[USML Announce] Mea MaximaNdrus Culpa

[Frank Luby]

Hi everyone,
Agreeing with Doug.
This solution isn't perfect, but might be a good starting point and preserve FA money.
1) Berliners lose Andrus2) Every owner who picked an SS-eligible player later in the draft (I saw at least 3) makes this decision: keep the player they drafted (at the  price they paid) or put that player into a pool and get back the money they paid or him plus whatever they had on the table at the end of the day. If they do the latter, they can bid on Andrus or any other SS put into the pool3) once the pool is complete, the SS-eligibles get nominated and auctioned one by one (using the order of nomination from drafty)4) bidding continues until the SS-eligibles are all allocated to new teams5) To replace Andrus, Jeff promotes a player from his reserve roster and then replaces that reserve player from the current remaining pool of players as of draft day
Thoughts?

Well, to be honest this is a pretty big one and I'm interested to hear what people think is an equitable solution. Obviously there was money left on the table by some of us and position eligibility kept me personally at bay with two guys who only qualified at SS going into the draft. 
I'm not sure I can see how Andrus stays on the Berliners but I'm not sure how he would be purchased-- through the FA bidding seems to be the only solution I can think of but not a good one because someone will have to give up good money at the beginning of the year.  
Also, can we figure out some way to change the spam situation with the emails? It keeps happening no matter what we do.

Give Bogaerts to me?  Problem solved!

I am embarrassed to acknowledge that I made a mistake at Sunday's draft by drafting 3 shortstops.  My software defaulted Bogaerts to 2B and I didn't confirm his eligibility.  And he qualifies only at SS.  As a consequence, I drafted Elvis Andrus at a time when I had no place to put him on my roster.
In order to make my active roster compliant, I have asked Mark B. to move Bogaerts (the player improperly in my 2nd base slot) to my reserve roster and move Infante (the only 2B eligible player on my roster) to my active roster.
I'm very sorry for screwing this up and I defer to the league as to how to deal with this.
