It's super great having the guy who codes your fantasy application so available to the users to troubleshoot stuff. He also explained the draft glitch for vote off leagues to me this morning.
If you've got an @ottoneu.com auction coming up, this note in the Ottoneu forums (community.ottoneu.com) might be helpful
We're hiring! Looking for talented, analytical writers to cover fantasy baseball. Details below. Ping me with questions, apply if interested. Flex in when/what you write. Would love to beef up keeper / @ottoneu.com coverage. Pts lgs could use love. Also want to know what YOU want to write about.
I've just published a 2026 version of the @ottoneu.com baseball 5x5 Standings Projections tool using ATC projections:

the @ottoneu.com Podcasters League is doing a slow draft this year. 5x5 league entering year 3. www.couchmanagers.com/auctions/?au...
My cohost, Pete "I'm not on BlueSky" Ball, netted the first add, a $23 Helsley. saves will be at a premium. I'm sweating out final 45 minutes of a much needed 3B.
Lab! Lab! Lab!
@benclemens.bsky.social and Sean Dolinar present the FanGraphs Lab, a very cool collaboration between the editorial team and the engineering team that provides a place to experiment with baseball data analysis and visualization.
Been a few early @ottoneu.com auctions - posted about one last night; have a slow one going; know of a couple others. Going to write up some interesting values in early drafts of leagues impacted by keepers and inflation.
Any players you're particularly interested to know what they're going for?
Also I'm not allowed to bid anymore, @chadyoung.bsky.social has the keys.
Chad's posting about our draft while I'm not bidding.
Know this is ADP based, but it's a great source of interesting low cost SP regardless of format. Have an @ottoneu.com auction tonight that I'm entering with $27 and 11 spots to fill. I need 2-3 SP and this article from @sporer.bsky.social is gonna help a ton.

Returned from vacation just in time to post my tiered SP rankings for @ottoneu.com on @fangraphs.com.
There are a handful of top tier options but the bulk of the value at SP lands between $10 and $27 -- 38 pitchers appear in that range. fantasy.fangraphs.com/jake-mailhot...
I’m on vacation this week, but the @ottoneu.com rankings on @fangraphs.com must go on.
Third base is extremely top heavy and thins out really quickly once you get past #12 or #13. You might be stuck with a MI or OF that’s eligible at 3B to fill out that spot. fantasy.fangraphs.com/jake-mailhot...

Next up for my tiered @ottoneu.com rankings on @fangraphs.com: outfielders.
With five lineup spots to fill in this format, OF has always been a position that’s deceptively shallow. It might be a little deeper thanks to some exciting youngsters to pick from. fantasy.fangraphs.com/jake-mailhot...
Started rolling out my tiered rankings for @ottoneu.com on @fangraphs.com today. First up: middle infielders.
SS and 2B have a pretty steep drop off from the top contributors, a very large middle class, and another steep drop off after you get past #80 or so. fantasy.fangraphs.com/jake-mailhot...
It's @ottoneu.com ranking season! @jakemailhot.com and I started w/MI. We'll go through each pos in Jan. For each you get:
