Cuts done... I was bummed I checked out for so long, I had put in years perfecting my mediocrity
-
As far as this owner is concerned the past is the past. Welcome to the league. Remember you only get one round of free cuts so make it count.
-
I just claimed Mrad Biller. Full disclosure, I was a former owner for the past several seasons of the Pen Joss Crackpots. I didn't mean to ghost and plan to make the most of this second oppertunity!
-
I have few league setting up March drafts regardless of what happens to the CBA. I'm good with whatever the league decides to do just note that waiting for a CBA to be finalized before setting a date may not be the best idea.
-
Now that we have passed cut day we have two items to work out. 1) Mrad Biller needs an owner. If you know anybody that might want to join the league, please have them claim the team. They will be able to drop players with no penalty. 2) There is still no CBA, but we can start to talk draft date concepts. Once a CBA is signed things will move very fast, there will be lots of Ottoneu drafts happening in a condensed period of time. So we should be ready for whatever happens.
-
Well at least the only invalid roster is the one that needs an owner. Should be some good bid wars with only 3 teams under $100 to spend.
-
I will be out of contact with internet from about 6pm to 7pm est. If you send me an offer please be patient and I will get back with you as quickly as I can. Thanks.
-
I don't do final cuts until an hour or so before deadline - still time to make offers.
-
Just a reminder to everyone that the deadline to make your offseason cuts and get your rosters legal is 11:59PM EST, Feb 15th. As a reminder, no transactions are allowed afterwards until the draft concludes. Note, if a trade is accepted prior to that deadline it will still go through even if the processing time is after the deadline (but you will have to keep everyone involved in that trade!)
-
Open for business for those last-minute trade offers. Thanks.
-
It has been stated on the community board that those that run the Ottoneu system (not our commish) will NOT be extending the keeper deadline any further - the 15th is final. This is because some leagues still want to hold their draft in mid-late February. The system will not allow drafts to occur until after the keeper deadline. Again, the commish has no control over the deadline. Just giving owners a heads up in case you were holding off on trade deals thinking the deadline would be extended.
-
Welcome to the league Jolly Elves. We hope you enjoy it. Get ready to make some trades!!
-
Welcome to the new owner of Crackpots!
-
The deadline to renew teams have passed. I will set the two teams as abandoned this evening - Pen Joss Crackpots and Mrad Biller. I have an owner on the hook for one team. If you know anyone who wants to join have them hop in.
-
Just a quick reminder, the deadline to renew your teams for 2022 is in five days. Thanks to the eight managers who have done so already. Hopefully everyone else is planning to return as well (if not please let me know ASAP), so please don't forget!
-
FYI - due to the current lockout the cut deadline has been extended to Feb. 15th. $20 team renewals still need to be made by Jan. 31st.
-
Cool. Glad to see you back.
-
Whoops, sorry, the email notifications started going to my spam and I didn't notice. Yes I'll stay
-
Does anyone know if Yelich is playing this year. Hasn't checked in for months. I sent him a message but didn't hear back.
-
It’s that time of year everyone, It’s time to renew your team. The deadline is January 31st but please pay as soon as possible. Let’s get the league all lined up as earlier as possible. Thanks everyone.
-
Happy New Year!
-
Merry Christmas to my fellow owners.
-
Happy Thanksgiving to my fellow owners.
-
Two more weeks until the arbitration deadline. Time to crank up everyone else’s salaries!
-
Congratulations to Hot Corner.
I plan on returning.
-
Please let me know if you DO NOT intend to come back for next season. The earlier you let us know the easier it will be to find a new owner. Thanks everyone.
-
Congratulations Hot Corner on your decisive win! HC rode a crazy-hot Juan Soto 2nd half (87/40 BB to K ratio – what?!) along with Marcus Semien, Matt Olson, Cedric Mullins, Jonathan India, Willy Adames and a surprisingly effective group of SPs who got it done without star-caliber players. It was a very well balanced team that was just too strong for the rest of us to catch. Nice job. Now on to the off-season. Time for the rest of us to fix our teams and try to catch up.
-
great season Hot Corner!
-
Many thanks. It was a fun season. Didn't think I had a chance early on when I had about 15 players on the IL.
-
Congratulations Hot Corner.

Great season. Congrats HC.
-
Good Luck Everyone! I am beyond pumped for baseball tomorrow and for the next 6 months! Lets go Planets!
-
Thanks guys - it's good to know we have an understanding group of owners.
-
Do it
-
I have no problem with it either.

It is fine with me to drop with no cap penalty.
-
I accidentally brought Wilson Ramos up for bid in this league instead of another. I have $0. If I win the bid I’ll go negative. I would ask the commissioner (me) to cancel the bid but that doesn’t seem to be an option in the commissioner tools. If I win the bid for $1 would anyone mind if I cut him for $0 cap penalty? If not, that’s fine - it’s my screw up and I’ll have to find a player of $2 and up to cut. Please let me know your thoughts.
-
I’m looking for SB, probably have some power to trade
-
One last thing....everyone please reset your trade blocks or modify them. Since we just went through cuts and a draft there are bound to be players on your block who are actually on someone else's team now. It can lead to trade confusion, so please take a second and clear them out. Thanks!
-
Great draft everyone. I noticed a lot more restraint than in most drafts. Trout went at a price where he can be kept without breaking the bank! I can't wait for the season (a real season this year). Good luck everyone.
-
Ok. As long as you are sure - we could always stall a few minutes.
-
There is a chance that I may be a few minutes late to the draft tonight. Please do not wait for me, since I don't have much money and will be shopping in the $1-2 aisle.
-
Draft is on Tuesday night - let's go!!!
-
I have set the draft date for March 9th at 8:30 PM EST. There was a comment about moving the draft date closer to opening day. We can discuss that if anyone wants. I like doing them early for two reasons (1) Adds randomness that can occur in spring training into the mix - a little chaos (2) It avoids scheduling conflicts with other drafts - I have a lot of drafts from March 18th onward.
-
I filled out the poll. Just throwing it out that I generally prefer drafting a bit closer to opening day if anyone else agrees. Are the times EST?
-
I am good with any date/time
-
Last call on participating in the doodle poll - I will try to make a draft day choice on Saturday. Here's the link again - https://doodle.com/poll/has8p49y7kcbzdzy?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link.
-
I sent out a doodle poll for the draft date. Here's the link in case you didn't get the email - https://doodle.com/poll/has8p49y7kcbzdzy?utm_source=poll&utm_medium=link. Everyone please participate as soon as possible so we can get to drafting!
-
Welcome to the league!
-
Hi everyone, happy to be here, looking forward to a full season of baseball!
