Do we have to pay: The current outstanding Premium League fee balance for the full league is $99.95. Your share would be $10.0 for this 10-team league when filled. Please pay by Thursday April 22, 2021 to avoid any service disruption or downgrade to a Standard/Free league. ? I got the fee waived for this season.

I do like how it sends you an email when you are on deck and then up. I liked the having the ability to go into the draft room yesterday and populate my queue.

Should be 20 regular season scoring periods. 4 intra-division x 3 = 12 3 inter-division x 2 = 6 2 inter-division x 1 = 2 1 - April 1-11 (11 days due to mid week opening day) 2 - April 12-18 3 - April 19-25 4 - April 26-May 2 5 - May 3-9 6 - May 10-16 7 - May 17-23 8 - May 24-30 9 - May 31-June 6 10 - June 7-13 11 - June 14-20 12 - June 21-27 13 - June 28-July 4 14 - July 5-11 15 - July 12-25 (2 weeks due to All star break, ASG is July 13) 16 - July 26-Aug 1 17 - Aug 2-8 18 - Aug 9-15 19 - Aug 16-22 20 - Aug 23-29 SF - Aug 30-Sep 12 (2 weeks) Ch - Sep 13-Sep 26 (2 weeks) (nothing during the final week of the MLB regular season (Sep 27-Oct 3) I have the scoring periods correct other than the end date(10/3 vs. 9/26). Apparently we can't change that while the draft is running. We will be able to correct that afterwards. Still working on the schedule, my little cheat website I found doesn't like our out of division matchups of playing 3 teams twice and 2 teams once.

In order to not be a Pronk, how do I know what guys I am not allowed to draft? first year guys that is It's been awhile since we did this. Best way is to jump out of the draft room and search for the player under the players tab. Click the name, and if you are mobile there is a "more" button that pulls up the players draft year. I know it's in a similar place on desktop.

Ugh...I must be misunderstanding how to schedule the playoffs right. That setting backed it into 17 weeks not 20. Plus I never noticed the dates. I'll have to dig back into it once I hit the queen city in a couple of hours.

The more I think on it, I probably lean towards a separate draft for minors as we have been doing. Either way we have to manage player eligibility to be rostered.
Plus I guess I lean towards SOUTH's original mention of 2020's MLB draft class being pushed off until a midseason minor draft. Doing that is somewhat similar to us rolling over the draft picks from 2020 to '21. And if we wanted to go to 1 draft we could figure out over the course of the season how to best implement going forward.

We live drafting? I was wondering if the site had a slow draft option? CBS allows you to pick without a timer. So it would be a live no timed draft and we finished 25 rounds in 4 days in another league. The site does have a slow draft option with a whole host of timer options. I would assume that's what we would do since we have always done it that way.

My thoughts: I would be pretty disappointed if the trades got thrown out given I traded significant material on my team to acquire them. It was part of my strategy in 2019 and doesn't make sense that we would just throw out part of my team's assets because it was technically listed as "2020" when the intention was the next held active draft. If we are going to throw out some stuff and not others, I would think we've reached the time for a complete re-draft. I agree.... I would like to see the 2020 traded picks become "2021" picks. It helps that no one traded a 2021 active draft pick in 2019. The only 2021 pick that was traded in 2019 was a 2021 minor pick swap between me and SOUTH where SOUTH had his choice. My 2 cents...

Can you share it? Just curious to see. Obviously dont remember at all Ask you shall receive.... Hope this makes sense, NOSF doesn't like inputting spreadsheets very well. There are 3 columns: Trade Transaction # and the team owners name involved in the trade. The transaction # is just an identifier I used for reference to make sure we had all the picks accounted for going into a draft. Let me know if there are any questions. Trade Transaction #

Do we have record of the traded picks since the espn league is gone? Yes...I tracked that on a separate spreadsheet similar to the org chart. Thankfully Fantrax will do it for us going forward.

Is the draft order on Fantrax correct? Also, I'm owed some draft picks from previous trades that I don't see reflected in that, is that all going to get update at some point? Please and thank you. The order is not correct on Fantrax yet as SOUTH has not run the lottery yet. Thought he might do it this weekend but alas, it has not happened. As for traded draft picks, you bring up an interesting point. At the end of the 2019 season, only one 2021 had been traded. That leaves us with what to do with the 2020 picks. Roll them over to '21....throw them out....Sounds like a good topic for league discussion imo.

Everyone's current roster is protected whenever South executes the keeper rollover.

I figured out the reason I couldn't find the keeper admin was because my desktop bookmark was taking me to the 2020 league. (On mobile I'm on the 2021 league but I still haven't been able to find the keeper page on that version) Now that I'm at the desktop keeper admin, it won't let me select any keepers: "The deadline to finalize your keepers has passed, so you can no longer change them. The deadline was at Sun Mar 7, 2021 11:59 PM EST. Players will only be dropped once the Keeper Rollover is executed for this league." Well that's good to know. My guess is if the site forces the commissioner to execute the keeper rollover he will have to manually select them prior to executing the rollover.

