Before the draft officially resumes on Friday, I will announce any pending trades and assuming no issues will make changes to the teams then restart the draft at that point. Thanks again, any questions let me know either on here, email, or Slack where we have a channel dedicated to our league if anyone wants to join. Think there are 5 of us right now but it makes communications *much* easier AND you experience a more in-depth view of Ottoneu connecting with other owners and gathering information

Just wanted to thank everyone for today! Think it went really well and happy we were able to get quite a bit done. For those not there in the end, the draft will restart at 8pm Eastern this coming Friday. If you would like to trade before then, I need the following to happen. Each owner should independently email me the trade with exact player(s) moving, no money can be involved in trades at this time.
-
Second part of the draft will be on Friday, March 18th beginning at 8:00pm EST where I would expect it to last 3ish hours or so depending on the speed Sunday
-
What time on Friday is the second half of the draft?
-
Reminder that our first year draft will officially be underway starting this Sunday, March 13 at 3:00pm EST. Looking forward to it!

Hey guys. I'm sure some of you do multiple leagues. Some guys I know put together an AL vs. NL Keeper League (free ESPN) - where teams in the AL division can only use players from the American League and teams in the NL can only use players in the National League.
Scoring: Head-to-Head by Category
Roster: Additional 10 bench spots for platoons, handcuffs & prospects
Keepers: keep 10-15 each year with inflation.
League Size: 10 (possibly 12)
Email me if you're interested.

I'd also like to mention the Ottoneu Slack community in case anyone here is interested in joining. Basically a place with all Ottoneu-related talk, whether it's trades from different leagues or general questions on what you should do, it can be found there. I've setup a Slack channel for our league, if you join up let me know and I'll connect you to it. Right now I think it's limited to 3 of us, makes communication easier for everyone.

For those who haven't drafted in Ottoneu or auction style. The way to move the draft along is to not start players such as a Mike Trout or Clayton Kershaw at $1, as obviously they won't go anywhere close. Start the bids closer to your values, or even a more reasonable value to where they'll actually go and you'd be surprised how much faster the draft moves along.

Yep, we have official dates (sent in a previous email). Day One is Sunday, March 13 beginning at 2:00PM CST (3:00PM EST) we're planning on a 5 hour day. Whatever is left (figure 2 to 3 hours) will take place Friday, March 18th at 7:00PM CST (8:00 EST).

Glad to be a part of the league. I would hope our draft is either on weekend of March 12-13 or 26-27.

Hey! Once we get everyone officially in we'll take a vote on the draft. Might be an idea to potentially split the draft over a couple nights as the first year can be a bit of a hassle.
-
Hey guys! Nice to meet y'all. I'd love if we could move the draft date a little earlier in March, but not absolutely necessary.
Also, if you need to kill some time before the draft, please check out my film 'Nowhere Girl' on iTunes and Amazon.
