@RIme" Khris Davis enters the chate and states it’s “just weird” to finish at .247 for the fourth year in a row. “I guess it was meant to be"
-
Heh, I didn't realize Roki Sasaki's $32 salary was the exact same as Yamamoto, Nola, and Glasnow. $32 is just "as much as a pitcher can cost" in this league, apparently. That's why Castillo and Cole had to be cut.
-
Great draft everyone! Trading, cutting, starting auctions should be available. If you already have someone on IL60 or had to leave the draft early, you may already have openings for an add without a cut.
-
The more the merrier... the fewer, the better chances to sneak sleepers through. It's a tradeoff.
-
I’ll be late so don’t wait for me to start, I don’t have much budget anyway
-
…I was about to hit the gym but now I am gonna drink beer and draft baseball players!
-
thanks for the reminder @Rime!!
-
Heh, we scheduled our draft at the exact same time as NCAA Selection Sunday, didn’t we? Well, baseball first.
-
And I just caught up on Alejandro Rosario too! Wasn't expecting a contribution this year, but still :(
-
At least Gerrit Cole had the excellent manners to entirely blow out his elbow *prior* to our auction draft...

Maybe I'll have better luck with pitchers than last year? (*checks Luis Gil's news page*)

Praying that no more players get hurt

One week until the draft y’all!

Wow, they said there were concerns about Luka's conditioning, but I didn't realize he'd let himself go to that extent

Winner, winner, beer's for dinner...

St. CGT V no more expects Fast Sugar back than the Mavericks expect Doncic to return one day as a free agent.

Sources report that the Saint is interested in bringing back Diaz on a $1 deal, but the two sides are far apart.
-
Alright, that's 5 approvals of March 16 at 6 pm EDT (I said Standard Time before, but just looked up that the time change happens on 3/9), and it works for me as well. Can still be changed if there is an uproar and a fix that works for everyone, but let's put it there on our calendars!
-
Fine, I’ll do it.
-
16th works for me, too.
-
I prefer the 16th despite Saint suggesting it.

Extra weight to Saint's preference out of respect for the champ. Less weight because they can only take six $1 players.

Good with any

Sunday the 16th at 6 EST/3 PST.

And that's a wrap on our January proceedings! (pending the clearing of my last two trades). Next up, let's schedule that draft. MLB regular season starts with the Tokyo series on March 18-19, so I propose either Sunday the 9th or Sunday the 16th of March, maybe around 5 or 6 EST / 2 or 3 PST. Any preferences?
-
Thanks as always to Fast Sugar Diaz for his fine bullpen services. Contract re-negotiations didn't pan out, so...

10 minutes!
-
I remember when we had a series of deals shipping Juan Nicasio around the league and then the last team dropped him.
-
It sounds like a design flaw that it's even possible to cut players included in approved trades.
-
There are at least 3 of us. Maybe you weren’t going to keep who you traded away either, and were just doing another team a solid because they asked nicely?
-
Yeah, thanks for pointing that out, Rime. At first I was going to make a joke at my expense, but the shame was too much. So much for hoping nobody would notice.

Glad to see I'm not the only one who cut a guy I traded for this offseason. News and expectations can change!
-
You can still make trades today, but if you change your mind on a guy you got, you will NOT be able to cut him after it goes through after 24 hours. All cuts due before midnight tonight (9 pm PST).
-
Good news everyone! All 12 of us are paid up for 2025, and 8/12 teams are under the salary cap. I trust the remaining 4 will do so by tomorrow night by 11:59 pm EST (not PST, I made that mistake before). Everyone else decide on any last trades or cuts, and then let's set up our draft day! A Sunday afternoon in mid-March has been our usual time, so check your calendars and comment or DM me any days that won't work?
-
Alrighty, fellows. I'm late to the party, but I've updated my trade block. If any of these guys interest you, please let me know. With maybe one or two less notable exceptions, if I can't trade them, I will keep them. Cheers!
-
I've got no room for an $8 Giancarlo or a $7 Joc because of my unicorn DH, but surely someone can use that kind of power at that kind of price?
-
One week left! Got all my valuations done (well, always in progress, but at least one set of values) and updated my trade block. Interested in any guys, message me and I will look at your team too.
-
Hey all, friendly reminder that there are 10 days left to renew your team (and do trades/cuts). As of right now, 6 teams still need to renew. Do it before 1/31!
To do it (as I just tested): Go to Ottoneu logo at the top left, go to Dashboard, on right where it says "Paid through (2025)" click "Extend Now", do the Paydala stuff.
If anyone is not coming back, let me know ahead of time. I do have a friend who wants in, and I could then give him a few da

Polar Bear 🐻❄️ on the block… who needs a power hitting 1B - tho - he is costly, but willing to deal him cheap!
-
got rid of the riff raff and open for business!!!
-
who put $3 on my MOISES BALLESTEROS :-) you’re not getting a Christmas card haha
-
EVERYONE is available except for: Betts, Tatis, Alonso, Altuve and Regans who are on lock… offer up!
-
Everybody did the thing! High fives all around!
-
I just sent an email, but if anyone knows Klugman or Smoak personally, check in and see if they're doing arbitration / definitely coming back? My in-ottoneu messages to them from a week ago have gone unread.
-
Thank you! You spewed out some great possible future team names.

Not that I was planning keeping him regardless. I just hate irresponsible stupidity.
-
What kind of a clueless douchbag arbs an oft injured already overpriced post prospect? Yes I'm trolling. For idiots.
-
Two weeks left in Arbitration! Good job by the four teams that have completed it; everyone else please don't forget. You can change your values all the way up to the Nov. 14th deadline. Maybe do it by Tuesday in case the US erupts into an apocalypic civil war after that - then at least you can rest easy knowing you made Gunnar Henderson or whoever $1 more costly.
-
Be on the lookout for salary increases, and then please get on the site between Oct. 15 and Nov. 15 to do arbitration raises. Those players on your rivals' teams deserve money!
