FFFS’s arbitration has been applied. Please check to be sure that I haven’t screwed up. Otherwise, you are free to make deals. Happy holidays.
-
Ok...change Judge to $1
Neuman---Sale $1
Nippes---Witt $1
-
Forgot that detail...will fix tonight..
Ill change the $3 to two to get the $1 for two teams
-
That's only 9 teams. Official arbitration rules say that all 11 teams must be given at least $1 in arbitration.
-
palace---Henderson, Volpi, Webb $1 each
les---Qzuna, Steer, Wheeler $1 each
dogs---Ohtani ($1), Soto ($2)
otto---Cease, Ragans, Valdez $1 each
gaeg---Skenes ($3)
3701---Skubal ($3)
rock---Gilbert ($3)
tribe---Judge ($3)
taco---Duran $1
sorry for the extra work
-
will have them in to you today...I'll keep the count to a min as best I can
-
Send me your arbitration targets FFFS. I will manually add them. In the meantime, please don't complete any trades. You haven't so far...
-
I definitely think we need arb allocations from FFFS. I would prefer sooner or later, so that it doesn’t impact trades. I have a strong preference that each team arbs - it helps ensure competitive balance, among other things.

*arbitrate, not *are
-
If you have a candidate for FFFS invite them...if not I'll keep the team and lmk if you want me to are for manual entry or skip it
-
I have abandoned Newman. I have also temporarily taken the league private so that a certain Ottoneu addict doesn’t claim the team. I’m not sure what the squirrels are asking us to do.
-
HR Superstars...sincere apologies for missing arb...and I was kind of responsible to keep Neuman on schedule since I invited him to try Ottoneu...he never really took to it and he'd like to turn in his team...so consider him out...as for me I'll leave up to y'all...if you want to find or have a new owner for FFFS invite them...
-
Welcome Steve. Little tip: Trade me all your good players and you'll get along just fine in this league, and in life.
Should we find new owners for FFFS and Newman? It's been months since they've logged in so assuming they're out moving forward

Welcome Steve! And good luck for the upcoming season!!!
-
Please welcome the new owner of 3701. I have played with him in other Ottoneu leagues, and he will be a welcome addition to our league.
-
I have just added Roll Tribe’s arb manually. Roll Tribe, please check to see that I haven’t made a typo or any other kind of error.
-
Unless anyone objects, Roll Tribe can send his arb to me and I will add them manually.
-
Forgot to get my arb in, I’ve been getting killed at work. Can send over manually today if that works

Yeah, Brokedown, congratulations to a fine season! Very well played…
-
3701 has let me know this is his final year. He has graciously offered to do arbitration if necessary. Does anyone know an owner who would like to take over the team? Do we want to abandon the team now?
-
Congrats! Nice season!

Congrats, Brokedown Palace. I was MIA most of the year and wasted a monster season of Aaron Judge but hope to be back next year despite a baby girl coming in February.

It was a great race Lesbos. I thought you were going to take it. Well played.

Unfortunately, we couldn't make it a real nail biter. Very impressive chip Brokedown! Well earned!

Not to take away from Ohtani (or history) but he doesn't come to the plate 6 times if the Dodgers aren't pouring on runs, he doesn't drive in 10 baserunners if the Dodgers don't put 21 men on base. And the three HRs came off a position player, an RP who started the year in AAA and has an ERA over 6, and an RP who's been DFA'ed four times this season by four different teams. Now you hate me.

I saw that no player in baseball history has ever had in his entire career (same game or not): a game with 10+ RBIs, a game with 6+ hits, a game with 5+ XBH, a game with 3+ HRs, and a game with 2+ SBs. Ohtani did that all in the same game.

This is a great question. Roger Bannister breaking the 4-minute mile? Eliud Kipchoge breaking the 2-hour marathon? (you can tell I'm a runner)? If we expand the definition of sport, what about Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay summiting Everest? Or Roald Amundsen reaching the South Pole? I would lean towards an individual event - something like Bolt - since it removes the impact of competition, teammates, etc.

Tiger at the 2000 US Open was a four day event, but pretty damn dominant.

Last night was the greatest individual performance a baseball player has ever had in one game, yes? And to go even wider, is it the greatest one game performance in any sport? Wilt Chamberlain scoring 100 points is up there, Usain Bolt breaking the 100m dash record in the Olympics, Katie Ledecky winning by the length of the pool. What else is there?

I would like to make a trade. The race for third and a little bronze trophy is quite competitive and I midas whale go for it. I could use help with quality RP and 2B. I think I can move some OF, 1B or SS depth. It can be small deal just to make a deal or we can go nuts. But we need some trades before the deadline.

If at first you don't succeed, try try again :)
-
Another year of winning Mike Trout in auction, another year of being disappointed by the result. Can't wait to do it again next year.
-
Also, when they trade Robert/Fedde/Crochet, unless they get back ML ready talent, next year might even be worse. Anyways, go Bears, go Caleb Williams, it's football season
-
The baffling thing(s) are 1) How did it get this bad so quickly? They made the playoffs in 20, won the division in 21 and were in the division race in September in 22. And two seasons later they're historically bad. 2) They actually have some good players! Luis Robert, Garrett Crochet, Eric Fedde. How bad are the rest of the guys that even with these three that they're still historically bad?
-
The White Sox are on pace for 42 wins this season. Every other team in the AL (except Oakland, with 41) has already eclipsed that mark. Sorry, Gaeger.

This isn’t shaping up to be my year. Open to trading off pieces for young keepable talent for next year. Ohtani is probably the only player I would want to hang onto. Message me if you want to talk trades.

3701, you picked a good week to trade for Gorman!

In 2022, I had two offers I was weighing for Mike Trout. Spencer Torkelson, Jeffrey Springs and Reid Detmers. Or bobby Witt, Adolis Garcia and Cole Winn. I'll let you guess which offer I took. I am the White Sox of our league
-
Open to offers on a $57 Acuna. Looking to stay competitive this season. Willing to accept discounted returns given the injury.
