My turn to take that screenshot Mikey.

Eloy to the DL, this roster is falling apart right from the jump

Since it looks like Urias is gonna join his fellow 2bs Polanco and Altuve on my DL, I’m probably in a position to make a bad trade of a good temporarily injured player for a Ss/2b/of type

Had to take a screen shot today; may not see one of my teams on top of the standings again for a while 🙂

NEVERMIND. Mixed up teams. Carry on

That last much bigger trade definitely doesn’t work under the rules. It doesn’t matter if Kev puts Rhys up for auction and removes the penalty afterward. The trade itself takes him over the cap which isn’t allowed. Come on guys

Yes, sorry, that was my fault—I looked at the wrong part of his cap statement. We found a way to work it out.
-
Henry is capped out at $425 and cannot receive a loan so that small trade was cancelled

Adios Rhys. I’m not sure he ever opened his locker here at Falsist Park so at least we keep the swag for the next guy. It’s annoying—he’s not Acuña, I’m not convinced his game even needs knees as long as he can still rotate his hips—but I’m sure it’s a lot more annoying to him irl. One of you rebuilders should pick him up, $17 might be a bargain if he signs a pillow contract with the Rox….

My squad has a high degree of variance , depends how youth does . I could finish 9th or 3rd or any which way in between
-
I overdrafted bats (which I think is honestly a better postion to be in than vice/versa), so I'll deal Meadows for his equivalent from someone's bullpen

Don't know if anyone else has tried it, but Ottoneu now has a Mock Draft feature that allows you to draft against bots. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/mock-drafts-and-draft-bots/12818
-
Of course there’s no guarantee it’s telling us the truth. I also asked it when ottoneu league 1011 would hold its auction and it couldn’t tell me—so maybe it’s already as capable as 3 of us?
-
I asked Bing if it thought it would ever be able to manage a team by itself? “As an AI language model, I'm constantly learning and evolving. However, I don't think I'll ever be able to manage an Ottoneu fantasy baseball team by myself. My purpose is to assist you in finding information and answering your questions to the best of my ability. Let me know if you have any other questions.”
-
That's awesome research, Pat. I wonder how long until we can have AI entirely manage a team

Finally I asked for tips about ottoneu auctions. Some of the things it told me: don’t overpay for Cs (like 3/4 of the guys it wants me to target), don’t overpay for MIs (okay, I won’t go over $55 for Trea), don’t be afraid to nominate guys I don’t want, and let other players overpay for the first few guys nominated while I wait for bargains later (like a $20 Nick C or a $10 Myers in the FCA auction! Now I’m sure the bot is fucking with me).
-
I also asked it how much I should pay for Trea Turner in an ottoneu auction. $47. Corey Seagar? $31. Then I asked about Turner again and got $55–with some advice that it depends on my team’s needs and a reminder to be careful with my overall budget.
-
With 1 less day than I expected I asked the bing chatbot which players I should target in ottoneu. It suggested Varsho (nice! maybe it knows my team and is playing a game with me?), Chris Taylor, Grandal, and Realmuto. GPT4 may not be ready to manage a team yet.
-
I didn’t ask but, um, thanks. I might have auto-piloted to Sunday night too.
-
Both Fred and Kevin, independent of each other, told me in the last 5 minutes they just realized the auction is Sat, and not Sunday. So hey, everybody, we’re auctioning tomorrow night

I forgot to actively shop McKenzie. Based on arbitration, some of you guys like him more than I do.

Draft date is set...
-
Story cut , 29$ more to spend maybe a blessing in disguise

that would be good for me

How about 3/18 or 3/19?
-
I say ,we want Brent , let's get another date
-
I cannot make that weekend, but if it's OK with everyone else, so be it. I don't plan on having too much cap space anyway.

I'll brew something just for the drafts ...perhaps a Dusseldorf Alt...the ale that wants to be a lager
-
The 4th is great for me too
-
3/4 in the evening would work for me.
-
How does Saturday 3/4 work for people? I don't think Fred could take anything later than FCA's date without exploding
-
3/11 is maybe the only date I can't make this year.
-
Should clarify my trade block message - JRam and Freeman are keepers unless I get a great offer. More looking for DeGrom and Soto deals.
-
Weekdays are fine for me. But 6 pm AKST is already 10 pm EST….
-
Thursdays are fun...how about 3/8 ?
-
I'm.OK with whatever you choose , 3/11 would be great as it woukd become draft weekend and March madness hasn't started yet
-
The closer to FCA (3/12 this year), the better. Saturday 3/11 is the best day. Any time from 2 weeks before FCA (so, Sunday 2/26) to 1 week after (Sunday 3/19) is okay.
-
Now that the holidays are over and we're all getting back into the swing of things, does anyone want to weigh in on suggested draft dates or should Hitch and I do as Fred has been suggesting and just go ahead and pick a date that works for us? If folks don't want to weigh in on a timeframe for the draft, perhaps you'd like to identify dates that definitely won't work for you? Otherwise I'll just get together with Hitch over the next couple of days and we'll pick a date.
-
Sorry, I posted this in the wrong league, it should have been here: I have catchers Jansen or Perez I’d like trade for an inexpensive reliever. Please make offers
-
I seem to remember having done this draft two weeks prior to the other in years past. I'd be on board with that.
-
Sooner than the other league I suggest
-
Since tomorrow starts a new year, we should probably set a draft date. Any suggestions?
-
That's pretty interesting trade. Two expensive, under-performing big names.
-
Thanks Brent , 1 for 1 trades are always my preference when possible
-
Sell him back to the auction pool
