[USML Announce] USML - Proposed rule codification

[jhwinick at aol.com]

Since Jim faced this situation before and we waived the player and made him wait until the first FAAB, I think we should consider this discussion closed.  There's absolutely no reason to deviate from past practice.  I took Mark B's proposal as a request to codify the league's prior practice.

Can we deal with the current issue on an ad hoc basis right now and then deal with rules proposals and text amendment during the deep off season?
 
Right now people may vote one way based on how it impacts their current situation and another if dealing with the issue in the abstract.
 
I don't have strong feelings either way about the substance of this one -- but I really do prefer to keep in line with our well established framework for amending our now, pretty stable rules.
 
Would we need a substantial super majority or will a simple majority carry the day?
 
Over and out.

Mark,
 
I like the rules proposal and vote yes.
 
As for my roster:
 
1.  You have the correct Josh Fields
2.  You're missing Ramon Castro at $2
 
Thanks.
 
Jeff

Since the problem of teams acquiring players from the NL has occurred in the past, and will likely occur in the future, I propose we codify our proposed solution in the rules for future reference.  Here is a proposed rule, to be inserted as section 5.6 of our rules:
 
5.6  If a team acquires a player in the Rotation Draft that does not meet the criteria set forth in Section 5.2, the player will, upon discovery, be deemed waived effective as of the conclusion of the Rotation Draft.  Such team shall have no right to select a replacement player, but instead may acquire a player for that slot in accordance with Article XIV.
