When you complete the survey, please try and select as many dates/time slots as you can be available for. This gives us the best chance of finding a time that works for all. Thanks!

I have created a poll to find a time that an auction works the best for the most teams. Please take a moment to select your preferred date and times. https://doodle.com/meeting/participate/id/vbmgAjOe

What's the plan for a draft date? We've got about 3 and a half weeks until Opening Day

I guess we have to wait right? a lot of the FA's values will change depending on where they land. No one wants to over pay for someone when they didn't need to.
-
Do we want to go ahead and set an auction, or do we want to wait longer for a new CBA and more free agency to resolve?

I haven’t set a draft yet. We can start discussing, but I figured it better to wait until we have more clarity on the season’s start. There are so many free agents left that it feels like very incomplete info for the auction.

I think it’s just a slow moving time right now. The lockout really saps the energy.

sorry to all about bringing in the last owner. I didn't realize he wasn't going to pay his dues so my apologies for the inconvenience.
-
Czech Mate messaged me that he would like to abandon and move on. There have been some life complications that are preventing running the team. Does anyone have a prospective owner that would be interested before I abandon the team and open it for the public?
-
We don't currently have a Slack channel. I'm open to one...how many here are using Slack or at least monitor the Ottoneu Slack?
Also, welcome to our new owner Chris who has taken over Not a Cat.

Hey there, just claimed Rotor City, I'm an original member of this league who saw the openings and figured I would come back to my first ever league. Excited to be playing SABR points again!

Unless there are any objections, I have not heard from Not a Cat and will abandon his team.

Rotor has asked that his team be abandoned. Rotor was an original member of the league and had been here for 10 years I think. Good luck to him!

I at least want to propose that we abandon Not a Cat, who was absent from arb and does not seem to be actively looking at this team. The others have been logging in but for some reason did not complete arb. I have asked each for a firm commitment.

About half of our owners have been here for 5+ years, and this has been an excellent league for 10+ years. We want to make sure it continues to be, which is why I want to come up with a plan to deal with the inactivity or possible intentional choice to miss arbitration. We need everyone involved as much as possible.

wow, thats not a good sign. well which ever route you guys do decide to take it would be helpful if it was sooner rather then later so that the owners who are still interested in competing could find another league to settle in with.
-
So we haven't dealt with arb specifically with this. However, given how many it is, I don't know it bodes well for us this off-season.

We haven't had this much of an issue on arbitration, no.

has this been a consistent issue over the last few years? how have you handled it in the past?
-
Alright folks, we had five teams not allocate. Our league has seen some downturn in activity over the last couple of years, and I'd like to see that change. How do we want to handle teams that did not allocate?
Sototally Baty on

Last call for arbitration. Fyi, for those who do not allocate, I will be putting a recommendation to the league that we find different owners. This is a critical part of the season, and there is plenty of time to make these allocations.

I've allocated, thank you for the reminder. Leaning towards abandoning this team, COVID-19 really impacted my lifestyle and I realize a lot of my engagement with Fantasy Baseball was filling the little breaks in the office-centric working day. Now that I'm working from home it's not as good a fit, and I was fairly inactive in 2021. I'll decide in the next couple weeks. I've appreciated playing with you these past years.

Welcome to our new owner, Roger Dorn! We are glad to have you in the league. As a reminder, arbitration ends Nov. 14th. Please make sure to complete this. It is imperative that everyone participates to help with competitive balance!

hey all, super pumped to enter the league and excited to get things rolling. good luck to all

Wettest of the Spitball Brigade is not returning next year. If anyone has an owner they know of who would be interested, please reach out. I will hold the team for a bit to see if we can get someone. If not, I'll abandon it.

There are always point corrections at years end after official scoring changes

Congrats to both BOHICA & The Usual Suspects on the great season and for being #20 and #21 on the overall leader board for SABR points in Ottoneu.
-
Congrats to Bohica for championship and to Suspects and Charlie making podium. Thanks for great job Commishes, hope we get exciting baseball in the next month and a half
-
Congrats on a great, fun season everyone! Especially to the champ, Bohica. He has been chasing me for months and finally passed me on the final day
-
Anyone here doing a fantasy basketball league?
-
LeagueI created in $20 Ottoneu Fantasy Football league called Dingleberry Circus. It is Flex (WR/RB/TE) + Superflex (QB/WR/RB/TE), 1 PPR, 1 division, top 6 make the playoffs. Draft is 9/7 @ 8:30 PM EST. Come join the party!! https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/football/invite?invite=eyJMZWFndWVJRCI6MTk0LCJJbnZpdGVySUQiOiIxMzEzOTgifQ==

I would say, he keeps his roster as it is but we will have to rule next year on this so we don't go thru the same discussions
-
and that the draft room would be open for him (and others at the end), somebody wanted to stay or come back, they could keep money and do it, if not well they couldn't say anything about it. My problem is inconsistency about this strategy in Ottoneu, some leagues allow you to do what Bohica did but some don't so maybe that's what brings a little frustration, but no big thing (though I see almost all of those 1$ picks are already on block to attract fans and get some bigger players or cash).
-
I agree that he didn't get elite players with the free shopping at the end but a couple of them I would of maybe auction like Lucchesi. For sure if we had known that we could purchase 1$ players without competition at the end of the draft, some us couls of kept somme $$ to do so. The real transparency woulf of been to tell us all that Bohica would be in and out because of birthday party......
-
I don’t understand the complaint. Are we mad the BOHICA was able to add a bunch of scraps at the end of the draft? That’s a legitimate draft strategy and I don’t have a problem with it.
-
Im voting to leave his roster as is.. no need to cut
-
And again, as Spitball says, these guys are not exactly cream of the crop guys. They are the $1 waiver guys and roster fills. Additionally, everyone had the opportunity to add them for $1 yesterday, and none of us nominated them. This does not seem to be a strategy to gain an advantage, but if a majority feel so, we'll adjust.
-
BOHICA let me know that he was unlikely to be able to be present during the auction, at least consistently, the day that we announced the date/time. He indicated he would try to make as much as he could but would likely be limited to coming in late. Given that auctions are dynamic and can last 3 hours or 6, it would be hard to plan to scoop up $1 guys IMO.
-
I don’t know if I appreciate it being insinuated i did something dirty. I mean the last 10 or so guys I added are straight bottom of the barrel roster fillers I will likely cut at some point. As long as I’ll get my money back I’ll go through the auction process if need be but would be shocked if I don’t end up with the same roster essentially
