| Message | Crazy how big a part injuries play in ULB. Looking at the team I drafted last year i finished dead last in power, this year would be on pace to hit over 300 home runs, Doumit/Howard/Pedroia/Hanley/Zimmerman/Ramirez/Hamilton/Hart/Quentin/Vlad. |

| Message | I'm with Harold. I would like to have the final roster at years end as my possible signable contracts. It would make sense. Maybe an additional dollar or something to any traded player during the season for a contract. either way lets open it up here. |

| Message | they're done, you just have to click on tomorrows date when viewing your team to see them in place. Check your teams and let me know if its right, I might have missed something. |

| Message | Maybe I'm on my own on this one but I wouldn't mind getting rid of the rule that says once a player has been traded during the season that he can't be signed. I know this opens up the possibility of a bottom team trading a stud for a signable prospect but I also thinks it adds some realism. Thoughts? |

| Message | don's right (i hate that).. changing rules midway thru the season should not be done... let's put harold's deal in yahoo the simple way for tim's sake.. but officially it goes down the complicated way. effective this offseason the midseason pick cap of three picks is removed. check the page for a couple other rules to ponder changing for 2011.. |

| Message | Interesting that the guy Rob dropped (Escobar) and the guy he picked up (Gonzalez) just got traded for each other.... |

| Message | i see that the deal could have been done anyway.. that's fine.. and its true that is a rule that can probably be axed. but you can't do rule changes like that mid season. you can't just decide on the fly part of our constitution can be thrown out. this deal was fine.. like you say.. but rules are there for a reason. (just like 6 years ago when jeff and i did a deal and accidently traded a 2nd basemen for a SS and somehow thought that would work.. well, it did work b/c we didn't notice and neither did anyone else. but it shouldn't have gone through.) sure i'm a stickler, whatever. (and what's with rules always changing on the fly with harold? one time he does a perfectly legal (though terrible) stategy which we decide somehow is not fair and make him pick new starters. but when he actually accidently breaks a real rule that's ok! hilarious.) |

| Message | Even if we don't allow it now there were still other complicated ways to do the deal just with a whole lot of extra work on my end to make multiple trades, Pat could have just selected the guy and then traded him to Harold in a seperate deal...thats why I was fine with it, there were still ways to make all those moves happen within the restraints of the pool rules. As for next year I see no reason to have a limit on midseason moves or on bench spots |

| Message | i'm struggling to find rationale for a 3 pick max at midseason. it's an old rule that might have made sense at the time. it restricts trading options. the midseason isn't what it used to be. what's the rationale for keeping the rule? other than pulling it within half an hour seems hasty. every 10 years or so i get to make a cowboy type decision as commish. that's why i signed up in the first place.  |
