Chase Burns has looked good in first pro-ball starts this year. If anyone is interested in trading and waiting on his debut, let me know. Don't know that I can roster him if injuries keep it up at the rate they have been!

We love how the coin flip wins for us when it was someone we really didn't want. We would have lost if it was someone we desired, haha.

lol

I'm in the best shape of my life.

Draft this weekend!

And apologies for the spam
-
Thanks for understanding everyone!
-
March 2 at 4p Pacific works for me for the draft (the prior message was concerning the cuts).
-
Good by me.
-
All good with me!
-
No issue

No issue here. Figured it had to be something for someone that long-standing in the league to miss the deadline.
-
Cool with me.
-
Hey everyone, I had an unexpected emergency yesterday and was unable to make my cuts in time. Please let me know if you'd allow me to make my cuts today. I had 22 guys targeted to be cut in my Roster Organizer. If anyone has an issue I completely understand. Thanks.
-
We're all done for the offseason. We weren't going to cut Jac, but we went with the prospect cuts because we're followers. Thanks to everyone for a fun offseason! It's our favorite part of Ottoneu. Good luck at the auction!
-
I’d prefer Monday the 3rd but I can make Sunday the 2nd work if that’s everyone’s choice. Thanks!
-
I meant Sunday March 2
-
Sunday March 3 works for me
-
That date should be good with us! Does not conflict any potential other draft dates as of now either.
-
Putting a date out there: Sunday, March 2nd. 4PM Pacific / 7PM Eastern. If this does not work, the next day I'd propose is the next day Monday, March 3rd.

Don’t forget to renew your teams by January 31

I figure it's not too early to start thinking about a draft date. Here is a sheet similar to last year's:

Happy New Year, everyone! Not going to lie, we're a little bummed that we haven't traded anyone from our trade block yet in 2025. We have offers out there, we're just waiting on you. Please help us celebrate the New Year while only being slightly hungover.
-
Please feel free to send us trade offers as I'm tipsy at a 2. Bundesliga match and my drag of a co-owner is sleeping. I'll send some out too!
-
Arbitration ends in 2 weeks, seven teams still need to do it.
-
Hell of a surge in the final week. Congrats!
-
So many little things add up when it's that close. I picked up Lordes Gurriel on 9/13. Started him 3 games and he happened to put up 43 points in those three games.

My co-owner and I learned a lesson earlier this season: friends don't let friends roster Civale and Romero. Sorry to hear that those two killed you on the 21st, LT.
-
And a note on Coastal's well-balanced team: Aside from the MI spot (6th), Coastal's performance (P/G or P/IP) was 4th best or better at every other position.
C - 2nd
1B - 2nd
2B - 3rd
SS - 4th
MI - 6th
3B - 4th
OF - 4th
Util - 2nd
SP - 3rd
RP - 4th

Sept 21st, the Equinox, stands out as a key date for me. 13 innings pitched and my pitchers surrender 8 home runs, for a whopping -38 points. Even a 3 P/IP day from them would have yielded a ~77 point swing and a much closer finish. Oh well.

Congratulations, Coastal! Remarkable comeback!
-
Thanks. 7th place in mid June, lost Acuna for the year, and was ready to rebuild. Decided to take a shot at third. Never thought I could get to first.

Yes, congrats Coastal! An incredible surge in the second half of the season. I appreciate how close our finishes in this league have been recently. Looking forward to next year already!

Congratulations on the victory, Coastal Empire! A pretty epic comeback made possible by your pitching staff. We can't wait for a full offseason with our team. Great season, everyone!
-
Also, a reminder that arbitration will begin a couple weeks after the regular season ends and runs for a couple weeks itself. So don't tune out just because the games end!

There’s a double header on Monday, so technically these auctions will be still done in season. I believe you can’t start any once they would end after the season. Rules still apply though

Hey everyone, seeing a lot of auctions that are set to process after the season is over. Friendly reminder about roster and salary cap limit rules: https://ottoneu.fangraphs.com/rules#:~:text=At%20no%20time%20shall%20a%20team%20willingly%20go%20over%20roster%20and%20salary%20cap%20limits.%20If%20a%20team%20knowingly%20does%20this%2C%20they%20will%20face%20penalties%20at%20the%20discretion%20of%20their%20league%27s%20commissioner
-
Who would have thought that Michael McGreevey (who we didn't know was a real person until Monday) would be so desired? N. Martinez probably needed some higher bids. 😉
-
We hope it stays that way after how poorly they treated Rich Hill!
-
2nd half swoons are kind of their thing, lately.
-
The way the Red Sox have been playing lately, they probably should designate more people for assignment before Rich Hill!
-
We've been big time Rich Hill believers since the early 2000's. We are super happy that we can get him to boost our RP staff. I mean, he's probably better than Sam Moll.
-
Rich Hill??

Bauer is a complete scumbag and we would never roster him either, but he was never arrested or charged with a crime so he is a bit different than the others. I'm happy that his baseball career looks to be only confined to Mexico and hopefully it never progresses further than that.
-
Surprised Trevor Bauer's name isn't included in these statements.
-
We would personally never want Ozuna or A. Chapman (or others like that) on our Ottoneu teams for their past DV experience. While DV is abhorrent and totally wrong, there could maybe be some ambiguity (even if my co-owner and I are more black and white about it), but that's not the case here with this Wander Franco situation from what has been reported at this point. God willing, he never plays in the majors again and goes the way of Felipe Vazquez.
-
Somebody on here might be more of a casual fan that enjoys playing and is just not looped in. Maybe they auctioned the wrong guy. Weird things happen sometimes.
-
Not sure what the motivations are but the dude is never playing MLB again.
-
Yea, I'm not sure how I feel about situations like this. Ottoneu does give leagues the option to add players to a restricted list if they want certain players to be ineligible for rostering. I tend to default to the systems in place (legal and MLB) but inevitably those systems can be flawed too. DV is obviously different than sexual exploitation of a minor, but I assume his DV stigma is the reason a guy like Marcel Ozuna has an average Ottoneu cost of $5.
