 for 2023 and maybe revisit an increase next time. Best to keep the league intact and hey, now we all have an extra $25 for holiday shopping. I should probably send mine to Chaim Bloom so he actually signs somebody. Santa has put coal in my stocking.. Bogaerts gone + the Yanks resigning Judge and adding Rodon. BRUTAL.

I would rather play for the $100, but like Jeets I do not have a crazy strong preference. So, $75 is fine too. This league is too active and fun for me to want to leave regardless of price.
-
For all intent and purposes, $75 is "Goldilocks".
-
I did not have a strong preference, so I’d be totally fine leaving it at $75.

However, I'm unfortunately torn and would love to consider some of your thoughts. Despite the lopsided vote, one manager reached out to me directly (out of respect will keep the identify of the manager private) indicating he would leave the league if we made the change. I've always taken my role as commissioner here as basically not much more than administering the will of the league. What say you JaBO?

Thanks voting all! We heard from nearly the entire league. 10 votes with only 1 manager voting against WTF's proposition of taking the league from the $75 tier to $100. With a result like that I'd normally say that's a slam dunk green light.

I dont want to lose anybody here to the change. If it's a dealbreaker for the 1 NO voter please let me know, either on this message board or privately. Also, if any of you that haven't voted have an issue with it, please let me know ASAP. I'll give everybody another couple of weeks to respond before making a change since not everybody is as active during the offseason. Cheers

Exactly. 1st place would go from $400 to $600; 2nd place goes from $150 to $200 and 3rd place from $75 to $100. Also thanks for the reminder to check in on the vote. Looks like we have 7 YES votes to 1 NO vote.

Can someone remind me the benefits of $100 over $75? Is it just Top 3 prize money?

Pitch to anyone thinking of taking on a new team, check the teams available for claim in Infield Fly Rule. We had a few teams leave for this year, but I’ve been in the league for at least 5 years (and I’m now co-commissioner) and the teams still there are all good. There’s some pretty good rosters available, especially El Ocho, who I think had the best roster in the league and finished second because he left some game unplayed. Or there are crap rosters if you want a challenge 😆

Im fine with it WTF. Will present it to the league for a vote. Aside from a majority to make the change we should be sensitive to any "NO" votes. If it presents a real problem for anybody please feel free to direct message me if you prefer to keep your thoughts anonymous to the league. We have a great group here and don't want a proposed change to disrupt that!

Any interest in inflating this to a $100 league.
-
I thought everyone already had enough inflation in their real lives so I didn't want to pile on here. Actually thought arb deadline was Dec 15 for some reason. Early Christmas gift for everyone. Sorry for missing it. Won't miss my cut deadline, putting that reminder in my calendar now.
-
Great to see all the arbitration activity. Looks like everybody already participated other than Stranglers. Scranton you still have a couple hours to get those dollars in! See you all on the other side and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Appreciate that WTF. Enjoy your offseason as well and I may come to you for some of that pitching!
-
None of the moves were illegal. Your roster was illegal. I've been in 5 leagues last 2 years and 3 of them have had the commish with an illegal roster after season ended. Had to quit one after being top 3 last year because the commish played games. Sorry to lump you in with that shit. Don't want to have to find another league. My standards are too high for commissioners so I'll work on that. Have a great off-season everyone. I'm going to need to move some pitching when we get to trade season.
-
I absolutely did not make any illegal moves. No idea what you're talking about. And I must have missed the polite part of, "Had same shit happen last year in another league." What kind of "shit" did I pull? Somebody nominated players and I bid on them with cash well within my budget.
-
Dude, get off it. You won the league. You made an illegal move and it came like 20 minutes before the season ended. People asked you to make the corresponding cuts. No one said you should be penalized or that you were trying to get away with something or anything. They just asked you, politely, to make the necessary cuts. I would just be enjoying my win rather than getting all pussyaching about nothing, but that's just me

WTF your comments less than 24 hours apart are ridiculous. Did you think I was trying to get away with my $6 Michael Lorenzen and my $9 ERod? Lol

Nobody said anything other than asking you to make the cuts. Now you did

Wow. No warm and fuzzies happening around here. Sometimes it pays to give people that have never even bent the rules over many years the benefit of the doubt. The fact is nobody would have been able to immediately make cuts on those last two adds. The system was locked Wednesday night. Why? I don't know, but I do know this was the case because I logged in for the sole purpose of making those cuts.
-
Was talking about Casas. Seems like Commish should have a legal roster IMO.

Sorry, I misread that

There’s nothing illegal on my roster. You have to be legal on the last day and I was

CC when you going to make your Roster legal?
-
That seems like the right thing to do to me. Had same shit happen last year in another league.
-
Congrats to the money teams. Point of order: those last two pickups with no cuts were illegal according to our rules, yes? My understanding is that we don’t allow teams to grab players at the end of the year and have an illegal roster, right? If so, there should have been two cuts to correspond with the Carlson and Frelick pickups

Well, at least in recent years. Of course when Ottoneu was still early days there were far fewer teams!
-
JaBO has a chance to do something today that may have never been done before in Ottoneu. There are well over 1,500 teams playing this format and we currently have 3 ranked in the top 50 global leaderboards. Go JaBO and best of luck WTF and TDITD!
