| ADDING AND DROPPING A PLAYER FROM MLB TO TRIPLE A | |||||||||||||||
| When calling up or sending down a player from your MLB roster to your Triple A roster, it is a combination of Adding and dropping players from Free Agency to MLB and Adding and Dropping Players from Free Agency to Triple A. When adding a player or demoting a player from your MLB roster to your Triple A roster, you must either Add or Drop the Player on your Yahoo! MLB team, and then post saying �I want (enter player�s name) sent to my Triple A team� or �I want (enter player�s name) called up from to me MLB team.� There is, however, one other thing to consider when doing this.
You are only allowed 12 moves over the course of a season to make between Triple A and your MLB roster. This is to ensure that we aren�t just adding an additional 5 bench spots for managers to filter players in and out of. But what constitutes a �move�? One move is either adding a player up from your Triple A team to your MLB team or demoting a player from your MLB team to your Triple A team. This is because there doesn�t necessarily have to be an exchange for you to make a move from MLB to Triple A. For example, a straight exchange of calling one player up while simultaneously sending another player down counts as two moves. But, if you drop a player off of your MLB team straight into Free Agency and then call a player up from your Triple A team to replace him � this counts only as one move. Or inversely, if you send a player down to Triple A without recalling one up, perhaps adding a player from Free Agency instead, or adding no one � this also counts only as one move. APPENDIX (added 04.01.2007): When dropping a "Time-Served" player from the MLB to Free Agency, the money owed will be the percentage of total days that the player was on the Major League roster. When dropping a "Full-Pay" player the money owed will be either half of the players total salary or a player's Time-Served salary - whichever costs more. |
