-
Updated my trade block. Let me know if you're interested in anyone
-
probably should have cut Bauer s00ner. idk
-
HAPPY OPENING DAY ALL!!!!!
-
I'll pass at the moment....:)
-
Look like Light Sabermetrics wants to trade his team for yours Jeffโฆ Lol.
What say you?
-
Two hours! This will be my first draft of the season. It feels odd to say that during the final week of March.
-
22 hours until the auction
-
Three days until the auction!
-
Seven days until the auction begins!
-
Monday Final Update: The auction date and time will be Monday, March 28th at 5 PM PT. Thanks to everyone for getting their preferences entered!
-
Sunday afternoon SitRep: Eleven votes and and Monday, March 28th still works for everyone.
-
Saturday afternoon SitRep: Ten owners have entered their availability. Still looking at Monday, March 28th.
-
Friday afternoon SitRep: Nine of the twelve owners have entered their availability. Only one day is unanimous -- Monday, March 28th. Another update will be coming tomorrow afternoon.
-
Got the invite. Will try and update asap.
-
The CBA has the season starting on April 7th. That compresses the time we have to schedule and execute the auction. I'll send an invite to the When Available site to your email address. I've set a March 16th deadline to respond. If you don't have that email invite by tomorrow morning, let me know.
-
Looks like baseball is back! Time to start scheduling that auction now?

Todayโs โbargainingโ session isnโt leaving me hopeful for baseball anytime soon.
-
There won't be baseball before May (if then) IMO. I would certainly prefer to know before auction if there's going to be a season at all, and have a little more idea of where the remaining FAs are going to sign. I wish the keeper deadline had been pushed further back so that trades could continue in the meantime, but I'm in no rush to draft.

I agree, let's wait until they reach an agreement
-
I think Duck & I are on same pageโฆ thatโs why I say wait till March 1 before making a decision (unless a deal is reached b4 then of course). BUT, I will always go with majority. Again, just 1 mans thoughts. ๐
-
I don't mind waiting a little bit, but I also think we should work with a more concrete timeframe. Manfred said last week that 28 days was enough to get the season going from the monent they had a deal. Of course you can't trust him 100% but I think that gives us an idea... and hopefully today's meeting will give us an idea as to whether the season can still start on time.
-
I agree with holding off on setting a draft date. Where players sign effects not only their value but the value of others around them. Its hard to have a draft with so many unknowns. Once this gets settled, it will be at least 5-6 weeks (if not more) until a season would start. That gives us plenty of time to set a draft date.
-
Good idea, Charlie re: talking about the draft. However, Iโm on the other side of the spectrum. Iโd prefer to set a date to do it regardless of whether we know when the season will start or not. Doesnโt have to be ASAP but similar time frame weโd have if we were going to have a season. I like that ottoneu is basically a year round game. If we wait then we could be in limbo stage for many months and lead to more owners becoming disengaged. Just one persons opinion though.
-
So what is the thought process concerning the draft with the lockout still in place?โฆ personally Iโd like to wait as long as possible. As long as draft is done before pitch #1 of the โ22 season.
Just starting the conversationโฆ
Thoughts???
-
We are at last call for the keeper deadline. Last minute cuts need to be entered within the next few hours.
-
Willians has missed the second deadline and the team is now listed as abandoned. It is showing as abandoned on a community page. We are back to searching for another owner. More soon.
-
League Status: We may have an opening as Willians has not paid and is just a couple of days away from being marked as abandoned. Also, the keeper deadline is next week. Get your cuts done before February 15th!
-
Two weeks until the trade deadline....anyone interested in trying to find a deal? Seems like we've hit a little bit of a lull, but I'd be excited to try and end that. Just need a partner :)
-
Four days remain to renew your team (for the two owners who have not yet). End of day on Saturday is your deadline. After that deadline, teams not renewed will be abandoned.
-
Fringy Tools is now Duck Season
-
Love the trade action! 2 deals in a day for both wanderlust and charlie hustled. Keep the stove hot :)
-
Thanks for the update! This doesn't affect the league renewal which is still for January 31st. Six owners still have an outstanding payment to make.
-
Just saw msg from Niv saying keeper deadline has been moved to February 15 11:59pm
-
I updated my On the Block -- anyone who interests you, please let me know and we can discuss options.
-
I should also mention that renewals are due at the end of the month and that date won't change. Niv did mention there could be some changes that make this season look like 2020, if necessary, regarding league execution and expenses. I'll do my best to continue providing updates. Thanks to four of our owners who have already renewed!
-
Niv just posted that he will adjust the keeper deadline by January 24th if there is no sign of a resolution to the lockout.
-
Very late to the party as I have not been looking at anything related to baseball. Welcome Icaro.
-
Late on the draw here, but hello Icaro! Welcome.
-
Thanks Charlie Hustled (+1 for HOF!). It sure looks like a potential dynasty for Burnes, +20,000 pts? That's gotta be close to a record.
-
Welcome Icaro!,,, look forward to competing. This season we are all ganging up on Third Degree Burnes. He has finished 1st twice in 4yrs so itโs very important he doesnโt finish 1st next season, because that would constitute dynasty statusโฆ
I kidding of course. Lol welcome
-
Thanks for having me, this seems like a great league! I'm pretty new to Ottoneu (only played about half a season so far), but I love the format and look forward to competing with and learning from everyone! I might play a little conservative at first but I'm always willing to discuss and listen on an offer.
-
Everyone, please say hello to Icaro, who has agreed to take over the Fringy Tools team.
-
Found someone for the Fringy team. Commish, Iโll send you details
-
No news yet. I'll start aggressively looking in one week. I wanted our returning owners to have time to solicit potential owners.
-
Any news on a new manager for fringy tools?
-
Good morning. Fringy Tools will not be returning next year. I'll open up to the league for recruitment until December 15th. After that, I'll post the opening on the Ottoneu community forum. You'll be missed, Fringy!
-
This morning, I would like to recognize The Just Few for being the first to renew for next season. Thanks for committing to the league! The rest of us have until January 31st.
-
Last call for arbitration. All owners have allocated their funds. Today is your last opportunity to see what the cumulative effect is before it goes final overnight.
-
Two days of arbitration remain. Is this last call? Maybe not, but last weekend!
