sounds good, thanks! if he wants the team, it’d be good if we could switch it over before arbitration starts.

One of the owners in Chuck and my rotisserie league was the one interested. I am sure Chuck can check in with him to see if he still is

Just to follow up, I think it's just very difficult to take over a team in a long standing dynasty-esque league like this. No one ever leaves a good team behind! In Ottoneu it was further compounded by never fully knowing or understanding the complicated rules. I guess that's on me to an extent, but I'd advise maybe that you give the next owner a bit more guidance than I was given, on rules as well as strategy.

Hey all, I just wanted to let you all know that I am likely going to leave the league after this season. I apologize for being one-and-done, but I'm just not sure this league is for me. If I'm being honest, Ottoneu requires a pretty steep learning curve, and I felt like maybe I could've used a bit more hand holding along the way. I hate losing, and it's really frustrating to lose in part because I felt like I didn't know the rules etc. Thanks for giving me a shot!

you can possibly make a run at my beloved IP record: 1,531 in 2019.

If you hadn't noticed, I hate the "soft cap" on innings pitched. It's screwed me at least 2 yrs in a row.
-
How did I miss getting an SF starter on my final day of pitching? I have Gausman, Webb, Wood, Tony Disco, and a soon to be irrelevant, Cueto.
-
Mets reshuffled their rotation deck on me last night. Megill isn't going. I only have 4. Earlier, the Giants screwed me by moving Wood (46 pts) from tonight to last night. I think you got this WAR even with Brett Anderson pitching against you.
-
Big day today--Framber's pitchers will either lock it up for him, lock it up for me, or ensure that we go down to the wire. Brett Anderson helped me close it out on the last day of the season last year. Hopefully he remembers that I paid him $19 for one start, and he's only getting $2 from Framber.
-
thanks—i’m a little slow on the uptake these days.

Yes that corrected it. I now have $1 less budget. Thx Dave
-
ok, just changed Kiner-Falefa’s cap penalty to $2. does that take care of it?

Three waiver claims on the same guy, that just never happens. And for Kitteridge, no less.
-
The pennant race is close, but the real question is this: Will a 4th team claim Kittredge on waivers in the space of a couple weeks?
-
Please add $1 to Falefa's salary

I think of this song every time i set my lineup and see aaron ashby's name. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xVXdsHBKu_E

Rostering all the Luis Garcias > collecting the dumb action figures that the (grown-up) kids are into now.
-
Haha. At this point we can call him a hoarder since he also has Luis Arraez and Luis Torrens.
-
I’m going to be really upset if one of you outbids Cronenworthy for the third Luis Garcia

True story: Two minutes prior to the end of the Gonsolin auction, I raised my bid from $8 to $10. Everyone in this league is completely insane and I relish being one of its lunatics.

Welp, we've also reached the "start Merrill Kelly against the Dodgers" portion of the year

Welp, we've reached the "start Luke Weaver against the Dodgers" portion of the year

Well, I'll state the obvious. Right now I have a 200 point lead but am a 100 combined gms & ip's ahead of WAR. Assuming he nets a bare minimum 4.0 pts per gm or ip that I'm ahead of pace on, that would mean he'll end up 200 points ahead of me at the end. That's assuming all other variables stay the same. Right now he's the clear favorite to repeat as champion. The alternative is for my guys to overperform and his to underperform or Mounty to mount the greatest comeback of all.
-
I had two catchers and they played every third day. I pick up a third catcher and all three turn into iron man.
-
Guess I should have picked up Brad Miller, as a defensive move instead. Thought my season was over until I checked and saw WAR hadn't started him.
-
Full circle. Dropped young Jasson at $6 for OPL reasons. Reacquired him for $6 now that OPL is over.
-
Yup, Jeimer $1 has been an excellent 1B/3B this year. And he'll lose 1B eligibility next yr
-
Don’t forget Jeimer!
-
Yeah, Machado and Brian Anderson.
-
That's 2 marquis 3B-only guys that WAR will have next yr.
-
Here goes the merry-go-round...
-
(or I'll just make a cut now)
-
Whoops. On that note, D'Arnaud should be $5. That will make my roster illegal, I'll fix it by tomorrow
-
done, thanks

Please raise Herrera's salary to $2

Congratulations on a great run in the OPL, Rusty! And good luck to all the contenders down the stretch!

I have a couple injured stars with high salaries. Let me know if you might be interested in keeping Trout at $76 or Hoskins at $32 and we can likely work something out. Depending on the deal, I am not opposed to chipping in some money this year to make the cap math work.
-
Any contenders looking for RP? I'll move Hendriks and Pressly for keepable talent.
-
If anyone has a high salaried guy who is still productive but likely not a keeper on 1/31, hit me up. I might be interested. We have 24 hours to make a deal.
-
And I'm finally out. Big day for my opponent. Beat me by 100 pts. The only thing that might have saved me was if I had acquired Patrick Wisdom instead of Gavin Sheets on 7/13. Fun experience nonetheless. Now to try to win a championship in this league. Gonna be tough.
-
OPL update: 2 points ahead going into the final day of games. No Ohtani or Walsh tho as they have a weird Sunday day off.
-
Good luck Rusty! Regardless of how it turns out, you’ve had an incredible run.

OPL update: That 180 pt lead is gone. Now behind by 16 pts. If I'm lucky, it probably gets decided Sunday night and I squeak by.
-
OPL midpoint quarterfinal match update: 180 points up, not bad but far from clinched. My opponent has a good roster and may make up that gap.
-
For anyone with extra cap space looking for a keeper, I would trade Nick Madrigal (salary of $2, keepable at $4) for a $9 loan. He's on the 60 day IL, so won't require a roster spot until after the season.
-
Factoring in my team being ahead of pace in ip and OF gms alone, WAR and I are effectively tied in the standings.
-
In my primary fantasy football league there's a guy who named his team Fertile because he has four daughters. Thinking of borrowing the name for my roster since in the past month five of my players have hit the paternity list: Garver, Muncy, Pressly, Verdugo and, as of today, Gomber. At least I'm winning at something.
