If a manager has a starter whose team's game gets postponed, and the manager has no backup on his roster for that starter, that manager is granted EMERGENCY FREE AGENT PICKS. The manager may immediately select a free agent replacement for the postponed starter, without needing to drop player(s) to meet roster limits. That manager is REQUIRED to start the player who was selected with the emergency free agent pick that week. The manager would have until the following week's free agent period to reduce his roster to 16 players."<br /><br />Wording OK?pacifist vikinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639283781758286098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5373916586630296075.post-8960263677980597322010-07-05T10:44:34.330-05:002010-07-05T10:44:34.330-05:00Addition to Lineup Revision

The Hazelweird League attempts as much as is reasonable to accommodate members when this situation arises. Typically, if a player's status is in doubt, we allow members to send a mass email to the league, along lines such as 'If X plays I want to start X, but if he doesn't I want to start Y.' League commissioner(s) are able to retroactively adjust lineups.<br /><br />This is not a policy to be abused, and is fairly limited; we attempt to use this only for players' whose playing status is in doubt, and only when obligations prevent members from following and finding out about injuries that morning."<br /><br />There may be further clarifications regarding how this is affected by gametime (whether X needs to play at noon, or if any gametime is OK).pacifist vikinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639283781758286098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5373916586630296075.post-88699008902724893742010-07-05T10:23:51.025-05:002010-07-05T10:23:51.025-05:00An addition to Free Agency:

This means that you may select a free agent playing in a Thursday night game prior to the start of Thursday night's game; however, after the start of Thursday night's game, players on either of those teams are not eligible free agents until the following week."pacifist vikinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02639283781758286098noreply@blogger.com
