[quote:267bd4a43b][b:267bd4a43b]Roster expansion[/b:267bd4a43b]: To replicate roster expansions on September 1, rosters may be increased to the maximum allowed by the game engine. This will occur after the completion of 138 games. For teams making the playoffs, they must revert to a 25 man roster prior to the playoffs. While I know players cannot be picked up after game 142, I believe players can be dropped at any time. [b:267bd4a43b][i:267bd4a43b]If this is incorrect, this feature of the league will be reconsidered[/i:267bd4a43b][/b:267bd4a43b][/quote:267bd4a43b]

There are [b:267bd4a43b]NO[/b:267bd4a43b] transactions whatsoever after Game 142. At best the playoff teams will have to submit a roster to the league commish, but the chances are great that HAL will throw everything off by playing a non-roster player in a key situation.

Based on input from RunninRebel (appreciate you sharing the knowledge), it appears the idea of roster expansion and then roster contraction before the playoffs is not possible from the game engine. Back to the drawing board on this idea.......

I wouldn,t worry too much about shrinking back down to 25 players....more likely than not they will be low impact players anyway...whats anybody think of this?

[JOSEPHBONK]

I"m open to either method-I liked the idea of roster expansion as it could lead to some interesting strategy regarding saving some money for a late season roster move. As you point out though, the reality may well be that any late season pick ups would be of role players at a low salary.I'm interested in what others think-as we get closer to filling up the league, we can decide how to proceed. I would like to come to a resolution of all rules prior to the start of the season.
