| Message | i understand your frustration noel but the constitution is clear. our rosters are to be filled with very specific positional players. its in the rules: 5 starters, 5 relievers and all the batters. no room for latitude. years ago i advocated for what you are saying.. having more flexibility for pitchers but as it is its a concrete rule. its not about your organizing anything its that we want our rosters to be very specifically set. i mean if harold couldn't pick 5 dead pitchers (which there was no real rule against) do you really think you'd be allowed to move a starter into a reliever spot? this is a good future debate point, noel, but there is simply no way our rules allow what you propose. but as you say.. it is up to the commish to interpret the constitution. |

| Message | I am confused why someone else gets to tell me how I can organize my own roster which I picked on draft day. If I wanted to put Joba in for Ryan Howard you would all have no problem as I would be making a foolish move and foresure loose all of Joba and Howards points. As I make a productive move with a unique roster that I am fortunate to have, I am told it is not fair. A pitcher for a pitcher on my team is not allowed? No roster moves, just organization? In the majors they are allowed to demote to the bullpen and have people make spot starts even, but I am not with my own roster???? If a manager runs out of pitchers, he can use positioial players who are not appart of the pitching roster to fill in. Remember the Canseco arm injury because of decisions like this? I see no reason for me to even manage my own team if I and others are going to be told what to do with our team with all due respect. If I pick a team and have a roster I should be able to organize my players as I see fit for good or bad. Again I am not tryiung to be mean here but why dont we change the name to the ULCBR..

| Message | Soory about the long message but the message bourd thought that the word "sour" which I had used in part of a now deleted rant was "inappropriate and I had to cut and paste until I found out which word would not let me post my message. |

| Message | There is no reason to not let me have the statistics, I had a pitcher and a spot for him to earn them. |

| Message | I await an answer from our real commish, and Dan, you need to take some time and make a careful choice on this one as I am serious. |

| Message | This is something that needs to be addressed and needs to be reconsidered this year in this case. I am not accepting it this time, I have had too many over rulings in the past and this one is in need of reconsideration. |

| Message | If I choose to put a starter in as a reliever it is my choice. I should be able to put any player in at any position and suffer the consequences of not having him acieve any usable stats, especially if he is injured. I am not sure why I cannot take a perfectly good starter and place him into the starting line up and mover a injured pitcher into the bullpen and not collect any stats that are usable. It seems like a risky poick to take Joba anyway who could start at any time and also fortunate that I had the option of moving him into the starting role. |

| Message | the adjustments are on the yahoo page on the messages along with all the roster moves. It's pretty clear, you couldn't make the switch because Bucholz was not a relief pitcher at the time, he was an injured starter. Bucholz did not make a relief appearance until august 17th, he pitched one inning, his only relief appearance to date this year. Aaron Harang and Edinson Volquez have more relief IP this year. Bottom line Bucholz is a starter, not rp eligible, and you have only yourself to blame as you had roster moves to spare at the time but did not use them, and the ruling was explained to you in mid season as well, so if this gives me 3rd place then thank you.  |

| Message | I'm inb for the 27th. Also, Can someone fill me in on what adjustments are to be attatched to Joba? I still think it is a load of crap that any adjustments should be made at all as its ridiculous that I could not put him into the starters role and have bucholts in a relief role. I am filing an official protest. |
