Hey crew! Just a couple more days to get arbitration allocated. Be sure you have it submitted by 11/14/24. Thanks!
-
Quick reminder - arbitration must be completed by November 14. You've got 9 days!
-
I'm going to be cutting down to a couple of teams for next year so I will be leaving the league! Good luck to everyone and enjoy the off-season!

I tried my best to make it close, but I could never quite catch Zach's relentless pressure and he eventually pulled away. Very impressive, congrats Zach!
-
Congrats to Zach for a dominating performance! Everyone’s roster looks good heading into the offseason. Arbitration is right around the corner. I hope everyone enjoys their postseason baseball!
-
Doesn't look like this will be a problem here, but a reminder that all teams must have legal rosters at the close of the season. Any rosters that show as illegal on Sunday night will need to get within roster spot and salary limits within 48 hours. Roster and salary limits include any loans and/or 60-day IL additions, so you do not need to get to 40/$400, just legal as of eligibility on Sunday.
-
Friendly reminder to anyone interested - there's still time to sign up for the Ottoneu Prestige League (OPL). It's a great add-on to the normal Ottoneu experience as teams from across leagues compete against each other in a best-ball style, survivor-like format. It's a blast to track and play over the course of the season. Check it out and enter here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/
-
All right - great work everyone! The draft is complete and the rosters are loaded. I've made sure the players and salary caps line up, but please double check the individual players on your squads to make sure the proper ones are rostered. We are now in regular season mode and transactions are open!
-
Hey gang! Now that we're in the endgame of this draft I've given everyone an additional nomination.
-
And we’re off! The draft has begun. Get those nominations in!

Hey gang - all the keepers are loaded into coucgmanagers for Monday's draft. The roster spots and money all line up, but please give your team a quick scan and make sure the proper players are there as well. We'll kick off Monday morning at 10:00am!
-
Hey crew! I've got the slow auction room set up. We're set to kick off on Monday morning (3/11) at 10:00am eastern. Between now and then I'll need everyone to join the draft room so I can get the keepers loaded up. Please click the link below, click on "Join" and enter the password. Thanks!

Having heard no objections OUR DRAFT WILL BEGIN ON MONDAY, MARCH 11. I’ll start getting things set up the week prior, so keep your eyes peeled.
-
All right crew - let's talk draft. Given how spread out we are in terms of location and work schedule, we've done a slow auction at couchmanagers the last couple of years. I would propose that we start that slow auction on Monday, March 11th. If that date does NOT work for you please let me know ASAP.
-
Thank you to everyone for getting your league dues in on time - everyone has re-upped. You've got just under 4 hours to make any cuts or trades!
-
Last 12 hours to make any cuts or trades! Don't forget any trade made before tonight's deadline won't process until tomorrow, so you won't be able to cut anyone you acquire.
-
Hey all! Friendly reminder that you have one more day to pay your league dues. Thanks to all of those who have taken care of it already!
-
Hey all! Friendly reminder that you’ve got until Wednesday to get your league dues paid. Thanks to all those who have already knocked that out!
-
Hello ! Looking forward to '24 , 1st order of business is a new team name. I hope there is no fondness for UTVOLS#1

UTVOLS#1 has been claimed - let's welcome Randy to the league! That fills us back up to capacity. Just five more days to trade and get your league dues paid!
-
Chris let me know that he didn't think he'd have the time to dedicate to Ottoneu this year, so I'm still looking for a replacement owner for UTVOLS#1. I've marked the team as abandoned so that it shows up on the available team list. I'm actively seeking out a replacement, but please let me know if you know of someone who might want the spot. Thanks!
-
Good morning all! Just sending along a reminder to get your team renewal payment in. You can do so by clicking through the red banner at the top of this page (unless you've already renewed). Thanks!
-
Happy to be here, will try to get some trades out soon.
-
And we’re full! Everyone please welcome Chris as he takes over UTVOLS#1.
-
Welcome to Kyle Florence who has taken over Down & Away! Welcome to the league my good sir.
-
Welcome to ChetLemon who has taken over Stroman Troopers! He's a longtime Ottoneu player and a pleasure to be in a league with. Still hunting for two more replacements. I'll keep on it!
-
All arbitration is complete - thanks fellas!
-
One more day for arb - please get that submitted everybody!
-
10 days left to get your arbitration in!
-
No worries - it was a pleasure having you! If anyone else is planning on stepping away could you let me know in the next few days? I want to be sure we get arb covered and have a sense of how many teams will need replacement managers. If it’s several I’ll set up a dispersal draft for the new folks.
-
I will also not be returning next season. I really appreciate teaching me on how to play this new format!

Hello, League! Happy to be here, and I hope you all enjoy trading as much as I do. As Zach and Ryan can attest, my trade lines are always open, and EVERBODY on my squad is ALWAYS available (for the right price of course). Looking forward to a fun winter and a competitive 2024! I'm @stringerbias on slack. Cheers!
-
Special thanks to Zach of Down by the Schoolyard for bringing Stringer into the fold. The assist is much appreciated!
-
All right! Please welcome Stringerbias (aka RotoTakeOut) to the league as the new manager of the Royse City Renegades. Dmac will remain a co-owner so that he can claim his prize when it becomes available, then be removed. I played with Stringer for years back in league 32 and can vouch for his competence, responsiveness, and all around gentlemanly nature. Welcome sir!
-
Hey all - we have a new owner for Royse City Renegades. I’ll get him added once prizes have been disbursed.
-
No worries Royse - it was a pleasure playing with you! If you could knock arbitration out I would appreciate it. We’ve got a line on a possible replacement, but I’m happy to start a waiting list if anyone else has interest. If anyone else is planning on leaving please let me know. If multiple teams step away we can do a disbursement draft for the new owners.
-
I will not be returning next season
-
Arbitration is open - start assigning that money!
-
Just a friendly reminder that the trade deadline is this coming Thursday. Get those last minute deals done!
-
Tossed a few names in the block. Hit me up if interested

I don’t see myself clawing back into this one so I’m hanging out the For Sale sign. Inquire within!
-
Hey folks! Just a quick reminder that this league is OPL eligible. If you finished 6th or above last season you can enter your squad to compete across all of Ottoneu in a super fun best ball format. Check out the rules & enter a squad here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/
-
Draft done and rosters loaded! Please double check your rosters to make sure they're accurate and trade away!
-
AUCTION HAS STARTED! Head on over to https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=485 and get your nominations in. Be sure to check out the "auction help" section for a refresher on how reserve bidding works. You can set it up to email you if you get outbid on a player. We'll start at 2 nominations a team. Good luck!
-
All right everybody! Your keepers are loaded into the draft room. Everyone's roster spots and available cash line up with reality, but please do double check the players themselves. Every once in awhile there's a misalignment on player ID or the wrong Luis Garcia gets put in the wrong spot. You can also organize your roster in couchmanagers in a way that makes sense to you. We kick off tomorrow morning at 9:00am Eastern!
