Clueless Cal here...sorry in advance for the ignorance...with regards to the previous few posts, what are we discussing here? I know I'm relatively knew to Fangraphs, and the Ottoneu formats...not sure what Scarecrow and Tebow, were talking about. Can someone explain? Thanks, sorry. Also, has there ever been an APP for phones for Fangraphs/Ottoneu? Would me nice. I now you can get the website through Safari on your phone, just be nice to have the ease/format of an app. Anyhow.

I don't care enough about it to whine about it to anyone but my fellow team owners

Tony, you may want to either reach out to Niv via email or post over on the Community under Wishlist. I did a quick search on the latter; the only thing I could find was in relation to Ottoneu Football and predates, by almost five years, the recent enhancement to Fangraphs.

A wise man said to me recently that it's possible we will have enough time for Otto cap hits for drops/bad draft choices to fully minimize before the season ever gets started

While I'm sure we're all as eager as Tony is to draft, it's still three weeks away. Seems we'll get some more interesting information to consider as the hot stove keeps cooking, along with the brutal winter weather here on the east coast. Also here to prompt laggards such as myself that you/we have another day and a half to make penalty free cuts before we go into a three week deep freeze.

Can we just draft today? I feel more enthusiastic about fucking it up now than I do in 3 weeks, I think...

Happy Friday everyone! Open to adding some salary before the auction if anyones still over the cap. One week left to the deadline!

So, I logged on to make dick jokes about the Mets former GM and here I find you all took my prompt in earnest. Trades piling up like disregarded text messages... no pics guys, please. That aside, we have half the league paid and about 10 days until the twin keeper and renewal deadlines. The stove it is hot, we're drafting in about a month, life may be good again.

Three notes: 1) I've set a preliminary draft date per below, for 1pm on Feb 20. 2) The keeper deadline is now two weeks away, so bear that in mind while we all await add'l thawing of the FA market. 3) The renewal deadline for your team coincides with the keeper deadline; some of you have already settled up, and the rest of you will want to take of care that soon as well. Lastly, just want to say the intermittent trades and transactions have been interesting and informative and do carry on.

FYI and FWIW, MLB has scheduled the start of spring training for Feb 27. If everyone's on board for another pre-ST auction, we will likely aim for Feb 20-21 (prior drafts have generally been held on a weekend but it's not set in stone).

Earlier the better, prefer weeknights but ok with anything

Happy New Year everyone! Re Mike's suggestion, I'm not opposed to setting a date though we may want to bear in mind that there's an odds on chance of some delay and complication due to labor strife and other economic factors. We auctioned early (Feb 16, pre-ST) last year for the first time and it seemed to go well despite the eventual interminable wait for the 2020 season. Please post up with your thoughts / no-go dates and let's see if we can set something up.

Either way, the Mashers trading desk will remain open over the holiday weekend!

Indeed, it's a bizarro world parody of James Brown... Tony is a trades machine. Me, I felt the need for a blockbuster in the spirit of my own rooting interest's pending trade of a superstar whose contract they are no longer willing to pay. And never were, bc it's the Dolans. Cheap greedy bastards.

Howdy all, happy to be joining the league. Anyone is available in trade as I try to remake this squad. Reach out via IM, or send an offer. Any reasonable offer will be considered, but please nothing crazy :). Looking forward to an active fun league!

...and seeing as I failed to announce it, we do have a an additional open team to fill (Tom's previously monickered Sticky McSchnickens); please forward prospective owners if you know of any.

Happy Thanksgiving, Firehouse. We've managed to acquire an owner for Miguel's Griffey Forever squad (and of whom I'll prompt to introduce themselves as they see fit), but still need someone to take over the remaining open team with the decidedly less sexy roster. Please carry on with business as usual as we await whatever additional heat the stove provides, though it may not be much given the owners' clearly meager financial standing. Clearly.

The trading window will be open soon enough, and that should be somewhat novel given the decisions MLB teams will be making on free agency amidst an uncertain financial environment for the member clubs. If anyone else is bowing out, please follow Miguel's lead and let me know sooner than later so we can work on finding a replacement. If you have any questions, reach out here on the board or via email.

Hope you are all enjoying this bubbled postseason, and can take in some of these penultimate or ultimate games over the next 48. Those due prizes should have received them quite a while ago; if you did not then let me know if you need help claiming that. As per Paul's email prompt, do get your arb allocations set by 11/14 (set them now, if possible; you can always log back in to change them as needed). Recall you must allocate the full $25 for any of them to count.

Thank you for generous notice Miguel, and sorry to see you go. If you have anyone you can refer in that would be splendid; if not, please do set arbitration before you head out and we will work to find a replacement ASAP. If any of the assembled have someone they would like to bring aboard, please let me or Paul know.

Hi all.
Sad to say that I am going to bow out from this league. Covid cases back up, and that impacts my life in too many ways. Won't have time for a proper offseason in a league as contested as this one. I can do arbitration if you'd need me to, but please do find a replacement for me at the earliest.
Good luck everyone.

...and why not give NFBC some free advertising while I'm at it. They do a postseason contest, it's fun, haven't seen it done elsewhere. Have a look, maybe enter, you'll be playing against people much better than me so maybe not. Link if you like: https://nfc.shgn.com/rules_new/448

Also here to congratulate Andy on his superlative performance in Firehouse Roto this year. He's one of the longstanding owners, nice to see it come together this time around. Plaudits also to newcomer Kevin, not quite newcomer Tony, and my usual nemesis Josh (who I congratulate especially for finally getting past me). Hope to see you all around in and already looking forward to 2021.

2) Re accruing stats you can use Cardinals-Tigers in your lineups for any Monday games that get scheduled, game and inning caps permitting.

1) Re transactions the last day of games is Sunday and thus the last day to start an auction was yesterday (Friday). This will not change based on potential scheduling of games for Cardinals-Tigers on Monday.

Will lead by saying ottoneu interface is better than it has ever been and all the new features and improvements are great. That said, if anyone else was a bit confused by what constitutes the last day of games this season and how that affects transactions and setting lineups I'll save you the (embarrassingly long) time it took me to figure this out by sharing what I've learned:

Going to get out ahead of this by noting that, assuming the same person batched all those players for the auctions that end on Saturday, when you add players you need to make the corresponding cuts that allow you to remain at or under the "spots" on your roster. If not, I'll have to remove those players from your roster in reverse order and either a) place them back in the FA pool or b) award them to the next highest bidder. I think most or perhaps all of you know this, just FYI for ne

No good comps for JV, either for starters his age (Smoltz was 33) or outcomes (Smoltz obv, maybe Billy Wagner?). He should say never mind and try the Nolan Ryan plan, he gets to collect the 2021 paychecks either way.
