Illegal Rosters

[Tim]

I've checked all rosters for legality and the following are illegal at this point:

 

Banedon

Jazz (new owner)

The Attacking Aardsmas (new owner)

Warpticon

 

Banedon and Warp - I'm going to dump players from your rosters at midnight if you don't take care of it first.

 

 

 

 

If anyone wants a copy of the spreadsheet I used for this, just let me know.

Thanks, Tim.

 

I've cut some position players, but I'll have to make a decision between Rollins and Jones.

 

I'll start cutting pitchers after I run another set of projections.

Elvis Andrus doesn't cost you anything to keep and he's a pretty promising prospect. I'm not sure why you cut him, but I'd recommend adding him back to your roster. I can take care of that if you like.

I'd appreciate it. I didn't realize I had cut him, so it must have been an accident.

Shouldn't Jason Bay on Buckner's roster be points eligible? 2007 will be his fourth year in MLB.

 

Same for Alex Rios.

It's based on when they passed rookie qualification. So even though Bay appeared in 2003, he didn't have more than 130 AB's. Therefore, 2004 was his "rookie" year of eligibility for the league.

 

Rios was technically in the majors in 2003, but didn't even have a PA.

 

Each player has three exempt years beginning with their "rookie" campaign. So Bay and Rios didn't burn an exemption in 2003, then burned their three exemptions in the 2004, 2005 and 2006 offseasons. So they are both exempt this time around, but will not be next offseason when I'll have to significantly alter my OF structure. :D

I get that, but Bay and Rios each played full seasons in 2004, 2005, and 2006.

 

Rule #2 reads like this:

 

2.) Players with less than three years experience will be points-exempt.

 

Should it read like this?

 

2.) Players with three years experience or less will be points-exempt.

 

Unless that's the case, I don't see how Bay and Rios are exempt.

Sorry, you are right that it is a bit confusing in how that is worded. The second sentence is a bit more clear in that it specifically states that there are three exempt years. I'll edit the rule to make that more clear.

Thanks.

 

I'm just making sure I understand before the season starts.

 

Not that I have high expectations this year. :)

Okay, I think I'm legal now.

Okay, I think I'm legal now.

Yes, you are indeed.
