New Policy for 2015:
To add a player who has exceeded rookie limits of 130AB or 50 IP
1) If the player has exceeded the above rookie limits prior to this season, the player is eligible to added to a any team’s roster once the season begins.
2) We will not count prior ABs or IP from previous seasons if they have not reached 130 AB or 50 IP prior to the start of the season. The player will be deemed eligible for pick-up only if they exceed the 130 AB or 50 IP for the current season.
Ex: Player A gets a call-up in September of the previous season and logs 42 AB or 16 IP. These totals do not accumulate with the current season AB or IP numbers. The AB/IP is re-set to start the season. Player A can only be added by another team once they exceed the 130 AB or 50 IP for this current season.
3) Once a player has reached the magic number of 130 AB or 50 IP for the season, they CANNOT be immediately added at ESPN. You must post your intent to add a player on the thread in the Trade Section. Then a clock of EXACTLY ONE WEEK begins that allows the team who controls the player’s rights to add them at any time during that week. If the team who controls the player’s rights does not add the player, then the team who made the claim on the thread here may add him to their ESPN roster. ONLY the team who successfully made the claim can add the player. This process is to avoid disputes for the owners. People get busy, especially in the summer, and 1 week is more than enough time for you to check in and see if there may be a roster issue.
Ex: Player A reaches 130 AB for the current season on Tuesday, July 14. Team X notices this on Wednesday, July 15. Team X makes a claim on the board here at 1:27pm on Wednesday, July 15. Team Y controls Player A’s rights. Team Y has until 1:27pm on Wednesday, July 22 (1 week later) to add the player, or else Team X may add Player A with no penalty.
4) If a player has exceeded rookie limits of 130 AB or 50 IP, been claimed and added by a team, and then dropped, the player is eligible to be added by any team without the need to go through the one week claim process again.
5) Penalty: If an owner doesn’t follow the above process (Ex: Adds a player at ESPN without making the claim here or waiting the full week), then the owner will not be able to add the player at any time that season. The player then can be added by the team who currently owns his rights, or a claim by a new team can be made.
