League Message Board

  • Thank you, Commish, for your great leadership, both in and out of the weeds. Makes the league enjoyable, year round. Now, with Juan Soto comfortably set for life, the hot stove league can really heat up.

    Phil Roof All Stars on December 9, 2024 12:26 PM

  • Aside from the playoffs question, most of these issues are pretty deep in the weeds. I appreciate your votes and your interest. The Effectively Wild Fans governing charter is a living document, and I am grateful for you all helping it keep up with the times.

    Now, on to trade season!

  • The final issue was whether stolen bases and caught stealings should qualify an MiLB-rostered player for their debut. This proposal was approved 8-4, and I have edited the charter to include those alternative debut conditions.

    Ben's Banter on December 7, 2024 2:36 PM

  • The fourth issue was whether owners should be allowed to cut MiLB players mid-season. We have not allowed it in the past, though the charter does not have an explicit statement on it. The absence of a mechanism for cuts was interpreted to mean that cuts weren't allowed. The result was 6-6, which means that the traditional interpretation of the charter will now be explicitly included, and mid-season cuts will not be allowed.

  • The third vote was on whether MiLB-eligible players who are cut during the MiLB draft window should be draftable. 10 owners said they should not be. This rule is a clarification of an existing rule, so I've included a note address this specific scenario in the charter.

    Ben's Banter on December 7, 2024 2:31 PM

  • The second issue was whether international signees expected to debut in MLB should be eligible for the MiLB draft. The existing rule said that they were not eligible, so this would've required 8 votes in favor of allowing eligibility. It was approved by 4/12 owners, so the rule remains unchanged. Roki Sasaki and his ilk remain ineligible for MiLB drafting.

    Ben's Banter on December 7, 2024 2:29 PM

  • Hey everyone, thanks for your votes in our "winter meetings." As a reminder, any rule change needs 8/12 owners to approve a change.

    The biggest proposal was including playoffs. The result was 6-6, a tie. Since it didn't reach 8 votes in favor, we won't have playoffs this coming season. We can revisit this in a year if people are still interested.

    Ben's Banter on December 7, 2024 2:27 PM

  • If you have not yet done so, please take a few minutes to respond to our proposed rule changes for next year:

  • Hey, Alex, welcome! This is a fascinating platform for baseball and this league has some very good guys managing. Glad to have you aboard!

  • I just took over MVP Machines
