Can offer Addison Reed, CHW likely new closer..Manny Banuelos, others...

Guys,

I have a little problem. bigmahon has 5 draft picks in our current prospect draft, but only has 4 slots left on his 10 man prospect roster. Our rules do not allow a drop on the 40 man roster to allow for a promotion, which would then allow bigm to use the final pick. Under the rules his only recourse if he wanted to make use of the pick is to make a drop on his prospect roster.
Now in his defense, I usually catch these sorts of things and give you guys fair waring so that you can make drops/promotions prior to the spring draft to get your rosters in line. I did not catch it in this case.
Because I'm at fault a bit here to, I'd like to not see bigM lose the pick, but what I'm asking does bend the rules. I'd like you al to vote and share your concerns.

What I'd like to do is:

Allow bigM to drop his last draft pick, Reid Brignac and be allowed to make one prospect promotion to allow him use of all his prospect picks.

No

Yes, let him drop Brignac and take a prospect.

That's enough, I will drop Brignac from Big's roster, and he'll be allowed to promote one of his prospects to aloow for the estra pick.

Thanks for understanding and taking the time to vote. :D

Is BigM buying the next round ?... :wink:
