Make sure to toggle off the bench players not starting too. I’m ok with it as well, but it’s ultimately up to the opponent in my opinion.

Fyi, it looks like you have the "Bench position players that are not in their MLB starting lineup" setting selected and no one on your bench is starting, so this is expected behavior. I'm good with the commish updating this for you since you're new and this is the first time is come up, but I think anyone in the future has to live with it, since there could be a competitive advantage of waiting till the last minute to make lineup decisions and now everyone should know how that setting

Several of my players were moved to the bench and I didn't make those moves. I have 4 open position on my roster. Can you move them back so my points count plz

I have someone who wants to take over Trout Season. I'm not sure how to claim the team though. Their email is jfultz0@gmail.com

I've marked Trout Season as abandoned. This opens the team up for anyone to claim. If anyone knows of someone interested, let them know the team can be claimed.

Any update on draft date?

Just an FYI season starts early again this year with Pads/Dodgers playing in Seoul so some of those dates are after season starts.

Here's the link the the schedule poll. Let me know if you have any questions.
Also, don't forget to get under the salary and roster limits by the 31st!
-
Hi Everyone- Look for a survey to come out tomorrow for draft availability. Looking forward to another season!
Also a reminder - make sure your team is in compliance with roster/salary cap rules in order to be able to participate in the draft. Let me know if you have any questions.
-
We should start looking at draft dates considering there’s most likely multiple leagues we have to consider.

Hey guys, I got a little ahead of myself and cut a couple players I would like back. Is there a way I can get the following players back on my roster:

If not, understand.

Ohhh, yea. That's kind of a staple of ottoneu. There's a lot of discussion about it in old posts about it in the community. There are even badges for having $200 dollars in loans ($600 in cap) or loaning out $200 ($200 in cap).
-
Just to be clear: I was being serious about learning how to use the cap. Getting loans in the deals to allow teams to blow through the cap is pretty brilliant. Much harder with a hard cap.

The hunter brown deal included two pickups (Sheehan and noda, who papi had cut a few weeks before the trade). But again, I don't think anyone is faulting you in this. You're just taking advantage of the opportunity presented by a team that makes illogical decisions (the current trade also includes a guy you added -bailey- that papi cut a month ago)

I don't know what else to say Reign....Go look at all the deals made this year. Aside from this deal I just made and Bibee deal which ended up being Moniak (who's still crushing it) and Raley (also still crushing it), those are the only waiver pickup deals I made and McLain was a waiver pickup by BPM so I don't really get where I'm constantly making these moves. I've made two and they usually leave me with depth issues. I drafted Abreu and Shuster for Springer deal who I dropped.

We did trade for high end players but we also gave up quality and quantity in exchange. I think we can all agree that trading is something that makes fantasy a lot more fun, but a lot of wild things deals got done because he could always supplement the set backs with free trade assets from big papi. It's a really successful blueprint. Pick up guys off waviers, flip the waiver picks ups to papi for real assets, then package those newly acquired assets for studs.
-
I do agree with the commitment portion, but every league usually has someone with questionable decision making. Just the other day I saw Yelich get dealt for Urshela with loan covered and all from last place team to 4th place team. Maybe only time I’ve ever voted to veto a trade. It still went through.

If anything Reignman has benefited quite a bit from me being in the league in terms of acquiring “best players”. This year more than others you can be quite successful with not so big names.

I traded Reignmen Gunnar, Tucker and Alcantara for hurt Altuve, hurt Bryant, hurt Verlander, hurt Nestor, Alvarez and Giolito. Aside from Semien, Valdez, and Brown. Those are the only two players I’ve received my BPM that I still have. I drafted Soto, Ramirez, Ozzie, Randy, Yoshida, JD.

The larger point about papi making numerous bad deals with you stands though. I don't think anyone faults you for proposing/accepting these, but there's no discernable competitive reason for papi to be making these moves. Couple that with the fact that papi is in 125+ leagues, and I think it's logical to question the efficacy of his team and commitment to this league.
-
I just like wheeling and dealing. Most of my loan money actually came from that Acuña deal if you take a deeper dive.

Ha, Steinbrenner didn't have a feeder team like big papi that gave him all their best players and all their cap space. That makes things a little easier.

I need a salary cap lesson from Wild Thing! Way over the cap, and still makes moves to get better…He’s the Steinbrenner of our league

To clarify my perspective, I don't have an issue with anything Wild Thing did. If I received an offer of Bibee and $8 for Burleson I would have also accepted in a second. I would then expect it to get vetoed because it's so indefensible on Papi's side.
-
George springer isn’t good anymore. wild thing just had to cut him and nobody wanted him at his price.

There's player evaluation again. In my opinion Bryan Abreu, one of the two said nobodies as stated by Rhys. He's a stud (look at statcast too) at $1 salary and probably Houston's closer next year. Also Springer is now just sitting in the waiver wire.
I'm fine with the veto, and looking to move past it as well, but I don't know anyone in this league. I play with non-dynasty strategy for the most part, b/c of the fact that player evaluations change daily in my opinion.

We also NEVER veto, but with no context it's hard to rationalize this trade without assuming some sort of collusion or maybe Papi is giving up on the league and trying to spike it on the way out. Trading expensive guys for prospects and big loans is very justifiable once you've been eliminated from the playoffs and are just trying to get setup for the next draft.
-
My reason for veto isn't because it made your team better wild thing, it's more to do with the fact that papi regularly bids twice as much as anyone on young players, didn't bid on bleday, then 5 days later, gives up his most promising starter who is looking like a great keeper for next year, shortly after giving you springer for two nobodies. I'm not saying it's collusion, but it did raise some fishiness flags for me
