re: FSBDL 2018 - MWG is your Champion

I agree with Gyno on this. Seems like an unnecessary change/hassle to have to keep up with.

I vote to drop it to 100 for pitchers in general. It'll allow owners to still be able to manipulate their MiLB with relievers and tighten up it's integrity with those spots as well.

The thought of having a ROOGY/LOOGY still eligible, any reliever to be honest, after 4 or 5 seasons in the majors is pretty ridiculous. That said, I mean if it doesn't pass, I'll have no issues, as well as everyone else, to continue to exploit that.

Who cares if someone wants to roster RPs in their MiLB spot? Everyone can do it; some DGAF about RP and will instead roster something more valuable.

Everyone can stream too gyno.

P are you equating this RP thing to streaming? Eek I really don't want to go there, it being the offseason and all

The MiLB spots will never be used in its purest form, as they were intended.

And there are good MiLB RPs just sitting out there available, no one cares enough to even roster em

I understand the angle you presented. Like I said, Ive been using the RP thing on my team and ive experienced it. You example sounds good in a vacuum but it doesnt really work like that for a few different reasons

You mentioned Carter Capps - he was pitching in the minors in 2015 and he rehabbed there this year. So the guy is being shuffled up and down IRL pretty recent. Another guy I own, Blake Parker, he's 32, made his debut in 2012, but has seen MiLB action as recent as 2016. Another guy i have, Vizacnio, just hit his threshold. But has seen the minors for one reason or another the past 3 seasons

So i guess my rebuttal to you would be - a really good, young RP can burn up his 150 IP in two seasons, basically. Then you have a journeyman guy like Parker, in the league since 2012, 32 y/o, BUT he's still seeing MiLB action. So he has 5 or 6 years in the league and hasnt hit 150 IP - but still going up and down IRL - I can't stash him in MiLB going by your ROOGY/LOOGY scenario.

Ive contended since the beginning no one is breaking rules by streaming, thus i would never question one's integrity. I will question their polish as a manager for having to resort to streaming. In the end, it's not really the person's fault, rather the system in place

i would agree with you that your 100 IP thing would be better than barry's proposal

I like 100!

Germans.

I announced that it passed yesterday.

I like 100. It's a good compromise between SP and RP when some guys go back and forth.
