Whatever you don't want to do is what you do.

Well primarily I just don't want to break any rules, so I guess that means I'll go for it.
A less obtuse way of asking my question would be: does a player's current minor league status override the innings limits and qualify him as a minor leaguer? I think I have seen this invoked during the season but it doesn't seem to be spelled out in the rules.

The way I understand it is. If a player is sent to the minors in real MLB, he can be sent to the minors here throughout the off season. But, when we do our roster audits, if that player has exceeded the PA or IP thresholds, he must be promoted to your 31 man roster.
If that makes sense.

Just curious -- If I were to drop someone from my roster this offseason that I have not owned for a year, which salary would I have to pay half of -- last year's, or what he's signed for next year? I would assume next season's since the season if officially over, but the rules say "will still hold the penalty for dropping (1/2 the previous year's salary)".

Most players we don't know what their salary will be for next year. |

Ok, cool -- so when does the penalty change to being based on next year's salary? When next season actually starts?
I know this sounds like trivial details but it could make a big difference for me with all the contracts flying around.

you are correct. Any player dropped this offseason, if they weren't owned for the full 2014 season then the penalty that applies is based on the 2014 salary.

Q: At the end of last year, Mat Latos was released by the Dodgers and signed by the Angels. It says on Cot's that he signed with them but not what it was for, although it's usually the minimum with his old team paying his old contract. This site says it was $507k. www.spotrac.com/mlb/los-angeles-angels/mat-latos/ So on here, did he reprice to the minimum? Ah, LA times says. "The Angels need only pay Latos the prorated portion of the major league minimum -- that is, about $19,600. He would be eligible to pitch in tiebreaker games -- the Angels enter play Monday one-half game out of a wild-card spot -- but would not be eligible to pitch in postseason games. He will be a free agent after the season." Just seems like a bit of a cheap one when he's still getting paid the full amount by someone that year although technically it's a new contract and not sure I've seen that kind of thing go by before. |

Yes, minimum for now and will obviously reprice when he signs.

Can you put minor-league players on the DL?

Can you put minor-league players on the DL? Like a MiLB player on your MLB DL? Or do you mean can you put a MiLB player on a fictitious MiLB DL and they not count against your 60 roster limit? |

Haha, pretty sure the fictitious MILB DL wouldn't fly any direction except straight down. I mean a milb player on your MLB DL. I'm thinking not but it's not really clear and it does cost you money (and some guys end up on nebulous rehab assignments) so thought I'd ask.

Why not? We allow major league FA injured & suspended players on the 60 man.

We have previously only allowed guys genuinely on MLB DL (ESPN) on our MLB DL.

As long as they're legitimately on the DL I see no reason not to allow it. If you can back it up with some evidence of DL eligibility, then sure. ESPN obviously is the easy way to do that.