I do see a message on the league home page saying the keeper deadline is march 7th. Even though we all have our 30(except BROW) I think we have to physically set our keepers so none of use pull a pronk and have our rosters dropped on the 7th. What ended up happening with this? I forgot to set keepers in time, but my roster is still intact. Did you guys set the keepers for any of us who forgot? Did the deadline pass without anything happening? Did you move the date forward? I went to look for how to set keepers this morning and couldn't find it on either the desktop or mobile site. Apparently the commissioner has to manually "push" the keepers through. It's an option that at I did not see at 1st. I have not heard from SOUTH on it so at this point I would not worry too much as everyone's rosters are still intact. FYI - Keeper admin is under the TEAM tab. I will create a post on the league board with some pictures as a bit of a training exercise.

I'm also good with not having to use a spreadsheet ever again. But I do have a few questions in regard to the minors. Do we know if we will have to promote those players as soon as they hit that mark during the season? Also i tried adding the players left off my roster but couldn't add them. Not rostered are pitchers Luke Weaver and Julio Urias as well as hitters Cody Bellinger, David Dahl and Minors Luis Urias and Bryson Scott. I can answer at least some of your questions. 1st - player eligibility if/when they it the AB/IP limits mid-season. The following is copied from Fantrax on the options available. Minors Enforcement Type This feature is used to force team owners to move players out of the Minors slot, once they become ineligible to be in the minors, according to your minor league eligibility rules, after the grace period selected below. None The system will not enforce any minor league restriction, meaning that players who are no longer minor leaguers can be kept in the Minors roster slot for as long as the owner wants. Violations however will still be shown in the Team --> Roster Violations screen, which is also displayed for all other options. Make roster illegal After the grace period has passed, the team's roster will become illegal, and will continue to be illegal for all periods thereafter, until the player in question is moved out of the Minors slot. Automatically drop player After the grace period has passed, the player in question will automatically be dropped by the system into the available player pool. The actual time of the drop is variable and is typically from 0 to 6 hours after the grace period has passed. If you have the Prevent Illegal Rosters rule is set to Always when using this option, then that player will not be dropped if that drop would result in an illegal roster. Lock claims and trades After the grace period has passed, the owner will be prevented from attempting to make claims and trades. Claims that are already pending, such as waiver claims, will not be cancelled and will get processed normally. Lock all transactions After the grace period has passed, the owner will be prevented from attempting to make all transactions except for moving the player out of the minors slot and dropping any player. Claims that are already pending, such as waiver claims, will not be cancelled and will get processed normally. * If you use Minors Enforcement, you cannot change the eligibility rules once the season starts, however you can override eligibility for any individual player. ** This rule does not apply before the season (i.e. the first period of this league) starts. *** Players are not flagged instantly once they meet or face a restriction, such as reaching a max games played - it could take anywhere from 1 minute to 12 hours.We currently have the None option selected because that best fit our previous rules.
As for your 2nd part about your missing players, I think you can't add them because you currently have 30 pending the upcoming active draft. I'm not entirely sure if the rosters are actually locked(i can't find that setting yet). I still think South has to give a ruling on that but I can see a few ways of correcting it. Such South manually making the adjustments, or make the necessary add/drops post active draft.

When setting up the now defunct 2019 league we learned that Fantrax had a few options on how to qualify a player as minor eligible. They include: Real Life Status Age GP(Games Played) Hitting/Pitching AB(at bats) IP(innings pitched)
The idea was to mimic what we currently did with service time to minimize the change to the whole league. We knew nothing was going to be perfect but we could make it really close.
With that, Real Life Status and Age were out the window immediately. That left GP, AB or IP as options. From there I went back, If I remember correctly 4 years, and looked at every player on the minors roster. I pulled service time GP, AB or IP to make comparisons to the mandatory callups we did have under the previous system then worked on what those mandatory call ups would have looked like under the new options.
The closest set up to mimicking our previous system was to use AB for hitters and IP for pitchers. To be minor eligible, hitters career regular season AB <= 850; pitchers career regular season IP <= 225.
When those values were applied over the previous 4 seasons, 2 of those years, no changes in the mandatory call ups would have happened. In the other 2 seasons there would have been a swap of 3 total players whose eligibility would have changed.
TORCH put it well Fantrax automatically codes each player according to the limits set. If he has a green M he is eligible to be on the minors roster.
To summarize: Hitters minor eligibility is career regular season AB <= 850
Pitchers minor eligibility is career regular season IP <=225
This does not cover our league rule of 1 demotion per season.

Looking at my roster do I add Bellinger, Urias Weaver and Fried after the draft? Also for some reason Brantley does not have OF eligibility. That's a good question for CEO. I'm guessing they were listed as minor eligible last year and graduated off due to playing time.
