Just under a week left to put in your arbitration dollars. Or to change them if you want. If anyone is having any issues, please reach out so we can help!
-
Happy Arbitration Day to all! May your players be spared and your competitors get nailed!
-
Thank you for the update. Would you do us all a favor? Send us a reminder as to when we can begin this process? Last year, I made a boo boo, and I don't want to repeat said boo boo. Thanks!

Allocations take place after the initial offseason salary increase, so any allocations will be in addition to the $1 or $2 increase each player gets at the end of the season.
If a team does not allocate at least one dollar to every other team, none of their allocations will count and it will be as if they did not participate at all.
If a team does not allocate all $25, none of their allocations will count and it will be as if they did not participate at all.
-
Nevermind, i found it in the Rules page:
Allocations
The allocation system gives a $25 budget to each team in the league.
The team must allocate this budget towards players on other teams.
Each team must allocate at least one dollar to every other team, and no team can allocate more than $3 to any other team.
At the end of the allocation period, all players have their salary increased by the amount allocated towards them.
-
Can someone provide a refresher (or a link) about the rules for the upcoming arbitration process? (Starts Friday, i believe)

Congrats to Hector and the Nerd Crew! Great season!

Congrats Hector Nerds! And congrats to all! We had 4 teams in the SABR Leagues Top 50. And I think we'll be competitive again next year.
-
Everyone,
Even though I didn't reach my modest performance goal for 2021, I still enjoyed the competition. It would have helped if I learned earlier how to better deploy pitching.
I'm looking forward to 2022!
Congratulations to Hector Nerds for taking home the championship!

Lol I posted in the wrong league. In any case thanks for the great season everybody and enjoy the drama as it unfolds. Personally I was pretty excited watching the Ms last night!
-
Well congrats 2 Vafa on securing his final position. I think I’m going to watch Thor and Morton pitch may that calm the nausea.
-
It's felt for a while like the Beat the Freeze game from Atlanta, except there's two of us and I don't know if either will be able to catch up! Certainly has made for a fun and unique chase.
-
Being out in front has been a ton of fun but I don't think I'm going to make it to the finish line. Hector and Pawnee both hitting their stride while my guys are fading and I'm about to hit position caps. Pretty exciting that it's coming down to the wire like this, though I do miss my gigantic lead from about a month ago :)
-
Everyone, I’ve ordained Lindor Truffles as co-commissioner. He’s a solid gent and has graciously agreed to provide back up when necessary. Big ups.
-
One thing I can’t get my head around bfg: why is it that our point rates are nearly identical and we are virtually tied in total points even though you’ve used ~130 more innings? Does our small difference in ab’s account for that? Also, those of you who burned innings have made it very difficult to predict what the standings are. Nevertheless I admire the commitment.
-
Haha, thanks BfG. Since I'm gonna hit that innings cap super early I don't feel like anything's been decided yet. I should have been more selective with who I was starting, especially earlier in the year.
-
Just wanted to say holy shit, Crab Key Dragons. You took first and really ran away with it. Nice work. Meanwhile I didn’t expect to compete and then found myself in first for long enough that I didn’t make any trades when the league was still more competitive. I planned on tearing it down this year and then had to pivot. Oh well- there’s always next, next year! (And a competitive race for second place…)

My apologies, as my previous posting was vague.
I'm looking at infield options, in general, primarily as future options.
I can take on salary.
Thank you.

I'm looking for a third baseman, or, at least, another good option for this and future years.
My trade block is updated and I am willing to consider all offers.
Thank you.

Bauer’s up for grabs. It’s not like it does him any good to be on your team, I just can’t stomach pulling for the guy and I don’t like to roster players I can’t at least support even a little bit.

If anyone is looking to deal, I updated my trade block and want list. Money could potentially be assumed in trade. Thank you.

I believe I have room to trade one SP. Let me know if you have interest in one. I would like a big bat.

For all in the mood to kick off the trades now, I am willing to make some moves if anyone on my roster suits your fancy.

Ouch. Every year it feels like 40 man rosters are so many players. Then injuries start happening and you end up using everyone in some way or another. But 9 sure is a lot. Hopefully they'll be back and healthy soon!
-
Nine guys on the IL. Nine.
Is it time to throw the towel in already? Geez.
-
I don't know the answer to that. I've never noticed a problem as early as 6 AM EST-ish.
-
What time do pitching starters update with the check mark each day? I missed out on starting two pitchers yesterday, because I updated my lineup at 5am.

I'm about 99% kidding on all of it. Honestly, I didn't think the season would happen last year throughout the spring and Ottoneu coming down to the last day in dramatic fashion was a rare bright spot in a terrible year for so many.
And I won't forget realizing the ramifications of the potential extra Cardinals-Tigers game while on a walk with our not-yet 1 year old and scrambling to block some of your pickups Zizzers. Lol
-
Haha, I don’t blame you. That’s a tough way to go down and it’s a long time to wait for redemption. The year before I lost on the last day as well so I get it. I think my admiration for Grandal will last as long as your grudge toward Romo, haha.

Wouldn't be a very nice care package. Lol.

Truffles did you send Romo a care package?

Happy Opening Day to you as well! Though, I must say, after sitting with it for six months, I still haven't forgiven Sergio Romo for how last year ended.

Happy Opening Day!

Rosters should be unlocked, you should be able to open slow bids now.

I emailed out a reminder with a few details for Sunday’s draft. Best shape of my life fellas. Heat on the gun get ready.

Alright rosters are set for the draft! Thanks to everyone for showing up.

I claimed OU812.
This is my second year in Ottoneu, but my first year in this format.

Hello! Just claimed You Say Asdrubal, I Say Odubel. Long-time fantasy player but an Ottonewb. Excited to dig in. March 7 should work out for me just fine.
-
You’re good! I live on the west coast so I miss that one occasionally too.
-
I’m good with draft date and time. And I like the way you capitalized EASTERN. Lol. Yep, I get it. That was for me. Lol.
-
Our draft is set for March 7, 1pm EASTERN. Please let me know if you have a conflict.
-
We’ve added one new manager, he’ll have roughly 24 hours to post his free cuts. I’m going to open the other two squad’s up as I haven’t heard any additional interest.
-
Alright we have 3 slots to fill and some interest. Send me a note if you know somebody who’d be a good league mate. I’ll abandon any remaining teams in the next day or two if necessary.
