From the rules..
In two-week playoff games, the GS cap will reset at the end of the first week and before the second week begins on the second Monday in the matchup

Seems to be that it restarts after the end of the week.

I have the same question about SP as Sandlot Sharks - do we get 9 more next Monday, or is the 9 SP spread between this week and next?
-
Looking for clarification on the number of SPs in the final games since they span 2 weeks. Do we get another 9 SPs starting next Monday, or is it 9 combined for weeks 24 & 25?

Some damn entertaining SF games - at one point on Sunday, the battle between us and the Sharks was within 0.5 points and the other matchup between the league leaders all season was within 3 points.

Not sure if any of you do fantasy hockey, but I have a deep roto style auction league starting up on Yahoo (I wish Ottoneu would do hockey). Let me know if interested and I'll send you the link.

It really is a crazy-making game sometimes! I made some poor pitching choices and then my usually solid pitchers had some truly horrendous games. And my batters were all sluggish out of the break. /shrug But that’s the fun of fantasy baseball - never know what’s going to happen each week. Love it!
-
What a silly game sometimes - our winless, last-place rebuilding team just beat our 1st place team by 5 points over a 10-day game week. Weird stuff.

Daulton Varsho on the block, looking for SP help

I am all in on the OPL league this year and am going to qualify for the final 32. This means, I am willing to trade anyone with more future value to add present day value. No one is off limits. Any deal I make for OPL needs to be accepted by (around) the start of the All Star Game. If there is anyone you are interested in, let me know!

Awesome. I show that now too. Must've updated right after I wrote. Thanks :)
-
When I look now it shows you have 6 remaining starts for this week.
-
Quick Question - New to Ottoneu this year. Lucchesi was supposed to start today and the game got postponed. It counted as one of my 9 GS for the week. Will that reset tomorrow so it doesn't count. Went from 9 to 5 today, but only 3 pitchers. Will it be 6 again remaining tomorrow?
Thanks in advance.

Chauncey's is correct, I am not able to reverse the $20 loan. Can you guys (Chauncey, Eyes Wide Open) please accept a trade with a $20 loan. All trades have to have a player involved so please include at least one player and then once it processes I will restore the player involved back to his original team. Thanks guys!

Hey all, I just took over this team. And, uh, wow, not sure what to say about the league right now. First time in a head to head league also so I'm going to take a few days, get my bearings and then go from there.

I have taken over Golden Sombrero. I have played fantasy baseball for many years. This will be my first H2H league looking forward to a new challenge.

In the interest of full disclosure - Smell my Finger's $20 loan to me should be removed, as well.

Welcome aboard to the GF Chaunceys.
Since the Cole trade received 7 vetoes (6 plus the 'approve' vote done in error) that trade will be reversed.
The Machado trade received 5 vetoes so will stand.
GF Chauncey has asked that they get their round of penalty free cuts back since they were not aware that the Cole trade would be reversed so we're going to allow that.

I mean, I guess if only a few thousand people read ESPN, MLB.com, The Athletic, mlbtraderumors and the Washington Post. I could go on but I'm pretty sure those sites count as 'widely reported.'

And widely reported my ass. It was not even on this site he was even injured. I bet only a few thousand people knew he was that hurt outside of the Nationals organization and his family.

Trades should be reversed ONLY if collusion is thought. Not because others are butt hurt they did not have the players to my a deal or even make an offer. You do not like the deal but the 2 parties involved do. That is all that truly matters. Your hurt feelings do not and there was no collusion. Does not much matter though. I can make the same or slightly different offer again if reversed.

You liked the haul until Cade Cavalli was DL'd? Cavalli was injured two weeks ago and it was widely reported at the time that he was going to undergo Tommy John surgery. You accepted the trade two days ago so even a two minute search would have given you that info.
But, ultimately what matters is that the league voted to veto the deal. It received 6 vetoes and one person stated they mistakenly hit approve when they meant to veto. The trade should be reversed.

I received, Cavalli who is the #1 SP in the Nationals system, the #3 third base prospect & #33 overall in Mead, the #2 overall selection in the 2021 draft in Jack Leiter & I got the #4 SP prospect in baseball and #16 prospect overall, Daniel Espino. I like that haul of prospects.

I am not NEW to the league. I too over a different team. This team had very little and what it did have was old. I am building for the future. I picked up Cole @ $43 and turned it into a nice haul of prospects. Might I have been better off trading Nestor separately? Perhaps but I liked the deal I got until Cavilli was DL'ed. Shit happens. Unfortunate for me but again, shit happens. I made it know They both were available and I only got 2 offers for Cole. One of which at the time I liked enough..

AND-i offered to send him someone other than Cavelli, but he declined.
-
And we started talking deal BEFORE I got named commissioner
-
For those interested, it was his deal, new commissioner or not.
-
I mistakenly voted “approve” for that extremely lopsided trade - it was right before bed and I made a mistake. I can’t change my vote but wanted to post here so the commissioner knows I intended to veto the trade.
-
On a trade-related note, if you do make me an offer and need a quick response send it in the morning if you’re in the States. I’m 6 hours ahead of the eastern time zone in the states so if you offer too late in the day, I probably won’t see it until the next day.
-
Yeah, it’s definitely not looking good. Remember you have the option to veto it if you want.
-
Just so everyone is aware- the accepted trade is so bad/lopsided that there is a post on the Ottoneu message board about it.
The fact that the new commissioner made the trade with a person who just joined the league makes it look even worse.

Sounds good, Akron! This is my first year in this league and I’m looking forward to it. Thanks for stepping up to take on a bigger role to make sure things run smoothly.
-
and if anyone has a problem with someone in the league, please send me a message rather than fight it out in the message board. hopefully this wont happen, but id rather mediate a resolution behind closed doors than read about it in the press.

also - i would want to weed out people who dont participate and log into the league consistently. i am hoping that we can have a group of people who actively participate, are respectful and make this a great league again. im asking that if someone proposes a trade, PLEASE respond as quickly as possible so that guys can either move on or you can negotiate a good deal. nothing is worse than having a proposal out for days on end.

this also allows everyone to plan accordingly to make sure that as many teams as possible will be able to attend. i realize that no date is always going to work for everyone, but by having a consistent day, you will be able to set your calendars and, barring an emergency, you should be able to attend. this wont be moved because one team cant make it and, by setting this now, we can get the draft day settled without a million messages and emails.

ok - so the first thing i want to do as commissioner is establish a draft day which will be consistent every year and not change. i am leaning towards the second sunday in march. this gives us enough time to fill out all our rosters and allows for transactions for players moved up and down the minor league system. we can set a time of 7p eastern, which allows everyone the opportunity to join and draff their teams. even though the dates will shift, the DAY will be consistent every year.
