*Free agent deadline changing*

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

As part of the ongoing shift of duties from Chicago to me, and in recognition that Chicago has a new job that makes the 6pm deadline difficult, I am changing the FA deadline to 9AM starting on Sunday.

Today's deadline does not change. You still have until 6pm to send your bids to the usual place.

But after today, the deadlines will always be 9am (Central Time). The earlier deadline gives me more time to get the changes into the Yahoo system so you can have your lineups changed for the following day.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Just to be crystal it is going to be 9AM on Wednesdays and 9AM on Sundays after tonight, correct?

Check me if I'm wrong but in Yahoo Baseball this season when you add someone from FA they go to your team same day instead of next as in the past. No worries about the time though. Make it's what's best to have things run smoothly.

that could be true. i wasnt aware of that. but there are other reasons for moving it to 9am as well.
