will this league continue? so many are stepping away
-
Congrat's Winnetka. I couldnt catch up.
-
I’ll be back next year, and while I might not go worst-to-first, I’ll do my best. Ottoneu’s hot stove season helps keep baseball going through the long, cold upstate NY winters. Go Red Sox!
-
Thanks everyone and sorry to see you go. Everyone's situation is different, but Vin I had three toddlers at once, quite awhile ago, and I needed fantasy sports more than ever back then to just escape reality.
-
Hey guys, after thinking things over, I’ve decided to cut back from 10 to a more manageable number of Otto teams. Thanks for having me! I think I left the team in good shape. Best wishes! Feel free to abandon my team.
-
Congrats to Winnetka's win + dominance. I enjoyed this year as well, sniffed 3rd & 2nd even at one point, but alas ended up in 5th. I, too, am stepping away from Ottoneu for some time (job change + toddler will do that to you). Happy to stick around through arb and what not if needed though to keep the competitive balance going! Thanks all!
-
Congrats to Winnetka as well! Have really enjoyed being involved in this active league. Now is a time I am planning to step back from a few of my dynasty leagues, and am requesting my team be posted up for a new owner.
Wishing everyone going well going forward, and hoping that everyone enjoys October baseball. Thanks!!!

Congrats Winnettka!
-
Gift?!!! Eloy Jimenez and Wander Franco were part of the early in the year trade that included a $25 loan. For players that he just won in the auction. I would dare to say that Spa City is fairly happy with that trade. $94 in net loans on the year is relatively low for a competitive team. There is a team in one of my other leagues that has taken in $406 in net loans.

I’ll keep that in mind next year. But I had no chance this year, so why not trade for future value?
-
Maybe don't gift someone 94$ in extra roster early in the season and it will be competitive
-
With Winnetka up by 2,100 points, it seems safe to say Congratulations! for winning the ‘21 title.
-
Fairhaven had previously cut them, which set them to a minimum auction price of half their previous salary. 30+ days past without anyone else auctioning them, so he was able to auction them himself at the new lower price. He cut them again, so now his roster penalty is half of what it was before. Just a way of managing roster penalties and cap space.
-
what just happened with those guys: Rosenthal, Keuchel, etc?
-
yup, that was it. It's set up so that the penalty free cuts must be made all in one initial cut window rather than individually. No worries, I got it corrected.
-
That's odd. Did you cut all your players at once, or did you make multiple cuts? ( I can fix it shortly )
-
That's weird. Seems like you shouldn't have. Maybe Moose or Winnetka can help?
-
I have cap penalties on my rosters page for 5 guys I dropped on July 26th, when I thought I wouldn't get penalties?
-
you will only get a game played if they get a PA or come in as a pinch runner (i believe). defensive replacements that don't contribute offensively will not count as far as i'm aware. and lineups lock 5 minutes before start time.
-
nope, unless he gets in the game. then it will. "auto bench" will boot anyone with an X out of your lineup once that players game starts. When off. once it starts, you can't pull them from the lineup or replace them and may accrue a game played, as I said, if they get into the game.
-
Do you get a Game Played if your player doesn’t actually play but is in your lineup? My experience comes from Fantrax where you actually don’t get a Game in that case
-
Welcome to the lee. Trade me all your good players so I can make a run at first
-
Welcome to the league!
-
Yes, that's right. Welcome!
-
it looks like I can release who I want with no penalty in one big batch because I'm a new owner...is that correct?
-
I play OOTP Baseball in the offseason. Baseball is the only sport I follow. If you hvae any rules Q's feel free to ask. Welcome again
-
hey guys, new owner here. I've never played Ottoneu but had an eye on it for years and actually have created a soccer league based on some of the concepts...I've played pro baseball, am an OOTP addict and now have fantasy teams in 5 different sports. Hope to turn this around and get a full handle on all the rules instantly

We have a new owner all! should be taking over today.
-
Greetz all. SpaHa pointed out to me that PTBNL has been non active for sometime and has now not responded to msgs. I put up a posting for a new owner yesterday and have a reply. If you know of someone let me know ASAP. I'm going to wait until tomorrow before I assign the team out to a possible new owner. ~A
-
And fxxk Davey Roberts, catering to his overpriced "superstar".
-
Mookie Betts sucks. So overrated. I hate him.
-
Is anybody interested in trading for minor leaguers? I have too many. I’ll list available players on my trade block. This far out of contention, the game is boring without some trade talks.
-
Pederson needs to be platooned. But he is probably worth $10.

-
damn, maybe I should have held onto Pederson, he's hit 2 homers tonight after I cut him.
-
sooooo you selling then?
O_O
-
Woof... Soto, Bellinger and Voit out for extended time. Acuna was even out for a week. And now maybe Degrom. Been a tough year for the Spitballers.
-
Yes. Certainly a notable performance. Worthy of an honorable (?) mention. Seems like Seth Lugo hung up a minus 70 something in a 2019 start. Does anyone remember?
-
@Yadier - have you forgotten about my -53.70 from Patrick Corbin in 2 IP? pretty close.
-
Mayers and Kela made for a terrific one-two punch out of the bullpen for me today. Minus 32 and minus 23 for one total inning of work. Let's see some SP beat that.
-
JDM belongs on a contender, not an 11th place team. If you are in the race, why not go for a title when you have a chance? Teams that stash prospects while ostensibly trying to win usually wind up in a boring 4th place finish. No difference between 4th place and 11th. Who not add JDM while you still have time?
-
@Flying Squirrels - nice pitching day!! In my ESPN H2H points league, my opponent this week has Plesac AND Musgrove too - only he had them both on the bench today :-)
-
Let's play ball y'all!
-
Never bothered to figure out the badges either.
-
I have never figured out the badges. I probably earned a few that I have not claimed.
-
So they both get one! What about Kjerstad? Seems like there should be one in there for him too
-
Free Lunch
Request this badge when you've successfully traded away or received a player in trade for nothing (or cap space only).
-
Which one gets the badge?
-
That trade gets a "Free Lunch" badge if you are collecting them.
