• This is a very active league and my favorite one so I am surprise that 5 teams haven't participated in arbitration.

  STL Wise Guys on November 12, 2021 4:15 PM

• Reminder that Arbitration ends this Sunday, November 14.

  Otto Who? on November 12, 2021 1:14 PM

• Great to have you sticking with us! Arbitration starts tomorrow guys. Remember you have to use all $25 for your money to stick. I believe its minimum $1 per team and max $3 per team you can assign.

  Proletariat Stars on October 14, 2021 10:31 AM

• Okay that was helpful background and I appreciate the timeline explanation. I’ll give it a shot!

  Sandlot Sharks on October 13, 2021 3:06 PM

• The above isn't that much different than any keeper/dynasty league. It is a daily line up league once the season starts but that's pretty straight forward and even the guys that run Ottoneu say you shouldn't be spending more than 5 minutes per day on your line up.
  
  There are some nuances here and there. I put off trying Ottoneu for a year because the first time I looked at it, it seemed too complicated and involved. But the learning curve really was not nearly as difficult as I th

  Otto Who? on October 13, 2021 2:29 PM

• Bank One Ballpark Pool...Saw your message and wanted to provide a couple of thoughts. I know it seems like a lot initially but really it's 1. Arbitration coming up on 10/15 that runs a month. You can complete arbitration in 5-10 minutes, if not less. 2. After arb. Ends you have nothing until cut down day at the end of January other than pursuing trades if you wish. 3. From Feb 1 to Opening Day you have your own auction prep and then the auction draft to fill out rosters.

  Otto Who? on October 13, 2021 2:23 PM

• Abandon team, hello I am mew to
  Ottoneu so thought I’d check this out. Too involved for my liking. Someone else can take over this team.

  Sandlot Sharks on October 13, 2021 1:19 PM

• nice job, shoopy!!! congratulations!

  Swamp Donkeys on October 6, 2021 12:57 PM

• Congratulations Shoppy.

  STL Wise Guys on October 5, 2021 6:42 AM

• I don't recall illegal offseason rosters being a problem in the past, but that doesn't mean it didn't happen. I can see this season we are all going into the offseason with legal rosters so it also won't be a problem. That being said, having an illegal roster in the offseason is not against the rules unless we make it a house rule. I'll need to hear from people first on this, and then what your opinions are on enforcing this rule. For example: drop the most recent signings until they are legal..

  Proletariat Stars on October 4, 2021 1:39 PM

• Congrats Shoopy

  Rodents of Unusual Size on October 4, 2021 9:52 AM

• I seem to remember that as well. We should all begin the off season with legal rosters.

  STL Wise Guys on October 1, 2021 5:13 AM

• I meant to ask last year but we still have to bring legal rosters into the offseason correct? Last year there was a team that was well over the roster limit after auctioning off a bunch of players at the last minute. Just want to make sure we are all on the same page. Seem like an unfair advantage to have extra players.

  LIMA.BBMPL on September 30, 2021 6:32 PM

• been in this league since the start and i dont think i have ever beaten shoopy. who do i draw in the playoffs? SHOOPY

  Swamp Donkeys on September 10, 2021 8:43 AM

• Kershaw on the block for anyone looking to make it deep into the playoffs. Smith on the block for anyone needing bullpen help.

  Proletariat Stars on August 30, 2021 11:42 AM

• I am looking for an outfield bat.

  STL Wise Guys on August 25, 2021 5:37 PM

• is anyone else having a problem with your lineup changes being saved?

  Swamp Donkeys on July 3, 2021 3:57 PM

• typical shoopy.... lulls you to sleep with a lead on thursday night and then on the weekend? WHAM!!! just waiting for the WHAM!

  Swamp Donkeys on July 1, 2021 8:35 PM

• Lol Akron...Just trying to catch up to you Deviles

  Anaconda Cut on June 7, 2021 12:04 PM

• if you had 1000 points, shoopy would have 1001

  Swamp Donkeys on June 7, 2021 10:43 AM

• Way to go Shoopy 854 points. I had 708 and lost.

