New Franchise League: "Break Up The Yankees" LEAGUE FULL

No, tr, that does not contradict. I own the Pedro card, since his most IP are with Boston, but I was asking about signing his lesser card as a free agent so I could use his Montreal card. I'm fine with that not being allowed.

I will select Ralph Kiner for my Indians franchise, please.

At this rate, I could wake up dead, before we complete the player selections!

Pirate - yeah, not moving as quickly as I had hoped. Thinking that the 2nd round should be much faster because my hope would be that everyone has someone in mind plus an alternate. That said, I can't do much more to get the process moving. I have been periodically PM'ing people, so hopefully that prompts an email reminder as well.

I'll make my pick quickly and I'm reaching out to royal_boston to do the same.

In the meantime - Brent65, you're on the clock!

Commish, your logic for keeping players, from our franchise, that are not being used on our active rosters is solid. We don't want teams to not have a fall back plan, if their team is not working. Having 5 non franchise players means that you will have 19 to 23 players from your franchises list to use and if players are taken from the left overs, by other teams, there might not be many alternatives.

p.s. Can franchise players be traded to other teams.......might have been covered but I can't find the answer.

Just my 2 cents but I don't think we should be able to trade franchise players but I am open to other viewpoints
