Free Agency Tentative Schedule:
2/4-2/8 - SP
2/11-2/15 - RP
2/18-2/22 - OF
2/25-3/1 - CI
3/4-3/8 - MI
3/11-3/15 - C/DH
The plan is to have players posted for bidding Mon-Thur of the respective week with bids due by Fri 11:59pm Eastern. Only players meeting/exceeding 50/150 will be eligible to be posted - with the exception of the older international signees such as Kikuchi and Merrill Kelly. If a player is eligible at multiple positions, he will be bid whatever position week he is first posted. The first week of the in season FA bidding will be 3/25-3/29 and for that week players with an accrued AB/IP but under 50/150 can be posted for signing bonus bidding - subject to the stipend rules (see rules). Unowned prospects that have yet to accrue a AB/IP will have to wait until the draft or until they accrue a AB/IP.
For this weeks FA bidding - I will allow players to be posted for bidding beginning Monday Feb 4th. I ask that you do not post any SP's that you know are owned (we are working to get fantrax clean). Bids can be sent the TSS League Office account. Please do not send any bids until Wednesday Feb 6th, this will allow the TRP time to review the players posted for eligibility. Bids can be sent beginning 12:01AM 2/6 up until 11:59PM 2/8 - Eastern.
Priority lists. You can send priority lists that clearly order your preferences based on number of players you want to win and/or a total $ won stopping point. Please make sure it is clear and not convoluted. I will not accept bids where you only want player x if you don't win player Z. Explanation: if GM1 says I only want players from x group if I don't win Player Z and then GM2 says I only want players from Z group if I do not win x, then we have an issue as who to figure out the first player awarded. I.e. I wont accept priorities that dictates which players should be considered won first. Examples of acceptable priority lists:
Ex A) I would like one player from list A and 2 players from list B in order of priority
Ex B) I would like to win all of the below players in order of priority, but please stop awarding me players if the next player will put me over $40m AAS
