Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

What about all the teams that just started clocks on guys that didn’t need to? It really don’t start their clocks. When someone is placed on the 40 man all that really means is they begin 3 years known as the option years. In theory you can hold someone on your 40 man for 9 seasons after placing th...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

I would kill it this year because teams didn’t have the opportunity to plan ahead losing a year unexpectedly. But it needs put back into December next year so this don’t happen again.

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

True, Kevin...if you pick through the whole transaction change, you can find them. But you can't just scan the log and know if a player was moved from waivers or not. There is some clue in the language...a player "optioned" to AAA was not waived first. A player "assigned" was likely designated for ...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

But those guys you waive are still rule5 eligible, so they are free of being claimed on waivers, they are not protected from Rule 5. For example let’s say I decided to waive Jim Antolin. As of this file he is not in the draft pool so nobody has the opportunity to put him in their draft list because...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

I don’t follow. Every single player not on a 40 man that meets the requirements is eligible. Even if they are on waivers they can still be rule 5 drafted. If they squeak through waivers because of the waiver length issue sure no one can waiver claim them but they are still rule 5 eligible and not p...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

Moving it to January probably caused this issue for sure. Usually rule 5 is December

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

That is an issue and also several teams already have the 40 man full or close to full and have a few guys in the draft pool they might protect. In order to protect those guys they must be put on the 40 man with a corresponding move to remove someone on the 40 man. Because we have been simming more ...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

We can fix the waiver issue this sim. The other issues can’t really do much at this point.

My best catching prospect, Angelo Deluccio, has been suspended 80 games for PED use and his popularity says he is now "disliked". Can't say I've ever seen that before.
That’s terrible

Re: 2041, Winter Meetings/FA Sim #3

The penalty is pretty severe if you go over, I believe if you spend 2 million it actually cost you 4 mill or something like that. The challenge for someone like myself is because that penalty is so severe it impacts my ability to acquire talent for the big club at the same time due to my budget. Tea...

Re: 2041, FA Sim #2 Chatter

We really need to fix the Waiver period again for the offseason. We are simming 14 days but waivers is only 8 days so nobody actually shows up on waivers.
