The Bartolo Colon Diet's trade block has been updated!

I'll go no on the vote. To Ump Yours I'd be interested in a football league, feel free to message me on it
-
Yes to the vote

Anyone interested in doing an Ottoneu football league? Perhaps we could start at a lower buy in, but I'm game for whatever.

Example would be Club 10 Billion releases David Dahl and his zero MLB PA today, then attempts to add him to the protected 5MiLB during the draft in November.

First vote for the group: If a player is on a team's main roster, but still qualifies for 5MiLB status when released by that time, should they be allowed to draft that player in the following 5MiLB draft? Please vote Yes or No on the board, and I will update our rules based on majority decision.

sorry i forgot to check the MILB roster for Turner...please delete him. Sorry for the mistake.

As a heads up, I will be proposing possible timing changes for the 5MiLB cut-down period and draft date, plus one other possible change shortly, but this document still stands otherwise. Let me know if you have any questions-- only ~1 more month before the Otto trade deadline. Thanks to all for staying engaged!

2) teams can only participate in the annual snake draft if they have fewer than 5 players on their 5MiLB roster. They can then pick until their 5 spots are filled again.

We have made it through the weekend, and never saw our sixth vote to convert to a flexible, Champions League-style 5MiLB roster limit. That means that we will be sticking with the 3TOOL format, which allows owners to operate with an unlimited number of 5MiLB players between the annual draft and cut date, but 1) all teams must cut to no more than 5 players on their prospect roster as of the cut date for the draft, and...

From what I gather, Michael Conforto's clock is starting this weekend for L7. If y'all want him up, please post here and I'll try to stay on top of it.

And as for Appel, I agree to a degree. I don't think he has Strausburg upside, but I think he could still be a solid 2/3 and a cheap contributor. That might be a bust as the 1st overall pick, but my point is that he's $2 and I think he could definitely earn that as early as next year.
-
But definitely take the package you're more comfortable with. But I would not hesitate to trade Cueto.
-
I like Buxton better in 5x5 than our format, because speed plays there. Health is a concern, but I think he's too young to totally have that label (yet). And I'm probably higher on Appel than most, but at $2, it's a pretty low risk investment. Again, I think he plays up better in 5x5 than in FG points because Houston should be very good for a while. But Chapman is the best, so it's not a bad deal to take him either. I'm just not sure how much surplus value he has @ $25 next year.
-
@ Love - my only concern about the Buxton package is Mark Appel. He screams of bust to me (no offense to his owner here). Plus Buxton can't stay on the field. Chapman would be a luxury item for me - 2nd in saves.

A $13 Cueto is pretty good, but I'd probably trade him for the Buxtom package, especially if you have Kershaw and Grienke. Chapman would be a nice haul too, but I guess it really depends on how bad you need RP & saves. I'd lean towards the Buxton deal though. And I'd be completely willing to move Cueto. I'm concerned about him.
-
Alright gang - need some feedback for another ottoneu league (5x5). Have Cueto ($13) plus Kershaw ($48) and Greinke ($32) and in 2nd place. Been offered Buxton ($7) and Appel ($2), and Gray ($1) for Cueto and Kang. Also been offered Chapman ($23), K. Morales ($6) for Cueto. Keep Cueto or take one of the deals? Thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks, Matt. There's no existing way to stop an auction in process, so we will clear Arcia from your roster on Tuesday when he is added.

Sorry about that - I started up the Arcia auction and completely forgot to check MiLB rosters. Please feel free to delete him from my roster once the auction ends.

It actually appears that I can't kill that auction on my own. I will check with Niv to see if I'm missing something, otherwise the player will be deleted at no penalty from the winning bidder when the auction ends. Maybe don't bid unless you want to tip your hand to your team's internal valuation of Arcia...

Confirmed, Arcia went 4.10 to Rubber Duckies. I will cancel this auction. As a reminder, 5MiLB rosters can be referenced at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1lRu3NeOzRUzuhZ4Gr85ZwYclQhjMxap_-6gDckM-g40.

I already own Orlando Arcia on my 5 MiLB roster.
-
Also, I will be closing our very informal 5MiLB roster limit vote (3TOOL vs. Champs) a week from today, 7/24, so that we'll have more than a month before the Otto trade deadline under the final ruling. There will be at least one follow-up vote on 5MiLB draft issues based on that result, so be on the lookout for that next weekend. Thanks!

5MiLB 1.1 Aaron Nola's MLB clock will apparently start running on Tuesday night. Floyd's HB is legal, so no moves necessary to accomodate him, but I can and will promote him in time for Tuesday start if desired.

@Busters - LOL. I honestly don't think I have ever shopped on eBay before. I just went shopping for a MI this morning and saw that Espinosa was being auctioned. I'll trade him to you for another MI :)

Note to Otto newbies: You don't want to be left with any games or innings on the table when the season ends. And one related quirk that I have seen come into play on the last day of the season: A team receives ALL INNINGS thrown by their team on the day they cross the 1500 IP barrier. We're pretty far away from that mattering, but prepare to plan accordingly, and don't say I never told ya!

Hectic time for me at work, boys, so if there have been any 5MiLB call-ups in the last 7-10 days I may have missed, don't hesitate to send me notice. In the meantime, we are at 5 votes to convert to Champs League roster limits, with one against, one abstain (me), and 4 null votes. Need to clear six Champs votes to make the change!

BCD, you would only need to put 5MiLB players on the main roster if you wanted to get under 5 total in order to take part in the draft.
