games played - inn pitched

[Deleted]

i'm good with 1250-1300 for ip.
the 'in total' for games played is a good idea. i would be in favor of 1200-1250 tgp. that should be easily attained even with injuries to key players and rostering only 1 catcher.

It would also help if we did the long term DL thing. Fewer excuses about missing the limits.

I say no minimum, it is not needed.

[Detroit]

I also say no minimum. All teams will compete...

I would suggest to lower the max innings pitched limit. This would prevent teams from adding pitchers they normally wouldn't add, just because they have the innings available....very commonly done in ROTO leagues.

If we lowered the limit a bit, it would be more competitive.

My vote goes for no change, but seeing as how i dont plan on being affected i also dont rly care. Twins dont rebuild they reload!

[torontobluejays]

I like the Twins' philosophy.

Ok, soooooo it's definitely not unanimous as far as the innings/games limits go. I guess this means the status quo stays for the current season. The status quo being that Chicago and I keep our eyes on the league and use our best judgment to keep potential tankers in line.

As for the long term DL...do you guys want to create that class of players? I'd need to make a modification to the spreadsheet...not too hard I don't think. I believe I posted the potential rules earlier in this thread.

I like creating, but limiting the long term DL spots per team to something like 3....much like extra waiver spots. I don't think most teams would ever need more.

I vote "yay" to such an amendment.

I vote.No on long term DL. We already have 3 WW spots and get 5 DL spots, allowing for a maximum of 33 players. That is more than enough to have. Long term DL spots allow forhoarding players. I have had as many as 11 guys on the DL at once, seeMed like every pitcher i sivned In 2011 got hurt. I survived the season without the long term DL spots.

[Minnesota Twins]

I vote no change. If you want to hold onto a TJ pitcher you can use a waiver wire spot

[ex-Pittsburgh Pirates]

I think the rules I proposed would prevent hoarding. But point taken.

[Minnesota Twins]

Nothing ever decided here...
