Ahhh ok so essentially this is a terrible move for Funkytown? Already has freeman who is known for playing every day, taking on another high dollar first baseman and maxing out his salary cap? This is my first year just trying to get the lay of the land. Thanks!

Also gives me a ton of flexibility for trading
-
It's all salary cap based on that decision. Also makes sense roster wise as well. I love the value of Nate Lowe and hoskins next year so needed to move a 1B, with picking up Harper something had to give and production per dollar this felt like the best move.
-
Makes sense with cap issues and free up more $ for Seemore. My 1st time playing with this type of salary cap.
-
He did. Just saying as the person with the second least amount of cap space it’s not the most ideal place to be. I was discussing trades with funky town as well involving guys like Luis Robert on my end with a big thing being additional cap space. Didn’t agree on anything of course just saying a deal like it makes sense to me
-
All about cap space. Reason why I cut Harper.
-
He already had harper under the cap did he not? This puts him another 24 dollars under the cap. Am I missing something? Please if I am wrong tell me I have no problem at all being wrong.

Semore essentially was able to add Bryce Harper because of the cap space created by the trade. As someone currently up against the cap it makes total sense to me. People of course can vote how they please
-
Fair enough, but I think you would agree that is kind of a red flag? I am not normally one to veto anything

Just saying this doesn’t look good for league.

Hey Seemore and funkytown help me understand that last trade between yall? Seems a bit lopsided to say the very least...

Trade should be sticking
-
Semore and Brooklyn, y’all get that trade figured out? Is it getting cancelled or no?
-
If the time stamp of your message is any indication (after midnight), it had already rolled to Saturdays games vs Fridays games.
Also, of course Semore gets Harper 🤣
-
Hey is anyone else"s "Today's Stats" not showing up? It's just showing scheduled games for me.
-
This also my 1st time playing in ottoneu and salary cap. Sure take little getting use to. I like 👍
-
O shit Semore, I messed up, I did the trade thinking that it would free up cap space. for me, and it did the opposite. Sorry, this is my first time playing Ottoneau or with cap space. This will be the last time I as this for the rest of my years in this league, but could I get Rasmussen back? That's a critical mistake on my part.
-
Correct. 162 games, you gotta pace it out, use the tracker...once you get behind though, it's difficult if not impossible to make it up. Sometimes it will be better to start a player at MI or UTIL vs their position...all based on games played at the position.
-
Correct, if your main dude for a position is going to play 140 games this year you know you have 22 sub days for your bench guys for that slot. There is a tracker for games played to help you pace it out.
-
So I'm thinking about this correctly. With the position limits they way that they are, it's not as simple on a day like today (or any day) to blindly play whoever has a game/is in the starting lineup because that could mean not being able to play someone down the road today. In other words, every day is like a test of "Yuli Gurriel vs. the Mets today or Rowdy Tellez vs. the Cubs tomorrow". As opposed to other fantasy league I play in where that is not the case.

RIP GMoreno

Got it. Thanks.

Trades process in 24 hours. You can vote to approve if you like. If a majority +1 (so 7) vote to veto, it will stop the trade.
-
Do we all need to approve each trade?
-
Wouldn't that be nice...
-
Are $0 bids allowed?
-
If you put a guy up for auction you dont need to put in a bid amount, you will automatically get the minimum bid amount.
-
Thank you both! I just went ahead and put some bids in.

On the league home page, if you click the Bid link in the top right corner of the auction section, it will show all players currently being auctioned and there's a column showing your current bid, if any. You can adjust your bids as many times as you like by going here over the length of any player being auctioned.
Ideally, you'd put the highest bid you're willing to pay and then the site will autobid for you up to that amount.
-
Hey GL,
Yes I believe you put them up for auction and then go ahead and place a bid on them as well. Someone can clarify that if I am incorrect. Good draft last night all, very entertaining should be a fun season!

When I nominate a player for an auction, do I then need to go in and submit a bid for him as well? Or is it automatically assigning me a $1 bid?

Draft Time!!!!!!!!
-
Hour and a half reminder for the draft tonight...
-
The draft room is available and open if anyone wants to peek at the set up before this evening.
-
I have another draft on Monday so if we could finish Sunday, I'm all for it. Still open to splitting it up if we need to but looking forward to the best part of fantasy...drafting!
-
ATL here…Bama fan (ducks a barrage of flying objects)…my other half is a Georgia Bulldog, so, yeah…Red Sox and Braves fan for MLB.
-
So a couple of things, I was pretty sure the terms agreement said "till death do us part" so I am here for the long haul.... Also I am in Georgia but am a Vols fan... our entire existence is moonshine and whisky so I will be plenty prepped for the draft. Woooooo Give me Ben Joyce and Todd Helton!

So I’m in San Diego - SDSU in the elite 8 tomorrow at 11.. just enough time to sober up for the draft…
-
I plan on staying for a good long while. I can’t speak for anyone else but I agree. This is more of a dynasty setup. If someone’s circumstances changes and they need to leave, we will find a replacement manager for that team and keep on truckin. I originally came to Ottoneu as a replacement manager and am still in that other league in addition to this one.
-
lol. That's good to hear. Funny bc I just did the Universal Studies tram tour yesterday with the F and F cast.
-
I can speak for a few people here but we want this league to be an ongoing league for years to come. "You all are family" (Vin Diesel voice)

This is my first Ottoneau league. This is probably a dumb question, but are folks here planning to be in this league for multi-years? I don't think that people would join an O league with the plan on just playing one year, but I could be wrong.
