If anybody is interested in stashing Strider for next year, I'll consider most offers. Looking for help at MI and SP, and some salary cap relief would be nice.

Hi Guys, It has been a few years since I played. Why does this count as a roster spot? I thought 60-day IL did not. Thanks

Papi is really cutting back. He used to have nearly 200 teams.
-
Wait, Big Papi dropped one of his 100+ teams? lol, welcome to the league Lawrence.
-
In the spirit of competitiveness, I’m gonna tell you about the new owner. He won 5 Otto Championships in a row in another league we were in. He knows how to win. He can also talk a starving monkey off a banana boat. Sell a used car to a blind man. He convinced a guy who had 120 or so Otto teams to give one up for him.
Now he can’t sneak up on ya! 😂
Welcome, Lawrence!
-
Hi Everyone, Thank you for allowing me to join your league. I plan on overhauling the team, so please let me know if you are interested in anyone on the roster.

Hey all, Big Papi stepped away from his team, but we have a new owner stepping in right away. Welcome to the new league owner.
-
In case anyone wonders, I traded Edman for nothing to the other team that bid on him because I no longer needed him after getting Busch. I preferred the roster spot/salary instead.
-
If you have any Dodgers or Padres on your roster, be sure to set your lineups for the start of the Korea series. The game starts early tomorrow morning US time.
-
Excited to get started with the draft in about 20 minutes. See you all soon.
-
Looking forward to seeing everybody on Saturday (or Sunday morning for some of you) for the draft. Be sure to test out the draft software prior to then to make sure everything is working. Excited to get the season underway.
Also, if your team finished in the top six last year, I'd encourage you to consider jumping into the Ottoneu Prestige League. The best-ball format is super fun and it makes the season even more interesting. Spots fill up quickly, so jump in if you're interested.
-
Howdy. If you're interested in taking on another $50 FGPTS team in a real fun active league lookie here. Good league with two options to build on.

Hope everybody enjoys a little downtime as we gear up for spring training getting underway. Folks who are new to the league, feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions about what's coming up. I'll see everybody back here in a month for the draft.
-
A bit under two hour left to make your final cuts. I'll be locking the system promptly at midnight EST, so get those cuts in if you need to.
-
Skenes-Chourio deal has been processed.
-
As the trade window winds down, also want to remind everybody to make their final cuts by tomorrow night by 11:59pm EST. Any players left on your roster will be kept. Also, you'll notice you only have one round of cuts - please make all of your cuts at one time from the cut players screen so I don't have to reset the penalty-free cuts option.
In case you haven't already seen it, the roster organizer is your best friend: https://fantasy.fangraphs.com/ottoneu-using-the-roster-organize
-
Also, everybody indicated they can make the March 9 date for the draft, so that's what we'll do. Draft time has been updated in the system. Thanks for the quick responses.
-
Tucker-Devers deal has been processed.
-
Marsh, Merrill, and Cowser available prior to the deadline

Two reminders, y'all:
1) A bit more than 24 hour remain to finalize any trades you have in the works. Trades must be posted to the message board by 11:59 EST tomorrow.
2) I think I've heard from everybody about availability for the draft, but if not, fill out that form. I'm hoping to cement in the draft date within the next 24 hours.
-
Fairhaven trades OF Kyle Tucker to Crawford for 3B Rafael Devers.
-
The three Saturday trades have been officially approved and processed. Double check your rosters and make sure I didn't mess any of those up (late night trade processing is not recommended 😂).
-
No rest for the weary (commissioner) - time to get our auction draft scheduled. If everybody could fill out the short survey at the link below, I can get our draft time scheduled. Let's get this done by the time the keeper deadline hits on the 8th. Thanks in advance for your efforts to make this admin stuff as painless as possible for me :)

I can confirm this deal.
-
Fairhaven trades SS Trea Turner ($50) and C Yainer Diaz ($6) to Cash Considerations for OF Jorge Soler ($10) and OF Lane Thomas ($6).
-
More trades coming!
-
I veto this trade on the grounds that I wanted to be part of that trade!
P.s. The veto isn't real. But the pain is.

I'm liking the trade action! These trades will stay up for league review for 24 hours, then I'll manually make the moves with my commissioner powers. If anybody has concerns/wants to veto a trade, DM me.
-
[Passan]. Confirming the Betts/Holliday trade. Solid move for both squads. Fan bases are lucky to have such dedicated owners!
-
Trade Announcement:
Fairhaven trades perennial MVP candidate OF/2B/SS Mookie Betts ($63) to California Jackalopes for the expected AL ROY and hopefully perennial MVP candidate SS Jackson Holliday ($6).

Confirming the trade has been accepted

Trade:
Cash Consideration receives Noelvi Marte ($5) and Ryan Mountcastle ($12) from Acuna Matata for William Contreras ($9), Jose Berrios ($4) and Ricky Tiedeman ($3)
-
Hey all, Take a look at my roster. Willing to consider offers for just about anyone! If you’re waiting for me to cut certain players, you’re right, that will probably happen. Their salary will likely go UP at draft time! Grab that player now!
-
Sorry about that!
-
The normal trade mechanism won’t work since it’s after the keeper deadline. See my message below about how to complete trades.
-
It doesn’t look to me like it’s allowing trade offers to be made right now.
-
I can’t update my Trade Block, so….
Lindor, Turner, Eloy could be had. I have RP for sale. Need a catcher? I’m your guy.
-
All cuts must be made by Feb 8. See below about making sure to cut all players at one time to minimize administrative burden for me. I'll also be reaching out to everybody in the next few days to schedule the draft. We'll aim for a weekend in late Feb or March before Opening Day on March 20. Keep an eye out for that and respond to the poll ASAP.
Thanks everybody for your patience and support as we went through some choppy waters. Excited to get back to baseball!
