[USML Announce] NR Aye Aye Aye

One thing that bears emphasis is that NRI additions are limited to non-rookies.? I know you just said that, and I know the rule says that--just making sure everybody's clear on it.

Here is the text of our Rule 4.3.? The end of the next to the last sentence explains what needs to happen for non-rookie non-roster invitees can be added.? We've typically been flexible about when the list is circulated.? Anyone is free to compile a list of non-roster invitees who have lost major league rookie status.? Those players will be available.

Any player on an American League team's major league roster or disabled list may be acquired in the Auction. Minor league players and unsigned players are not eligible for acquisition in the Auction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Auction shall be held before the opening day of the baseball season, (i) all players on an American League team's 40-man roster on Draft Day (or on a different day prior to Draft Day as the League, by general agreement, shall determine) will be eligible to be acquired in the Auction, regardless of expected major league status and (ii) any player not on an American League team's 40-man roster on Draft Day (or relevant different day) will not be eligible for to be acquired in the Auction, regardless of expected major league status; provided, however, that any non-rookie who is under contract with any American League team will be added to the pool of players eligible to be acquired in the Auction if any USML team designates that player to be added to the pool by Roster Freeze Day.? Any player who is purchased in an Auction that takes place before the opening day of the baseball season will begin the season with Year One contract status, even if the player is not on a USML team's Active Roster on the opening day of the baseball season.

JHW:?Your missive suggests that some criteria exists for selecting which non-roster invitees?will be?available in the auction. Is that true or are they all fair game? I know mlb.com maintains a list for each team--just click on roster and scroll down. Can we work off that?

Thanks Rich. I agree that we should work off of these lists subject to any NRI additions which we agree upon ahead of time. I will have some names to propose later tonight.?
