Draft Date Selection-
Please send me (via the message feature on the Otto site) any days and/or times you are NOT available to draft. I will sort through all of the dates that people aren't available and pick a date that everyone can make.
It looks like we only have a couple people who aren't in the Eastern or Central time zones but I will not pick any Monday-Friday, during regular business hours (so 8AM-8 PM Eastern time) so the earliest we would start a draft, during

Hey guys, sorry for being a bit absent. My union is going through a strike vote and I am on the strike committee so please go ahead with the draft, I will check in when I can.

Throwing out dates is always a recipe for disaster. What I’ve done in other leagues (and this one last year) is to have everyone send me dates they CAN’T draft. Then I figure out a date everyone can make. I’m happy to do that again for the league this year.

Great idea. Many leagues have already set dates.

That sounds good! Just keep us posted. Would it be stepping on toes to start throwing dates around that work? That way we could sort things out and allow the commish the veto power.

Re: Draft Date
I messaged the commissioner on Sunday morning and haven't heard back. It looks like he hasn't logged on in February. He granted me commisioner privileges' last year but said they were temporary and he would re-evaluate it this year.
I'm happy to pick the draft date again but would rather wait to hear back from him before moving forward.

Thanks guys! I really enjoyed this format. Congrats on a great year - it really came down to the wire! My matchup with Taken was SO close, and GF Chaunceys got a ton of production from his team. Really great job turning that team around. Sandlot got hit with a bunch of injuries there. I’m gonna miss setting my lineup every day! Looking forward to next season.
-
Congrats ROUS! Thanks for the fun season, everyone.
-
Congratulations to Rodents on a great year. l'm looking forward to next year. This was my first time playing head to head it was quite a different strategy.
-
Congrats to Rodents.
Was hoping for the ultimate Cinderella story, based on the trash I took over on Opening Day, but will have to settle for second. Been a fun year all, thanks.

Thanks for clearing that up!! I appreciate it. It’s been a fun season here and I am going to miss it when it’s done.

I appreciate the info... my memory had it backward and I'm definitely late looking into it... should have sorted it out before leaving for vacation Sunday. Good luck.

No worries. I only found it on Sunday afternoon because I went to the forums. I couldn’t find it in the rules without guidance either.

From the rules..
In two-week playoff games, the GS cap will reset at the end of the first week and before the second week begins on the second Monday in the matchup

Seems to be that it restarts after the end of the week.

I have the same question about SP as Sandlot Sharks - do we get 9 more next Monday, or is the 9 SP spread between this week and next?
-
Looking for clarification on the number of SPs in the final games since they span 2 weeks. Do we get another 9 SPs starting next Monday, or is it 9 combined for weeks 24 & 25?

Some damn entertaining SF games - at one point on Sunday, the battle between us and the Sharks was within 0.5 points and the other matchup between the league leaders all season was within 3 points.

Not sure if any of you do fantasy hockey, but I have a deep roto style auction league starting up on Yahoo (I wish Ottoneu would do hockey). Let me know if interested and I'll send you the link.

Interested in trading Cole before the deadline if anyone is interested.
-
It really is a crazy-making game sometimes! I made some poor pitching choices and then my usually solid pitchers had some truly horrendous games. And my batters were all sluggish out of the break. /shrug But that’s the fun of fantasy baseball - never know what’s going to happen each week. Love it!
-
What a silly game sometimes - our winless, last-place rebuilding team just beat our 1st place team by 5 points over a 10-day game week. Weird stuff.

Daulton Varsho on the block, looking for SP help

I am all in on the OPL league this year and am going to qualify for the final 32. This means, I am willing to trade anyone with more future value to add present day value. No one is off limits. Any deal I make for OPL needs to be accepted by (around) the start of the All Star Game. If there is anyone you are interested in, let me know!

Awesome. I show that now too. Must've updated right after I wrote. Thanks :)

When I look now it shows you have 6 remaining starts for this week.

Quick Question - New to Ottoneu this year. Lucchesi was supposed to start today and the game got postponed. It counted as one of my 9 GS for the week. Will that reset tomorrow so it doesn't count. Went from 9 to 5 today, but only 3 pitchers. Will it be 6 again remaining tomorrow?
Thanks in advance.

Chauncey's is correct, I am not able to reverse the $20 loan. Can you guys (Chauncey, Eyes Wide Open) please accept a trade with a $20 loan. All trades have to have a player involved so please include at least one player and then once it processes I will restore the player involved back to his original team. Thanks guys!

Hey all, I just took over this team. And, uh, wow, not sure what to say about the league right now. First time in a head to head league also so I'm going to take a few days, get my bearings and then go from there.

I have taken over Golden Sombrero. I have played fantasy baseball for many years. This will be my first H2H league looking forward to a new challenge.

In the interest of full disclosure - Smell my Finger's $20 loan to me should be removed, as well.

Welcome aboard to the GF Chaunceys.
Since the Cole trade received 7 vetoes (6 plus the 'approve' vote done in error) that trade will be reversed.
The Machado trade received 5 vetoes so will stand.
GF Chauncey has asked that they get their round of penalty free cuts back since they were not aware that the Cole trade would be reversed so we're going to allow that.

I mean, I guess if only a few thousand people read ESPN, MLB.com, The Athletic, mlbtraderumors and the Washington Post. I could go on but I'm pretty sure those sites count as 'widely reported.'

And widely reported my ass. It was not even on this site he was even injured. I bet only a few thousand people knew he was that hurt outside of the Nationals organization and his family.
