Another question is, how do minors adds work on fantrax? Do they count against the weekly adds limit, and are they on the same waiver system as active pkayers? Can we start adding them when active adds open, provided that you don't add anyone drafted in 2020 or eligible to be drafted in 2021?

Remember roster limits are 40 total with 15 minors. Anyone that is above that needs to be at that come 1 pitch on opening day. Obviously we will need to come to some kind of resolution on the 2020 & 2021 minors draft and roster limits at some point between now and MLB's June 1st year players draft.

Well the draft is finally over....sort of? Not sure how we're handling the few picks that the system skipped in round 10. I believe we are just rolling with it at this point. One more thing we should rectify prior to next years draft. Quite frankly it was probably just a gap on our league setup. That's to say, we have always had roster limits but we have also always allowed owners to acquire draft picks that put a roster over 40.

Another fantastic question...we need to research what options are available to us with the league software. Without looking I'd bet they count towards your weekly transactions.

I also am in agreement with TORCH and defer to the league software. Anything to keep us from tracking data outside of the system.

All non owned players are on waivers until Wednesday. So they can be claimed at your discretion. should they roster immediately? Players go on waivers for 24 hours. The draft was completed just before 8pm est, that's when waivers will run. Then they are assigned based on the standard waiver rules we have always used. If you put in a claim, it actually tells what time it will process, assuming you are awarded said player.

FYI to all, I have the schedule adjusted to the correct amount of in division out of division matchups and the weekly periods. I still need to look at the weekly matchups, as in currently the last 3 weeks are all out of division which isn't ideal. I'm gonna try my darndest to get that done tomorrow night...I'm just spent for the evening.

I'm gonna try my darndest to get that done tomorrow night...I'm just spent for the evening. If it's as simple as drag and drop, you could take those last 3 weeks and spread them out across the season. Say put one at opening day, one near the middle of the season and leve the last one where it is. But if you would have to manually edit every single week to accomplish this I'd say the hell with it and leave it as is. Also, I still like the idea of putting the two teams you only play once on the two long weeks, though it's probably too late and too much work to try and make happen for this year.

Unfortunately its not drag and drop. One of the last things I did last night was to write down each individual weeks. Assuming work doesn't turn into an 18hr day, I should be able to make the adjustments after work.

Also did we decide on how we are treating minor eligible players drafted in the active draft being placed on our minor rosters?

I tweaked it a bit so the last 2 weeks are in divison games....I think... the margaritsas are hitting hard tonight....

And we've already got some postponments, one due to weather and one due to covid.
The NYM @ WSH game (covid) shows up as PPD on Fantrax under players for those teams, but for some reason BAL @ BOS (rain) just doesn't show up at all, as if it had been a regularly scheduled off day.

It would be nice if we did have some rule that was agreed upon for moving minors during the season. It should at least cost a tranny I think. Not sure what's built into Fantrax.

I would like to wish everyone good luck on opening day BUT I'M NOT GOING TO. That draft was awful, you're all a bunch of a$$holes. I hope your prospects go sightseeing in the Dominican on a double decker tour bus during rush hour with an insulin deprived driver. D!ck$.

Not sure what's built into Fantrax. A minor pick up currently counts as a transaction. I mean moving a minor from my minors roster to my active roster. Otherwise I could have a collection of minors eligible pitchers that are in the majors and stream them each week, promoting them the day of their start and back down after. I saw on Fantrax: www.fantrax.com/faq/roster There are several criteria that your league's Commissioner can configure to determine when a player is eligible to be moved to the Minors slot in the Team Roster screen. This criteria, which can be found in the Rosters section in the League Rules Summary screen, includes:
1) Whether or not the player is in the (real-life) minor leagues, inactive or a free agent. A green flag will appear next to a player's name if he belongs to any of the above 3 statuses. 2) The player's age. 3) The player's total number of career games played.
My vote would be to remove #2 and #3 and then it would mirror real baseball. You can keep a minor on your minor rosters once they lose eligibility, but you can only move them back once they re-gain it, like if they got demoted in real life. And then we could enforce #2 and #3 in the off-season as usual with forced promotions.
