  1. No, Don wanted to know if/when his player would become eligible at a position, not to get a special exemption to put him there to sidestep the rules. Yes, he was asking for a clarification of the rules. He doesn't currently have him at 3B to sidestep them, he asked what the eligibility rules were. Juan clarified that if a player is the opening day starter at a position, that player becomes eligible for that position, by CBS's player eligibility rules. He's not asking if he can stash him at 3B until he plays there. You're trying to claim this as some kind of precedent to side-stepping the rules. If Sheets is signed and placed on the DL before the season starts, he can go on the IR. That's as similar as the two scenarios get. Thank you Kevin. It's really not that hard to understand. Adam just can't seem to give a reason that Sheets should be able to be placed on the DL even though he's not on the MLB DL. He just tries to deflect upon others because he can't give a valid reason. like i've said eight fucking times. he's hurt. he's disabled. he is unable to pitch due to injury. he is going to surgery.

  3. I just asked how many games he has to play to be eligible at C. He played 11 last year in limited time in the majors, but didn't retain his eligibility there. Does he now have to play 10 at C to get eligibility? Also, if he's named the starting 3b for SF, will he be automatically eligible there, even though he didn't play any 3b last year. yes, he needs to play 10 to get there this year. if he starts at 3b opening day, he is eligible there. I belive you will be incorrect should he start the season there.. and this confirms it. So why again should you be able to place Sheets on the DL? Stop deflecting and give a reasonable answer. because he's got a broken fucking arm or some shit. he's hurt. he's unable to pitch due to injury. he is about to have surgery. he is unsigned due to injury. he is disabled. why am i incorrect on sandavol?
  4. well, don wants a special exemption to apply to his guy, but apparently not mine. if we're going by the exact wording of the rules, his guy's not eligible.
  5. what? as far as good arguments go, i think it's pretty clear sandoval's not eligible at 3b by the way.
  6. but i can't remember this situation ever arising before...if sheets weren't a FA, it wouldn't even be an issue b/c he'd obviously be on the DL. if someone can point to me another injured guy who wasn't on a team at the start of the season, fine. Why are you ignoring the rule itself? i don't think the rule was written with such a situation in mind.

Why are you ignoring the rule itself? Because he's in law school and is just getting practice for the future. I don't understand how it's not cut and dry. Sheets is NOT on an ML roster, and thus isn't on the DL. Thus, you can't place him on the DL in Roadkill. Seems pretty straight forward to me. and that guy for the giants isn't eligible at 3b, but you think he should get to be eligible there. that rule is also pretty cut and dry. also, i'm not in law school.

  9. GHS trade their 2009 8th round pick to nsbb for nsbb's 2010 6th round pick.
  10. for who? clemens isn't the same situation.
  11. that's stupid. he's hurt. he's not playing. the reason he's not on a roster is because he's hurt. it makes no sense that i can't keep him on my DL, but if he signs with a team tomorrow i can put him on the DL.
  12. right, but clemens didn't have a broken arm or whatever the hell sheets has.
  13. I'd imagine this is like the Clemens situation of 2 years ago where you will have to keep him on your active roster and can't DL him because he's not even on a team's DL. ok, that sounds kind of ridiculous.
  14. ghs trades its 2009 8th rounder to nsbb for nsbb's 2010 6th rounder. ben sheets for my 7th round pick.
  15. tim just traded a guy he was maybe going to trade to me, so i need to wait on him for a minute to see if we still have a deal. if not, i'll pick right away...
  16. i know who i'm taking if we can't work it out.
  17. i'll wait a bit for trade offers.
  18. seeing how people seem to be scrambling to fill their rosters, i'll make my 7th rounder (next pick) and 8th rounder (fourth pick of the round) available. i'm inclined to keep my 7th rounder, but i'll probably dump my 8th rounder for the best offer...looking for picks in next year's draft or prospects.
  19. justin duchscherererererererer.
  20. hey, how about that...just in time to pick. scott baker.
  21. i thought for sure i'd go again today. i'll be out from 5 cst until late tonight, if at all.
  22. i figure between choo and murphy one of them will suck and one of them will be acceptable as my third OF.
  23. man, you are going to be all over the waiver wire before the season starts.
  24. I can't agree to that.. :) I think you have ample support here though that says the people agree he's exempt. I haven't gotten a response back from Juan yet. Do you want to wait to make it final until I get the clarification? juan picks in four picks, so he nixes it, we can just go back to my pick. everyone cool with that?
  25. all right, if everyone agrees to restart the entire draft and give me two of your draft picks if choo is not exempt... i pick choo.
