• Me too

  Keep Castillo, Merrill On 👑 on March 30, 2023 12:40 PM

• Gonna be pissed if LA doesnt move Lux to the 60day in like 30 mins. WTF is this? I cant set lineups bc the teams are being stupid lol

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 30, 2023 12:39 PM

• Lol yeah I like Grissiom but was really worried this would happen and at $9 it's not great

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 20, 2023 7:05 PM

• Thanks Commish! On a lighter note, the Atlanta Braves just owned me after draft day. Well played, congrats islanders. haha

  Keep Castillo, Merrill On 👑 on March 20, 2023 6:45 PM

• Sorry, just ended it. You should be able to make changes to your teams now.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 20, 2023 8:47 AM

• NEED to turn off draft!!! Everyone seems to be done

  Keep Castillo, Merrill On 👑 on March 19, 2023 9:15 PM

• REMINDER: We're drafting tomorrow! Let me know if you need me to move anything around by a few minutes. Happy to accommodate!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 18, 2023 4:52 PM

• Based on the feedback I got, I'm setting 3/19 as the draft day as its the closest to the start of the season where everyone will be available. Please let me know if this doesn't work for you!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on February 14, 2023 11:35 AM

• Hey All, If you haven't yet please renew your team if you plan on playing again in 2023, otherwise let me know so I can search for a replacement. I'm going to start thinking about draft dates over the next few weeks so if there's any dates that absolutely don't work (we usually draft on a sun evening) let me know ASAP.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on February 1, 2023 10:19 AM

• Putting Vaughn Grissom on the block before roster cuts. Looking for a good, young SP in return

  Ellis Islanders II on January 22, 2023 5:50 PM

• Haven't really thought about draft dates yet. Will probably start on that in Feb sometime.
  
  Yeah, it's his league we've been playing in since the ESPN days, I'm just handling the day to day of late. Think he had a rough work year but he's still planning on playing.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on January 5, 2023 5:52 PM

• Hey comish, just wondering if you have a few draft dates in mind?
  
  Also, I see that RyanR is a comish too and like never set lineups last year.... what's up with that?!!

  Bugs on January 5, 2023 5:23 PM

• Hey All, Please remember to make your roster cuts by the 1/31 deadline. Also if you don't plan on re-upping the team for the 2023 season, please let me know so that I can start scouring the message boards for a replacement!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on January 4, 2023 12:39 PM

• Not sure, I'd guess a week or two. Shouldn't matter anyway bc I think the cap penalties will reset and its not like being blocked from setting your lineup matters anymore lol.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on October 6, 2022 12:15 PM

• Question comish, when can we start dropping people with no penalty before arbitration?

  Quincy Gems on October 6, 2022 11:32 AM

• Kevin! Thanks for the memories and the fun! Appreciate it! You're a living legend! A champion in all aspects!

  Quincy Gems on October 6, 2022 11:32 AM

• Thanks to the commissioner for running things and everyone else for another fun season. This league seems to get more competitive each year. I'm looking forward to seeing what all of you do with your rosters over the winter. See you all at the draft next year.

  Team Stokes on October 5, 2022 10:38 PM

• Congrats, Roidbird. Dominating win this year. Thanks to everyone for making it a fun season. See you next year

  Ellis Islanders II on October 5, 2022 4:51 PM

• Congrats to the champ, Roidbird. It was a pleasure to compete against you Mr. You're A Fangraph.

  Keep Castillo, Merrill On 👑 on October 5, 2022 2:12 PM

• Thanks to the commishes for another great season. Looking forward to seeing everyone next year!

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on October 5, 2022 1:02 PM

• Thanks to everyone for great memories these last several seasons. I’m stepping away from fantasy sports and leaving You’re A Fangraph in the more than capable hands of Jake Bullis. He’s been mostly running the team for about half of this season. You guys will love Jake and his passion for fantasy! I’ll be checking in from time to time… please don’t be a stranger! Thanks again!

• Thanks for playing, everyone and congrats to back-to-back champs Team Roidbird! Hope to see you all back again for the 2023 season!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on October 5, 2022 11:25 AM

• Seems nobody wants Trout!!! Serious about letting him go. Send offers

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on August 28, 2022 10:34 AM

• hey all! Let me know if there is any interest in deGrom before the Aug 31st trade deadline!

  The Coom Dogs on August 19, 2022 2:00 PM

• Alright, with my Cole deal done (assuming everyone agrees its fair) I really only feel the need to move Trout, who's coming back on Friday, and Stanton (who seems on track for later this month). Send offers if interested and don't hesitate to ask about some of the other players if there's an interest there!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on August 17, 2022 3:46 PM

• Trout/Harper injuries sank my season so I'm gonna be in full sell mode heading into the deadline. Will listen to any offers but looking to trade some of the pricier impact pieces for younger, high upside players (MLB preferred as I want to compete next year).

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on August 5, 2022 10:31 AM

• Ouch, that's almost as bad as the 5 HR, -57 point stinker I got from Eovaldi a few weeks ago.

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on June 8, 2022 8:16 PM

• Wow, Keegan Thompson 3 HRs, 2 HBPs and 1 Walk in 3 Innings is a -31 Point start. Ouch

  Ellis Islanders II on June 7, 2022 9:13 PM

• Just shut it down!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on April 4, 2022 12:46 PM

• I think someone need to turn off the Draft so we can make trades, etc.

  Ellis Islanders II on April 4, 2022 12:33 PM

• Reminder everyone, draft is in less than 2 hours. Let me know if you're delayed, I probably won't start it till a little after 7 EST anyway to make sure everyone is ready. Very excited for the season!
  
  Re Roidbird's Post: Yep and there's still 6 OGs left and a few others that have been with us for almost the whole time.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on April 3, 2022 5:19 PM

• Just saw the "managers wanted" posting on the Ottoneu board -- didn't realize that this league's been around since 2008. Pretty cool

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on March 31, 2022 6:04 PM

• Awesome. Welcome aboard!

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on March 29, 2022 9:49 PM

• Hey All - New Owner here. Longtime fantasy owner (usually Fantrax money leagues) that used to play Otteneu back in the day. I was looking for an established league to join and this looked promising. I'll be around for the long haul and very active. This is a rebuilding situation so I'll be wheeling and dealing right away. I'll probably keep Trout and then loan someone some cap room and trade him for prospects later. Should be fun

  Ellis Islanders II on March 29, 2022 8:48 PM

• Still trying to find owners to fill the two spots. Please email me if you have anyone in mind!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 28, 2022 8:55 AM

• Hey everyone, since the new CBA has been agreed upon it looks like the start of the season will be Apr. 7. With that in mind, I set the draft for the Sunday before. Hopefully, this will give everyone a good idea where the remaining free agents will land and who will/won't start the season healthy. Please let me know if you cannot attend at that time and I'll do my best to accommodate.
  
  As of right now, we have only 2 teams with open ownership so if you know anyone interested, forward

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 11, 2022 12:01 PM

• Yeah I'm gonna assume Ottoneu will handle this like they did in 2020 and move the season start date every couple weeks as games get canceled. I usually like to stage the draft 1-2 weeks before so I'm probably gonna be moving that around a bit. So keep an eye out.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 2, 2022 7:15 PM

• Since the season is in jeopardy of starting anything on time, should we change the season start date?

  Keep Castillo, Merrill On 👑 on March 2, 2022 6:32 PM

• Hey, everyone. Please try to extend your team today if you are planning on returning. If you don't the team is susceptible to being taken by someone else. If you don't want to play this year, let me know so I can try to find a replacement.
  
  Also, the keeper deadline is in 2 weeks so please make your cuts.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on January 31, 2022 9:13 AM

• REMINDER: Please extend your teams by the Jan. 31 deadline and make all the cuts you'd like by the same date. Let me know if you aren't planning on returning so I can get started on a replacement. Thanks!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on January 7, 2022 9:00 AM

• Reminder to everyone to make their Arb Voting choices by this Sunday!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on November 9, 2021 10:33 AM

• Hey Everyone, Just wanted to thank you all for playing this year (even though my team sucked despite good rate stats lol). Remember to check the offseason schedule to meet all the deadlines. Hope everyone can return next year!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on October 4, 2021 11:49 AM

• Damn, fellas. My season may be over before it began! Four days since the draft and I've lost Yates and Eloy for the year, Springer and Pearson banged up, Stras not far behind, and Adell, Kiriloff and Varsho sent down. With all these bench prospects, that doesn't leave me enough guys to field a team. Send me a message if you want to talk trade for an elite prospect or two. The only one off the table are probably Wander. I won't be giving these guys away, but I'm willing to deal.

  So Called Crew on March 25, 2021 6:27 PM

• Hey everyone, I ended the draft so you're free to make any cuts/pickups you want. Thanks for attending!

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 22, 2021 9:18 AM

• REMINDER: The auction draft is set for this Sunday at 6 eastern. Message me if you can't make it and I can try to accomodate.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 16, 2021 3:32 PM

• Awesome!

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on March 10, 2021 1:11 PM

• I expect them back, seems like they are just procrastinating. Reached out and both intend to join.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 10, 2021 11:56 AM

• Not sure if you know if they're coming back or not, but it looks like Shinjo and Uncle Tom don't have managers either

  Roidbird Gotta Eat Too on March 10, 2021 11:24 AM

• If anyone knows someone looking to join, let me know. Looks like the TakingHochevar team is our only opening right now.

  Jose Canseco's Option Strategy on March 8, 2021 5:10 PM

• Sounds good. Thanks for setting this up!
