Perfect!!

[LA Dodgers]

So what do we do between 10-14 and 10.20??? Can we at least open the trade market say the 14th??

We need time to update the ssheets after the final rosters. We need time to compile the final list of free agents. Time to update the minor league rosters. Pitts, Minn and myself need this period to complete all and anything else we need to do to prepare for the auction and the new year.
Just chill and relax. You can always contact the other managers and talk trade.

[LA Dodgers]

Ok. Totally understand and wasnt trying to sound like an ass.

[Admin]

hey la no problem. always love to see the enthusiasm for the league. its just time consuming plus we all have to work. we usually finish early but need to pad extra days just in case.

[LA Dodgers]

Sounds good to me. U guys do so much for the league and really appreicate it.

Blind bids opening today? Wed? 1 week from today?

Lets take a few week. Definitely after MiLB draft.

[LA Dodgers]

Wavier wire too?

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

No waivers yet. No blind bids this week.
The auction just ended and MiLB is still in progress. We've got 3.5 months until opening day.

Let's give everyone a chance to have a Cashman break for a week after the MiLB draft.

Blind bids can start Sunday, Feb 5. Super bowl sunday I believe.

!OPA!

[Detroit]

Please confirm that I have this correct, but waivers will not start when blind bidding starts, correct? They will start sometime after everyone has a full 25 man roster, right?

[Minnesota Twins]

Yessir

i believe we opened waivers last year when the blinds started
iirc people wanted waivers earlier, me too.
you dont need 25 players until yahoo opens and pitts fills out rosters THEN you need 25
