Roster limit for keepers?

[Tim]

In the rules, I stated that there would be no limit on the number of players kept per team. I said that the only limit would be on the number of points.

 

If we follow this rule, we will likely end up with a dramatic imbalance in the league as some people really focused on setting up their teams with a large number of keepers and othes didn't put any focus on that at all.

 

I want to reward the people that managed according to the rules, but will not having a limit take too many players out of the draft?

Minor league players don't count towards this roster limit, but they must be kept on the minor league roster (ie - there's a limit of 10 of those guys).

Is this being implemented this season or should we revote?

 

This decision will certainly impact some teams, one being mine where I could keep 19 players.

If we're changing the rule, it should be changed going into NEXT offseason. I set up my roster per the rules, and it would suck to change them now, just because some others did not do so. I also feel that teams who are not benefitting from this setup have more incentive to make a few trades for exempt players.

 

All those voting yes had every opportunity to play by the same rules as the rest of us, imo. Could the rule be changed? Yes, it could, and it should. Just not going into THIS season.

Sounds fair. This rule will be implemented as soon as our league championship is over in September 2008 for the 2008 offseason.
