IL Stashes

[New York Yankees]

Jays, u need to make some roster adjustments…u currently have 4 Active Players stashed on IL. I believe a couple have been Active for close to a Month. 1-2 days can happen, but we really need to monitor r rosters better.

To be fair, I haven’t seen everyone’s roster, so I don’t know if this is just isolated to 1 team or not.

NYY is right Toronto. You need to make your roster valid by the end of the day of I will do it for you.

Several of your IL players have been active for 2 weeks or more.

How many of them have gone back on the IL since NY made this post? If it was my team, at least 2.

I made the drops while I feel I was in the right to keep the players on the IL position. The Charter does not dictate how quickly that a player activated from MLB IL list must be moved to the Cashman active roster. Also, once they went on the IL list, they were no longer active players and do not count against the 25 man roster. They would only become active when they are moved to the bench or a starting position.

Toronto, I suppose it is an unwritten rule, but we have followed this format structure for many years.

Madison Bumgardner has been off of the IL since THE ALL STAR BREAK! As of this morning, was still occupying an IL spot. That’s a month!!!

In other leagues this might be an acceptable practice, but not in this league.

I agree with Detroit & Yankees. Guys can't sit on the IL. I propose 3 day grace period. Players always get dropped and picked back up by someone else all the time.

3 days seems quick. How about 7 days?

I mean, you SHOULD move them sooner, but 7 days is the max. Gives people plenty of chances to check. I know sometimes my guys go on and off the IL by surprise.

I propose as punishment, if someone is caught breaking the rule they have to process FA bids for a month.

I think 3 days is good. We have free agent pickups twice a week (3 & 4 days) and daily moves. Everyone is usually logging in and Yahoo shows IL designation. Also if you have someone else that goes on the IL in that time frame you just swap spots. What's everyone else think??

[Detroit]

Guys, the new rule has been stated. It is 5 days. More than enough time to make a corresponding move.
