League Message Board

I'm a bit late, but thanks to everyone for getting in their arbitration bids. At this point, you are free to make trades for the next month and a half. The next big mile marker is the keeper deadline, which is January 31. I'll follow up as that approaches to remind you. Thanks and enjoy your holidays!
-
Hey, all. Arbitration is open, and so you have a month to click on the Arbitration link on the main nav bar and allocate $25 among all the teams. Let me know if anyone is unsure about the process. Thanks!
-
Congratulations to Jake of team What's in a Name for both winning the league this year and scoring the most points of any team in the last 5 seasons. I hope everyone enjoyed the season, and I'll circle back in a few weeks to let you know when arbitration starts.
-
Reminder to everyone to set your lineups. By default, drafted players land on your bench, and the real baseball starts tomorrow!
-
Reminder: the LOON auction draft is tonight at 8:00pm ET! I'll start it up once everyone is online, so jump in the draft room a bit early if possible. Thanks!

Please mark your calendars: this year's auction draft will be Monday, February 26 at 8:00pm ET. Expect it to take 3 hours, although your draft may be shorter if you have more keepers or want to leave more open roster spots. Thanks!

Hey, all. We are missing a few scheduler submissions, but we currently have one date that is working for everyone: Monday, February 26 at 8:00pm ET. Please let me know ASAP if that won't work for you. Otherwise, I'll lock that in as our draft time. Thanks!
-
Reminder to everyone to please fill out the auction draft scheduler as soon as possible. The early returns are pointing to a potential February draft, so it would help to have that decided quickly. https://whenisgood.net/pdqbdci
-
Thanks to everyone for getting all of their cuts made by the deadline. Next on the docket: we need to schedule our auction for this season. Please fill out the scheduler at this link so we can find a time that works for everyone. I think it'll take 3 hours for the longest drafters among us: https://whenisgood.net/pdqbdci

Hello league... I am new to the format and just now realized there was a far more efficient way to make my cuts. Apologies for the inbox clutter, and looking forward to the league!
-
Reminder to everyone that the keeper deadline is next Wednesday, January 31 at 11:59pm ET. Be sure to get your teams under the $400 budget with room to at least fill your roster to 40 with $1 players. Let me know if you have questions or want to trade before then. I updated my block with Aaron Nola and some others. Thanks!
-
Hey all, happy to be on board! My team is significantly over budget so I need to shed some salary, I'm open for just about anything as far as trade, including Xander, Alonso, deGrom, and Soto
-
And also please welcome Adam Strangis to the league. Adam is a DFS writer at FTN, and he will be taking over The Flu-Like Symptoms from Kyle Murray.
-
Hey, all. Please welcome Jake Kucheck to the league. Jake is a baseball writer at FTN Fantasy, and he will be taking over Sense of Humidor from Todd Zola. Hit him up with your trade ideas before the January 31 keeper deadline!
-
Thanks everybody for getting in their arbitration bids. Two things. First, you now have until January 31 to trade players and make your keeper decisions (cut players). Second, we need two new fantasy players to take over for Todd Zola (Sense of Humidor) and Kyle Murray (Flu-Like Symptoms). Please let me know if you know anyone who might be interested. Thanks!

I hope everyone enjoyed the season. We are a few weeks away from the start of arbitration, and I'll send a message to let you know when that's ready. Thanks!
-
Congrats to Tom Truong of team Zack Attack for his 2nd consecutive LOON title! We will all need to step our games up in 2024 to prevent the dynasty.

Does this help? https://community.ottoneu.com/t/change-to-two-way-players-starting-in-the-2023-season/11897
-
I know there was a note on the site about an extra step for two-way players. Maybe you have to move Ohtani from your pitching bench to your hitting bench first ...
-
Am I a moron? I can't seem to move Shohei from my pitching bench to my UT spot. I know they changed the rule on him here. Does that mean if I put him in as a P he collects offensive stats? I'm clueless! Thanks!

Reminder to everyone to set your lineups before Thursday. They don't automatically set post-auction.
-
Thanks everyone for a smooth draft! I set the draft as over, so you are free to nominate waiver players, trade, etc. I'll send a lineup reminder closer to the start of the season. Good luck this year!

Ok, we have a draft time that works for everyone. It's going to be on Monday, February 20 at 8:00pm ET. Please mark your calendars, and let me know if that won't work for some reason. Otherwise, I'll talk to everyone in a couple of weeks!

Is anyone interested in Bryce Harper or any other players from my roster? Need to cut some salary
-
Is anyone interested in trading for Nolan Arenado and/or Clayton Kershaw? I think they are decently priced, and I need to shed some more salary. Thanks, Scott.

Greetings one and all! Thanks to Scott for the invite! I'd like to add to Scott's lovely intro. Not only am I a creator at FTN, but I also have my own fantasy baseball show known as the Pallazzo Podcast in tribute to that singular classic movie line from The Naked Gun. It's been a long time since I played in the Ottoneu sandbox, but I am excited to get back into this arena. Hit me up here or through text if you have any transactional ideas! 734-489-3224

Govier?!? Niiiice. Welcome, good sir. And welcome, Kyle as well. Looking forward to having you both in the league.
-
Hey, all. Please welcome Michael Govier to the league. Like Kyle Murray, Michael is a writer at FTN Fantasy, and he will be taking over Soppe's Squad. Hit him up with your trade ideas before the January 31 keeper deadline!

Also I am still looking for someone to take over Soppe's Squad. I can make the keeper decisions for the team if I need to, but we'll want a new manager before the auction, so let me know if you have someone you think wants to play. Thanks! Scott
-
Hey, everyone. Welcome Kyle Murray, who is taking over Bret Sayre's former Flu-Like Symptoms team. Kyle is a DFS writer for FTN Fantasy, which is where I write these days. Feel free to send him some trade offers if you've been eyeing his roster while we wind down to the keeper deadline on January 31.
-
Hey, all. It looks like we'll need a 2nd new player to replace Brett's Flu-Like Symptoms team. Again, let me know if you have any candidates. Thanks.

Congrats to Tom Truong of team Zack Attack for completely crushing all of us this year!
-
Well if McNeil’s paternity leave counts as something, I guess I’m at 11.5 on the IL now to join you. Thank god for 40 man rosters.
-
Hahaha
-
Well played Justin Turner, well played.
-
I'm way down at just 7 IL guys.
-
I seem to have 11 guys on the IL today ... just for fun, can anyone beat that?
-
Thanks to everyone for a painless draft. You can now put free agent players up for auction, too. And remember to set your lineups - Ottoneu doesn't do that automatically after a draft.
-
Thanks!
Keston Hiura ($18)
Rafael Montero ($10)
Mike Foltynewicz ($10)
Kyle Gibson ($10)
Alex Colome ($9)
Joe Jimenez ($9)
Yusmeiro Petit ($7)

Hey, Kyle. Sorry, I thought I had checked everyone at the cut deadline - we must have both been tricked by the fact you did cut players but just didn't get under the budget max. My thought is just get me a list of a few players you want to cut and I'll commissioner-cut them between now at 8pm. But if anyone has an objection to that, let me know. Even with the cuts, you won't have much auction flexibility, so I see that as as much a penalty as anyone deserves for that mistake.
