15th March should be okay for us

Should be good for me.

Works for us!

March 15 at that time works for me too.
-
That day and time is good for me.

Yep, let's talk auction. Last year there was consensus around the second Sunday before Opening Day. So I propose the same again this year, meaning Sunday 15th March 2020 @ 4pm EST/8pm GMT. How does that suit everyone? If there's no agreement I'll set up a poll and we can go with the majority.

Should we start trying to find a date for the auction?
-
Happy New Year everyone. I think I can still get away with wishing that! Just a polite reminder that the keeper deadline is a little over a week away so get your trades or cuts in before 1st Feb. From 1st Feb, no trades or cuts until after the auction draft. Also, don't forget to renew for the forthcoming season. $20, or about £15.20 for those of us in the UK. Bargain.

Welcome to the league, DIEBALL! I joined just ahead of you - exciting to have a full league now.

Full league again, awesome!

Welcome to the league!

Apologies to the Montreal fans, but I've moved this team to Waxahachie, Texas, a little closer to where I am.

Welcome to the league! Looking forward to talking trade soon!

@Royal Joe - The only thing I’m not freaked out about is your chance of finishing ahead of me next season!

Welcome! You're not the only new player here. I've been onboard for a few weeks and already got a lot of trade action. Buckle up!

Thanks for the welcome! I hope it wasn’t presumptuous to just claim Montreal, but I’ve been looking to join a league and I’m in it for the long haul. This is my first Ottoneu league but I’ve played and run other leagues for years. Looks like I’ve got some salary to shed now, so I’m interested in dealing! Excited to be part of the league. -Patrick

Welcome to the league Patrick! Glad to have you on board

Am sure it won’t come to that. It’s Dec 12th - I won’t start panicking yet.

Not yet, no. Both teams appear on the abandoned teams list. One person did get in touch but went cold when they looked at the rosters!

Do we have any leads on new owners for Adios or Montreal?

Hey all, I’m looking to shed some salary and move some high price pieces. So hit me up with offers for guys like Trout, Yelich, JRam, Rendon, DeGrom, Snell, Paxton, and Kenley

Light the stove, folks! Congrats to Juan Soto for drawing the most arbitration money in our first year of allocation. He can buy a nice six pack with the money now that he's of legal drinking age.

Thanks, Champagne!

Actually, I'm wrong! It ends on the 14th this year (today), even more urgent than I thought, haha. Looking forward to the rest of the off-season!

Glad to have you back Champagne! Just a friendly reminder though that your arb disappears if it's not submitted by tomorrow.

Hi all - apologies for the day. We've been away for the weekend, but keen to continue. Will sort arb out this week.

Got a slack volunteer to to MM’s arb, so it’s less pressing to find a new owner for him now. Any word from champagne?
-
I posted in the slack to see if anyone would be willing to be a proxy arb for Montreal, even if they wouldn’t take the team afterwards.
-
I've sent the owners of Champagne a message asking if they're on board for 2020 and whether they'll participate in arbitration before the deadline. Montreal is the only other team that hasn't allocated any $. We're still looking for an owner for that team, ditto Adios Pelota, so feel free to share details to anyone you think might be interested.

Well also Champagne, it says their last visit to the site was Oct 22. Anyone know if they are still on board? My understanding is that we need to get those arb dollars allocated or they will disappear after Nov 15
-
I guess my question only applies to Montreal Mystery's team, as Nott's Outlaws and Adios Pelota have allocated their arb dollars.

Are we going to have new owners BEFORE the end of arbitration? If we don't get new owners until AFTER arbitration, will those arb dollars be lost? I would think so, because we can make trades after arbitration ends, right?

I know 2 people that are interested in joining the league. I’ll send them links to the teams

Steve, thanks for getting the league off the ground and giving us our first entry into the Ottoverse! I've posted up in the owners-wanted leaderboard on Slack and linked the two currently unowned teams there.
-
Hey guys - just finished arbitration but have decided to not return in 2020. I'll have lots happening on the family front and don't anticipate being able to give the game enough of my attention either in the run up to the draft or over the course of the season, so I'm going to have a season or two in the fantasy wilderness! Thanks to you all for being good sports over the last couple of years, and good luck to everyone for the coming year.

@Adios the email should be inbound from our friend at this point. Let us know if he needs to resend it
-
I know someone who's interested in taking over for one of our departing owners as well.

According to this link, salary increases should take effect today, so before arbitration. https://community.ottoneu.com/t/end-of-the-2019-baseball-season-megathread/6196/6

Do salary increases take effect before or after arbitration?

Thanks to all for a great season - the league was engaged and active all year and that made this year even more enjoyable than the last. Looking forward to having a couple new managers join us next year and continuing to grow the league. Arb starts in two weeks - there is no off-season!

Congrats to MD and LM on the great seasons! Looking forward to next year!

I never even knew there was a global leaderboard.... Anyway congrats to Monroe Doctrine on a runaway victory which puts my desperate (and also futile) attempts to reach the lofty heights of 9th to shame. Two 10th place finishes are not much to write home about. Oh well there's always next season - looking forward to that already.
