I am on the east coast. I am trying to avoid drafting during the week at midnight and getting up at 4am to go to work. I am at work now. When I get home I will check to see what dates and times for for me.
-
Sorry, I meant 3/19 - 3/23 and 3/24 - 3/27... I'm getting ahead of myself. :-D
-
This week I'm available weekday evenings anytime between 3pm and 9pm Pacific. I'm unavailable 4/19 - 4/23 due to travel, but my schedule is wide open 4/24 - 4/27.
-
I will have them done in 30 to 60 minutes.
-
Let's talk draft date/time. I'm in the mountain timezone and I have two very small children that require maintenance from 530pm to 8pm every night. So I'm available to start the draft any night starting at 8pm mountain. We don't have to go for hours, we can break it up over a couple or several nights. If that is still too late for east cost guys. I could do weekends around 1pm mountain or anytime during business hours. Start throwing out some dates/times guys.
-
Chris, make sure to get your cuts in ASAP.
-
now that the league is full, have we picked a draft day? thanks!
-
Welcome to the two new owners.
-
welcome guys! this is a great league!!
-
Hey Chris. Thanks for the welcome, I appreciate it. Good luck to you as well!
-
Hello Jake. I am also a new guy here. I am very excited to be a part of this league. Good luck!
-
Hey all. I'm Jake and I just picked up the Bank One Ballpark team. It has been a few years since I've played fantasy baseball and this will be my first season on Ottoneu. Looking forward to all the fun.
-
Hi Chris, welcome.
-
Hi Chris! As an FYI...if you have not done so already, be sure to read the Ottoneu rules and FAQ. Also, there are a number of Ottoneu specific articles available on Fangeaphs/Rotographs that may be helpful in getting up to speed and feeling comfortable with the format, scoring, player pool, etc.

Hello again. I see a banner stating that the Baltimore Cabals have 1 round of penalty free cuts, since change of ownership has occurred. I will be reviewing contracts and making decisions this weekend.
-
Welcome Chris. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Ottoneu is a unique platform but my favorite way to play fantasy baseball.

Hello everyone! My name is Chris and I am the new owner of the Baltimore Cabals. I live in the Los Angeles area. I am very excited to be a part of this league. It has been a while since I have played fantasy sports. I love the salary aspect of a league, it makes it more realistic. I may not be the most knowledgeable person regarding fantasy sports, I do my best by: responding to trades, polls, requests, etc. I am eager and quick learner. Please have patience with me. Take care, Chris K.

The Bank One Ballpark team still needs to be filled. I've had a post on the Manager's Wanted board for about 2 weeks, which helped fill the Cabal team. Hopefully with the lockout now over, the available teams will start getting snatched up, including the one in this league. If you know of someone who might be interested, check with them and lets get that last team filled.

Are we a full league? Welcome to the new owner.

Welcome to the new manager. Also it looks like we have a deal and baseball is back!

Unfortunately not. There are still an unprecedented amount of unclaimed teams on the site, most likely because the ongoing greed feud between the owners and mlbpa further distances the every day fan with every work stoppage.

any bites yet on the two teams?

any bites yet on the two teams?

The two teams -- Baltimore Cabal and Bank One Ballpark Pool -- are listed with the many other expired teams. This happened automatically with all teams that had not renewed as of early last week. I've had a couple of teams in another league that expired and have since been picked up. My rough count is that there are approximately a total of 173 teams currently available.

Are we trying to get 2 new Managers? Is their teams listed anywhere.
-
Agree on the lockout comment, too much negativity around the game right now but when the grass turns green....
-
could be, joe. ive talked to guys who play other games and they are having difficulties too

I think that is only part of it. Some people just pay attention in the off season even though this is a year round game.
-
i think that the lockout is having an effect on people wanting to play.

If anyone has someone that wants to take over a team, please invite them or send me their email.
-
There are well over 200 teams currently listed as expired. The Commissioner in one of my other leagues let his team expire, so, yeah, that's a problem. LOL

I interpret expired as meaning the fees weren't paid. When an owner gives up, we usually get an email that the team was abandoned.

I am in a bunch of leagues and Ottoneu is year round league. It is one of the things I like about it. You need to pay attention to it from time to time. This league has been pretty good at doing that but if you don't the deadline for paying can sneak up on you.
-
but the email i received said the team had expired. doesnt that mean they have been given up? cabal was in 1st place. doesnt make sense

Yes, means he had not paid his renewal fee. Seeing it in other leagues too.

How to update trade block? it gives me garbage can?

Welcome to the league Thunder. Feel free to ask questions.
-
Welcome to the league. We usually run the draft is early/mid March but we'll see how bargaining goes. If you have any other questions just let us know.
-
when do we get to draft?
-
Hi everyone! I'm new to this so I'll need a little help here
-
Deadline to renew is tonight. As of tomorrow, anyone not renewed will have their teams available to be picked up by a new GM. If you're planning on staying I suggest taking care of that.
-
we need to make a decision soon on yellow crayons

YC - what it says is they have respect for the league. This is a year 'round game, not a survivor style game where you drop out... participation regardless of points, trying to improve regardless of standing is why I play. Vote to replace.
