I’ll be out at year end. Too much stuff going on. You’re welcome to boot me anytime after the season ends.
-
I’ll be here and ready to contend next year. After all, all it takes is one good draft that doesn’t lead to literally 10 players on the IL in opening week with one of my top players playing so poorly he gets booed at home (which I was at!)
-
Thanks for a great few years everyone! Unfortunately planning a move and a wedding will take up too much time to focus on multiple leagues. Best of luck to everyone going forward and hopefully if my schedule clears up in the future I’ll be back :)

I’ll be here, trying to drag my team out of the gutter :)

Quick league update as we wrap up 2023: two-time league champion Jay will be leaving us at the end of the season (for "adult responsibilities" or whatever), but we've already got a new owner lined up so it should be a pretty smooth transition.
You're welcome back anytime, Jay! If anybody else is bouncing after this year, let us know.
-
I hope for Pittsburgh's sake that he actually is worth that much, but that's nearly what I'm paying for three other first overall picks
-
Wowie, I won’t even admit to my puny bid that apparently didn’t stand a chance!
-
I had in the back of my mind that I wasn’t the only Pirates fan in this league. This is for the best though, I didn’t intend to actually pay $20 for Skenes.
-
well then
-
If you’re looking for top-quality starters who won’t throw again until 2024, I’m your guy.
-
I'm looking for some pitching strength, as I look at the league stats and realize that is what is causing my points drops. Come at me with some offers!
-
Do I hear that someone is interested in Royce Lewis’ spontaneously combusting ACL?
-
Congrats to I Must Break You on winning the Henry Davis auction. I felt obligated to bid just because I had the three previous 1st overall picks. I guess I could go after Royce Lewis if I still wanted to grow the trend
-
Logan O'Hoppe available to anyone who is in rebuild mode. Looks like he's going to be really good but I'm all in for this year. I could use a catcher as well with both my guys down.
-
Looking for a SS
hopefully deal from SP OF or 1B depth

I might be in third place but a literal quarter of my team is injured now sunglasses_emoji
-
Weird, thanks! Just spotted this, so looks like Niv is investigating https://community.ottoneu.com/t/lineup-page-giving-an-error-03-31-2023/12947
-
I did get the message while trying to view certain roster pages, including yours. But no problems with my own lineups
-
Anybody else having trouble accessing their lineup this morning? I’m getting a “OH NO! SOMETHING BAD HAS HAPPENED!” page when I try.

Goodluck Jim :D

smh I already lost two major players to season-ending injuries because you didn't wish me luck sooner
-
Happy Opening Day!
-
Opening Day is here! Good luck this season, y’all.
-
One day I'll finish above 6th again. One day....
-
Hey all! This league is OPL eligible. If you finished 6th or above last season you can enter your squad to compete across all of Ottoneu in a super fun best ball format. I entered several teams and there are still some openings. It adds some playoff intensity to the early months of the season. Check out the rules & enter a squad here: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/opl/

Love the new name Junker

See you there!
-
Quick reminder that the draft's tomorrow. Catch y'all at 1 PM ET!
-
Good news again! Someone on the Ottoneu forums moved their draft slot off of the 19th, so we were able to grab their spot.
We're now on for 1 PM ET on Sunday, the 19th; if that time doesn't work for anyone, please let me know ASAP and we'll go back to the second Doodle. Thanks, y'all!
-
Good news/bad news time: we finally got the 19th to work out for everyone... and that is literally the only date that has filled up in the Ottoneu draft calendar.
So I've got one more Doodle with a few more times, based off of what seemed to work best for everyone: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/enRywr5e Please fill this out ASAP, if you can, and fingers crossed we have a draft date set in the next couple days. Thanks, y'all!

-
Sorry is there a link to the doodle?
-
Filled out the doodle poll. If it happens to work on a day that I'm not available that is okay, I'm booked out almost every weekend in March right now.
-
Hey, all! Still need a couple of folks to fill out the Doodle, so add your dates if you haven't yet -- hoping to get that draft time finalized in the next week. Thanks!
-
I'm completely fine with letting Betts back on the roster. But only if Ira's forced to keep AKA Big Papi as the team name
-
If anybody has objections to re-adding Betts, that's absolutely cool and please feel free to speak up, but if there aren't any I'll plan to add him back on his previous salary tomorrow. Thanks!
-
Hi all, thanks for the patience. Last few weeks have been real. I'm back now...name change incoming. Appreciate your help Brice.
I have one question for everyone. While I was gone for like a day, Papi cut Betts. I had no plan on cutting him at all. I would ask that he be added back. If not, no big deal I can move forward. But part of the construction of my team is around him.
Thanks
-
Okay, one final update (for now): Ira's back online and good to go, and Papi was gracious enough to allow him his old team back. Thanks to everyone who's submitted their draft preferences so far!
-
Thanks to Jason for the yeoman's work of taking on Particular -- and welcome to the ubiquitous Papi, Torks' new manager!
With a full roster, I'm going ahead and opening a Doodle to figure out the draft time: https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/dw0wknge Get your preferences in over the next week or so. IIRC, Junker usually can't do evening times before about 8 CT, but if he's free earlier I can move those timeslots up a bit, since I know that's a bit rough for our East Coast fo
-
Hi everybody. I just claimed the terrible Particular Set of Skills team. What was the Particular Set of Skills? It appears it was not hitting or pitching. I will be making a round of cuts soonish after I take a closer look at the roster. With a little luck the team will be respectable and competing soon.
-
Ira has said he's signing back up this weekend, but his team is technically abandoned so it's up for grabs. Particular is definitely the priority, though.
-
Looks like we lost Torks as well?
-
Hey, y'all! I'll start working on a draft time once we get a new owner for Particular, so let me know if you've got someone! They'll get a round of penalty-free cuts, as well, if they'd like.
-
Happy keeper deadline and renewal deadline day!
-
Looking to move Olson for a young stud MI preferably under $13. If you have that, hit me up.

Particular has officially been abandoned. Heard from a couple of folks that they might have a replacement -- if anyone's interested, they should be able to claim it on https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/claimteams.
Also, don't forget to renew your league fees for 2023! I definitely didn't just realize while I was removing Rick that I hadn't paid up for this season yet. No sir. Not me.
-
One more check — anyone have a replacement manager for Rick? If not, I'll drop him and set it as abandoned in a few days.
-
Just heard back from Rick, who will unfortunately be unable to return for 2023. If anybody knows someone looking for a team (or if you're looking to bow out yourself), let us know!
-
I pinged Rick and never heard anything, so I grabbed a filler from Ottoneu Slack to arb for him. Let us know if you're with us for next season, Particular!
-
No arb from Particular Set of Skills - still around or leaving us?
