Had a few questions from newbs so I thought we should list them.
Left to answer/confirm:
2. Dates:
a) MILB draft to begin
b) rosters to be updated and checked
c) trading to open
d) MLB UFA opening,
e) after MILB draft - opening of free add/drops on fantrax for MILB eligibles.
3. COs are only available for players chosen to your 3-non-rolls. If the player was not one of your 3-non-rolls, then their 2021 salary is considered locked/guaranteed.
4. Money traded follows the roll schedule of said player? (admin to confirm)
5. playoff bonus apply for 2021? If so, is the 2019 playoff status the qualification or the 2020 playoffs?
6. position eligibility - to pro-rate down for shorter season = 60 games * 20/162 = 7.4, so round up to 8gms
8. Schedule set up to revert back to face one team per week
Answered:
1. what is the 2021 draft order (draft in Jan-2022)? After we decided to roll contracts and get rid of the buy in and prize, but play out the season 'for fun', many GMs did not pay attention to fantrax. We could use the 2020 results regardless, as usual, or revert to 2019 results? Or some other method? TBD
Answer: 2021 draft order appears set, it is based on 2020 results
7. free drop for new GMs?
Answer: confirmed one free drop. Place in waiver thread with notation of the new owner drop.
9. To confirm if dodgers and orioles name change has been applied to 2020 and 2021 draft.
Confirmed.
