I'd like to drop Edwin Arroyo, SS CIN from my MiLB roster

I'm not sure if the spirit of the 5milb should be 'how good can you pick through prospect depth' as opposed to channeling cost-controlled top prospect talent to the bottom-performing teams... Not sure if anyone else here agrees but I would fully support a change here (and FWIW, I'm raising this at a time when I hopefully won't be in line for another top MiLB pick after this year).

Or to hold them thru the MiLB draft & likely release them before the Auction Draft so someone else might spend resources on a lotto ticket. Either way it seems to limit our strategies over players who (generally) are still unlikely to fulfill their potential anytime soon, and even if they do they're not affordable for long-- Skenes will probably be $20+ after arbitration before he even logs 150 career IP...

I always thought the 5milb was to allow rostering prospects w/out having using an Active spot more than it was to have 'more total prospects' rostered in the league as a whole(?).. Seems like the only strategy then for those of us at the bottom/no shot at competing is to price enforce these auctions just to have the option of either dropping the player on the last day of the season so that they could be available as a top pick in the MiLB Draft...

Appreciate the reply RE: MiLB/MLB Draft; not sure I see how a change would "move us quite a bit further from Standard Otto leagues" when the 5milb system does that already(?) If the issue is holding the MiLB Draft mid-year I'd be all for it; we're already gathered here playing- as opposed to in the mid-offseason when nothing is happening/coming out about the players we're drafting- & we'd have about 2/3's of the year to call-up/evaluate players already on our MiLB rosters..

Please promote Jacob Wilson from 5MiLB roster to my main roster (Love, Indubitably). Thanks!

The 5milb rules are actually set up so that all teams have to have a chance to roster a prospect on their Otto roster before he’s eligible To be drafted in the 5milb draft. I do agree that it isn’t ideal for draftees to be eligible to be auctioned midseason, but restricting them would move us quite a bit further from standard Otto leagues and would put a wrench in the 5milb schedule, we’d have to have the 5milb draft after the mlb draft

Sorry I didn’t respond sooner, taken a break from Otto for the last few days. My interpretation of the milb rules is that it is designed to ‘deepen’ the prospect pool that can be rostered, not necessarily to hold the top prospects. It allows us to more feasibly uncover/stash prospects that are too far away or too much of a long shot to be worth putting on Otto rosters.

Allowing these players to be auctioned before the MiLB Draft can throw a wrench into the mid-season market, when teams are more clearly established in the standings and are randomly re-auctioning previously cut players to clear salaries, and seems to go against the spirit of the MiLB Draft as a way to distribute top young talent to teams that finish toward the bottom. Any thoughts?

With the recent MLB Draft and Paul Skenes, who is owned for $8 in our league one year after being drafted, making headlines tonight by starting the ASG, I'm wondering if anyone else would like to see MLB Draft picks be restricted from being Auctioned until after they've been exposed to the MiLB Draft (except for rare occasions where players are called-up to the MLB after being drafted)... ?