  STL Wise Guys on June 7, 2021 6:09 AM

• these injuries...... how do you combat/compete with all of this? got one guy back yesterday and lost two last night. up to TEN......

  Swamp Donkeys on June 3, 2021 8:21 AM

• All this time I was waiting for Urias to come into his own, he finally does and I trade him before the all-star break. LOL, I suppose that is what happens when you think you can contend for a playoff spot and win your divison but come out of the gate 2-6.

  MLBRaleigh on May 31, 2021 5:44 PM

• ***Selling***

  MLBRaleigh on May 29, 2021 3:36 PM

• I know . I was just speaking about myself.

  STL Wise Guys on May 26, 2021 8:31 AM

• I'm not accusing anyone, just outlining my trade voting philosophy, its a valid question.

  Future-Proof on May 26, 2021 8:23 AM

• I didn't bring up "collusion or bribery or whatever". It just looked weird given the Gurriel salary. I just wanted to see what others thought. Again, I approved the trade.

  STL Wise Guys on May 26, 2021 6:17 AM

• i did not propose the deal. it was otto who sent it to me.

  Swamp Donkeys on May 25, 2021 8:59 PM

• I'm of the opinion that I only veto trades if I think there's some kind of collusion or bribery or whatever. Plenty of trades look weird to some people.

  Future-Proof on May 25, 2021 1:24 PM

• Not sure where I see an issue with that trade. Gurriel hasn't exactly been killing it and it seems like a needs based trade. Pitching and depth for a struggling high price player isnt uncommon.

  Anaconda Cut on May 25, 2021 11:36 AM

• I approved trade but .....

  STL Wise Guys on May 25, 2021 11:01 AM

• Before I vote what is the Gurriel trade about? Just asking?

  STL Wise Guys on May 24, 2021 4:10 PM

• Would have been 7 but Sixto did not make it out of Spring Training and is still out.

  MLBRaleigh on May 21, 2021 7:40 PM

• 6 pitchers on the DL

  MLBRaleigh on May 21, 2021 7:38 PM

• have 11 in my other league

  Swamp Donkeys on May 20, 2021 6:57 PM

• I had 7 in another league. You add 4 minor league players and that is not a lot of players to play with.

  STL Wise Guys on May 20, 2021 3:14 PM

• NINE guys on the injured list

  Swamp Donkeys on May 20, 2021 8:13 AM

• I am looking for 2B. I have added to my trading block. Make me an offer.

  STL Wise Guys on April 24, 2021 7:57 AM

• Two SP starts with 40+ points this week... And two starts with -40 points. Baseball giveth, and baseball taketh away.

  Future-Proof on April 23, 2021 8:27 AM

• Yeah, I'd be winning by a small margin instead of losing if I had just benched Ross.

  Future-Proof on April 21, 2021 12:44 AM

• That's a pretty rough one. I feel like there has been quite a few of those types of outings this year. I used Joe Ross yesterday in another league and he was -39. Not great Bob

  Anaconda Cut on April 20, 2021 2:33 PM

• Can anyone else remember having a rostered and active pitcher doing worse than -44 points in a single outing?

  Otto Who? on April 20, 2021 2:29 PM

• I'm looking for a solid bullpen arm or two, could part with a starter or position player if the value is right.

  Future-Proof on April 19, 2021 9:15 AM

• I'll be honest. 0-2 with the lowest points in the league, is not how I saw this league going for me.

  MLBRaleigh on April 19, 2021 7:46 AM

• I am looking for a SP

  MLBRaleigh on April 8, 2021 11:59 PM

• LMAO, the season has yet to begin and I already have 6 pitchers with "DTD, "SUSP" or "COVID19" next to their names.

  MLBRaleigh on March 28, 2021 4:23 PM

• what is with all these closers going down???

  Swamp Donkeys on March 27, 2021 1:47 PM

• dunno. just kept trying and it finally worked.

  Swamp Donkeys on March 25, 2021 8:32 AM

• Good to hear Zips. What was it?.

  STL Wise Guys on March 23, 2021 7:54 PM

• up and running! thanks for all your help!
