It was open for 48 hours.

How did the auction for Singer end already? Arenβt they all supposed to be open for 48 hours?
-
Anyone looking to get some trades done?
-
Yes, that's true... however who has the cap space to add an $11 salary?
-
@54 Percenters, my understanding is that if someone else picks up the player it provides further salary relief for you, but I'm not sure on exactly how the math functions.
-
The key takeaway for me is that you can't work the waiver wire like yahoo or espn. Interestingly trades seem much more important ...
-
If you drop a player and someone else picks them up, do they take on the salary then? So it would be off your books? Or is it still just 50% regardless?
-
My understanding is that cutting a player saves you 50% of the contract, rounded up. So cutting a $1 player would save you 50 cents, but the remaining 50 cents rounds you up to the $1 again, saving nothing. So you'd need to cut someone worth $2 or more, or make a trade.

You have a lot to learn biloxi. Sometimes itβs best to stay off the board catch your breath and learn by experience.
-
Ok, to all those new to Ottoneu (like me) do not put yourself in a position where you are trying to free up cap space by cutting $1 players... the cap penalty just puts you in a deeper hole. I love learning experiences.
-
Every player I cut adds to my cap limit so I can't get my roster to be valid. I'm at a total loss here. Please help!
-
I'm just happy to have traded away the 2017 Houston Asterisks* I unfortunately needed in the draft. Let the good karma come in.
-
Wow. Really fair trade. Approved, 100%.
-
Explain to me why you would overbid on the auction then immediately release the player on waivers?
-
Last place to start season. The Hit Men will rally!
-
My understanding is that if you put a player in a starting position (like the 2nd catcher spot), his stats count. BUT it also counts against the max # of games per position for any given position.
Therefore, if you start 2 catchers and get 2 games of stats, you also count 2 games against the max of 162 for that position.
You can find where it each position currently stands for games played at the bottom of your Lineups page
-
Do any of the experienced ottoneu players understand how the two catcher spots work in lineups? My understanding from the rules page is only one of the two slots scores per day and they have the two there so it's easier to manage when one is sitting out. But on days both play, how do you know which will count?
-
Thanks! Looks like Gerrit has yet to be put on the 60-day.
-
Looks like they automatically qualify for the 60 day IL and it gives you an extra spot on your 40 man roster. Like right now I have 41 spots because deGrom auto-qualified for the 60 day IL
-
Hey all, does anybody know how to put a player on 60-day IL?
-
Draft room is open: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/1674/draft

Where do we go to join the auction once it starts
-
Yes, it is dynasty, so after each off-season you will select as many of your players as desired to be kept.
-
My assumption is this is a keeper format .... right?
-
It's almost time. Let the last minute draft board tinkering begin.
-
Good to have you!
