I'll let Mark B. or Rich weigh in on the steps to be taken to remedy the DuBois 
issue....if allowed a substitute, I will reserve Jeff Fiorentino instead...if it
 is deemed I just lose DuBois off my reserve roster, that's quite all right by 
me.

Buddha is correct.  Once a player loses MLB rookie status, he can't be
slotted on the reserve roster for retention purposes.  I once proposed a
rule to change this, once, but got shouted down!  Here's the language
from our constitution:  "In addition to the players that a team may
protect from its roster of Active and Reserve Roster players pursuant to
Section 17.1 <http://www.usml.net/rules.html#Section%2017.1>, a team may
also protect an additional three players on its Reserve Roster,
/provided/, that such players have major league rookie status and have
never been on the Active Roster of a League team _*(without regard to
anticipated opening-day major league status)*_."

Speaking of shouted down, between Brad's various rants and insults, it
appears as if my original proposal garnered 5 votes of support and 5
votes opposed.  Gammons should be required to get off the fence and
weigh in.
