Thanks! Still learning…

As always, a link to the League charter with full breakdown of the rules is available in the League Note section of the League Settings page
-
In regards to Lowder and Jobe, players are no longer eligible for the minor league rosters once they’ve accumulated any PA or IP in the Majors. We have leniency windows baked in for in-season call-ups and send downs, but at the end of the season, all players with any majors experience are automatically called up and the normal $2 major league increase for all players in the offseason is applied. I have just been slammed at worked lately and didn’t catch those guys prior to arbitration
-
Slots for any given year are determined by the number of games played and IP your team accumulates in the previous year. This is to disincentivize tanking and not fielding a competitive team. We give new owners 15 slots as a bonus to get used to the league for a year, but 15 slots is the maximum if you fully max out all games played and IP. Very difficult to do.
-
Can you refresh my memory on the minor league slot rules? Why did I lose two slots?
Also, for guys like Jobe and Lowder - why did they get promoted and given these salaries they did when?
-
Please promote Schultz and T. Johnson to my MLB roster
-
The site is not allowing me to use my plasma gift cards. Can someone please check with Niv for me?

Still have 8 owners that need to re-up for the new season. Half a month left!
-
Please remember that the MiLB roster freeze will be in effect from February 1st until the completion of the MiLB draft after the regular Ottoneu auction. Please let me know your drops by the January 31s deadline.
Happy trading
-
MiLB rosters have been updated!
I had to add a few players to rosters that slipped through the cracks prior to arbitration. Apologies for not letting these players go through the arbitration process, though none of the adds were likely to get dollars assigned to them. Please help me remember this step prior to arbitration next year.
In addition, roster spots have been updated as well. No one achieved the maximum 15 slots this year, leaving new owner Big Papi as the only
-
Happy New Year everyone! We’ve a month left in trading season. Another reminder to Re-Up your team for the new year. Still have 10 owners left to renew!
-
Everyone welcome Big Papi to the league! He's an Ottoneu vet. Papi if you're confused about the Minor League system at all, let me know.
-
We had one owner miss arb. Not ideal but thanks for everyone who did complete it. Transactions are unlocked and the trading window is open. Update those trade blocks.
Only other reminder is to renew your team for the upcoming season. If you aren’t planning on renewing, please let me know ASAP!
-
Hey guys, Tom here. You may know me as the guy that finished twelfth in the standings last season, but I’ll tell you, the real losers are the owners that don’t complete arbitration. As someone that voted for Lucius “Just In Time” Everylove for POTUS, I understand pointing a middle finger to the establishment, and we all know Luke is the Ottoneu equivalent of Mitch McConnell and Nancy Pelosi’s love child. Don’t do it for the limp dick commissioners. Do it for you, and your buddy Tom.

Anyone have any leads for a new owner for Musial? I think we should try to fill that before arb is over.

Also, still 3 teams to do arbitration. Please get it done by the deadline tomorrow. Thanks

Only one more week to complete arbitration everyone. Get ‘er done

Any leads on a new owner for Musial’s Team?
-
Happy Arb every one. We have a month to complete.
Please let me know if you aren’t going to be playing next season, I’d love to give potential new managers the chance to arb who they’d like.
We already have one open team. As always, I like to fill from people we know or have played with before opening up to the full Ottoneu pool. Let me know if you have anyone who’d like to play in the league, otherwise I’ll open Musial’s team to the public on November 1st
-
Thanks all. It was a nail biter toward the end. Congrats to Luke and Simon who battled to the very last game!
Congrats to Musial on the job as well and hope everyone else can return next season.
Grateful for the solid leather pajamas idea; after all you dress for the job you want and not the one you have.
Here's to a Tigers/Barves world series 🍻
Stay safe everyone.

Thanks for the congratulations. Watching the game last night made me realize I should have used my good health voodoo on my Atlanta Braves instead of Aaron Judge. Oh well. Cheers to everyone for making it through a long season. - Joey
-
I think Daddies' biggest accomplishment is whatever voodoo ritual they did to make Judge stay healthy for an entire season.
-
Congrats to the Daddies! And great season by Mo too, tried hard to catch you but it was a lost cause.
-
Congrats to the winners this season. It's been great playing with you all, but I just took a new job and I have to take a big step back from Ottoneu. Best of luck, and please mark my team abandoned!
-
I presume the squeak of their leather pajamas keeps them up in bed all night, so they’re really working with a lot more time than we are
-
Congrats to Daddies on the win! We're going to spend the entire offseason figuring out how they do it year in and year out.

By my math, I can still win if Luisangel puts up a cool 6,000 in this doubleheader. So let's hold off on all the anointing.

Great season everyone - some more than others (ahem, Tom). Off-season starts now. Congrats again Daddies, I guess. I hope y’all aren’t fighting with all those rings on
-
Yeah it's been fun having him in the lineup all season! I wonder what his keeper cost will be post-arbitration...

"$67 is too high for ohtani if he's not going to pitch...." - 11 teams in this league 👀

Would someone mind adding Acuna before tonight's games? Thanks!
