Good deal, looking forward to it. Good to know we get 12 hours between picks, I'll be traveling a bit this weekend, so I apologize in advance if I take a while on my picks lol.

I'm ready now, commish! Looking forward to Friday...

OK, I've updated the 5MiLB roster spreadsheet, showing the final keepers and actual draft order. Please check these and let me know if I've made a mistake somewhere. I would like to start the 5MiLB slow draft at noon this Friday, 2/16, with the first pick going to new owner Vegas Baby. Each person will have up to 12 hours to make their pick, which they can do by posting on the league message board.

Once your pick is announced, the next owner's time starts. If your pick is determined to be ineligible before the next owner makes a selection, you will have the opportunity to choose again. If your pick is determined to be ineligible after the next owner has already made a selection, you’ll still get a chance to pick again (but you can’t take the person that the next owner picked).

The intention is just to be as fair and reasonable as possible; I know it’s not always easy to confirm eligibility. Everyone is encouraged to double check everyone else’s picks. If someone is repeatedly picking players that aren’t eligible, or isn’t making their picks in time, I reserve the right to move their remaining slots to the end of the draft. Have fun and start combing through rosters!

Hey commish, question. 5MiLB players must be added to an owner’s standard 40-man Ottoneu roster within 48 hours after the 5MiLB player incurs his first MLB PA (hitters) or IP (pitchers) unless the player receives his first MLB PA or IP in the month of September, at which point the owner may choose to keep the player on their 5MiLB roster until the completion of arbitration (commish will add following arbitration). Upon “call up”, the league commissioner will add the non-rostered MiLB play

Thanks for the warm invite. 5MiLB player modifications : Cut SEAN REID-FOLEY, Cut Matt Manning, Cut Bobby Bradley, Cut Luis Ortiz. This leaves me only with Kyle Tucker. Thanks! Roster is updated as well.

Welcome to both Nick and Chris!

Welcome Nick and Chris. Hopefully Sean or Matt have clicked the p/f cuts box in commissioner tools for you.

Commish note: the ottoneu rules don't allow for trading between the cut deadline (1/31) and the auction (3/10). I considered making an exception for our two new owners (welcome!), since they're automatically at a disadvantage from starting later, but ultimately I think it's best that we stick to the rules. I'm open to changing my mind if there's unanimous agreement by all other owners that trading now is ok, but otherwise I'd say no trading prior to the auction on 3/10....

…the new owners will still be allowed a round of penalty-free cuts, both from their 40-man roster and their 5MiLB roster. I would like these cuts to be made before Monday, 2/12, and then for us to start the 5MiLB slow draft on Friday, 2/16. Sound good? Let me know if you have any questions - Sean

This was probably the most enjoyable version of fantasy I've done, I'll definitely be back. Also, welcome to the new owners!

Can I try to swing a quick deal or two before cuts :) block is pretty wide open. Will respond quickly

Great to hear! Everyone else is in for the season I take it?
-
well, all it took was a little more effort - we've now got new owners for Vegas Baby and NY Debt$. They'll be allowed at least a few days to decide on penalty-free cuts and then we can talk about the 5MiLB draft.

I haven't had any luck getting a hold of NY Debt$. He has not paid for the season (expires 3/7). Unless anyone disagrees I will search for a new owner. I also haven't had any luck replacing Vegas Baby but will step up my efforts. I had planned on starting the 5MiLB draft this upcoming weekend but we'll need to delay until the league is full.

Hasn't been around for a couple of weeks. Did he pay for the season?

Anyone heard from NY Debt$? He was active until recently but didn’t make any cuts. I’m assuming he’ll need to be replaced.

Just a reminder that this is the last day to make penalty-free cuts for both your 40-man and 5MiLB rosters (except for Vegas Baby, who will be able to make cuts once we find a new owner).

I am going to cut Ramon Laureano and Michael Gettys from my 5MiLB roster

Vegas Baby - no problem, I'm looking for a new owner on slack. Please don't cut anyone; whoever takes over for you will have penalty-free cuts.

Commissioner has the power to allow a team penalty free cuts
-
I'll hold on to all the players on the roster. I can field trade offers, and will only take trades that would be no-brainers. I just don't want to do anything that would either hamstring the new owner or make the league mad.

Someone else will have to confirm but if memory serves, a new owner would have a chance to cut whoever they wanted free of charge when they take over - even after the keeper deadline.
-
i also know I would not be able to do the draft on 3/10. basically i just want to make it a smooth transfer to a new owner in a way that doesn't make anybody mad.

guys, I reached out to the commissioners asking if they can replace me as owner. I am not good enough at this game to compete in a league like this - I can tell I'm over my head. I don't want to let the cut deadline go by without cutting players - it seems unfair to everyone to do that. But I don't want to cut players the next owner might want. I can do my best until you abandon me if you want. let me know what is best and i'll try to do right by the league and next owner.

March 10th is good.

March 10 is ok for me but after 8:30pm (est) would be preferable

The 10th works fine with me.

The 10th would work for me as well

If you want a march date - how about the 10th?
