Hi All. Thanks for getting those arbs in. I and the Papi are going to do the arbs for the Gas House Gorillas. Checking in with Blotto on his.
-
Also, one final reminder: Allocations are due! Please get yours in today!
-
Welcome to our new owner, gamergid. Great to have you here! As for the league name, my co-commissioner named it after the one and only Tim Lincecum.
-
Hey everyone, I just claimed The Musial Suspects! I'm super excited for this team and obsessed with Ottoneu. Just curious: can anyone explain what the league name means?
-
Hi folks! Hope the offseason is going well for you. Just a quick reminder that arbitration is going on now. Please make sure to complete all your allocations by next Thursday (Nov 14). Musial Suspects is also looking for a new owner. So spread the word if you know anyone looking to pick up a team. Thanks!
-
Congrats to the winners this season. It's been great playing with you all, but I just took a new job and I have to take a big step back from Ottoneu. Best of luck, and please mark my team abandoned!
-
First: congrats to the Parlays on a dominant performance, and to Yaz Cats and The Infirmary, who somehow managed to overcome their name for show. My team, not that great. Whither Bobby Miller? Looking forward to the real-life post-season, when I can get back to just enjoying the game. cheers

1st half counts… and Ohtani will also pitch next season…

Yes. But Carroll is at 7.8 pts/game since the all star break. (Shohei is 7.7.) Carroll's first half was way down, but at least he has been elite since...
-
Remember when Ohtani was trade for Corbin Carroll… yuck

also i paid $15 for justin turner because i thought i was bidding for trea turner.
-
hey ya'll-- well the auction ended rather abruptly. not sure entirely what happened. i thought i was having tech problems here at home-- but then that was that and i could not restart.
i'm afraid that will have to be it and we will now go to slow auctions...
-
All right, looks like we’ve got twelve competitors here for the ‘24 Timmy crown.
And holy cow, our auction is next Sunday, 5:30p west coast, 8:30 east. See you there!
-
Applause to the killer team name!

Hey everyone. Hope you're all getting excited about the new season. I wanted to welcome our new owner of the former Bergenfield Black Bears, now The Hunter Renfroe October, RUDDRUN. Good to have you here!
-
Welcome to our 2 new owners! Glad you could join us.
Everyone, I’ll mention again I’ve got March 10th, 8:30 east coast time set for the 2024 auction.
Have a Super weekend- oppo
-
OK, mens, it looks like both Bergenfeld and Murder Hornets haven't re-upped their teams. d'Arnaud is already abandoned, so I think we're looking at 3 new owners for 2024.
I've set a tentative date of Sunday March 10 for the auction.
-
We have a new owner for the Black Bears and are once again back to a full roster of owners, though of course the moment of truth is when everyone has to re-up in January.
In any case, Welcome to WHEREAMIDUDE23! Everyone take care of yourselves -- more latte, Oppo
-
Ok, I've updated all salaries, adding 50 ttl dollars across the board. Thanks for the help, gentlemens. Stay safe & enjoy the hot stove.
-
Hi, I find the other allocations quite OK, for your roster I would allocate 1$ to Sean Murphy and Brent Rooker
-
will do Saturday afternoon
-
hey papi -- i did some arbs for Public D -- second tab of this spreadsheet.
maybe you could allocate the dollars to my team.
and adjust any others that you think might be more appropriate?
i did my best but i'd like if you could look em over....

Well, all i can say is, the quantum universe can be a pretty strange place. I'll send you a link for a google sheet-- you can just plug in names and numbers and i can enter them manually.
-
Hahaha it says I never allocated to Blotto Otto… but got all 10 other teams… funny for Blotto yet frustrating it doesn’t save the rest of em 🤣🤣. However is easiest to redo would be great!

Weird, I thought I saw you had too earlier, but they don't show up. Do you want to send your choices to the commissioners?
-
I swore I allocated….??

