[quote:2ba6b373bd="ado_jake"]G - just one clarification. In my case, having the Twins, I will only get 2 free agents. With the $80M salary cap, pickings will be slim for me unless I wanted to unload the Killer, Oliva, Bosman, etc. . After the autodraft, up to the start of the season, I can still scope out the waiver list and make changes - to my 2 free agents - correct? I understand that after the season starts I can still do this subject to the 80% player salary drop. All I'm looking for confirmation is that the waiver period after the autodraft is the same as normal, subject to me staying with my 2 free agent alotment. Thanks.[/quote:2ba6b373bd]

THIS IS CORRECT. Add, drop and trade free agents at will just as you never exceed your allowed maximum at any time during the season.

Good catch Risden - I meant Boswell. Probably a good indiction of how well I'll do.

Who have thought that the Mets and Baltimore would still be there. What no one wants the pressure of trying to get those 2 teams to the finals? :lol:

too much payroll...........can't add a whole lot. i was thinking of the twins, but the $$ was too high. the cubs by far imho were the best buy.

hopefully the mets and baltimore don't get taken, there is some good talent there for the FA market.

A point of consideration in my taking the Giants was the gamble that out of the next 5 managers 2 will take the O's & Mets leaving the Giants in a position to get the 4 free agents package. If I miss I should have gone with the A's.

To the 5 remaining managers - In a similar league the O's had the best record. Hint!!!!

Bob I can tell you one manager that won't take either.

by **cwostevec** » Mon Feb 13, 2006 9:07 pm

i already have a spot to grab 4 free agents. can't complain about that. i think i can find 21 usable guys on the reds roster.

do we have to keep a 25man roster for the entire season?
