Fellas,
Here are the Prospect Rules as we agreed to last Spring which are reflected in the Master Files located on Page 1 of this Thread:
1. The maximum number of Prospects allowed for each team is 10.
2. Prospects are not counted as part of the 40 Man Roster while they maintain their Prospect Status.
3. Prospects can be traded.
4. Prospects can be promoted to the Major League Roster at any time, PROVIDED there is a Roster Space available. Once promoted, a Prospect looses his Prospect Status and cannot regain Prospect Status.
5. You may add a Prospect to your Major League Roster after you drop players, but BEFORE the the Season's Annual Free Agent Draft and then draft one less Free Agent.
6. Prospects who receive a Card when the New Card Set is issued by SOM, MUST BE ADDED to the team's 30 Man Roster Prior to the Annual Free Agent Draft. Prospects with cards in the New Card Set will become FREE AGENTS IF NOT ADDED to Major Roster of the Team owning the Rights to that Prospect by the 30 Player Roster Free Agent Draft.
7. Prospects with Cards in the "UNLEASHED SET" WILL NOT FALL UNDER RULE 6. They will remain Prospects until promoted or involved in Rule 6.
I hope this clarifies the Prospect Status.
Tim
