Haha I think that's a good idea, especially with their unfair bats they have now. I know it's a small sample, but I just feel like it's definitely a reason they've been hitting all of these homers.
-
i guess the lesson is to never start any pitcher against the Yankees...

Me gusta mucho el señor Judge
-
So it doesn't pay to start fast? I'm surprised to be where I'm at, so if the cost is losing a couple auctions, I'll take it.
-
Until you drop in the standing, you will probably have to bid one or two bucks more than you intended if you want to win out in an auction.
-
Standings - lowest team wins. Since you are currently in 2nd, you will lose to everyone but RiverKnights.
-
Ottonewbie here: how is the winner of tied auctions determined? I'm 0/2 rn.
-
Yeah. I didn't realize there were three until I had already started the other auction.

Yes. Dongs has the LA player. The one being auction is with Oakland. The one cut has no team designation. You need to look next to player's name for team designation to try to avoid confusion.
-
Are there three Max Muncys?

He played 2B his last game in August 2023, so it must be because he was out all last year he's util only.

Player positional eligibility
An offensive player is eligible to fill a position if he:
Played in 10 or more regular season major league games at that position in the current or preceding year
Started 5 or more regular season major league games at that position in the current or preceding year
Played in 20 or more regular season minor league games at that position in the current or preceding year
McLain didn't play last year at all so is only eligible of UTL
-
Looking at the rules, they say position eligibility is determined by regular season games
-
Anyone know why Matt McClain is only listed as UTIL? He's playing 2B in spring training. I'm guessing it's something that will be updated closer to the beginning of the season?
-
Correct. Also note, you need at least $1 available for every open roster spot under 40 or you will have an illegal roster.
-
Thanks. Then I need to trade to free up some $$$ to do anything with those spots.
-
If Javier or Bieber go on the 60 day IL list - they will automatically move off your 40 man roster - freeing roster spots while they are on the 60 day list.
-
Can I use IL spots for Javier or Bieber?
-
I ended up having to use phone for entirety of auction. Save for missing out on the Gallen auction (who I would have loved!) it went pretty smoothly.
-
I can’t believe I got this done so fast
-
No worries, thanks for the heads up! If you're free later, it's possible to join late
-
5 minutes - please come to the draft room.
-
Guys. I'm sorry but am stuck at work. I probably won't make it or will be late. But......I only have 2 open roster spots so I'm ok if I don't win any auctions. My apologies.
-
about 15 minutes until draft time.
-
FYI - I have bad weather (strong winds and rain) in my area this evening. Small chance power may go out at house and I may be forced to use my phone at some point during the draft. Please be patient with me if that happens because I have never done that before. Thanks.
-
Draft is tomorrow night!
-
I just made Wally's cuts, so we officially have our player pool. Good luck to everyone on their draft prep!
-
Yeah Wally, just message me who you want to cut and I can take them off your team
-
I agree, it’s only 1 day missed as well.
-
Slama, can you give Wally a free pass to make 1 round of cuts? Feels like we can allow that without any real risk?
-
Oops, I forgot about deadline last night. Will be an interesting case study on starting the year differently

If anyone is looking to make last minute trades, I am looking for RP help. Maybe someone you are cutting anyways or are on the edge on. Let me know.
-
Sorry, crazy week last week. March 4 works for me
-
Hey everyone - a couple quick reminders:
-Jan 31 is the cut deadline. Please make any final cuts before then and ensure your roster is legal
-Jan 31 is also the deadline to RENEW YOUR TEAM. Pay Ottoneu to avoid getting locked out
-Our draft date is set: Thurs Mar 4 at 8pm est
-
Draft date is set for 3/4. I still haven't heard from Wally or Freddie - sent them another message earlier this week. But we'll go with 3/4 unless someone objects
REMINDER: Renew your team by 1/31
-
3/4 is fine if after 7:30pm EST.
-
I can likely make most evenings work. March 4th works.
-
3/4 works for me
-
I can be flexible. Preferably on a weekend, but I can make most weeknights work too.

Right now, 3/4 looks good. Otherwise, maybe 3/16 as the backup (I can find someone to draft for me if necessary). We'll see what the other teams have to say re: schedule
-
Re: the last 2 comments, Dirtbags has said 3/9-3/11 doesn't work. So those are all out.
-
Sundays are probably easier for me as well. I can commit to 3/10 or 3/11 now, but no guarantee work travel doesn’t come up (would likely know 3 weeks out)
-
I am a fan of 3/9. Sunday evenings seem to be when most are available. After 8pm EST is best for me most nights.
-
I am flexible. Time wise at least. I’ll make it work whenever.
-
Currently, I’m available after 130pm PST M-F. Weekends I’m open anytime. The dates that don’t work clash with Slama. I’m not at all around 3/9, 3/10 and 3/11. My days fill up fairly quickly. Let’s lock this day in please.

My best dates are 3/4, 3/10, and 3/11. I know that's pretty limiting, but if none of those are good for the group, I can try and make another date work
-
At this moment, any weekday after 7:30pm EST (maybe can do 7pm) and all my weekends are open anytime.
-
Quick reminder to make all your cuts by Jan 31!
After Jan 31, no cuts or trades will be allowed.
Let's set a draft date. This year there is a 2 game series in Japan that starts Mar 18, so I think we want to draft before then.
Everyone please post in the message board: what evenings CAN you do between Fri Feb 28 to Mon Mar 17?
Finally, Jan 31 is the deadline to renew your team on Ottoneu, so please make sure you're paid up.
Let me know if you hav

Happy Holidays to my fellow owners.
