• welcome welcome! congrats O'clyde and look forward to a fun offseason!

  Balls In Play on October 9, 2022 7:54 PM

• Welcome to our two new owners (of SkyDog and Friars Forever). Glad to have a full league before arbitration starts next Saturday!

  Zeezils on October 9, 2022 7:28 PM

• Good evening guys. I just claimed Friars Forever. Say hello to Long Gone. I'm new to the 4x4 format and looking forward to the challenge of turning this team around.

  Long Gone on October 9, 2022 7:28 PM

• Hi all, I just claimed SkyDog off the available teams page--I assume/hope it was available? Anyhow, excited to try the 4x4 format.

  ARGYLE SOX on October 9, 2022 5:22 PM

• Thanks guys! I felt like I spent the whole summer trying to chase down Columbus and I never count out Zeezils. It was a fun race and my team had some good luck with health.
  I look forward to trying for the repeat next year.

  Friends O'Clyde on October 6, 2022 12:15 PM

• Congrats Clyde! You really dominated on the pitching side!

  Corn Cobb TV on October 6, 2022 9:00 AM

• Congratulations to Friends O'Clyde for taking home the trophy this year! A completely dominating pitching staff, bolstered by a big July trade, and continued active roster management throughout the season led to their second title in six years. They started slow, but raced up the standings in June and July. From then on, it was a back and forth with the Columbus Baby Bears for the league lead; only seizing the lead for good on September 25. It was a great race and a job well done!

• Trade block updated… Hader and Bichette available

  Butch Bando on August 9, 2022 7:50 AM

• Looking to upgrade at 2b/middle infield. Willing to move prospects or pcs that help a rebuilding team. Message me if interested

  Butch Bando on July 7, 2022 1:03 PM

• I'm looking to move Freddy Peralta before the end of the weekend - send me your offers!

  Big Papi memories on May 27, 2022 8:55 AM

• Lol! It started off as a pretty straightforward 3-for-3 swap and things kind of snowballed from there. What I can I say - you have to make your own entertainment down at this end of the league!

  Big Papi memories on May 24, 2022 4:29 AM

• Seems like we had another big trade earlier this season with maybe 10 players involved but 16 players has to be a record!

  The Artist formerly known as Taco on May 23, 2022 5:37 PM

• Haha, never seen a trade quite like that one!

  Zeezils on May 23, 2022 5:15 PM

• lol y'all swapping rosters. that's fun

  Balls In Play on May 23, 2022 4:08 PM

• Auction starts in 20 minutes!

  Zeezils on March 29, 2022 8:11 PM

• REMINDER - Auction is TOMORROW at 8:30 pm Eastern!

  Zeezils on March 28, 2022 12:33 PM

• The auction is Tuesday, March 29 at 8:30 pm ET which was the night with the widest availability (an unfortunately low 8 of 11 responses). If you are not able to make it, there are some options such as getting a friend to do it or by going on the Ottoneu community site and seeking a proxy to bid for you. There are people out there who actually do this - they find it fun and informative. Let me know if this is something you'd like to pursue. Fourteen days until auction and 23 until real baseball!

  Zeezils on March 14, 2022 12:29 PM

• If you need to edit, just submit a new response. I'll delete the first one.

  Zeezils on March 11, 2022 2:47 PM

• hey, wasn't sure how to edit my submission but i'm good with any of those dates/times. thanks and excited baseball is back!

  Balls In Play on March 11, 2022 2:39 PM

• Update on the auction - we have 7 respondents so far, 0 days of 100% availability, and only 3 days with availability for 6 out of the 7 (Sat 3/19, Tue 3/22, and Tue 3/29). If you have yet to fill this out, please give extra flexibility to those dates as they are the front-runners. But be flexible in general! I think current respondents can also edit their responses if things change.

  Zeezils on March 11, 2022 9:13 AM

• All right! Psyched we are getting 162! Thanks for setting up the poll Z, I've added my availability.

  Corn Cobb TV on March 10, 2022 4:39 PM

• Hell yeah! I just sent out a league-wide message regarding the free agent auction, so check your email. The most important point is that you need to fill out your auction availability ASAP. I'd like to get this set soon. Here is the link: https://forms.gle/Avwbw3Fb3CjdETxj8

  Zeezils on March 10, 2022 4:25 PM

• BASEBALL!

  Finding Nimmo on March 10, 2022 3:40 PM

• First two series cancelled :(

  Clase Closed on March 1, 2022 8:03 PM

• We will wait to schedule the auction until there is some clarity on the season. I will send out a scheduling link when that time comes. So, until then, there is really zero to do here. Thus, we end one of the best parts of the fantasy season and enter the worst. See you all on the other side, whenever that may be...

  Zeezils on February 17, 2022 9:30 AM

• Agreed

  Finding Nimmo on February 17, 2022 9:21 AM

• Agree to wait

  Butch Bando on February 17, 2022 7:23 AM

• The deadline is usually January 31. It was delayed until February 15, which was yesterday. Rosters are locked between now and the auction.

