Good draft everyone, luckily the technical problems did not last incredibly long and we got through things pretty quickly. Auctions are open. Good luck to everyone this season!
-
Good draft, Everyone.
Don't forget to set your lineups for the early Dodgers-Cubs series.

I am currently locked out of the draft
-
If you think you will be late or potentially going to miss a portion of the draft, please let me know.
-
allowing the first team to nominate a player.
-
Draft tonight at 8 pm esatern! Just throwing this out there that we do not typically punish people for not nominating, but please be prepared to nominate as it does make the draft go quicker and smoother than having to wait the full amount of time and move onto the next one. My goal is to be in the draft room by 7:40, I will start reaching out to whoever is not there at about 5 of 8 to make sure you are coming. If everyone is not there at 8, I will delay the draft up to 8:05 before (con't)
-
One week until the draft!
-
8p works for me

Anyone have an issue with starting at 8pm EST?
-
I might be a little late...8pm EST works best for me but totally understand if people dont want to start that late
-
I believe March 16th worked for everyone. I have it set for 7 pm eastern, does that time not work for anyone? I believe the consensus was the later in the day/night, the better.
-
Are we locked in on the draft date/time? I'm good anytime that day/night, I just want to get it on my calendar.

Just a reminder that if you have any players you want to cut free of charge...let me know by midnight tonight. After today, rosters will be locked until draft day.
-

We have done this in the past and I am not a big fan of the January 31st cut date (but we can't change it)...so I will allow cuts until February 7th, for EVERYONE. You will need to message me who you want to cut and I will have to process it manually.
-
Crap - can we open up the option to cut for another 24 hrs. Haven’t been checking this stuff and didn’t realized I’d missed it
-
Lol, that sounds like a real GM....and the players would say its the coach's fault

When you were as bad as we were last year, you gotta change something. Had a real problem in the clubhouse last year, trying to get rid of the problem children. Haha

Wow, Gorillas - you really cleaned house!

Three teams left to extend their ownership for next season as well (I am one unfortunately). So I recommend the other two teams close on that before the deadline tomorrow. I do have everyone's e-mail copied down, so I can hold the spot since the league is listed as private.
-
Only 34 hours left until the keeper deadline!

Good catch Jay, for some reason I thought Ottoneu would allow you to backdate stats based on who you drafted (you know like most other sites), but I get it. So would everyone be able to do a draft the evening of the 16th?
-
Most teams start on March 27th, so the 30th will miss 4 days of the season (plus the 2 CHC/LAD Tokyo games).
I am good with the 16th, anytime.

30th works for me. (16th would work too)
-
March 30th works for me! preferably late afternoon or early evening start, central standard time - i think i'll be traveling in the morning.

i prefer the 30th
-
Okay, so let me throw out three dates to try and finalize this. Out of the 15th, 16th, and 30th...which is your preferred date? My preference would be the 30th. (Also ignore the draft date currently established for the league, I will change it when we figure out the best time for everyone).
-
For me, I cannot on the 8th and 9th of march. Sooner we can settle this, the better.

I have flexibility and will try to make whatever draft time work. In general, Saturdays are difficult, unless the draft is late in the day. I am on Pacific time, so even a bit later than many of you. Late in the day is generally better for me on weekdays or weekends. Sunday afternoon/evenings work well. Thanks for scheduling early!
-
My only draft obstacle is that I have a mid-afternoon commitment on March 9th. The weekends of the 1st/2nd, 15/16th, and 29/30th are the best for me - but I can make the others work as well.

If anyone is interested in trying a Fangraph Points league with 10-player MiLB rosters for prospects, there is a spot open in League 1010. You can check out the team here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1010/team/7192. You can claim the team on the Available Teams page, or let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
-
No draft day as of yet. I typically try to wait until I can confirm everyone is coming back before having the discussion, but I am open to have it now. I prefer as close to the start of the season as possible. As of right now, the only time that is booked for me is 3/29 from 10 am to 4 est. The preference for me would be to have the draft around 7 or 8 est, but I should be able to make any time work if it works for the majority of the league.
-
Do we have a draft day, march is getting filled quickly with other drafts.

Good job all with getting arbitration done in time. Have a great rest of the off-season, we will start talking about draft dates around cut down day.
-
Arbitration is ending in just a few days. Be sure to distribute your funds before Thursday!

Congrats Residue on the championship! And congrats to Krusty and Jay for their 2nd and 3rd place finishes respectively. Just be aware that arbitration starts in two weeks. I will send out a note when it starts. If you know that you will not be running next year, please let me know as soon as possible, so we can find a replacement. Happy off season all!
-
Thanks, guys. And well played Krusty and Jay! Great season everyone.
