[USML Announce] USML - Roster Update

[Blocker, Mark B.]

Mark, agreed on both points.  There is just one NL player that was drafted.  Once rosters are set, he can be waived at will without compensation, but he can only be replaced via FAAB bid.

	First, thanks, Mark.  One nice thing about the early draft is having more time to get things set up after the draft.
	
	The Nukes' roster appears correct to me.
	
	If players signed in the NL after Draft Day, we don't have an issue, do we?  They were eligible when taken and would be treated the same as during the season (i.e., eligible for FAAB comp if traded, otherwise not).
	
	If players were ineligible when taken, there's more of a question.  However, I would object to any fix that puts a team that took such a player in line ahead of the rest of the league for available free agents.  There should be no reward for taking ineligible players.
	
	Mark

	League:
	 
	  Rosters are now posted on the website.  As in the past, I ask that (a) each team review its own roster and report any errors by e-mail, and (b) some of the more careful eyes in the league review all of the rosters (not just their own) to look for errors.  I have no doubt that there were some inputting errors, and those can be easily corrected.  Please keep the correction e-mails coming this weekend and I will address them as received.  Thanks to everyone in advance for doing this, and for your patience with my schedule, which has not allowed me to enter the rosters as quickly as I would have liked.
	 
	  We also have two other issues to20deal with: (1) some players are not listed in the OnRoto player database (but the database is actually very robust), and (2) some players that were taken in the rotation rounds were either in the NL when drafted or have now signed in the NL.  I will deal with issue #1 by sending a request to add the players to OnRoto; I propose that we deal with issue #2 after we get all the rosters correct.
	 
	  It is important to get the league roster cleaned up because the system will only start keeping stats and processing transactions once the rosters are ?submitted,? a term the system uses for notifying it that all rosters are in good order.  It is not advisable to ?submit? the rosters before we do the clean-up, because making changes is far easier now.  We may not be able to submit the rosters until we add the remaining players to the database.
	 
	  Here is the list of players and teams affected by issues #1 and #2 above:
	 
	A.        Players not in the database
	 
	1.         Grant Green (SS/USC ? college)                    Berliners          
	2.         Aaron Hicks (OF ? Minn.)                              Berliners
	3.         Dustin Ackley (1B ? N. Carolina ? college)   Red-Hots
	4.         Kentrail Davis (OF ? Tenn. ? college)            Red-Hots
	5.          Dennis Raben (Sea ? Position?)                      Red-Hots
	6.         Juan Ramirez (Sea ? Position?)                       Red-Hots
	7.         Shooter Hunt (Min ? Position?)                      Red-Hots
	 
	B.        National Leaguers
	 
	1.         Ivan Rodriguez (rotation)                               Calamari
	2.     & nbsp;   Matt Murton (rotation)                                   Calamari
	 
	 
	  Please let me know if you have any other questions or issues relating to the rosters.
