Wow.

The Dwarves...are short. I have an entire roster full of one-hit wonders that I snuck into contention. There are like 10 good players and then just endless scrubs.

In that spirit, I am going to

Drop 18.
Keep 22, then upjump 2 prospects (Berrios and Stephenson) to leave me with 24.

Short, yes...

But not that short

6) Prior to the draft for all subsequent seasons, all owners must drop enough players to bring their rosters to a maximum of 30 players, allowing for 10 draft picks. Owners can drop below 30 players, but must not have fewer than 25 prior to the draft.

Man, don't even get me started about how lousy this team is -- my total salary for hitters is $30M. I got lucky with Hendricks and Porcello, and the bullpen is okay. But my hitters are all scrubs, except for Walker, Kiermaier and Pearce.

Dropping 16.
