No rush, but Empty is there any way to import rosters for the 10 teams that have joined before the last 2 do? Just for fun, but if can’t be until all have joined, that’s ok. Thanks

Couch Managers Auction has been created!
https://www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/index.php?auction_id=724
Please join, password: 2024, ASAP using your team name so I can import the rosters and clean up any potential discrepancies there might be. Thanks everyone and please feel free to let me know if you have any questions!
-
The votes are in! We are kicking off the slow draft on February 19! I will get the draft room set up on couch managers this afternoon so everyone has plenty of time to log in and join. A reminder that EVERYONE must join and be in the auction before we can start so please let me know if you have any troubles logging in. Also please set your name on Couch Managers to match your team name here in the league so I can more easily import the rosters when we're all done. Thanks all, excited to draft!

You are correct in your assumption Commish

9 votes in and moving the start of the draft up to 2/19 still in the lead but not the majority, I'm assuming Papi, you're indifferent as you've only got 2 spots and $3 so that leaves two of you who we haven't heard from. If you don't want to jump on Slack please let me know here which start date you prefer: 3/4 or 2/19.
-
We have currently 7 votes on the slack poll for when to start the slow draft and moving it up to February 19th is currently the leader, if you'd like to make your voice heard please go vote before the end of tomorrow or let me know here on the message board. Either way I'd like to get this on the books in the next 36ish hours. Thanks everyone!
-
If anyone has any questions or grievances as always please feel free to reach out. That being said I scheduled the slow auction to start on March 4th because that is the week we did it last year but! since we're not a start-up this year I presume there will be less prep so if enough folks want to get it started earlier I'm more than happy to do that, in fact I probably prefer it personally especially with the early Seoul series this year! I'll set up a poll on Slack right now! Thanks

Hey all, I'm going to give AKA Big Papi a penalty free cut to get legal before the draft. He made a flurry of trades and miscalculated the salary math....it could happen to the best of us, and I would prefer that everyone be legal before we start the draft. Obviously this is a one time exception but I genuinely believe this was not a malicious decision and I think anyone who has played with Papi will agree. I'll have him get with me and we'll get that player in the FA pool and his roster legal.

Keeper and Renewal Deadline today fellas! Good luck with all your decisions and can't wait for real baseball to start soon!

Nice trades guys, especially Cole for Harris is neat

Just a quick reminder that there is only about two more weeks to re-up your league dues for 2024, we still need about half the league to do so, so please do so at your earliest convenience. Thanks!

Hi all. I’m looking for a manager to take over a 16-team H2H non-Ottoneu dynasty team on Yahoo. It’s a fun competitive league that’s been running for 9 years. $40 entry with a unique payout structure that spreads the wealth. If you want to hear more send me a message!

Eight trades in the same league in about 90 minutes or less, got to be a record....lol Thanks for the action, building for 2025, so had to let go big pieces in Wheeler, Garcia, Jung, Greene, Yelich and Suzuki. Now I hope I didn't miscalculate the $$$ coming in versus going out. Hey that was fun!

Okay! We full 🎉🎉
I have the start date for the start of the Couch Managers slow auction for March 4th, 12pm eastern. I believe that was most agreeable time last year so unless there’s some objections let’s stick with it, enough time to plan and enough time before the season.
I’ll create the auction and import rosters after the keeper deadline and share the auction room as soon as I get that done. Excited for another season! Always feel free to hit me up with any questi

Hey everyone, still trying to get someone to fill the empty spot left by Lourdes. If you know anyone in any of your leagues or maybe even someone who would be new to Ottoneu who might be interested in this league let me know, I'd love to be able to get this spot filled up before the keeper deadline...Thanks and looking forward to another great season!!
-
Hey everyone Lourdes has informed me that he has to step away from fantasy baseball for the time being so that roster is available if anyone knows someone who would like to join the league! I've posted on the forum and slack but personal recruitment sometimes works too! Thanks
-
Last day of arbitration everyone! Then we're back live for cuts and trades just in time for the holiday season.
-
One more team advertisement.
Got an opening in a $100 5x5 if you're looking to get that category fix. Great league that just had probably its best season competition wise. Team is available to claim on the claim a team page.

