Looking to trade SPs as I build for next season...I have 23 (lol) on my roster, and all are on the table for the right price.
-
I’ll entertain offers for Edwin Diaz, but I’m also inclined to keep him for next season.
-
Interested in moving some arms (and possibly more) for your bench bats. Shoot me some offers.
-
Anyone else up to redraft these teams? These pitcher injuries are out of control. I’m running out of duct tape fast.
-
It was time. And if Texas can change his name, so can I. The name was too good to pass up and not having him on my team is better than having him on my team!

End of an era with the smelly pirate hooker name change. Looking to spark a new dynasty? Doesn’t even have Moniak!!

I played once as well. I can’t really speak to the strategy, not sure if you’re supposed to add guys before a month starts or something.. I lost after the 2nd month

I played last year with a team in a different league (The Tunnicliff Inn). I made it in to the payout level of a free tshirt :) but I didn’t cash beyond that. It’s a fun wrinkle to the Otto season to put some pretty material prize money in play.
-
Has anyone here participated in the Ottoneu Prestige League? Looking for feedback on it.
-
Those $1 steals only happen when you keep losing auction after auction until there's nobody left. Still was a fun draft though!
-
Hi all - congrats to making it through the draft and to Pepper for his $1 steals at the end. Everyone’s roster should now be imported - please let me know if you see something with your team that is amiss. Otherwise, great draft and really looking forward to seeing automated Ottoneu emails populating my inbox again!

Ah I had to turn the phone long ways. Thank you!

Sorry “swipe left.” It’s to the right a couple spots of “auctions”

If you’ll look at the bottom, swipe to the right and you’ll see a “players” button. You can click and nominate them from there
-
Maybe I am missing it but how do we nominate on a mobile device?
-
Alright, we’re live! Website was giving me a weird message but it seems that I was able to nominate someone. Go ahead and start nominating and bidding, and if we run into any troubles happy to pause the draft to work out the kinks
-
Yes. “spent+pending” will never be able to go over your budget

Clarification question for this draft:
Since up to 36 players can be auctioned at a time, are we going to be hamstrung some by the "spent + pending" and what we have remaining? For example, say I'm the active high bid on Mookie, but also want to bid on Burnes, Trea, and Trout in case I lose out on Mookie. Will this system keep me from bidding on other players until I'm outbid on Mookie, thus freeing up money in my "spent + pending"?
-
I’ve uploaded the rosters to Couch Managers - please check that your roster is accurate. I will start the auction on Saturday morning, if that doesn’t work for anyone please post here.
-
Nah, couch managers is very intuitive and you can set max bids on guys and then move on if you do not get them. I believe :-)
-
We’re less than 3 weeks away from the first games March 20th. This is my first slow auction draft so I’m sure I’m going to screw something up.
-
At least at the beginning of the draft it's probably good to have all three of your nominations out at once due to time constraints. This draft will probably take at least two weeks, if not longer. If memory serves from the last time we did this, we upped the total nominations to 5 towards the end of the draft just to get it done, because we were in danger of not finishing by opening day.
-
Correct. I don’t believe it’s required to have a guy nominated at all times but it does make it move a lot quicker.. 36 guys at once though will be a lot

When this auction starts, I know the max is 3 nominations at a time per owner. Are we supposed to try and always have at least one player nominated to keep things moving?

I signed up yesterday, just the one we’re waiting on 👍

There are a max of 36 players on auction at once
To expedite the draft, I would encourage the use of the “max bid” functionality, as well as the “I don’t want to bid on this player anymore” functionality.
I think there are random drafts going on on couch managers if you want to do a test drive before we kick off for real. Also if there are any kinks/issues for the first couple of people we can be reasonable about accommodating.
We’ll aim to kick off by a

Hi all - apologies for the delay, but the Couch Managers auction is set up. Here’s the link https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=795
The password is Otto2024
Once everyone has signed up, I can import the keepers, and then we’ll get started. The settings are as follows:
Once a player is nominated, he has a 24 hour window to be bid on.
Inside of 12 hours, every time there’s a new max bid, the timer resets to 12 hours

Thank you Coco. Not sure why there wasn't an option for an 'X' as opposed to just blank, sorry to confuse things. Appreciate the league flexibility by using the slow draft.
-
Commish, I’m with you on the poll reading. There wasn’t any “x’s” in the answers just a gray line.. to those that haven’t done it, as said before, the slow draft is very easy. You will even get into the same panic mode on whether you should bid on a guy or not but you can debate about it for hours instead of seconds

Sorry about that, I guess I misread the poll. Looks like there is not a consensus day, so we’ll go with the slow draft. It is pretty intuitive. I’ll get it set up this weekend and we can start in late February. I’ll see if it is possible to set up a practice round for everyone that hasn’t done it before
-
Hey Coco, March 1st absolutely does not work for me. No possible way I could make that. Indicated it in my response in the doodle. I would prefer the slow draft if that's the only date available.
-
Thanks everyone and sorry for the delay. Looks like March 1 at 8 EST works for everyone, I’ll go ahead and set that as the draft time. If anything comes up let me know ASAP and we can switch to a slow draft. Thanks all!
-
Filled out the Doodle (but would also be down for a slow draft if we have an international contingent)

Or 8!

Looks like we have it narrowed down to March 1 or March 8 if we are doing live draft. There are still 5 teams that haven’t voted. Can you post your availability here?
I am also happy to do a slow draft again, agree with SPH that it is by far the most equitable way to do it. Also a fun distraction during the work day for a week or two.
-
I am cool with either. The couch draft was a little harder for me because there are multiple players for auction at a time. But the lack of time constraint is nice.
-
The most equitable and convenient draft by far is the couch draft/slow draft. And if you've never done it, don't be intimidated, it's easy as well. I'm all for it.
-
Hi all - I created a doodle poll here to check on availability for the draft. As in the last we are limiting it to Friday and Saturday nights at 8 Eastern so our international friends can participate
https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/ep9VyjVa
Alternatively- if more than 6 people want to go back to the slow draft format, from 2 years ago, please post here and I can get that set up. Thanks!

I will be renewing but fyi there is a problem with the new paydala thing that needs to be fixed (won’t 2fa to my aus phone no and email codes not sending) - there is a grace period before being booted from the league so should be all fine

Last call: Looking to deal Nola, McKenzie, Yandy Diaz, and/or some relievers.

Excited to be part of this league! As a friendly reminder, the following players are available for trade: Freddie Freeman, Lindor, Bregman, Sandy, and Giolito. Other players can be made available too - as the Million Dollar Man once said, "everybody has a price."
