• Feels like balls are flying this years? Catchers are killing it too, no? BTW, I may need a upgrade at 2B or OF as two of my starting OFs went down.. If any one wants to send me trade ideas.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on March 29, 2025 7:16 PM

• Last thing-I believe the league is up and running for the season. Feel free to start auctions. Let me know if you need any roster changes from the auction.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 28, 2025 11:09 PM

• Hey there-updated the rosters from the now completed auction. Double check your rosters, make sure they're correct, and we can get the league started ASAP. Thanks for making it through. I appreciate everyone's help...no matter how useless (Honorable Team) it was this past week.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 28, 2025 11:00 PM

• I'm hitting the start button on the auction. You can use the chat feature in the auction page to communicate. 10 hour for initial auctions. 8 hours for resets. Please play your max bid whenever necessary. Try to pass when you don't want the player up for auction. MOST IMPORTANTLY: Have fun.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 23, 2025 2:26 PM

• Auction is full. Please head over to the auction page https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=1087 and double check your rosters. I'd like to hit the "start" button tomorrow after noon CT tomorrow.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 22, 2025 4:37 PM

• No worries. It’s a busy world. Thanks! One more and we’ll be ready to go!

  A Shot in the Arm on February 21, 2025 7:04 PM

• I'm in. Sorry for being a delinquent.

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on February 21, 2025 2:49 PM

• We are 2 away from filling the auction: AJ's ToothGap and Moonlight (I think). Once they come aboard, I'll import rosters.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 21, 2025 1:49 PM

• A quick password change. When you enter the draft, it will ask for a password. I had to change it due to some "unforeseen accidents" from friends of ours in another league. As a result, the new password is "baseball". If you're already in the CM draft, you are good. If not?-sign up soon!

  A Shot in the Arm on February 20, 2025 12:31 PM

• Just FYI-when joining the CM auction page, could you edit your name to better reflect your team’s name? Makes the importing of rosters a lot easier.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 19, 2025 9:18 PM

• Hey everyone: I built the auction room at Couchmanagers-Please join and use the name that MOST closely resembles your team name in the auction. Once everyone joins and I import rosters and we double check for errors, we can begin. Probably will take us a week to get it going.

• It feels early, but I don't have a problem. The time between cut deadline and acution is the worst part of the Ottoneu year so lets get it over with.

  Rollie's Fingers on February 13, 2025 6:14 PM

• Yep. Many of us are beginning an auction in a separate league this weekend. As that auction progresses, I will put together a couchmanager’s auction site that we can join. I expect to start our auction in a week or 2.

  A Shot in the Arm on February 12, 2025 1:22 PM

• It's probably time to start talking about auctions, right? My other leagues are scheduling theirs.

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on February 12, 2025 11:34 AM

• FYI-Remember: Cuts are due by Jan 31 at midnight. Also, renew your team. Don't forget-Paydala can be funky sometimes. (It was fine for me when I renewed Monday morning).

  A Shot in the Arm on January 28, 2025 9:54 PM

• Moving Cole, Arenado, etc. If interested, send me offers.

  A Shot in the Arm on January 18, 2025 12:12 PM

• In an attempt not to relitigate the last time this happened I will just say that this does not appear to be collusive or one manager clearly taking advantage of another.
  
  In fact, I personally didn't like the Trea Turner end of that deal which is only relevant to demonstrate that these deals are often very subjective, which is why they shouldn't be vetoed unless there are clear reasons to do so.
  
  FWIW I had already approved the trade.

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on January 15, 2025 7:04 AM

• I am voting to veto the Trey Turner trade. He is a top 20 player with a decent salary, and this is not a fair trade. I hope most agree, so that a new trade can be reworked.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on January 15, 2025 3:22 AM

• January 31

  Italian breakfast club on December 25, 2024 11:11 PM

• When is the deadline to make cuts?

  Moonlight Graham on December 25, 2024 7:03 PM

• Btw, it is the owner of The Fantasy Vibes… I am still here.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on December 2, 2024 11:35 AM

• The owner of Tai Hills had to leave the league. He was already a new owner, but felt he couldn't dedicate himself to the league. If you know anyone that would like to join our merry bunch, let me know. I'll probably give it until Thanksgiving before I open it up "to the wolves" of the Ottoneu community.

  A Shot in the Arm on November 18, 2024 11:33 AM

• Don't forget: Arbitration ends on Nov 14. A little over a week to make someone's day special!

  A Shot in the Arm on November 6, 2024 1:28 PM

• Happy Arbitration Season! Be gentle.

  A Shot in the Arm on October 14, 2024 10:02 PM

• The owner of "Horrible Team" has requested that I abandon his team. I will give everyone the week to give me a new owner for the team. If no one takes the team, I will open it up for the Ottoneu masses.

