Yeah... 😅
He's been on the bubble and when I cut him last time I was boggling back and forth between him and Ryne Nelson, which is how I accidently had the wrong guy selected.
I like Quinn, but shoulder issues in the minors are no joke.
-
Interesting cut Phil! Lmfao
-
Grazie!
-
Done!
-
Hey Commish,
Can you undo that Quinn Matthews cut? I thought I was cutting someone else. 😅😅
-
Thank for the clarity, Phil!
-
In other words: there's only one position: Pitcher.
SP/RP doesn't mean anything functionally.
You put players in the slot of the role they fill.
Bonus fact: openers have to be in SP to earn points, and followers need to be in RP.
Thanks Tigers for making my life that much harder last year.
-
You want to slot him in at SP. For pitchers the listed position of SP or RP doesn't matter. Any pitcher can go in an SP slot or an RP slot. But to get points for an appearance, the pitcher needs to be in the spot they are actually appearing in. As an example, the Braves had Grant Holmes throw an inning out of relief in their opener to keep him on schedule. I didn't realize they were going to do that. Holmes was in my lineup but as an SP, so I didn't get points.
-
Rule III.d
All pitchers can be placed in either SP or RP positions on the lineup and roster organizer pages. However they will only accrue statistics if you use them in the same manner as their MLB team
SP spots must be taken by pitchers who are starting in MLB games. If a player in a team's lineup SP slot does not start on the day they are in the SP slot, they will not accrue statistics
RP spots must be taken by pitchers who are in the bullpen in MLB games...
-
Rules question: I just picked up Easton Lucas who is functioning in reality as a starter. Only still designated as RP. Do I need to slot him into one of my RP or SP spots to get points for his next start?
-
How in the hell did it come to pass that somehow the Yankees alone have some new magic bat?
-
Big day! No rain!
-
Now for the fun game of, "How many games will actually be played Thursday?"
We're already down to 14 with the Rays/Rockies.
-
Set those lineups!
-
I didn't know it did that, but I do like that it does... Let's make it happen. #disrupt #shakeitup
-
@Kwan,
The audacity to put specific players on your "Wanted" half of the trade block.
Trying to facilitate a triangle trade?
Has there ever been a 3+ team trade in this league?
-
Thanks, Bill for that breakdown for us! Yup yup. I believe the first game is Tuesday so have it to me by Monday evening if interested. I’ll confirm the total pot in the message boards come Tuesday next week! Good luck everyone!
-
Just like last year, for anyone who wants to do the optional $25 buy-in for a winner's pot, Venmo Stefan by Opening Day, @Stefan-Sanderson, last 4 of phone number 6599. If you're new to the league, the breakdown works as such: If we have up to 4 paid participants, the highest place contributing participant takes all. 5-8 participants means top 2 finishers will be paid out 67/33%. 9-12 participants would be 60/30/10% payout. Last year we had good participation with 9! Good luck, all.
-
Completely forgot this one but four other drafts tonight, sham on me sinc I had 80$ to spend
-
that discord invite isnt working for me
-

Draft is tonight, @9pm! See yall later and good luck.
-
A few owners needed some help with the draft time, so I’ve moved it to 9pm, EST. If this is an issue for you please chime in! Thanks yall,
Looking forward to Monday,
Stefan
-
sounds good to me
-
Thanks for weighing in yall. I’m going to update it to occur one week from today. In the meantime if anyone has any pressing issue with this date change - please chime in!
-
I say we move it
-
Pretty sure I'm the only holdout for March 10th, and I can adjust my schedule to make it. I wouldn't want us to miss games.
-
As far as I know nothing will count towards team points until after the draft bc we are not able to set lineups until that point. Hopefully that’s not to problematic. Was the best date for the group
-
How does it work with our auction being after the official kickoff of the season with the Tokyo series? My other league has lineups to set for those games, so will our league just not count any points for cubs/dodgers players the first 2 games?
-
Don't remember if I voted, but 26 id fine with me
-
We’ve had 9 teams vote for a draft date so far everyone who has voted has agreed that Wednesday Mar 26th is the best date. The day before the first game. Unless the last 3 teams have issue with that date I think we may have our winner.
-
Allow 2-3 hours for the draft? How many hours should we allow for Garrett Cole to reinjure himself?
-
We finally got the league filled up! Sorry for the delay:
Let's get a draft time on the board. All times are listed @8pm EST. Please allow for 2-3 hours to complete the draft. Please fill out your draft availability as soon as you can, thanks!
Stefan

Looks like A-Rod may get his team after all. Time for a new name. Allow me to make your day whether you've seen it before or not: https://youtu.be/ufSQMXLO95w?si=ilTv0pWSUEbFUYfB. Know that for a Red Sox fan of a certain age this is a perfect time capsule of nostalgic joy.
-
All right gang - the only owner I haven’t heard from is Jeters so we are looking for a replacement. I’ll send out a draft schedule soon for us to vote on!
-
Still in guys
-
Brewsters posted back in November “Guys, I’m retired”, so think it’s safe to say he’s out.
-
For the sake of transparency, I’ve messaged the 3 owners who missed the renewal and cut deadlines. Arod, Brewsters, Jeters, I’ll give yall 48 hours to respond before moving forward with owner replacement. Thanks!
Stefan
-
Sorry I missed the extend date - I'm in!
-
Hey yall -
Real talk here: 5 teams have not paid to play, and 3 teams missed the cut deadline. Need yall to communicate with us as what the plan is. In order to have a viable league we need to maintain active participation.
Jeters, Arod, Brewsters, please lets us know what your plan is here. Thank you!
Stefan
-
Heard from one who is having issues? Is that true for the rest of yall too?
-
Still 5 owners who need to pay tonight! Thanks!
-
Hello Mendozites,
Friendly reminder today is cut/team renewal day.
We currently have 5 teams that need to make cuts by EOD, and 6 teams that need to renew! Make sure to take care of this sometime before midnight, EST!
Thanks,
Stefan
-
Hey gang,
Friendly reminder you must make cuts and get under $400 salary by end of day, Friday. You must also renew your team which can be found here (https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/userdashboard), next to your team name. If you haven't played auction style before, and I believe we have at least one new owner, the cap space you create via cuts is what you will have to spend at the auction draft so keep that in mind as you cut. Let me know if you have any questions.
-
Absolutely.
The international signing pool is pointless if you can just buy dollars from other teams. The Dodgers get Sasaki, the Reds save money (2x). It's a joke.
I'm not bitter because it's the Reds selling dollars BTW. I'm bitter that OF COURSE the guy who is "officially" getting paid market minimum annually is going to the Dodgers. Baseball doesn't have the balls to find anything in their investigating into foul play because they can't have another scan
-
I assume you're referring to Sasaki and this Tanner Scott signing is just a twist of the knife.
-
Dude:
Eff the Dodgers.
Looking forward to no baseball in 2027 during a 3-way war between the Players' Union, the filthy rich teams, and all the other teams.

Nando, are you sure Manfred lets you play fantasy baseball?
