My view on it is that a locked roster is a pretty severe penalty that makes it impossible to compete, so I don’t see a need to put a time limit on it. The only time I see this becoming a problem is when a team no longer has an incentive to compete in the current season (so the roster lock penalty no longer has any bite), but I’m not sure a rebuilding team would have anything to gain by doing this as long as there’s a rule that all rosters must be valid by the end of the season.

I actually don't think the rules are clear at all on this. Rules I.b., I.c. and V.d. all deal with breaches of salary cap and/or roster limits, but they're not internally consistent. To me, Rule V.d. is the most relevant to this situation, but it does not address the key question of how long is too long for an invalid roster. (Note that Rule I.b. is not actually applicable here as it speaks only to breaches of the salary cap, not the roster limit, and UCL has not breached the salary cap).

I think locked rosters are the default “penalty” and that seems pretty clear.

I'm cool cutting if everyone is upset. I am a commish in another league and have had a manager invalid and waiting on IL moves since the 14th (longer than I have been invalid here) - I have not said anything to them as I understand their intent. Rule 1B is pretty clear that the penalty for invalid roster is locked roster moves, this is PEAK move season and sitting out is a costly option and personal preference. If you folks disagree I'll happily make valid tonight, otherwise I await IL moves.

please share your interpretation of how you would like to see this situation handled in our league, this has historically been a league dependent decision so we’d like to hear from you all.

Hey all! UCL and I are at an impasse of the interpretation of Rule 1b. It’s my understanding historically that getting legal within a 24-48 hr window is an appropriate way to interpret the penalties of having an illegal roster even though that time limit isn’t explicitly stated. The other take is that the penalty of not being able to sell lineups or bid on FA is enough and the mngr shall wait to make cuts at their convenience, waiting for IL hits, etc.

I've long felt that there's only room for one Tommy John Surgery related name in this league.
