I prefer condensing all my anxiety into a live draft, but I know how hard scheduling is and don't feel super strongly about it

I’m good with a slow draft, I agree it worked well last year. Really either option works for me.

My opinion would be to go with a slow draft again. Worked well this past year. Open to suggestions, but it's hard to get 12 strangers on the same page. I can definitely post a calendar with options again and see if any time slot works. Will probably not happen until early February though. Most don't know their March schedule at this point anyways.

Are we thinking we’ll try the slow draft again or go back to a traditional draft?

I've got an owner for wham bam.

Duck Chop Suey and Wham Bam are both available. They've been abandoned, so your friend can sign up directly from the Ottoneu league search page.

Guys if you'll have me i'd like to stay in the league. The last 6 months have been extraordinary. I can submit arbitration today.

3 days left on Arbitration - we only have 5 submitted. Please get these in.

Less than a week left for arbitration. Hope everyone that's still around can participate if you haven't yet, should make the league better as a whole.

Hi Commish and owners, congrats to the winners, wanted to say it's been a pleasure playing with all of you this season. Got way too many leagues and cannot maintain the rythm (time consuming and $$$). So I won't be renewing many of my leagues like this one, got some talent to attract new owner for next year so you should be able to quickly fill vacancy. have a good arb and a great future season! Thanks Commish for great work
-
Congrats on a great win TBD! Also big shout out to Barry's and 4 Days, I hung for a while but my guys ran out of steam there at the end.
This is a fun, competitive league but I'm going to have to cut back on my fantasy commitments so I won't be back next year. I can stick around if you need me for arb.

wow, what a race for 3rd! and congrats TBD on back to back titles, guess having a team name is not a key to success 😂

If anyone is into fantasy hockey - I run a league that has 3 spots open. It's a dynasty league that mimics Ottoneu as much as possible ($400 - big rosters - etc). Let me know if interested. Auction next Sunday. It's going into year 2 and all the teams that are open have great keeper options.

Trading older/expensive guys since deadline is coming up. Looking for younger/cheaper talent.
-
Updated trade block heading to the deadline. Willing to move out almost anyone with salary. Lots of competition for the top 3 spots, so let me know if you have future value available.

My team is fine, but probably not good enough to push into a money spot so I’ve put pretty well every player on the trade block. Looking for young/cheap/good players for next season.

Have some really top level bullpen arms if anyone in contention is looking for some big point IP heading home. Willing to retain their salary to turn them into young guys.

Willing to retain much of (all of, if needed) Julio's contract to send to a contender. Want a premium, young asset back.

Why would a guy go for $7 when they could’ve been claimed for $5 two days earlier?

Looking for a solid outfielder and I have some cap space so I could take a larger contract if needed

It seems reasonable to me that the commissioner reach out to players who have an illegal roster for more than 24 hours, which is the length of our trade waiting period.

@4 days -- I wasn't concerned about the state of anyone's roster at the moment. I was just raising a general question as to what we want our league policy to be. The Ottoneu policy, as I cited, is overly strict, IMO. Under that policy, you would need to have an open roster spot even to re-auction your players, which seems unreasonable.

Oh no
-
Correct. That is what you're doing. The other people are discussing things. Just because you don't like those discussions doesn't mean they shouldn't happen. So again, either add to the conversation or stfu. Otherwise, you'll be blocked from the board.

There's is no conversation. It's just bitching about nothing

The board is there for people to discuss things. Not to bitch about people discussing things. If you don't like it, turn off notifications. Otherwise, quietly read and move on. Whining about it does nothing to further any conversations.
GF Chaunceys on

Please, and I say this with the utmost respect, shut up. You're adding nothing to the conversation.

And just like that there is nothing to bitch about. What's next?
-
I’ve also got Luis Garcia who should be on 60 day, but hasn’t been placed on anything yet. He is expected back in the second half of the season, so I’m waiting on his designation as well. Should I wait to bid on auctions until I have clarity on that? Nothing I’ve read gives any detail other than “is on track to return in the second half of the 2024 season”
-
Sorry about going over roster limit. I won an auction yesterday afternoon and was waiting to see what IL Walker Beuhler would go on. Dodgers had been vague if it was delayed start ie August or June on Beuhler. They put him on 15 day, so I’ve got my answer.
-
If we choose to do so at our discretion, that is.

Very well — Rule I.c states, “At no time shall a team willingly go over roster and salary cap limits. If a team knowingly does this, they will face penalties at the discretion of their league's commissioner.” There is no mention of a grace period, so it sounds like you are suggesting that the other commissioner and I devise some arbitrary punishment and impose said punishment on the two teams that are currently in violation of this rule?
PNW Sailors on

Thinking to yourself is a good thing. As co commissioner why don't you remind the league of the rules. Cut and paste. The rules aren't going to change. So don't ask how we are going to handle that situation when the rules are pretty clear about exactly how it's handled.
-
@Whine — there is a penalty, but there is also a platform-wide guideline/policy which recommends that players try not to have an illegal roster any longer than is absolutely necessary.
PNW Sailors on

When I see an illegal roster, I think to myself, “Hey, have we adequately ensured that everyone is familiar with how the league handles illegal rosters?” and, perhaps more importantly, “Do we have a clear policy on how to handle illegal rosters?“
PNW Sailors on

I’m not being critical of anyone in particular, I’m just trying to establish rules/norms that we can apply to the upcoming season. That is, after all, kind of the commissioner’s job (co-commissioner, in this case) — to facilitate the development, dissemination, and enforcement of league policies.

The other 'illegal' roster is waiting for a trade to be processed. There is penalty for having an illegal roster, right? That owner can't make any roster moves until it's cleared up. So...let's just follow the rules instead of seeing aliens. Deep breaths.