Requiem for a shift arbitration - Hey requiem it shows you’ve allocated all of your arbitration dollars, but you’re still on RED, which I’m guessing means you didn’t allocate at least $1 to every team. Just fyi. I think you need to do that for your arb to be valid

Just fyi there is an opening in a $20 SABR Points league I'm in that also does a slow draft every year, here's the link to the roster if you're interested!

Little preweekend Arbitration reminder. Just 4 days left to get it done!
-
Hey all, one more week of arbitration left, so lets make sure we get that done before the deadline. Excited to get things fired back up again!! Also I'm open to discussion but some brief commentary on the Slack channel would suggest that we are going to remain a slow draft league, as long as there's no opposition I'll go ahead and make that part of the league description.
-
Hope all is well with everyone. Just wanted to shoot out a reminder that Paydala is now live and renewal for the 2024 season is available. Never hurts to re-up asap to help drive long term commitment in the league, obviously the renewal deadline isn’t until 1/31 but it’s always nice to see a good chunk of the league ready for the next season by the time arb is over. Paydala was pretty seemless and easy but let me know if you have any issues.

Please welcome Paul the new manager of what was Balco Babies and is now Diamond Dogs!

Division Series Six Picks is live! A little fantasy fix until arbitration rolls around.

Congrats Techwood on a great season!

Early congrats to Techwood Jackets on the inaugural championship! What a great season everyone, looking forward to some playoff ball and then onto Arbitration and the offseason! Please let me know if you plan to not return next year so I can start working on replacements. I think we had some excellent engagement this season and I’m looking forward to the future of this league. Thanks everyone!

Thanks for running a super fun league this year commish. I am excited for arbitration and keepers this offseason. Congrats to those in the running for the $!

Hey everyone! Just a couple reminders: first, auctions must be started by Friday night at 11:59 pm ET - after that, they shut down for the off-season. Second make sure your roster is legal when we hit the off-season. Being over 40 players/$400 is fine based on loans and 60-day IL guys, but if you win auctions this week, please still make the appropriate cuts.

@ $12 for Schanuel, wow! Lol

That’s a BIG MAN trade. Nice work guys
-
Haha no don’t be better, you should keep it up it’s the smart thing to do! I just found it funny with that slip up
-
CR - Fair enough point. Though, I only remembered that tactic recently ... so I haven't been able to do that for every single bid. :) I'll be better from here on out.
-
Thanks all. I appreciate the flexibility.
-
Lol. I definitely agree it was an honest mistake from FCU and nice of you to let him off the hook for it. Would be kind of funny if he got stuck with it though as he’s price enforcing every single bid on players he doesn’t want. I’d do the same if I were in 1st it’s smart, but would be a nice bit of karma if he got stuck wasting money after making us waste it too☺️ .but nice call on your part commish and def an honest mistake I’m sure
-
I'm aware of the ramifications of this move and fully believe they'll be immaterial in the grand scheme of things so I hope everyone is okay with this decision, if not please feel free to reach out and let me know I'm always happy to try and discuss. Hopefully we can just move on and continue to have a great season. Thanks all!
-
FCU informed me immediately after the Oscar Gonzales auction ended that their $3 bid was a total accident and that they only intended to bid the minimum $2 but winning the auction has now put them in that lovely cap hell situation I'm sure anyone who's played Ottoneu has been in before lol. I'm inclined to believe in honest mistakes and am going to correct this with a cap free cut, accidents happen and I would hope that a commish would understand if it was my mistake.
-
Thank you, Empty Flight! I upped my bid a couple of times today too. It helped to get the cash from Hoskins and Diaz.
-
I spent a lot of time today trying to figure out what my max Bibee bid could be without tearing apart my roster, was really hoping $7 would be enough lol nice work Dukes

I definitely meant to put Adolis in the lineup yesterday. 🤣🤣🤣
