Hey Redrock, will send around scheduling request for draft by end of week, sorry for the delay! If someone else wants to setup a Doodle in the meantime feel free!

Hanshin Tigers's trade block has been updated!
-
Hey guys, hit me up if you want to discuss players. I'm based in NZ, so you're unlikely to hear from me before midday eastern.
-
Hi all - FYI we have a new owner for Hanshin Tigers effective today.
PS - I'll be setting up scheduling for the draft soon.

All mine are.

Any starting pitchers on the block ?
-
I also won last year and don't need to trade (though am certainly open to it), so not in a rush :-)

I've been out of the country the past two weeks, so haven't been around too much to respond to or get involved in trade offers (also been tied up with a very small baby!). I'm here, I'm active. We've had a ton of trades and activity and I expect that to continue.

He responded to a trade offer I made on 12/4.
-
I guess you could email Niv and say we haven't heard from our commissioner since November and if he could contact him? If he doesn't get a response, then maybe he can assign a co-commissioner. The last message the commissioner posted was on October 5 asking that the new owners pay their league fees to show their commitment to this year, but nothing since. The commish has been in this league since it started. I don't think he would be like the 1997 Florida Marlins, win the league, then bail.

At what point do we start to become concerned about the commissioner? He hasn't responded to messages since November and hasn't responded this week about setting a draft date.
Can we email Ottoneu and get a co-commissioner appointed?
-
Sounds good... I don't mean to be difficult either. I just want to make sure that this league is worth the time and money and that the lack of activity during this time isn't indicative of what the season will be like. I'll take a chill pill. haha
-
On that note. I don't think we need to worry about the commish. If there is a dead team or two I know a few guys that will gladly take over the team. They are super active and nice guys. I hope we have a good season. I took over a very shitty team and think I have a contender this year. But don't want to be in a dead league, which I don't think will happen
-
I joined this league last year. There was alot of turnover then and aging this year. I would say 50% of teams are ew since the last year. I was involved and many were active last year. I think I made about 11 trades since I joined. The commissioner runs a good ship from what I've seen. He got everyone to do arbitration. He has been doing it since beginning and I personally feel he is good. Maybe he is on vacation or something. I see the newer guys are active which is a good sign.

Yeah, pretty much have to.
-
..with you then.
-
I do see that there have been a decent number of moves during last season... I'll keep an open mind here and see how it all plays out. Just can be frustrating for teams coming in trying to rebuild when teams are unresponsive. Also, I don't want to put the time in energy into a league if it's heading in the wrong direction.
-
i guess you can take it as a sign that they don't want to trade with then.
-
I said I understand if people don't get back right away. I even understand if they don't wanna make moves, but at least respond. When you voluntarily join a fantasy baseball league which is supposed to be more involved than a typical league, like making moves during this time of year, than be active. When it's weeks and you still don't hear a response from a team, that's a problem... not a lack of patience.
-
Also, this is a really bad time of year with the holidays now and the beginning of a new year. I'm currently unemployed, so I have extra time on my hands to check my team daily. But, I have no idea what the commissioner does and what other people do for a living or what kind of situations they have in life. I know there are some hardcore Ottoneu owners who have multiple teams in prize leagues, but realize not everybody playing Ottoneu out there is like that. Be patient. Thanks.

there have been 50 trades in the last calendar year in this league and every team has made at least one. don't look at activity in the middle of winter as a sign of anything. everyone manages their roster differently. some people make a ton of trades, some people draft and keep. to each his own.
-
This was a very active league last year, so I'm not worried about the lack of response. I know some owners don't even check their teams until closer to the Keeper Deadline or unload all of their non-keepers right before January 31 instead of trying to make trades.

There are 3 teams that have done nothing and at least one other that seems to have fallen off here lately. And I think either you, Redhead, or I have been involved in almost all of the deals in the offseason.The other league I'm in only has 1 semi dead team and it makes things really enjoyable. I guess it's good enough to stick around, it's just kind of frustrating, esp when the commish is one of the teams MIA.
-
High and Tight- I'm new as well and between the two of our teams I think we've made trades with 7 of the 10 other teams (I think I've made trades with 6 already). Yes there are a couple teams that haven't responded quickly but only one team has been completely inactive since trade season started and all 12 teams allocated during arbitration. Overall I think this league is pretty active (much more so than other leagues that have openings). I just wish our commish was around...
-
Yeah same here... A few teams in the league like that. I hate to be the guy that brings this up, seeing as how I'm new and all, but this league is like half dead. I'm not looking for responses within 24 hours, but within a week or so. Judging from old messages I can see, this seems to be a problem in this league. I'm going to say I won't be sticking around if it doesn't get more active. This is one of the best times for ottoneu... If you just wanna sit on a roster, go play espn. Rant done.
-
Has anyone heard anything from the commissioner recently? He hasn't responded to my messages or trade offers since November.

Sunday nights work best for me as well (with the exception of March 5th which I can't do).
-
I'm cool with Sunday.
-
Sunday evenings work for me too. Early Saturday mornings work as well. Anything during the week is bad.

With the holidays now behind us, can we come up with a draft date for the league? I'd like to make sure I can make it and the early we schedule it, the better.
