I am looking to move J.T. Realmuto, and would probably looking for pitching or outfield depth, in-return.
My trade block should be updated.
Thank you.
-
If anyone over the salary cap is looking to repurpose some salary that you may otherwise release to the auction pool, let me know.
I have a bunch of salary cap room and am flexible with names I can offer.
Thank you.

I can promote the openings on my Twitter timeline, if that is cool.

Poppy .............as it turns out, the guy that was interested is going to pass, just FYI. I will keep looking.

Morning OGR. We have two confirmed, they had told us here they wouldn’t be back. That’s Klein Karankawa Warriors and New and Improved. We have one other team not responding. I’ve messaged with no luck. I will send him a private email, and you and I can chat to see how we wish to handle. Thanks for the assistance.

Poppy /Wayne................. I might have found us a couple owners to take teams in 27 Outs, I need to confirm how many teams are vacant? let me know asap .......thanks

i just sent this out in another Otto league I am in. Current players are a good source. If any of you play in another Otto league, you might consider sending something out as well: "Men of Harrenhal ........ a couple of us are in another Otto league that suddenly has a couple vacant teams. It's old school 4 x 4 scoring (which I think is better), and no cost ..... just a bunch of mellow dudes that enjoy the game and a little smack talk. Let me know if any of you are interested.

Looking at the responses regarding scoring, seems we’ll be sticking with 4x4. And no need for anyone to feel offended. Would really like to fill open spots so all teams can participate in “Hot Stove” activity. Have a great day all!

I like the 4x4 as well, nice change of pace. Currently our retained rosters are built around 4x4, so to switch to traditional 5x5 (not sure if there are other options besides that?) will take sort of a deeper rebuild to start souring players for saves, stolen babes, wins, rbi etc. My preference is 4x4, but will go along if we have a majority to do something different,

I signed up for Ottoneu classic 4 x 4, and that's what I like.

H2H does allow for teams to make up ground more quickly, but I am open to whatever the league decides.
-
I'm down with whatever the league wants to do.
-
I'm down for something different, if the league is cool with it.
-
Item 3. This has been on my mind for some time.I'd really like some feedback and preferences if you have any for a change in scoring. Classic 4x4 worked when we were using the USA Today and paper and pencil. But I think you would find that some of the other would keep more teams in the hunt. In our four seasons the leaders have pretty much stayed the leaders. The current format doesn't offer a tremendous chance for moving up. Just throwing it out there. Thanks guys!
-
Item 2, we are losing another owner. Let's see if we can get this done. A little from those on Slack.
-
Hey all! We're missing several teams arbitration dollars. Please get this done ASAP.

My pleasure Poppy

Hey all, I have been remiss in my duties. In case you haven’t picked up on it, we’re now in Arbitration period. If anyone needs clarification on how the process works, give one of the commishes a shout. @New and Improved, is it possible for you to handle arbitration and hopefully we can get a new owner on board for the winter meetings. Everyone should always feel free to drop us a note or throw it out to the league. Thanks everyone, and again,great job Chico.

Congrats Chico on a great season! You play the game very well - almost a wire-to-wire champ! See you all next year!

I hope OGR gets the ankle bracelet off soon and gets released from home confinement.

Thanks everyone. It was a fun season. Special thanks to OGR and Poppy's for doing the commish work for the season. We appreciate it.
Hopefully everyone comes back next season.

Congrats to Chico. There was never a doubt. The race reminded me of Secretariat winning the Belmont by 31 lengths.

Congratulations “Chico”. You did a great job putting this team together. Working up to this season and then killing it at draft. Way to go!

Everyone,
Even though I didn't reach my modest performance goal for 2021, I still enjoyed the competition.
I'm looking forward to 2022!
Congratulations to Chico's Heroes for winning the championship!

@New & Improved, Sorry to see you leaving. I wish you the absolute best in all your undertakings,

from New & Improved":
Hey there! I need to let you know that at the end of this season I will resign from the league. It was been a fun ride and thanks for letting me participate. I will stay active and blowup my team, but I will not renewing the team. Thanks and good luck the ROS!!!

OG's offer sounds like the General Laws of Podunk County, Part 7, Title IV, Chapter 23, Section 6B, Sub-section vii concerning private sales and trades, aka the Lemon Law. Judge Judy has submitted her approval.

After Miss State squashed Vandy for the championship, there was a great ESPN SEC story about Will Clark and Raphael Palmeiro covering growing up, becoming Thunder and Lightening at Miss State, their pro careers, and where they are today. Steroids be damned, I still have a baseball crush on Raffy. Amazingly three years ago at the age of 53 he played 31 games of independent ball and hit .301 with 6 HRs.

I really enjoy college baseball. Its not as clean and perfectly played as MLB, its just a bunch of guys busting a gut for their school with rabid fans who are into every pitch. Mississippi State gets 14,000 crazies screaming and clanging cow bells for 9 innings. Great stuff. Al Leiter's son Jack pitches for Vandy on Monday night - a .127 BAA in the killer SEC. Two good games tomorrow. Great time of year.

I'm watching right now. It's so nice to have the CWS back. Also, this was the first year I watched College Softball, wow...so much fun. Not sure how anyone can hit against those pitchers and from that distance.
-
Sounds like a good watch. Been super busy this week or would have tried to see Dallas Baptist. Couldn't get the Lady Seminoles home. MLB should stop complaining about the "shift" and take some lessons from the ladies. The shift would disappear if someone is hitting .500 against them. Isn't that why they get the big bucks???

If anybody is interested in college baseball, Vanderbilt has 2 of the projected top 3-4 draft choices (pitchers Rocker and Leiter) coming up in July. Rocker goes at 7:00 tonight against a great hitting team in Arizona. Should be fun to watch.

Obviously it was a brain fart of a dumb play. There are various degrees of stupid plays every day, but that was a whopper. I feel bad for the guy but he's handled the infamy well so far.
