kdpnutter Not gonna tell you how to run your team by any means. Just not sure if you understand that you have a 40 man roster. This means that any player with a major league contract needs to be on the 40 man. By my estimates you currently have 60 players with Major League contracts. You do know they won't be able to stay on DFA forever right?
Yeah, noticed that last night, working on DFA guys to get them off the 40 man roster and into the minors. If they get claimed well they get claimed but yeah noticed that last night when I was trying to get guys on, apparently Ludlow was given a major league deal so I cant get him off (he would be claimed in a heartbeat). Trying to get guys through waivers as best I can to clear space off the 40 man roster. My bad on that one.
Fair enough. Just keep in mind, if their DFA timer is out and the simmer is unable to assign them somewhere, they are cut and you eat that salary.
Understood, I have a lot of open slots on the minors, thats where a lot of those guys that unfortunately came onto the 40 man roster were supposed to be for is the minors. If they arent assigned a slot within there 50 days that is has, after that 50 days I am able to put them into the minors correct? This time frame thing works different than it does in the offline or in Nippon.
I don't think anyone can claim anyone of waivers until after spring training. Is that correct PAgamer07 if so then nutter you should be good.
Waivers are disabled now correct (forgot). But I dont believe they can be taking off DFA without being placed on the 40 man roster though. So essentially, since waivers is disabled the only way to get rid of the excess is to release them.
Blah, well I'm taking guys from the MLB/AAA group that were already on the 40 man and DFA them and putting the guys that were on DFA and putting them on the 40 so they've had time on the 40 and then i can DFA them and put them in the minors without being on the 40 man roster. Logistically does that work?
schedules done and NBL expanded to 4 playoff teams. Youre welcome. File up. Tomorrow, we sim to spring training. Monday night, we sim ST in entirety. Opening Day Tuesday.
Apparently my post didn't go through last night i probably won't be able to get tonight's sim in either. Will be back in action after tonight though. Also, signed Donnely and Garza, hopefully they can be solid pieces for me this year.
