Just to let the league know - I emailed the four managers who did not participate in arbitration and they have until this weekend to respond. Otherwise, their teams will be abandoned and up for grabs for new owners to manage. If anyone knows of anybody who wants to take over one of those teams, let me know asap.

I'm willing to switch to one of the other teams if you think it'll be any easier to find someone to take over my club. Just let me know!

As you all know, arbitration is over and it is now trading season. Don't forget to get your team into a legal state by Jan 31st so you can participate in our league's auction draft (date to be determined). Also, it looks like we need 4 new owners for the ones who didn't participate in arbitration. If anyone knows of anybody who wants to take over one of those teams, let me know asap, so that I can get them signed up and our league full again.
Happy Trading Season Everyone

Go Braves! Sign Freddie Freeman! :-)

I’ll be doing my arbitration tonight after kids are in bed. Sorry for the delay! (Go Braves!)

Heads up: Arbitration ends November 14. Even if you're not coming back next year, please take this step. Thanks.

Ok, leaguemates. Arbitration has opened. Use 1-3 dollars per other's teams players. Make sure you use all 25 dollars allocated to you, and add to all other teams, otherwise none of your arbitration will count. Example: use $3 on 7 teams and $1 on the other 4 teams. Hope all will participate. You have 1 month to complete arbitration, then it's trading season. Any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Hey guys. Looks like our default salary increases (players pay raises) should happen by this weekend and arbitration will begin on Friday October 15th. I believe arbitration lasts a month and then it's open trading season.

Thanks guys. It was a fun season. Looking forward to the off-season activities and next season's auction draft. Hope most, if not all, participate in off-season activities and return for next year. Let's keep this league going!!!

I'm pretty stoked I came in 8th. Congratz Friar. Maybe I'll make a run when you're old and senile! XD
-
Congratulations, Friar! Coming for you next year (I think).
-
Congrats to Frenzied Friar Faithful! It was an honor to make a run and finish within 700 points of you. LOL.
-
Good question. You will need to have open roster spots to bid on players. However many open spots you have after selecting your keepers will be the number of players you can complete your roster with.
Hope this answers your question.

Do we need to have open roster spots to bid on players in the winter draft? Or do we bid and if we win, we free up the roster spots after the draft?
-
Also, of note, during the off-season there is no auctions/waivers. Trading-yes, waivers-no. When you drop a player from your roster in the off-season, it will be penalty free. That means you will receive the full price back on the players that are dropped. Whereas, during the season, you receive only half the amount of the players worth unless another team picks up such player.
Any questions or concerns regarding the off-season, don't hesitate to ask.

There's only about a month left in the season. Once the season is over, the off-season activities begin. So don't forget to check on the league occasionally. Ottoneu will give our players a pay raise. Then comes arbitration, where we put money on other teams players. (Teams will be locked at season's end through arbitration). After arbitration, it's trading season, until our rosters need to be finalized and legal for next year's auction draft (usually the end of January for legal rosters).

Getting ready to put some bigger names on the trade block. I'm looking for strong 1B, SS, 2B, primarily.
-
Hi All, I'm officially accepting offers on big name players, like Rendon. Maybe they can help you make a run for it the rest of the year. Looking for prospects and controllable young bats in particular. (Aren't we all?)
-
Hi! I put some players on the trading block. I would be open to trading others as well. I'm looking more towards next year at this point.
-
I feel crazy for cutting Snell, but here we are. Lol.
-
I think I should go ahead and mention that I’m taking offers on players, but I will want valuable pieces to build with. No way I’m going to catch up this year.
-
Glad to see another Bravo here! Go Charlie!
-
May I just say as a Braves fan that I'm happy for Charlie Culberson but never thought I'd see the day...
-
Welcome to the league!
-
Hi! Welcome to the league, Not-Stable of 98ers! Good luck to you!
-
Welcome to the Friendly Confines to our new manager. You have a challenge ahead of you to get that team competitive. However, you have a strong base of players to start with. Good luck to you.

Hey everyone! I'm the new guy...not the delinquent finally showing up. This is my first year in Ottoneu but I've been managing a 5x5 team in a very mature league since halfway through the offseason. This should be fun!
-
So it looks like those who responded are good with a replacement manager for that team. If anybody knows of someone who would like that challenge, let me know asap. Otherwise I will try to find another manager through the "managers seeking teams" board or other avenues that ottoneu provides.

I also agree- if any manager is willing to take over during this season, I see no reason to wait

Seeing as every attempt has been made to contact them I feel we should replace as soon as possible if an option.
-
Agreed. Replacing them now is best for the new manager.
-
I say replace as quickly as possible.

I would think a new manager would want as much time as possible to make moves and adjust the team. If we are going to replace this year, we probably need to go now or just wait until next season. If 98er's isn't going to participate, I'd rather replace now if possible.
-
Ok Friendly Confines members - what are we going to do about Stable of 98ers? They have not been on the site since our auction draft. I emailed them to find out their intentions, but received no reply. We can either leave it as is or try to find a new manager for this season. If we leave it as is, they could eventually show up or we can get a new manager next season. Any thoughts?

How good was it to have an Opening Day for a full season again!
Shame about the Braves falling to the Phillies in OT.
Oh... almost forgot, Stable of 98ers, you need to set your lineups man.
-
It's Opening Day! I can almost smell the grass and taste the hot dogs. Good luck everyone and let's go Braves!
-
Today’s the day! Looking forward to the draft later, everyone ready?

Looking forward to it!

Hey everybody. Just a friendly reminder that our auction draft is tomorrow at 4:30 pm eastern time/3:30 pm central time. Hope to have a full house.

For all the new managers to ottoneu- since the league is full, a new heading has appeared on the leagues homepage titled Auction Draft. Click on it and you can see the format of our draft. Also, YouTube has a video demonstrating how the draft is performed. Go to YouTube, in search bar type ottoneu fantasy draft and an 18 minute video should display. Just some helpful info for new managers to ottoneu.