  Zeezils on February 16, 2022 11:07 PM

• Due to lockout, Ottoneu Fantasy Baseball keeper deadline delayed. That is right at the top of the page yet my roster is locked?

  ARGYLE SOX on February 16, 2022 9:57 PM

• I'd prefer to wait as well... sorry I have been off the grid lately. My wife had surgery than a week later our whole family came down with Covid.

  ARGYLE SOX on February 16, 2022 7:05 PM

• I'd prefer to wait as well.

  Friends O'Clyde on February 16, 2022 5:51 PM

• Waiting definitely sounds like the best strategy. We all have too much invested in our rosters to be bidding on players with such uncertainty surrounding them right now.

  The Artist formerly known as Taco on February 16, 2022 5:50 PM

• I think waiting is good plan. It's too hard right now to properly value MLB free agents - and there'll be plenty of trades to come too.

  Big Papi memories on February 16, 2022 3:05 PM

• Now that keepers are locked, we set our sights on the auction draft. This league typically aims to hold the auction in mid-March, given an MLB Opening Day of roughly April 1. But with a delayed start inevitable, I think we ought to shoot for a later draft so that we can make bids k with better information on FA landing spots, injuries, etc. At this point, I am inclined to wait to even schedule the auction until there is some idea of when the season might start.

  Zeezils on February 16, 2022 2:44 PM

• Keeper deadline is in 4 hours. Rosters must be legal by that time (after accounting for any trades that are agreed to prior to the deadline).

  Zeezils on February 15, 2022 8:05 PM

• Hey all - just a reminder that the keeper deadline is February 15 at 11:59 pm Eastern. That is next Tuesday. At that point, rosters will need to be in compliance with cap rules, are locked until the auction draft, and all cuts will incur the standard cap penalty. So, get your last-minute trades in! But of course, with the lockout, Ottoneu may extend the keeper deadline. It is shown in the teal bar on the league home page. What an offseason for this league; nice job everyone!

  Zeezils on February 7, 2022 10:23 AM

• Yep all good on my end with his new salary. Thanks!

  Balls In Play on January 26, 2022 1:15 PM

• I just adjusted the salaries per Arlen's allocations. For Pablo Lopez, the salary adjustment is showing up as a "move", but I think that's a mistake and is somehow pulling in that he was traded to Optimistic Fantasy a couple weeks ago. I believe current ownership and salary is correct for him. Please verify and point out if you think I've made any errors. That finally wraps up arbitration for this offseason!

  Zeezils on January 26, 2022 12:56 PM

• Arb allocations: Ohtani (Columbus) -3, Soto (Zeez) - 3 , Ray (Clyde) - 3, Tork (Bando) - 1, Winker (Skydog) - 3, Julio Urias (14th St) - 1, Pablo Lopez (Optimistic) - 3, Kelenic (Taco) - 1, Vlad Jr (Friars) - 3, Marte (Skulls) - 1, Trout (Schmohawks) - 3

  Clase Closed on January 23, 2022 3:00 PM

• PSA: Make sure you renew your team by paying your dues by January 31! I see that about a third of us have paid.

  Zeezils on January 20, 2022 11:23 AM

• Trade block updated.. Cole added…

  Butch Bando on January 20, 2022 7:02 AM

• Welcome to the new owner of Abandoned!

  Zeezils on January 17, 2022 9:16 AM

• I had to boot Abandoned since he hasn't logged back in since the day he claimed the team and hasn't answered emaails. So, still looking to fill the league. Also, given the lockout, the Ottoneu cut deadline has been moved to Feb 15. You can see this at the top of every page. Nice offseason everyone! So. Many. Trades.

  Zeezils on January 15, 2022 7:29 PM

• I've sent him a direct email. Hope he's still in.

  Zeezils on January 13, 2022 12:16 PM

• Possibly... Abandoned hasn't logged in since taking over his team on 1/5 though. Can you give him a nudge, Zach, and check he's still up for it?

  Big Papi memories on January 13, 2022 3:42 AM

• Looks like we've got a full house fellas! Welcome to the Arlen Longhorns. The previous owner didn't make arbitration allocations, so you get to. Post them here when you're ready, just like some other teams did last week. Let me know if you're new to Ottoneu or otherwise have any questions. Glad to have you.

  Zeezils on January 12, 2022 11:04 PM

• Hey everyone, I like to see an active league, looking forward to the season whenever it starts!

  Clase Closed on January 12, 2022 10:32 PM

• Apparently Optimistic felt he needed to make some big changes! Love it!

  Corn Cobb TV on January 7, 2022 10:10 AM

• wow! It's a trading Orgy up in here!

  ARGYLE SOX on January 7, 2022 10:06 AM

• I vow to endeavor to preserve in 22!
