Happy Opening Day! As a pretty neutral fan, it's pretty great that this started with a Mike Trout HR.
-
Happy Opening Day!! How does MLB not have any game on national TV??!!
-
Happy opening day, everyone!!
-
Draft is complete, we are now in in-season mode where trades/adds/cuts can be made.. Korea games start in 2 weeks!
-
draft is tonight!!! we've got 146 open roster spots, which is slightly lower than previous years, but please plan for 2+ hours for drafting starting @ 9 ET.
-
Reminder on our upcoming draft! Wednesday night at 9 pm Eastern, see everyone soon!
-
Sounds good!! So good to finally see baseball again
-
Confirming our live draft is set to 3/6 @ 9PM!
-
Shoot, meant to say “won’t work for me”
-
3/5 won’t work. I’ll be picking my wife up at the airport and then driving home. 3/6 I’m good.
-
Live Draft best options would be Tuesday, 3/5, or Wednesday, 3/6, at 9 ET based on poll. If we can’t get those times to work, I’ll look towards the following week (same days of week/time). Or slow draft. Can anyone who has concerns on 3/5 or 3/6 at 9 pm please let me know by this Sunday? Chatting me is fine, traveling now so unable to do a poll but I think we can knock this out. If weeknights 9pm doesn’t work for anyone also let me know, hopefully I read polls right. Thanks for the flexibility!!
-
reminder on draft poll due tomorrow, link in previous message + e-mail earlier this week. feeling optimistic we'll get on a live draft this year from the initial results!
-
E-mail sent with draft poll! Link is here: https://forms.gle/W2vW5aSbMBP5VwcF8

Thanks y'all, no need to confirm payment status here for anyone who hasnt replied so far, i'm able to keep track.. less than a week til the trade deadline! nice to see activity pick up, and don't forget your cuts too!
-
I still owe; I'll get that done in the next couple days at the latest. Just posting so it's public acknowledgement that I still plan on cruising mid-tier again this year lol

I'm paid up now.
-
Also I think I’d like to get us back on the live draft but easier said than done and I know our schedules conflict a bunch but I’ll send the usual poll soon
-
Everyone we are less than two weeks until the keeper deadline but also less than two weeks to the renewal deadline! Please don't forget to renew through the site by 1/31, i'm expecting everyone back based on what i've heard, but renewals appear low right now, so if anything has changed on returning for any managers please let me know.
-
Coupons fully applied, thanks 🎉
-
Happy offseason everyone!! I noticed a few teams update their block recently, would be great if everyone could make an update soon-ish, even if just a message saying you're evaluating and will update more robustly at a later date. In looking forward to taking trade with y'all!
-
Hey all, sorry, I'm alive. Arb really snuck up on me this year. Replied to you in DM as well, MG.
-
I've applied coupons for JJ, trading is open for the offseason! Remember to cut down to $450 before engaging in trade talks, and ATOMO i'm still pending confirmation from, but otherwise we're off and running!
-
I have applied arbitration coupons for every team besides 'Didn't use my JJ' and 'A Team of My Own'. Once JJ Bleday submits their $7 of coupons, i'll make those adjustments, and trading will be open... 'A Team of My Own' has not logged in still, I have reached out to see if they still want to continue in the league, and have asked them to reply in the next 1-2 weeks if possible, but may need to consider a replacement. I'm not going to let that hold up trading for everyone else though.
-
Thanks commish
-
While i'm posting about it, reminder on our offseason rule prior to any trading: **Prior to offseason trading in the trading period, teams must reduce their salary to $450 or less, and their roster to 40 or less.** I never confirmed this in message board, but changing this rule did not get majority (7) votes, so it remains for this offseason.
-
Quick note - as Manassas Woodpeckers tied for 7th w/ Greene Monster Hunter, I am granting them an additional arb coupon to be $5 total, both Woodpeckers and Greene will have $5 coupons, no other changes. Thanks!
-
Arbitration Coupons Link is live. Please fill out by EOD 11/18, and reminder no trading until coupons are done, thanks! https://forms.gle/RDMVz1HHH4kFfuHS7
-
11/12 have completed, thanks all! going to find a proxy for ATOMO, who hasn't logged in since October
-
Reminder all that today is the last day to submit/edit your arbitration allocations. 4 teams haven’t completed arb yet, and 2 haven’t logged in at all in November. I’ll keep an eye on activity tonight and find a proxy or two if we need to complete arbitration, but best way to show you’re active and planning to do arb tonight is to allocate (even if it’s a few bucks to start). I’ll send the Google form link for coupons and say you have til EOD Saturday to do that, and then trading is open! Thanks
-
Further specification may still be needed. One Cleveland Jose is up for waivers and one Cleveland Jose is up for auction 🤣🤣
-
And I’ll specify, the Jose Ramirez on CLE 😂
-
any questions / discussion points on this please let me know 👍
-
There is some sizzle in the Waivers / Free Agent auction pool right now, so would just like to communicate proactively: generally this league has done a good job of getting to a legal roster by season's end. While I don't believe we have a rule in place for this, I would expect teams to hold true to a legal roster as best as possible when the Ottoneu season ends on Monday. In short w/ an example, - if you choose to claim $56 JRam, please have a plan to have a legal roster before season's end
-
I appreciate the kind remarks! It has been a season to remember here, and, after placing last and/or 2nd to last in my other two leagues, the bright spot of my fantasy baseball year lol. I'm very thankful to not relive the 2022 sprint to the finish line with Carp this year, but good luck to everyone jockeying for standings positions these last few days!
-
+1 to that. What a dominant season...

