Snell for a prospect? Send your offers for the guy that'll probably have a dominant second half. ~ Hops

Hey All: Trying to get an Ottoneu "Six Picks" going. It's free and you should check it out if you haven't. (Another way to kill some time). https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/sixpicks/invite?code=eyJJbnZpdGVyVXNlcklEIjoiMTcwMDEwIiwiR3JvdXBJRCI6ODF9

Congrats! Good to "be king".
-
STOP THE COUNT!!! Or at least let me take a picture while I'm still ahead 😭

“I wonder how many home runs I would have hit with a torpedo bat?” - “Big Sexy” Bartolo Colon. Tweet of the year?
-
Glad you are on the other side of it Biloxi. Prayers for continued recovery my friend.
So glad baseball is back! So thankful to be back in the fantasy game for the first time in a few years.
-
So glad you're back Biloxi!

Oh man sorry to hear that Biloxi but glad you're doing ok! Also, absolutely love the poetry Hopsmackers
-
Seems I picked the wrong week to have bypass surgery.... well I made it through alive.
-
Incredible work, Hopsmackers! So glad we made it to Opening day!
-
Happy Opening Day Everyone!
-
Twas the Night Before Opening Day,
In the garage sat a new corvette,
Everyone just couldn’t stop talking,
About all that weight loss for Mookie Betts.
“Does Bartolo Colon (FA) still pitch?”
Everyone wanted to know.
“Does Soto ($63) like New York?”
David Stearns and Steve Cohen hope so.
-
Is Nacho Alvarez ($1) his real name,
Is Baseball still America’s game?
Will the Vegas A’s have all the “good luck”?
Did Giancarlo Stanton ($3) or Luis Robert ($22) get hit by a truck?
And while the Cubs won’t be any good,
The winning ways in Pittsburgh will be all about Paul Skenes ($24),
The Nationals team won’t be “political”,
As the Phillies “Rage Against Machines”
-
Yes, Logan Gilbert ($34) lead the league in innings,
But Cole Irvin (FA) started the most games,
We all may make some trades,
Seeing Kyle Tucker ($56) on the Cubs won’t be the same.
All the big names are ready, Ohtani ($72) and Olson ($46), and Snell ($27)
Burnes ($30), Goldy ($6), Nico Hoener ($13), and Vlad ($46)
Freedie Freeman ($38) hopes to play well,
As we dream of awesome dollar dude pick-ups that make us glad.
-
May your pitching hit your innings limit,
May your home runs come in bunches,
Keep your eye on MLB TV,
Especially as you do your crunches.
Because your team may not win,
And your stolen bases may never get found,
But baseball is back baby!
It’s time again for that crack-on-the-bat sound.
Good luck this season!

My mistake $16... cutting roster in this format is BRUTAL
-
Look on the bright side, you freed up $33 of CAP....
-
Hit Men and season-ending surgery for our ace before St. Patrick's Day. Name a more sychronous relationship.
-
lost my connection
-
Yeah, nothing on my end that would prevent you from being in
-
Different browser, incognito tab, anything like that
-
You show me as paid ?
-
Someone recommended clearing your cache
-
Well this sucks
-
I logged out and back in but I still get the error message
-
Strange, most of us are in there now, not sure what could be causing that
-
I'm getting an "Error cannot connect to server" message
-
Select "Auction Draft" in the top banner, under the league name and to the left of "Standings". That launches the draft interface!
-
When is the draft app open?
-
Welcome! Cool story

Welcome to the league, Hopsmackers! That's awesome, Niv seems like a cool guy
-
Also, fun fact about me: I met Niv once. I was in DC to see the Brewers play the Nationals (I'm a big Brewers fan- I live in Milwaukee) and I bumped into him. It was like meeting Taylor Swift for me :)
-
Hi All: Caught the "fantasy bug" hard this year and I just grabbed this team. Any chance I can make 2 or 3 more penalty-free cuts?
-
Additionally, the owner for RangerNation isn't communicating and hasn't paid, so I will be making his team available for a new owner. With his roster at 36/40, it would be hard to get an owner to take the team, so I will use commissioner powers to cut bad contracts (players with very low ownership percentages and/or their salary is well above the Ottoneu avg for this league type). I have consulted with a few other owners so it isn't unilateral but I have to move fast to get a new owner.
-
Based on the survey, Saturday, March 1 works best for all parties. I will get it set up to start in the middle of the day. I expect it to be about 3 hours, but could be more, so plan accordingly.
-
Please complete the Google form at this link to show your availability for drafting. I will circle back with the top handful of dates to select the final date and time. Thanks!

Have we thought about a draft date yet?

Hey all, just took over this team. From a quick look at prior messages and message board history, it seems the bar shouldn't be too high for me to be considered an upgrade from the previous owner. I'm active and enjoy trade talk, so shoot me a message if you're interested in making a deal.
-
The Manfred Fred Burger team that was inactive all of last season has a new owner! He's stoked about the league and should be an active participant. I also made the other team available to the general public to pick up today and will continue searching for an owner
-
We should be good! The formerly NYS and Baserun Bandits team will need a new owner and will replace the inactive Manfred Fred Burger. Have two guys I'm in touch with that are likely to work out, and if not should be able to fill by making them publicly available spots.
-
How do we look for a full league for next year?
-
Ok gents, two days left to get your arbitrations in. We have 5 teams who need to put in their allotment! That's almost half the league! This is the best way to ensure parity and it, seriously, can only take you fifteen minutes. It's only as complicated a process as you want it to be. We're a competitive league, so we should have everyone in this arbitration pool. The water is fine. You won't need an attorney. Promise.
-
Well that changes things a bit...lol
-
Hi Biloxi, the Arbitration system is an either/or. So it's either the allocations method or the vote off method. Our league is structured with the allocations. :)
-
Don't forget the:
Vote Off
The vote-off system gives each team in the league the ability to vote on a player on each other team.
The player that receives the most votes collectively on each team is turned into a restricted free agent that can be bid on by other teams during the auction draft.
In the case of a tie, the standings of all the relevant voting teams is examined. Whichever player has the team with the worst standings voting for them is the restricted free agent.
-
Congratulations to the Commish on his title! I just want to post a reminder that arbitration ends in two weeks. This is best opportunity to preserve competitive balance for all. I've alreay done mine. It's an easy process that took all of fifteen minutes. Happy Halloween, everyone. May you all snare an Elvira in your web.
-
Hi all, note that October 15th is the start of off-season roster changes! It is called "Arbitration" and will allow each Owner to add dollars to players on other Owners' teams.
-
Thank you! I owe it all to Shohei.
-
Dominant season Bartolo. Congratulations to you!
