As the guy who has to update the rosters and roster spreadsheet all year, can we put a cap on number of roster moves?

Kidding.  Mostly lol. I didn't think Razor could do it. I know I can't commit to 162 days of streaming 4 or 5 guys in and out the way you did. It was impressive to watch.

I'm curious on 2 things however.

1. does yahoo have a way to make ohtani just 1 player yet? They are doing it in football with Travis Hunter. So surely there's a way in baseball to combine them. Maybe there's a setting?

2. Is there a way to have a minimum number of days before you can drop someone? I know it's strategy (and I've used it before), but there was a lot more adding guys and immediately dropping them a few hours later this year just to block others from getting them. Again, as the guy updating the rosters, that's a huge pain and seems like something we could get better control on. At least make people hold onto those guys for a day before dropping them.

We could look at a transaction limit like Razor suggested, this would be a way to regulate some of the adds and drops, at least the ones that are done to make a player unavailable for someone else. I can look at the settings in the spring to see if there are any other ways to look at this, though Yahoo has proven to be slow to adjust in the past.

Speaking of slow to adjust, at least for the 2025 season, Ohtani was a separate player in all of my leagues and I don't think they had a way to for him to count for hitting and pitching stats as one player. Though maybe if they've finally addressed it with Travis Hunter, then it'll be coming for Ohtani?

As for the trading deadline, in the past, we removed the deadline because we've looked at this as a year round league and that we felt like it didn't make sense to exclude trades from 8/1 through the end of the season when they're allowed the other 10 months. But, if you guys feel strongly about it, we could certainly put it back in. 

I'm open to looking at the pitching innings limit if you guys want to.

As for expansion, other than Nuixx's kid, would anyone else have someone who would be an active player? Also, just a heads up, if we expanded, we'd run it like MLB expansion and we'd all have players eligible to be drafted in this expansion draft from our own teams. Just want to make sure that everyone understands that.

Lots to unpack here.

Expansion - my son Josh is very interested. He plays in the Ultimate leagues (won football last year)

Trade deadline. I’m more a fan of not having one and just letting guys trade as often as possible. Yesterday was the latest one I ever remember obviously. Normally things go quiet in September anyway - not much of an impact to make a trade worth it.

IP limit - I’m good for whatever the league wants. Yes it’s high, but it’s something you want to work to help you if you can get enough SP on your staff.

Transaction limits - I’d rather not have them. But I get the pain it causes for Clint. If we could find a way to close the same day churning it might help, but I thought if you added a guy this morning and dropped him within a few hours that person was still available on the WW. But I could be completely wrong

We never came up with an exact process for expansion, I think the rules just say that we'd come up with a process when the time comes that we want to expand. I know that I'd want to base it as much on MLB rules as possible but let me see if I can come up with a process that would work.

Mookie, your the champ, of course you don't want to change anything ops wise lolol!

Expansion is long overdue. I like this system you are mentioning. I look forward to competing against both of them.
