Commish - at what point do we talk about replacing the teams that didn't participate in arbitration and haven't been active since Oct/Nov? Just curious about how this will shake out with the impending cut deadline. Thanks!

I'm putting Trout on the block, if anyone is interested in trading for the best player in the world message me and we can work out a deal.
-
Yeah, we've been chasing answers all season for some of that. I guess the non-penalized cuts before the keeper deadline is the tradeoff for not being able to go over during the draft.
-
Thanks, Monroe. That’s what I thought, but I was confused about being able to go over the salary cap and then cut players to get back under the cap, like we can do during the season.

Nope! And beyond that you always have to have at least one dollar available for each open roster spot remaining.
-
Are teams allowed to go over the $400 cap during the auction? I can’t remember.

I've only done one Ottoneu off-season before but my strategy was to look at projections, do some valuations based on them and see what players I owned whose salary was way over their projected value and cut the ones I believed were projected about right.
-
Yup. We're all going to be cutting players once we get closer to the deadline. Until then its open season on trades.
-
So, since I (and most of us) are currently over the cap, I'll need to cut/trade players to get below the cap before the keeper deadline, right? It doesn't seem like many of us have cap space available to facilitate trades that would get the rest of us below the cap, so it seems that we will all be mostly cutting players to get under the cap, right?. I'm trying to figure out what the strategy here is, and make sure I understand things clearly. Thanks, y'all.

Well, I stand corrected! I'm not sure about that. I guess there should be a commissioner intervention to force an owner to cut someone?
-
Nevermind, I just re-read the rules and saw this: "After the keeper deadline and before the auction draft, teams may not cut or trade any players." I also see this in the rules, "...therefore following the keeper deadline, a team salary must never exceed $360 + the number of players on the roster." What will happen if a team exceeds the ($360 + number of players) between the keeper deadline and the auction draft?

That is correct. Got to make sure we all cut before midnight on Jan 31st.
-
Hi, all, I hope everyone is well. Question, if we cut someone after the keeper deadline, we will take the half-salary cap penalty, is that correct?

This is my first off-season (so fair warning), but my understanding is that if you decide not to keep a player you get full salary relief for that player.
-
So, if we cut a player during the off-season, do we get that player’s full salary back? It isn’t clear to me from reading the game rules.

So for us American based owners, go vote tomorrow at your local polling place, and then vote off your fellow owners’ players!
-
Just wanted to send a friendly reminder that arbitration ends on November 14th.
-
Makes sense, thanks!

I believe the player shows up as restricted on your roster and can't be cut or traded. Then during the auction they can be nominated by anyone, and if you win the auction you get them at $5 less than you bid.
-
How does the RFA process work? I assume it happens on draft night, but I don't quite get the timing. Does the prior owner just get the option to keep the player as soon as the bidding concludes?
-
@Lawn Mauer Thanks, I knew that was going to happen, but I didn’t realize it is during the arbitration period. Makes sense, thanks again.

@Bases Loaded. We vote on a player on each team to become a free agent. The player on each team with the most votes becomes a restricted free agent that any team can bid on in next year's auction
-
Hi everyone. What is the purpose of the arbitration period? What can we do during arbitration that we can’t do today? Thanks.

Just to thank everyone for participating (though a couple did see to fall off towards the end) and to Steve and Chin Music for organising. I like the format and looking forward to next season.

Well done everyone, but especially Lawn - a great first season for our league!

Congratulations Lawn Mauer! Good fight from Monroe too, an impressive gap to the rest. I'll be back to put up more of a fight in 2019.