  A Shot in the Arm on October 8, 2024 11:41 AM

• Congrats on the win Shot. What team is available? On a side note, we were really close to qualifying for the badge when every team in a league scores about 15,000 - that's impressive. I've got a friend in Asia who might join, but because he's in Asia, I would need to pay for him. Is that okay?

  Maikel Franco Allstars on October 2, 2024 11:38 AM

• FYI-We are in need of at least 1 new owner for 2025 season. If you know of someone in need of a obsessive fantasy baseball experience, let me know in the next week or so. If not, I will abandon the team and open it to the Ottoneu public to fill.

  A Shot in the Arm on October 2, 2024 8:44 AM

• If you intend on leaving the league, please let me know. I'd prefer to find replacements well BEFORE arbitration season begins. Thanks for all your efforts. The difference between 1st and last isn't that great-sign of a good league IMHO.

  A Shot in the Arm on October 1, 2024 12:56 PM

• Thanks. I had a solid 300 point day that pushed me ahead. Just enough innings left to keep it stable. Happy to have a Championship.

  A Shot in the Arm on October 1, 2024 12:55 PM

• Awesome season, I had lots of fun! Thanks to everyone that was open to trading with me, and congrats to Shot and Rollie! I feel most teams have made moves to improved in different ways, so I am already looking forward to offseason and next year as I see new challengers arising.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on October 1, 2024 12:43 AM

• Congrats Shot for turning on the gas this past month and tying a bow on the season. There was a moment this was close... and then it wasn't. Congrats to Tals for catching Vibes for third.

  Rollie's Fingers on September 30, 2024 5:13 PM

• Thanks. And I left Eovaldi on the bench with a supposed "bad matchup" vs. Yankees. Good day though. I was risking a lot of innings to get a big day-worked out.

  A Shot in the Arm on September 5, 2024 1:24 PM

• A 300+ point day?! Come on, give the rest of us a chance!

  Rollie's Fingers on September 5, 2024 11:27 AM

• ok, thanks. I will try to find it.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on August 8, 2024 11:15 AM

• Yeah, it's an issue with missing fangraphs data over the last few days. It's supposedly almost fixed. There an ottoneu community post about it.

  Maikel Franco Allstars on August 8, 2024 10:58 AM

• Anyone noticed that the games projection went down by about 5-7 games today? I had most of my infield position at 162 games projected last night, today 155-157.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on August 8, 2024 10:53 AM

• Loved that trade - Yordan for Tucker! Win Win! Congrats!

  Tal Hill's Climbers on July 31, 2024 2:48 PM

• Nah, I just hate being late. Consider this fire sale to be the fantasy baseball equivalent of showing up to work 15 minutes early.

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on July 30, 2024 1:33 PM

• Did we all forget that the Ottoneu trade deadline isn't the same date as the MLB deadline?

  Rollie's Fingers on July 30, 2024 1:28 PM

• Brian’s just internet trolling-it’s his day job now.

  A Shot in the Arm on May 30, 2024 4:23 PM

• Which side?

  Rollie's Fingers on May 30, 2024 3:43 PM

• Shady as

  All Black Balls on May 30, 2024 3:38 PM

• You guys might want to chalk the vetoes up to being on the internet. Some people veto for the love of the game.

  get out the rye bread and mustard on May 16, 2024 10:28 PM

• FWIW if anyone IS interested in getting fleeced, slide into my DMs

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on May 16, 2024 6:22 PM

• Well, please acept my appologies for not understanding and having the wrong opinion. I am available for DM if you feel like continuing the conversation.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on May 16, 2024 6:20 PM

• Ok. We’ve all had a voice in this thing. A few laughs a couple of tears. I think we can move on and see how I can win this league.

  A Shot in the Arm on May 16, 2024 6:17 PM

• You're missing the point. There's nothing to 'applaud' me for. I didn't 'pull' a trade. This trade essentially shifts forward the value of my roster, and shifts his back. It's no different than when teams who are out of contention trade currently healthy players for guys on the IL. Just because you didn't understand it doesn't mean it should be vetoed. And I'm not taking anything personally. I am concerned I'm in a league where people veto trades they don't like just because they dislike them

  Aaron Judge's Tooth Gap on May 16, 2024 6:15 PM

• I have not even completed my first season in Ottoneau, and I am having a lot of fun, and the last thing I would like if for you to feel like you have to leave.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on May 16, 2024 6:02 PM

• Again, do not take it personally, and it looks like I am completely wrong questioning the trade and how it could affect the league, so please accept my apologies if you feel like I was advocating for vetos. My questions was if I was missing something, because in my mind this was an easy vetoed trade, but again, looks like other factors like collusion are what triggers a veto.

  Tal Hill's Climbers on May 16, 2024 6:02 PM

• In my opinion, the way the trade was structured affects the whole league, and again, in my opinion, it affects negatively beer pong as he could have been in a better position to make future moves after this trade. I like to compete, and would like every team to be in it and use strategies, work around roster and budget restrictions, and have fun at it.
