Most importantly: Start time is 9 EASTERN tonight.
-
Draft is tonight! If we get near-full participation and everyone near-fills out their full rosters, I think 3 hours is a reasonable amount of time to complete it, but I'll be staying with it till the bitter end tonight. Two things that can really help save time: 1. Have 2-3 guys in your queue ready to nominate (and remember that when it's your turn you have to enter an opening bid to start the auction). 2. When you're done, check the box that says so at the bottom of your draft window.
-
Awesome. Thanks Exponentials!
-
Good work! Thanks!
-
Here is the full list: Kershaw, Josh Donaldson, Jean Segura, Altuve, Giancarlo Stanton, Rusney Castillo, CJ Cron, Joc Pederson, Alex Cobb, Jose Abreu, Brian McCann, Kluber
-
There is no easy way that I know of. I just went to people's rosters and clicked on all of the people who looked undervalued. Eventually you find the one that says RFA beside it.
-
Is there a way to see who all the rfa's are?
-
Ha. I may be a noob, but perhaps I will hang on to him. Just want to make sure I can count on that happening
-
Stanton is the RFA for Target Practice. He will be in the draft but TP gets $5 off. The same way donaldson will be in the draft byt the exponentials get $5 back if they draft him. Rendon is just a keeper, not sure why he is not on your cut page but I think you should do your best to figure out why and cut him.
-
I'm the commissioner in another league that uses the vote-off and those players are bolded and the salaries show in red. It must be a glitch specific to this league.
-
They are not free agents. They are restricted free agents. They are in the draft pool, but the original owner gets $5 off.
-
OK I emailed Ottoneu support asking about this situation, and the larger question of why our voted-off guys are not yet appearing as free agents. In Roster Organizer, if you see a player name highlighted in red, that's the guy who was voted off your team last offseason. For example, mine is Josh Donaldson. Unfortunately he's not yet showing up as a free agent, and from what I can tell that's the case with everyone's "free agents." Will let everyone know when Ottoneu gets back to me.
-
Will look into this tomorrow morning. This past offseason we still had the vote off system in place, but that wouldn't explain two players not being visible. We will get this sorted out.
-
Alright....so I guess I'm back to wondering about both :)
-
Sorry to correct you Nellies but we don't use the vote off system in this league-it's allocation.
-
Ok, thanks. Anyone know what happened to rendon?
-
Im not sure about Rendon. Stanton isnt "cuttable" because he was already voted off of your team at the end of last season. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
-
Out of curiosity, not that I wany to cut them, but can anyone tell me why when I go to my cut page it doesn't show Stanton and Rendon as options there? They do show as on my roster on the team page.
-
Commish, if you end up needing to replace one of the non-renwers, let me know. I think I have somebody.
-
Look a like I have one chance to cut a batch of players with no penalty. Will take care of that in the next day or so. I think I mostly have a handle on the rest. at least enough for now.
-
Welcome aboard, TP!
-
Hey new Target Practice -- welcome. If you want to cut any players ahead of the draft, get in touch with me. League -- we still have a few players who need to renew, so please check and do that. We've got a full league now and I'm looking forward to draft day.
-
Welcome to the league! We draft on the 20th so, we dont have very long but, if you have any questions Id be glad to help.
-
Hey all. Just claimed target practice. Long time fantasy player, first time ottoneu manager. Looking forward to the challenge.
-
I'll ask some friends.
-
Still looking for an owner to claim Target Practice. If you know anyone or have heard anyone looking to join, now's the time to chime in.
-
That seems like it's brag-worthy!
-
On a related note, we met Matt Kemp yesterday and we got lost in his eyes. He maybhave eclipsed the sun.
-
I think he may be mute. He didn't talk at all. But, he did smile for a picture with my son, which was cool.
-
Nice! What was he like? Did he eclipse the sun?
-
My son and I met Mike Trout today. Just wanted to brag. ;)
-
We gonna have all of the owners in time for the draft?
-
Yeah I haven't heard anything from Target Practice, so I'm going to mark that as an abandoned team. I'll do that tomorrow morning.
-
Do we need a replacement owner?
-
I've emailed a few times in the last two months and haven't gotten a response. Let me see what I can do.
-
Do we know if Target Practice is going to be around for this season?
-
Reminder: With draft day set, make sure you're paid up through Ottoneu to "renew" your team for this season. Also, for the new league members: Is everybody clear on how the scoring works (Fangraph points)? Take a look at the rules page ahead of the draft, and if you have questions I'll work to get em answered. Play ball ... soonish.
-
Woo-hoo! We have a date! Time to start studying.
-
I will be on a plane on the 20th, so I will not be joining the draft on that date.

OK, votes are essentially even, so I'm casting the tiebreaker for Friday March 20 at 9 Eastern/8 Central/6 Pacific. I know it's not going to be 100 percent convenient for everyone, but hopefully it's good enough.
-
Any idea when the draft might be yet?
-
West Texas Nellies's trade block has been updated!
-
Can do either the 20th or 27th but only evening-6:00 PDT or later. I've been in leagues with both vote-off and allocation. I believe either is workable but only if everyone participates. This is especially important with allocation.
-
I'm for allocation. As far as the draft, 20th is first preference, followed by 27th

All right, let's finalize draft time. Need to hear from the remaining few owners on the proposed dates ASAP. Thanks
-
Prefer March 27th. Could do the 20th. Prefer a start time of 6pm EST or later. All for making the change to allocation.

No March 20. Yes March 27. Alt March 13
-
Spaceman - definitely thinking of the evening for draft time. I'm on Central time, so I'm thinking 8 Easter, 7 Central, 6 Mountain, 5 Pacific. That's flexible of course -- holler if it doesn't work for you.
-
With allocation you have $25 that you can use to increase the salary of players on other teams. That way you make guys more expensive for other owners to keep. From your $25, you can't allocate more than $3 to any one team. The total money allocation is in addition to the $1/$2 automatic offseason salary increase.
