Good afternoon...A couple things I wanted to mention. First, we have a new manager for Lake Superior Gales, so I would like to welcome Andrew back to the league (he was in this league many many years ago). Second, arbitration is open and runs through Nov 14th, so please don't forget to arbitrate. That's all for now. Enjoy the baseball playoffs...As a Giants fan, not so much :-)
-
Congrats on a hell of a season, MLB! Thanks commish and everyone else for making this such an enjoyable league. Already looking forward to next year.
-
Big congrats. Very well earned.

My first ottoneu wreath! Props to LSG and () for the gracious plaudits and fighting the odds to the finish, and to Travis for steering the ship steadily. This team has largely been babied along the old-fashioned way, and it finally paid dividends in a big way (between this here, and a deep OPL run). What a year! I'm so ready for a break, yet I can't wait to arbitrate. Ottoneu never really ends... best fucking fantasy format ever.
-
well done shohei dude. killed this league and a real strong showing in prestige league too boot, good job!
-
Congrats to MLB, Lake, and the artist formally known as a symbol "()". This was another good year for the league. Please let me know if you don't plan on returning so that we can fill any vacant spots early in the off-season.
-
At this point it doesn’t seem presumptuous to say: Congrats, Shohei! Took a star-studded team all the way in a dominant showing.
-
Just FYI: Luis Robert is no longer available.
-
Trea Turner sucks. Entertaining all reasonable trade offers. Emphasis on reasonable.
-
As soon as you cut him, he’s going to catch fire!
-
Hunter Dozier still sucks...0 for his last 27.

Nice! Sone lucky manager is going to benefit from my too-early trigger finger

We've got a Dozier auction! LOL

Rotoworld: Dozier has gone yard in back-to-back games and has all four of his homers (plus 10 of his 13 RBI) on the year over the last 11 contests, but he's hitting only .195 (8-for-41) during that stretch.
-
Sounds like you've got a lot going on, man. I'm sorry about that. But given the trade offers that go around this league, I'm not sure why you're so offended by this one. I wasn't trying to take advantage of your kid's health issues. I don't even know you! I saw a manager who wasn't playing for this year and sent him a trade offer for his market-value players. No offense intended.
-
Thanks for the well wishes. You’re clearly a really stand up guy. Robert has a torn hip flexor, is out for at least 4 months, and who knows how he’ll recover and you asked for my two best players in return. I was not interested in publicly litigating which is why I didn’t name you, but your post only reinforces that you’re a jerk.
-
I'm that team. I offered you a $12 Robert, who went in the 3rd round this year and is 22 years old. You're clearly not playing this year, so I thought it was a nice rebuilding piece. I really didn't mean to be offensive. I'm sorry you took it that way.
Anyway, Robert's on the block for any team that is rebuilding.
-
My apologies for being MIA. My wife and baby have been dealing with some serious medical issues. That said, it’s no excuse for a team (I won’t name names) to try to take advantage and slip badly injured players into trades while acting like they’re healthy and maintain full value. In addition to being pathetic, it shows a lot about the owner’s character as a person.
-
Let's hope Justus is playing. If not, then how piss poor is my squad!

Anyone know if Justus is playing? He’s had Kieboom in his MI slot the whole season
-
Yes! I need cap space! I might have to pay up to $10 for Ynoa! Have you seen his stats???
-
Dozier with two base hits today!
-
BINGO
-
To be fair, the Dozier post did make me go take a look at his season stats real quick. Yikes! You must need some cap space, eh?

Lies! Fake news! Dozier is AMAZING. Please, don't anyone pick him up :)
-
pass that fire you smokin' this way
-
since you cut him hes gone 0-5 with a walk and caught stealing.
-
I KNEW as soon as I dropped Hunter Dozier that guy would heat up. He’s on fire and I put him on the waiver wire. Ugh. Now some lucky SOB is going to get him for only $3.
-
Happy birthday, Carlos Santana. Enjoy your shiny new $2 contract!
-
A friendly reminder that the draft is tomorrow, March 18th, at 9 PM Eastern. Looking forward to it.
-
We have our draft date!!! It is Thursday March 18th and 9pm EST.
-
Hello all, now that it looks like we have a tentatively solid MLB start date, let's confirm a draft date. Please fill out the doodle poll and we will nail down a date. Thanks.

Hello all, don't forget that the trade/cut deadline is this Sunday (1/31). So, make sure to get those deadline deals in and you roster down to size by Sunday. Also, later this week I will be sending out a Doodle Poll to schedule the draft. So, be on the lookout for that too. Cheers, Travis
-
I hope everyone enjoyed the break. Don't forget that allocation ends this Saturday, the 14th. So, please complete your allocations by then. Then let the trading commence.
-
Thanks!, great battle, rough season!

Also, just in case anyone was unsure...We are one of the best and most competitive leagues that exist. Take a look. https://pointsabove.com/2020/08/07/ottoneu-power-rankings-july-2020/

Congrats to Lake and Gibblets!! It came all the way to the last day and we ended up with co-champions. Bravo! Also, way to go Wolf for fighting to the very end and snagging that final podium spot. Arbitration will start in a few weeks and then trading season will be here before we know it. Then we get to do this all over again.
-
coming down to the final week yet again. this is excellent.

Goldschmidt still available; inquire within, and win!
-
Clevinger is available for anyone who is interested. Happy trade deadline day, everyone!!!
-
My ottoneu football league has a recently abandoned team- calling for an owner. It's a longtime league (14 years) that I moved over to ottoneu just last season. Let me know if interested, I have to make it publicly available within another day or two. 4 of us here have teams there- join up!
-
I had Hosmer the last 2 years and I would have missed that day too.
-
Eric Hosmer’s Career Day (on the bench)
-
How did I NOT start Eric Hosmer???
-
Happy opening day everyone!!!! Good luck.
-
Well, in trying to looking for silver linings, I guess injured players will now have more time to recuperate before actual opening day
