I realize this is on a thread for all teams, but this comment is primarily for Dennis.
First off, Dennis. Thank you for proving that I'm not the only one who fine-tooth combs the rules. I thought I did a very good job when I joined this league. Clearly I did not.
I agree that the rules need to be changed to better explain the 'offseason' rules compared to 'beginning of the season' and 'during the MLB season' - Like me, I feel you are a rules stickler (that's a compliment, not sarcasm). People like you and I are needed in the league to keep everyone/everything in check.
"Every offseason we will open free agency on a designated date before the season, and the free agency period will run until the last day of the season." (straight from the rules) - that's stating that those events are between free agency and the last day of the year. When the league opens, that is not the first day of free agency, so those points are not a valid argument.
Every offseason we will open free agency on a designated date before the season, and the free agency period will run until the last day of the season. - Free agent bidding will last 24 hours from the most recent bid, and must be in increments minimum of $0.50, with the initial minimum bid being $1. - All contract lengths must be posted with every bid, but have no bearing on the bidding process. By league vote in 2021 the combination of years and dollars decide the winning bid for acquiring player. Example $5/2 ($10 bid) is a winning bid over $5/1 ($5 bid). - Managers will then have 24 hours to clear a roster space or the managers bid is declared invalid. A $1 cap penalty will be be declared for all teams that do not clear a roster spot within 24 hours. - All teams must have the necessary salary cap space available when placing any free agent bids.
Managers will then have 24 hours to clear a roster space or the managers bid is declared invalid. A $1 cap penalty will be be declared for all teams that do not clear a roster spot within 24 hours.
It says off season free agency, must clear a space for free agent.
But this is not Free Agency yet. When Free Agency opens, then teams must be at the 26 and not go above. THis is kind of a loose eriod where rosters are being sorted out and then you know you have to make adjustments to get to your max of 26 by the February date.
Ryan (Cubs): Today is the last day to re-sign your restricted free agents! All players that are left unsigned will be dropped tomorrow and eligible for free agency

Padres (Rodger): Luis Matos is showing up twice on my roster sheet, as a OF and a SP, can you remove the SP line please.

Pirates (Gregg): Everyone update your Yahoo Roster!

Red Sox (Kris): We still have a MAX 20 prospects, correct?
Feb 26, 2024 9:15:10 GMT -5
Ryan (Cubs): Yes. 20 prospects is the MiLB max, you either need to drop a prospect or call someone up if you are over that limit.
Feb 26, 2024 11:56:08 GMT -5
Red Sox (Kris): I don’t, but I know that some do. So, to be clear, we can draft over the 20 limit as long as we cut down before the season starts?
Feb 29, 2024 23:45:26 GMT -5
Ryan (Cubs): Technically you should be dropping a player anytime a draft pick or trade takes you over the limit of 20. I must've missed it but Yankees needs to release one of his MiLB players, they are the only team over the limit right now

Red Sox (Kris): Thanks for clarifying

Blue Jays (Brandy): Still willing to talk SP......

Rockies (Jose): Is Yuki Matsui rostered?
Mar 12, 2024 16:15:04 GMT -5
Ryan (Cubs): Technically you can't bid on Yuki in free agency until he pitches an inning in the MLB. You could have drafted him in the MiLB draft, but players that haven't made their debut can't be nominated in Free Agency.

Mariners (Rook): I do believe Ronel Blanco free agent final bid of $3/3 by LAD is invalid and the player should be returned to free agency. That was LAD last transaction and it put his cap -0.25. We can’t go negative cap. What say you?

Ryan (Cubs): @mariners, correct. LAD's bid on Blanco put him $.25 over the cap so the bid is invalidated. I've messaged LAD and dropped Blanco from his roster

Ryan (Cubs): NEW FORUM UPDATE: I created a new space to list your Prospect Promotions. A lot of the promotions get lost in the Roster Moves tab. Please post all of your prospect call-ups in the new section and I'll be able to update the page faster!

Ryan (Cubs): Of course D’Arnaud hits 3 HR today…after I put him on waivers
