1999: Riggo’s Bragging Rights League (AL vs. NL)

[RiggoDrill]

If the final spot is filled today and waivers run Sunday ...and season starts Monday night ...it will be an insane scramble to complete teams before beginning of season.

The rule about fixing rosters by Midnight PST would have to be moved up to, say NOON PST on Monday.

Life would be simpler if we put a hold on filling the league until Saturday, so we would have an entire week to complete rosters. On the other hand, I'm kinda impatient and everyone's been waiting so long to get this league off the ground... I'm inclined to just say, 'go for it!' run the draft and start playing. 8-)

[quote:92ecacdcaa="keyzick"]With durantjerry hopefully filling out the last spot today, waivers will run Sunday night. Which mean the season would start Monday, so a tighter window to get the rosters straightened out.[/quote:92ecacdcaa]

Depends on when durantjerry loads his team. If he enters right now for instance the draft will run in 10min so we would have extra time to trade prior to waivers. There will just be less time after waivers Sunday night to mess with rosters which is what I think you are trying to say.

That deadline works for me.

It is also important to note that that is just the trading deadline for inter-league player moves, (or, for that matter, dropping players to free agency, as the other way to solve the players of the wrong league on your roster).

BUT, of course, we can still do other player moves (trades, adds and drops) with players of the CORRECT league after that deadline.

I am also really excited to get this party started! Should be a lot of fun!

Thanks again Riggo for coming up with this!

[SteadyEddie33]

great... I didn't think the draft would run in time to open this monday. Typical bad assumption... $HITE!

I've dropped one SP, still have

SP-Reynoso 1.91
Isringhausen 1.08

RP- Timlin 3.61
Schoenweis 0.59
Service 0.50

Will be online all AM Monday, so one way or another, it'll get done. :roll:
