Josh’s cuts are processed. Give me a shout for any other cuts. I’m currently at the Buffalo Wild Wings in the Atlanta Airport so forgive me if I’m late to respond. Working on setting up a draft date survey. Hopefully we can get a date set by the end of the week
-
Would you mind processing Josh's cuts to better show the impact? I don't think I'm cutting anyone, but it makes the analysis easier.

Cap penalties will be applied to Cads on the 5th ;-P
-
I think wOBAs suggestion is simplest, and makes sense. If anyone would like to submit more cuts based on Josh’s, please post them by the end of the day 2/4. Thanks everyone.
-
Also in favor of penalty free cuts for Josh
-
Let the man play, people miss deadlines. Hope you feel better soon

Whatever is decided, here are my cuts- G. Torres, W. Castro, T. Fitz, J. Ramirez, J. Jung, L. Robert, S. Suzuki, N. Castellanos, T. Ward, B. Marsh, Gav. Williams, B. Bello, G. Stone, L. Severino, Y. Rodriguez, J. Means, B. Francis, A. Suarez, A.J. Puk, A. Alzolay, R. Stanek, P. Sewald, T. Taylor, A. Chapman. Thanks guys.

I agree w WOBA’s suggestion

Alternatively, we give Josh's penalties to Cads.

Josh is one of my best friends in the league and a key part of my burgeoning alliance, so I am good with anything that helps him.

We're good with penalty free as long as everyone else has a chance to cut based on Josh's cuts. Let's say EOD EST on Feb 4th?
-
hope everything is OK Josh.
just spitballing an idea for precedence: what about allowing penalty free cuts, but the rest of the league league votes for a "vote off" of one player from the team that missed?
-
In regards to the Jake Eder cut for Detroit. He’s another debutant that I missed, and I added him to Detroit’s roster too late for him to make the cuts by the deadline. Given it was my mistake and Detroit didn’t want to keep him, he’s being released back into the free agent pool at no penalty to Detroit
-
Sorry guys. I was completely knocked out with some kind of virus. Still kinda going thru it- but I’ll leave it up to you all.

I think he has a valid reason for missing, but I won’t air details unless he wants to. As I also haven’t been too responsive, and with his quick response regarding missing the deadline, I’m all for letting him have his cuts.
-
Hey y’all. A few minor decisions we need to make before scheduling the draft.
Josh was our only team not to make cuts. He contacted me on the 1st, very soon after the cut deadline. Given the circumstances, I’m willing to make his cuts penalty-free, as to keep the league more competitive for the upcoming season. The alternative would be to allow him to make cuts with the typical salary cap penalties going into the draft. That would likely cripple his team for the season.

Please drop Brayden Taylor, Brock Wilken, Luis Baez, Ralphy Velazquez, and Yophery Rodriguez from my MiLB roster. Thank you

Everyone has re-upped for the season. Much rejoicing. Reminder that rosters must be valid by the end of the day!

I will drop Rada, Perdomo and Troy from my MiLB roster please and thanks.

Lombard is on our MILB roster. So he goes to Papi for Conforto.

Can someone explain the conforto deal? My old brain is not following - looks like comforto + Lombard for nothing?

Quick point of clarification - We just have to be at our MiLB limit by the 31st, correct? Can we still promote guys after the deadline but prior to the MiLB draft?

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!
