Earl has voted. The motion passes with 14 in favor.

I will add the amendment to the constitution.

I am now posting a poll regarding expanding the MLB roster by one reserve slot.

So will there be 3 draft picks next year or will it be a free for all after the season?

No. Still two draft picks, but the slot will be added at the beginning of that draft.

If anyone has any other rule changes or additions to propose, now is the time to do so.

Would be cool to have a set amount of "options" to send guys to/from minors to majors.

You'd have to commit about calling guys up and not just stream between the two lineups

I almost sent you a very similar proposal earlier.

So, that'll work.

I agree this would be pretty cool... if it was something that Fantrax could monitor and not something that would have to be monitored ourselves.

Yeah, there is no way for fantrax to manage this. I just looked into it.

Thatd be the only way to make it work.

Its just kind of a cheap, but legal, way to manipulate your lineup and get extra IPs/ABs.

It's not that big of an issue, would be a neat feature.

Are we talking about moving players up and down from Minors to Majors, essentially having a larger MLB roster size?

I said at the end of last year I think we should lower the requirements to allow players to be MiLB eligible, like 150 to 130, or whatever the number is.

But I also don't have a lot of guys that are dual MiLB and MLB eligible, so I didn't want to speak up too much about it. Makes it look like I'm whining.

i dont think it's cheap, i think it's strategic.

if the player is worth a shite, he wont be MiLB eligible forever, and you still gotta make a decision on them eventually. it's still a short term plan

The motion to add an extra reserve slot to the MLB roster has failed.

Anything else we need to discuss or vote on? We've still got plenty of time.

Clarify this new MiLB roster for me.

We going up 1 extra per year, starting in next year's draft? Adding an additional slot every year for next three years?

Correct.

2017-10 minor leaguers
2018-11 minor leaguers
2019-12 minor leaguers
2020 and beyond-13 minor leaguers

interesting. seems really reactionary this early on in a dynasty.

if that's what the people wanted, then OK