Hi All -- hope you are looking ahead to good holidays -- we'll be doing the arbs for D'Arnaud and The Infirmary in the commissioners office over the weekend. Cheerio.
-
Hi again, folks. Just a reminder that arbitration ends tonight. Make sure to get your allocations done if you haven't yet!
-
Yes, welcome again, Chet. Good to have you here!
-
Thanks! Renamed the team and just finished up arb. I believe we have met before as I was in the league a few seasons ago, but couldn't resist scooping up a team with Carrol, Langford and Chourio!
-
Hey- Welcome to the new New New York Mets!
Chet Lemon. Haven't we met before?
-
Hey all- arbitration is open! Have fun. Thanks to all who’ve already taken care of business.
-
Hi everyone - congrats on a great season. Now that we got to arbitration, I wanted to let you all know that I'd like to step down from my team. Thank you!
-
Seriously! That got really close at the end. Maybe I took my eye off the standings, but it seemed a bit surprising after what seemed like dominance. Well, good on yer.
-
Thank you and congrats to all on a well played season. A lot of fun in this league. Hell of a finish too, murder hornets with a heck of a run at the end to make it really interesting. Looking forward to the off-season!

a somewhat belated congratulations to the Bloominati on an exciting win and a terrific season, and kudos to the place and show finishers for what you done to get into the winner's circle. no time to say any more but it was fun all season long. i mean except for the fact I'm bad at the game. enjoy the postseason, enjoy the offseason, enjoy the hot stove, take care and stay safe. all the best, Oppo.
-
I vetoed, as did 6 others. Thems the rules. I've never seen it happen either, but it seems to me The People have spoken clearly here.
-
Well there you go.
-
Wow, I've never seen a trade vetoed in Ottoneu before.

The trade clears at 5:49p eastern tonight, 2:49p westa coasta, so as of this moment just another 6+ hours to approve or veto. Cheers.
-
??
-
That trade that just happened I’m assuming was a joke right lol?

Will never let fantasy baseball ruin friendships, I’m just a baseball dork at the end of the day. Had to talk a little crap about it. I do think owners who aren’t playing next year and know this should not be allowed to trade. Had a huge problem with this in another league that folded for this reason. Mets was clearly not colluding, want this to be clear and can trade with whoever, but if you know you are leaving, should maybe not trade I think.
Cheers
-
As a co manager with bloom we actually took two different sides of the trade so it’s pretty in line. I for one would love to know when a player like ohtani or even carrol is available and it seems good practice to try to get the most competition for trade value but we all run our teams at different levels. I’ve seen friendships ruined over fantasy trades, if it ain’t collusion just have to respect the owner evals.

Hi Folks, Hey let’s remember this is fantasy and we are friends. I’ve noticed over time that you never really know how history will judge a trade— you just don’t know. At this point in my life as commissioner I have a 99.67% absolute policy to never inject myself into a trade situation. Because you just do not know. I think it’s a fascinating trade TBH — and not necessarily crazy for either side. And there's no reason whatsoever there's collusion here.
-
In general ottoneu community like yourself feels a really weird entitlement to what other managers do. no worries between the murder hornets thing being the closest thing to banter this league has and you crying in a public chat that you didnt check in with me about anyone let alone ohtani is clown stuff. New manager for the squad next year I think will appreciate the corbin contract and bryce. good luck kid
-
$4 Carroll could eat all $33 in arbitration and still be a decent keep next year. Not sure id say the same about Ohtani. He might be the best contract going right now

$4 Carroll is a great asset. I might have tried to get more, but it wasn't like Ohtani was given away.
-
You traded the greatest baseball player of all time basically straight up. What planet are you living on lol, you posted about Beiber but not Ohtani, that’s much weirder than “the ottoneu community” piping up AFTER a HORRIFIC trade.
It’s all love in here, just HAD to comment on this one
-
couldnt be more over how ottonue owners only pipe up after someone else makes a trade. XD what a weird community.
