LOL

Bold move to team up with your “idiot brother” (your words lol) but fine with me! Question: are there certain days he’d manage that we should target for low ball trade proposals?
-
Hello All. Do you guys mind if I add a co-owner? It will be my brother. With my work and being out of cellphone range quite a bit I need some help but I don't have the heart to give up this team.
-
Thanks for all your effort Hawthorne
-
I imported the rosters from CM and manually added voted off players to the teams who won them at the -$5 reduced price. Everything appears to tie to CM, but please review your teams and let me know if you see any issues.
-
OBH - I just gave you four more bids. Unless you want to bid any existing auctions, those teams will be done.
-
Bumped it up to 4 noms per team.
-
Any complaints to moving to four nominations tomorrow to get wrapped up?
-
I put a message on slack. Someone over there should know him
-
Not besides on here, unfortunately. I sent him a DM a bit ago.
-
Anyone know how to get ahold of Bluegrass? He is not participating so far. I would hate to see him get left out
-
Auction is live on Couch Managers! Please go ahead and start making your noms and bids.
-
Good to go
-
Sounds good
-
Sounds like folks who have made changes to their CM drafts since last Sunday have lost that data. We set up our draft before then, but I just cross-referenced our league page roster spots and salaries and everything looks good. I'll do my best to take screenshots every couple hours in case we lose something again, but for now let's plan to start at 5pm PT today. Gives the site a few hours in case something crashes again. Let me know if anyone isn't okay with 5pm PT today.
-
Couch Managers is back up🎉
-
Based on that link I sent earlier, Niv said there may be an update tomorrow.
-
Same, can't do a live draft.
-
I’m open to increasing noms if necessary. I can’t do a live draft. Got 3 boys playing baseball and zero time in the evenings. Craziness.
-
Ok cool

Well it’s still down. Will keep you guys posted if it comes back up over the weekend and we’ll get started.
-
lol BOP. We’ll see what happens today and this weekend. If we do need to increase noms my preference is to that towards the deadline and not from the start, but happy to hear from others.
-
I prefer as many noms as possible🙈
-
Pretty sure we started with 2 the last few years then moved to 3 so we could still delay and be fine.

So, if we have to delay the start of the draft. We could still get it done in time if we increased the number of nominations maybe to say, 4 or 5? If they are not up sometime next week we may have to have a regular draft. I could probably fit in a regular draft any time in the evening, as I have no life.
-
I have not been able to log on all afternoon
-
So we're scheduled to start our auction tomorrow at 1p PT on Couch Managers. However, Couch Managers seems to be having some downtime issues recently. Hopefully it's sorted by the time we start, but curious if anyone is in other leagues that also use Couch Managers and what your leagues have done to address it. I'm thinking of extending the "extension" time to 6 or even 8 hours to hopefully mitigate any future downtime issues.

Outstanding.

Sounds good, thanks for your work Rangers.

How about 1pm PT? Like prior years, initial auctions are 12 hour clocks with extensions to 4 hours if a new high bid occurs with under 4 hours on the clock. 3 noms per team at a time. If you are a team with very few players, please ensure you are nominating promptly. All clocks pause from 10pm-8am PT. This will allow each time zone to at least check all auctions before bed or when they wake without losing out on a player. You may still bid during the pause.
-
At what time do we imagine we will be starting the draft on Friday?
-
I also forgot to add a "UTIL" position on CM. Just know one of your BN spots is a UTIL spot. It won't let me change it now.
-
Auction created: https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?auction_id=1092
Please join when you can and rename your team to your Ottoneu team name and I'll import the keepers. Season starts 3/18 (stupid MLB) and the auction took us 8-9 days last year, so let's start on Friday 3/7, wrap it up in a week and allow a period for 48 hour initial auctions before the season starts.
-
Sorry been stressed with work but he sent them to me a few days ago. Just need to process them. He’s keeping:
Freeman, Schwarber, Edman, Profar, Suzuki, Nimmo, Wheeler, Ray, Eflin, Senga. Rest cut.
-
When are these cuts happening?
-
I know deep down you thank me too
-
My brothers wife thanks you
-
Welcome Kyle to the league. He's taking over for IRB, who was unfortunately unresponsive to my attempts to reach her and Ottoneu automatically abandoned her team. I've given Kyle until Sunday to give me his cuts. Let me know if anyone has any issues with giving him a one-time chance at cuts this week only.
-
Thanks, BOP. I think we found another manager. He's been in a league with me, Gar-Ber and Capitalists for several years now. Will try to get him joined soon and will give him one day of cuts.
-
My idiot brother may be interested if you guys could tolerate it. I am still not sure if I can, but that is another issue.
-
We'll give IRB some more time to respond (I DM'd here and emailed), but might be wise of us to also start looking for a replacement owner just in case. Does anyone have someone in mind who might like to join the league?
-
Reminder that the keeper deadline is tomorrow night at 11:59pm ET.
Separately, I haven’t been able to get in touch with IRB. Does anyone know her? I’m a little worried for her based on her previous comments about her health.
-
I have a lot of keeper worthy OFs. Looking to add a quality SP if anyone is interested in some last minute discussions before the keeper deadline.
-
Let's go!
-
Lol.

I just re-upped one more year for the sole purpose of torturing every one of you.
-
Teams not putting in the starting pitchers but still are active with free agency/trades is frustrating. Tough to manage participation in something that should be fun. Not sure in the settings if you could open the sps spots to have all 7 available at the beginning of the week? That still has it glitches but at least gives a less active owner an easier way to manage their pitching

I am not that concerned over an injured catcher on the IL for 2 weeks and a team plays short if the options on the waivers are negative contributors. I get the rule but as long as you have an mlb catcher holding a roster spot i am alright with the roster construction. That changes if the only major league player for that position is on the 60 day Il. The team should then correct the issue with the extra roster spot the team recieves for the 60 day il player.

Rule 1a: Each team should maintain at all times a roster of 22 major-league players that can fill out a starting lineup. The remaining 18 roster spots can be used for reserves, consisting of both major and minor leaguers.
