This actually leaves the door open for someone with buyer's remorse to purposely try to get a deal reversed. Not saying someone would do that... but you know, shite happens.

exactly

and with the way other people's opinions are expressed after every trade ... nope, don't like option 2 or 3

Option 3 is the way to go

option 3 still reverses the trade. I want to avoid that.

draft pick penalty was the first thing I thought of. but then you have an owner like me who never owns a pick

ETA: Maybe take away an MiLB slot. I suggested that last year as a punishment and got, well, ridiculed for it.

But I think that is impactful for just about every owner -- rebuilder and contender.

Will someone blatantly disregard the 24 hour rule? I don’t see it getting there. With the pressure of 5 commissioners etc. You can lock their add/drops for the remainder of the offseason or something if they break it

To me It’s making a transaction with an illegal lineup

I don’t see how we can allow anyone to trade, make an add drop, or sit on an illegal lineup for an extended period of time

I just dont want a rule that doesn't allow for other league members to opine of a completed trade, then leaving an owner the option of backing out of a deal once they receive more opinions.

I think there’s a greater chance of an owner not reversing one of your trades that you mistakenly accept than there is of that scenario actually happening.

That was a half jab at your goofs

I am going to propose that we add this to the constitution:


During the offseason, when a trade results in a team having an illegal roster, the owner of said team must make the roster legal within 24 hours of deal being accepted. No trading will be allowed by that team until then. Failure to make the roster legal will result in a 1 week in-season suspension of add/drop privileges for each 24 hour period that passes with an illegal roster.

(we can actually use fantrax to lock someone out of transactions for a given period).


If you would vote for this rule, please upvote. If not, please downvote and give reasons why. If this gets enough support on here tonight, I will put it up for an official vote later tonight or tomorrow morning. Since it is a new rule, it would need a majority of those that actually vote in order to pass.

then it needs to be a three team trade processed all at the same time.
