c) Once a player has played in a MLB game, he can be moved back and forth from the minors to the active roster until the threshold is hit. Once that happens, the player can no longer be placed on a minor league roster, even if the player is actually no longer on an MLB active roster.

I also wanted to point out in order to do this, unless there's already some who's considered a "minor leaguer" on your active roster, people are going to be forced to cut players.

Obviously.

And you seriously thought it was kosher to put Coco Crisp on your minor league roster because fantrax didn't block you?

Yes, if you have a minor league player hit the threshold, and can't move someone you have active to a MiLB spot, you are going to have to cut someone. Either the minor leaguer in question or an active player to make room. And you are going to have to pick up a minors eligible player to keep your roster legal as well.

Although maybe not on the last part since Redd changed it to allow illegal rosters for the purpose of adds/drops. You might be fine with under the max 10 minors guys.

I do want to post one last thing on the matter. Whenever my lineup is illegal, I get one of these in my e-mail.

Hi papz,

Your roster for period 34 (May 8, 2015) for your team Captain Kickass in the FSB Dynasty League league is illegal. You can click on the link below to go to your team roster page to fix this.

Now while many will feel as if I tried to exploit the rule, and maybe I did to some degree, I did so because I felt it was legal and it was allowed as I never received one of these during that time.

Obviously money is on the line and some of my opponents will want all the extra wins they can get... and rightfully so. I get it. With that said, I misinterpreted the rules and did not intentionally try to "cheat" anyone as I felt I was operating within the rules. It was allowed by fantrax and I took full advantage of it as it didn't make my lineup illegal.

The defense rest.
