I was going to wait a few more days, but yeah, I should probably try and get in touch with everyone. If anyone joins us after the deadline, I can manually remove their nonkeepers with no penalty.
-
Commish, do you have a way of checking that everyone is coming back? If we need to replace anyone, it should ideally be done before the keeper deadline.
-
It'll happen automatically. I wouldn't drop him because it might screw up the $5 discount you get if you win him again. Of course if everything gets messed up I can just fix it all by hand, but that's not ideal.
-
Yep, all is good. So, now that Kemp has been removed from my team (curses) do I drop him or is that automatically done?

Welcome back, Orange. I hope you were successful in keeping your job.
-
Oh, good to see you back, Orange. I was afraid I'd been in last place among people who were sticking with this. :)
-
Checking again. My apologies for my extended absence while I was fighting for my tenure.

Pillar of Teeth's trading block has been updated!
-
Barring a preseason injury, I'm keeping Pujols at $69. Anaheim isn't as tough on righties as St. Louis. He's available in trade, though.
-
Carlos Perez's K-Dance's trading block has been updated!
-
There is no formal setting of keepers: whoever is left on your roster on January 31 is a keeper. After that cap penalties start again, though you get two free cuts before the auction. Position eligibility is updated.

Queen, I definitely would have voted for Wainwright before Strasburg, but Lawrie at $5 in an MI position was too tempting for me.
-
RE: Strasburg/Lawrie... honestly, I don't know if people didn't look that far down or they don't trust him after TJ, but Wainwright at 9?? That could work out well.
-
It's glitchy for me but if I move it on and off it seems to figure it out.
-
Congrats Virgin on having the most players receive a vote... seems like that would be a good sign. Also, anyone get that hover feature to work?
-
Interesting vote. Generally like the results.

Oh, there's no confirmation on cutting so don't run your own tests.
-
As I just demonstrated with Heath Bell, you can cut people now with no cap penalty. I don't know if our "keepers" are everyone we don't cut or if we manually indicate those at some point.
-
Results posted. Lost Upton like I expected, but surprised Pineda was close. Would have preferred that. Shocked Strasburg-16 beat out Lawrie-5, and Bautista-37 beat Ellsbury-7.
-
Voted!

Ok, got my arbi votes in. Pretty interested in seeing how those all turn out.
-
Just went over this Fish, there shouldn't be a penalty now, but there's no reason to cut anyone until after arbitration voting is over. We'll sort it then.
-
Not sure if it's a quirk to the system, but when I attempt to cut players, it tells me that there's a cap penalty that comes with it. I thought we were in the penalty-free zone?

(If you got him for $1 before last year, which we obviously didn't have)
-
Skull, don't forget that you get a $5 discount on the final auction price of a player if you lost him through arbitration. I do think it's necessary, imagine Bautista at $5 for next year?
-
i like ALL the rules of ottoneu, extremely thorough! Major dislike for arbitration voting.
-
Probably. Not much point to dropping anyone before arbitration voting is over though.
-
thats what i thought, but when i went to do it, it said i was going to have penalties. is that just an error in the message, then?
-
No, you can cut without penalty until February 1, the Keeper Deadline.
-
did i miss my chance to cut players without penalty?
-
It doesn't look like position eligibility has been updated yet, so keep that in mind for arbitration voting.
-
Player prices have been adjusted for next year. Arbitration voting deadline is November 1.
-
Thank you guys...fun year, hope to do it again
-
Thanks to all for a great year (and for the props, I'll take finishing 2nd since I lingered in 6th and 7th so long!). This is such a cool league, look forward to keeping it going & the craziness of the offseason
-
Congrats Dirt Dogs! (and K-Dance, too)
-
It's official, congratulations to Dirt Dogs!
-
Congratulations, Dirt Dog! Also props to K-Dance for his late-season surge into second place. This was the most competitive fantasy baseball league that I've ever been in. It was a fun season!

I was amazed too. I was about to pick him up and then he got traded away from Seattle, and I was like "nah... he won't be as good without SafeCo..."
-
I am stunned that Fister was on the wire all year. That's 12 fails right there.
-
I would really like to finish 11th. C'mon, guys, let's pass Orange Crush!
-
Agreed! Mighty fine job, Dirt Dogs.

Wow! Dirt Dogs is dominating all of us. This lead looks insurmountable at this point.
-
I think it's time to reiterate just how stupid I was to abandon hope for this year as early as I did.
-
Yes, from now on. I thought if you didn't bid, and someone else did, they would get it at the minimum price, but I guess it's $1 more than that.
-
I'm not sure I follow - if you start an auction, you are bidding $1 or the minimum bid even if you forget to place a bid amount. Right?
-
Leagues suggests, and I agree, not to raise Bradley and Anderson up to where they were, but not to make the change in the future. I'm going to except Span, since I'm not bidding on him either, but after that we'll have to play by the rules.
-
Leagues says it's working as intended. The system thinks I "forgot" to bid when I started the auction, so it enters an invisible $5 bid for me. When Skull came in at $10, it gave it to him at $6.
-
Did it again, bumping Anderson down to $5 for Skullet and sending a note to Leagues