Congrats to Miami who did what I couldn't last season, go wire to wire for the championship. Impressive season, congrats on back-to-back 🏆
-
2 trades in one day, let the trading season begin!!
-
Thanks, Carp. Seams and I talked, it was user error based off looking at the roster organizer to calculate adds and cuts which doesn’t consider cap penalties. I have reset the Morel and Dodd cuts for Seams to have another go at this, thanks
-
Hey Seams, looks like you have 2 open roster spots but no cap space left. You need $1 cap space for each open roster spot, that's why your team is illegal right now. You would need to cut someone with a minimum salary of $6 to get legal, that would leave you 3 open spots and $3 cap.
-
Sorry folks, I have no idea what is happening with my team status. I have reached out to Miami for a solution.
-
Appreciate you putting that poll together and all the discussion around these topics. Just goes to show again how great this league is.
-
Folks! It's been a few weeks, hope the season's treating you all well. I totally forgot to report results on our poll. We have 4 votes to consider changing the offseason trading rule, 3 to keep the rule as-is. I think because we have not had a majority (7 teams) vote that the rule should be changed, i'm inclined to keep the rule as-is for this upcoming offseason. same with arbitration, no clear winner there for a rules change. Link remains below for a last second entry but status quo is winning
-
Happy opening day!

Happy opening day everyone, good luck this year 🎉

Quick offseason poll: https://forms.gle/eDC6oARTU7hRVnqA7 Included is a rules change vote on this upcoming offseason, as well as an optional poll on arb coupons. I took current option vs. WR's proposal, vs. what i see is a blend that reduces total coupons, but pays out coupons thru 11th place. Poll will remain open through this week, and I'll take a look on monday. If there's an option i'm not properly presenting on the poll please let me know, but hopefully i covered it all. thanks!
-
Sorry y’all been on vacation so haven’t really checked in to Ottoneu much the past week.. I’ll get a poll sent out next week so we have clarity for this season on upcoming offseason rules 👍
-
I like the overall thought processes involved with a wacky in-house rule like this; the only thought I'll throw into the conversation pool is a pondering of how that will effect trades from that 12/51 deadline to the 1/31 one. Approximately 6 weeks, likely when there's a lot of offseason news, but everyone will be limited on the number of remaining cuts they'd have. No idea how that actually plays out, but food for thought for this last week til Opening Day!!
Definitely merits real
-
I'd think that teams could only safely "plan" 2-3 cuts and would need to save the others for injuries/role changes.
The only reason I didn't suggest, say, 7 cuts is that it's a much weirder number to remember.
-
My initial reaction is this is a great comprise. Deadlines spur action and incorporating another deadline could/should increase trade activity since that is the goal. My only thought on the number of cuts is with lower priced guys (~<$10). If a player gets injured or traded post Dec 15 and was not part of my planned 5 cuts I don't want to be stuck. An alternate could be max of 2 or 3 cuts of guys costing >$25? $30? $35?
I think there's something here and would love fe
