[USML Announce] USML 2006 - important league update

[JHWinick at aol.com]

The change that Mark has proposed is one that is consistent with "official"  
rotisserie rules.  The rationale is that with one fewer team, there are 23  
fewer players to be drafted.  By adding one pitcher and one hitter to each  
team, you "suck up" 20 of those 23 on active rosters.  The intention is  merely to 
try to keep a consistent amount of depth in the league and lessen the  amount 
of "starter-worthy" talent on the reserve rosters.  Mark didn't  mention that 
along with adding 2 player slots, the auction budget would be  increased by 
$20.
 
I don't think we'd have to waste too much time worrying about all of the  
rules that might arguable be affected by this change, like innings pitched and  
minimum at bats, but I could be persuaded.  I think all that we'd need to  
change are the salary cap and salary floor.
