Awesome. Welcome aboard!
-
Hey All - New Owner here. Longtime fantasy owner (usually Fantrax money leagues) that used to play Otteneu back in the day. I was looking for an established league to join and this looked promising. I'll be around for the long haul and very active. This is a rebuilding situation so I'll be wheeling and dealing right away. I'll probably keep Trout and then loan someone some cap room and trade him for prospects later. Should be fun
-
Still trying to find owners to fill the two spots. Please email me if you have anyone in mind!
-
Hey everyone, since the new CBA has been agreed upon it looks like the start of the season will be Apr. 7. With that in mind, I set the draft for the Sunday before. Hopefully, this will give everyone a good idea where the remaining free agents will land and who will/won't start the season healthy. Please let me know if you cannot attend at that time and I'll do my best to accommodate.
As of right now, we have only 2 teams with open ownership so if you know anyone interested, forward
-
Yeah I'm gonna assume Ottoneu will handle this like they did in 2020 and move the season start date every couple weeks as games get canceled. I usually like to stage the draft 1-2 weeks before so I'm probably gonna be moving that around a bit. So keep an eye out.
-
Since the season is in jeopardy of starting anything on time, should we change the season start date?
-
Hey, everyone. Please try to extend your team today if you are planning on returning. If you don't the team is susceptible to being taken by someone else. If you don't want to play this year, let me know so I can try to find a replacement.
Also, the keeper deadline is in 2 weeks so please make your cuts.
-
REMINDER: Please extend your teams by the Jan. 31 deadline and make all the cuts you'd like by the same date. Let me know if you aren't planning on returning so I can get started on a replacement. Thanks!
-
Reminder to everyone to make their Arb Voting choices by this Sunday!
-
Hey Everyone, Just wanted to thank you all for playing this year (even though my team sucked despite good rate stats lol). Remember to check the offseason schedule to meet all the deadlines. Hope everyone can return next year!
-
Damn, fellas. My season may be over before it began! Four days since the draft and I've lost Yates and Eloy for the year, Springer and Pearson banged up, Stras not far behind, and Adell, Kiriloff and Varsho sent down. With all these bench prospects, that doesn't leave me enough guys to field a team. Send me a message if you want to talk trade for an elite prospect or two. The only one off the table are probably Wander. I won't be giving these guys away, but I'm willing to deal.
-
Hey everyone, I ended the draft so you're free to make any cuts/pickups you want. Thanks for attending!
-
REMINDER: The auction draft is set for this Sunday at 6 eastern. Message me if you can't make it and I can try to accomodate.
-
Awesome!
-
I expect them back, seems like they are just procrastinating. Reached out and both intend to join.
-
Not sure if you know if they're coming back or not, but it looks like Shinjo and Uncle Tom don't have managers either
-
If anyone knows someone looking to join, let me know. Looks like the TakingHochevar team is our only opening right now.
-
Sounds good. Thanks for setting this up!
-
Everyone, I tentatively set the Sunday before the season starts as draft day. Since there still isn't much clarity on the MLB schedule yet, I might have to move it around like last time. Just a heads up
-
Please remember to re-up your team for this season and make sure to make any roster cuts before the deadline on 1/31
-
Yes, thanks for the reminder! I almost forgot myself
-
Don't forget to get arbitration voting done this week...
-
Thanks for playing everyone! Hopefully we get a normal season next year.
-
Ahhh I saw that message but I didn't know it applied to Cronenworth (I forgot he had dual eligibility). Thanks
-
Cronenworth has eligibility as both a pitcher and position player - there are extra steps to get those players in the lineup: https://community.ottoneu.com/t/two-way-players-on-the-lineup-page-shohei-ohtani/3427
-
For some reason I can't start Jake Cronenworth? I got him via auction on August 26th but I can't put him in my lineup anywhere. Am I missing some rule where you can't start a guy until X days after winning him? Everyone else on my bench can be moved into my lineup
-
Perez will have to start 5 games at C to get eligibility--looks like no changes to that rule this year.
-
Question - Player Eligibility - Salvador Perez still listed as Utility when he's been catching, when can he be reinstated to being a catcher as well as utility?
-
Thanks!
-
Just went in and ended it. Had to leave it on last night after I left as others were still drafting
-
Is the league still drafting? I can't players still.
-
REMINDER: Draft today at 7pm. I already see most but remainder please log on!
-
The time you have it scheduled now (Sunday July 19, 7PM Eastern) works out best for me.
-
Yeah I'm much more for making it closer to the season, so we know if anyone is going to opt out or not due to being high risk
-
Ryan and I discussed and are tentatively putting the draft on July 19 to get it as close to the season as possible. Everyone, please message feedback/preferences.
-
Works for me! I do remember the draft usually needs a second night to finish so Iβm also down to make it a marathon session on a weekend day if people want

Its probably not gonna work for me and I wanted to move it closer to the season anyway so we all have the best info on the status of who we're drafting. With most of our plans/activities disrupted after work anyway, I was thinking we could even do a week day draft. All options are open though so please try to give me an idea of availability. Looking forward to actually having something to do/watch!
-
Hey everybody! Hope youβre all safe, glad we got some baseball back. Just noticing that the draft is scheduled for this Sunday which works for me but does that work for everybody else?

Awesome, thanks for the update
-
According to the "Coronavirus Updates" link at the top of the page, we can move the draft to any time before the season starts. I've moved it two weeks out for now but may have to move it again if the season keeps getting pushed and we collectively want to draft as close to the season start as possible.
-
I talked to Ryan (our other commissioner) the other day, I'm going to move it if possible. It's not great to be bidding on players that are currently injured and may be healthy by start of season.
-
So, any final word on what to do with the draft?
-
I don't really have an opinion myself, though I agree it might be a good quiet period to get it done.
Just FYI, the innings/games limit will be adjusted to account for the shortened season.
-
I don't have a strong opinion on this. Delaying it does make sense, though if we end up on lockdown we might actually have some free time to get it out of the way...
-
I think we should delay it, yeah
-
Since we won't have a season for a while, should we postpone the draft? Never know what this thing will look like once everybody's back and ready.

Sorry 3/22...the Sunday before opening day.
-
Temporarily set the draft for 3/21 at 7pm EST. Please let me know if this doesn't work.
-
REMINDER: Please pay your fee to Ottoneu by your team's deadline otherwise your team can be claimed by other owners. Also please make sure all player cuts are done before 1/31!

Stop taking my beautiful son Acuna away from me!!
