phil, you're a good man.

Tom Glavine and BJ Ryan have been very good for my team, literally everyone else is underperforming.

[CopperTom]

And Glavine was the single worst player in the last franchise tourney. 0-8. Grrrrr.

[Norah]

Yeah I passed on Glavine a few times because of the franchise tournament.

I don't have a great knowledge of how waivers work, but unless someone else has a better idea of how to do it, it'll go like this...

Everyone will have twelve hours after the day seventeen games are posted to declare who their one waived player is. Once the twelve hours are up, we'll go through in a draft-style order starting with the last place team and moving up and picking who we want to add to our roster (either out of the waived players or undrafted players). Teams who participate in a trade cannot waive anyone.

Does this work?

Yet you took Teddy Higuera in the second round.

[@SkitchP]

Guys, if we're going to actually consider a trade period we need updated stats.

[numbers]

Mine are updated, I'll send them to Chud tomorrow.

I think we should scrap the drop portion and just go through in a draft. Last place team gets to drop and then add all in one transaction. So the first guy up would only be able to pick up an undrafted player, the second guy up would also have the option of taking the first guys dropped player if he chooses. If doing this I would institute a rule that says if you pick up a player dropped by someone else, you must use the same year. That will prevent me from dropping a shitty version of a player only for skitch to turn around and pick the same player up but use the better year.

If you don't want that last rule in effect you'd have to give each team the opportunity to instead of dropping a player, to use their waiver move to simply change the year of one of their players.

Chud that's ridiculously over complicated. Just go with Laments way. If a guy gets dropped then his year stays with him. There's 8 teams. It should be easy to track.

It's really not complicated at all.

I'm ok with using a single year change for your "transaction."

I am entirely opposed to this. 100%.
