• Well, since I've already moved teams around, I'd really prefer you not leave at this point. I'd have to find a temporary one-year owner (probably me). The only thing I'd say as far as the cap forgiveness "loophole" (which I don't like either), is that it doesn't get the owner a ton, because there shouldn't really be many worthwhile assets for him to bid on after the time it takes him to walk his cap down, so I don't think it really breaks the economics of the league. But I do get the f

• That sucks. Is there a date for when I have to decide whether or not I want to return to the league, then? I hated the loophole and don't really want to be in a league where people take advantage of it. I'll probably let you know in a week or so whether or not I'm in or out. I won't do the arb thing until I've decided.

• Thanks for getting it done Ian. I was considering bothering you about it again this morning but thought the better of it.

• Arbitration starts tomorrow. Also, don't forget to pay your league dues. (most of you are set to expire in February). Then shoot me an email (imalino@gmail.com) with your preferred method of reimbursement. And I'll send you last year's too, which I, uh, never did.

• Hey all, Ian here. Welcome your new league member, fresh up from Triple-A, taking over Arnold T. Pants, Esq. It's Pudi.

• No, we're not gonna vote about the cap space thing, bc it's apparently part of the design of the game. No matter how stupid I think it is.

  Sveet on October 14, 2016 1:58 PM

• For real, though, can we vote as a league about the loophole? I feel like it was detrimental to the league as a whole, and it threw things out of whack.

• That was quite the finish. Great job, Rayn, and good effort by gjsor. Almost pulled it off.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on July 20, 2016 12:53 AM

• It's fucking bullshit.

  And Here Come the Pretzels! on July 20, 2016 12:50 AM

• Man, you log out one day....... It's accepted practice in other Ottoneu leagues. Not sure I should feel bad, I'm within the rules. As a few of you pointed out, it's a design feature to the game and lots of others do it. We're all playing by the same rules here.

  Southern Comfort on July 19, 2016 3:06 PM

• I guess there is no incentive to sell low on guys. Just dump what you don't want and hope someone else dumps something. An active waiver wire is way more fun than an active trading league...

• The strategy is also outlined here: http://www.fangraphs.com/fantasy/ottoneu-101-the-capps-space-dilema/ I also feel that it's very questionable, but apparently intended.

• So given that the guy who runs this thing thinks this kind of thing is kosher, I'm gonna rescind my previous decision. I wanna go on record that I think he's wrong though.

• I reviewed the transactions of Pitching to the Score and found a few cases of blatant cap penalty manipulation. I've restored Mescaro's cap penalty to $4 and Sandoval's to $2. Adding and then immediately cutting a player to save on the cap penalty is not cool. You've been warned.

  Sveet on July 18, 2016 8:40 AM

• I don't really appreciate Pitching to the Score's manipulation of an exploit in the cap penalties that many of us know about, but have refrained from using because we are not chickenshit cowards. I move that this player should not be invited back next season and hope that the commissioner does the right thing. We have no play in this league for dishonorable people.
