The Poli Baseball League Constitution
Rule Changes
In order for a new rule or rule change to pass, we need a majority the league (not voters) to vote yes. This is currently 8 of 14. The manager who proposes the rule should make a reasonable effort to publicize that there is a vote going on. If a majority do not vote for the proposal within a week, the proposal fails.

MLB Supplemental Draft
Draft Utility - Draftime
Player must be in the Yahoo database at the time he is picked in the
supplemental draft.
No time limit initially, unless deemed necessary
Straight Draft, Reverse order of standings
Prospect Draft & Rules
Straight Draft, Reverse order of standings
To be conducted BEFORE the Supplemental Draft
Under 300 AB's or 125 IP to be draft eligible
Any player at any level (as long as they are under limits) can be drafted as prospect. College, International, Little League etc.
You can retain up to 5 prospect eligible players from one season to next
There are 8 rounds in the prospect draft - minus a pick for each prospect you carry over.
ALL teams are entitled to EXACTLY 8 prospects by the end of the prospect draft. NO TEAM will be allowed to have any number other than eight prospects at the end of the prospect draft.
Prospects may be called up in-season and can be sent back and forth to prospect list until the end of the season in which they exceeded the stated prospect limits. As with our new rule, managers can keep prospects for the entire season in which they exceed their stated prospect level limits. So, if your prospect hits the limit in May, you may still hold his rights as a prospect until the beginning of the following season. Prospects may be called up or sent down anytime in-season or off-season prior to keeper declaration. If called up and made an MLB keeper, prospects will lose their prospect status.
Prospect rights may be traded.
Prospect picks may be traded as long as receiving team has enough spots to make the draft pick at time of draft.
You can trade for as many prospects as you like - however you'll need to have 5 or less at the time of the Prospect Draft

Got it.
Am going through a copy of last year's google spreadsheet and updating eligibility. Bean: You lost a few prospects, it seems!
Not willing to put the effort into fighting it right now, but will likely propose a rule change for prospect eligibility from 300 at-bats to 300 plate appearances. (Bili, you benefit from that this year, with Wander Franco).

For the new managers:
If any of your prospects have gone over the prospect limits (300ABs/125 IPs) then you can't keep them as one of your five prospect keepers. You can, however, keep them as one of your regular keepers.
A prospect over their limit and not kept becomes a FA and eligible for drafting by anyone.

<4> Not sure what you mean by "lost", but there are 8X14=112 prospects in the spreadsheet.
If you meant that I personally had a few go over the limits, that was by design. I often draft players that are already near the limit, and appear to be likely to be starters in the current year. Ideally, we all would like to see three players advance to the majors each year, since we can only keep five.

Yes--you had them go over the limits is what I meant. Though Mudville's team has you beat, it seems, with only 2 prospects still under the limits.

A simple google doc with prospects from last prospect draft, updated to new teams.
I've check the eligibility of each of these. If a player has an "N" in the eligibility column they cannot be kept as a prospect.
Let me know if there are any errors.
You can keep up to five eligible prospects.

Some interesting names available for a reasonable (though not theft-level) price. I will likely be keeping at least some of these, absent interest.
Probably the best thing for you to think about is 2-for-ones, you giving me 1 better player for 2 good players, if you are struggling to round out your 7. Top 10 prospects and even picks are also in play however. Just realize I don't really value picks as highly as others, given the diluted pool with so many keepers. Though I do consider a top-3 prospect pick as very valuable.

Prospects (Likely only interesting if you are a homer who follows these guys - high upside by raw, except Busch)

No worries, Nerve. Harper was clearly an oversight and I don’t think anyone has issues with the swap. No issues on the brief prospect delay either from me.
Do we have an injury allowance for replacing a keeper and if so, would I be able to swap out Luis Castillo? Just came out today he has shoulder soreness and has been shut down. Obviously would be a tough blow and also a gut punch that if the keeper deadline was 24 hours later I’d have seen the news and not kept him. Not trying to act in bad faith or anything but just want to ask if it’s a possibility to replace.

In the past we have always said if an injury happens before the draft a swap is allowed...

Nerve wants to correct a mistake in leaving Bryce Harper off his keeper list. Technically the keeper deadline has passed but other than thinking I might be able to snag Harper by trading up in the draft, I say this is no harm, no foul and let him make the correction.

The thing is, I didn't realize Harper wasn't there until Bean and PD told me. It wasn't like I changed my mind, I thought he was there and was shocked when I was told he wasn't. Welcome to my brain these days.
First time in 20 years of this league I have done anything like that...that I remember.
As far as WG it's has always been an unwritten rule and it's happened several times, if a keeper turns up injured before the draft starts we've always let them swap out for a healthy player...as long as the regular draft hasn't started. I think it's been a few years since it's come up though.
Probably worth adding to the list of rules.

Here is the schedule from the last thread:
March 21 Prospect Draft Begins (immediately after keepers declared)
March 25 Prospect draft End
March 25 Regular Draft begins (or sooner, if Prospect Draft is done earlier)
April 4 Regular Draft Ends
April 7 Start of Season
We need to be doing this prospect draft at about four times the speed that we have done so far. Draft Time does not populate itself with keepers and prospects. I am going to need time to get it set up once the prospect draft is over, which at this pace will be a week from now if not later, not two days like the schedule says.
Please be prepared when its your turn, and do your best to stay attentive to when you are up.

Yeah, bad timing for me. Looks like the 3 picks before me got knocked off a few minutes after I left work for a couple beers with my boss. Can't rush that sort of face-time.
I am paying attention though. But ain't gonna sour my relationship with my boss. She's a solid drinking buddy, and she signs my paycheck.

Let's get this prospect draft going today. If you can email the next managers when you pick that will help (use the Yahoo page to make it easier).
No clock yet, but at this pace I don't see how we can do without a clock very soon.

Re WG: I believe there is precedent in this league to allowing a swap of a keeper in the case of a serious injury, so long as the timing works (i.e., before the draft starts).
The swap is fine by me.

Ok thanks. Latest from Rotoworld is that he has been shut down with shoulder soreness, it's a lingering issue, and he might not be ready for the start of the regular season.
I'll swap to Jose Altuve.

So, yesterday I loaded your keepers into Yahoo. You can check that I did that right using "Draft Results"
Let me know if you find an error. I may still need to fix Harper and Castillo, dont remember.
Today I need to start loading keepers and prospects into Draft Time. First step is set the draft order. Its reverse order of finish.
Small issue, there were two ties. Three tied for 5th (me, Joe and mailedfoot through Meatwads) and two tied for 10th (artofmonk and Mudville 9). I handled this fairly as I have handled this in previous years.
I simply don't have time to do some process that ensures transparency for you. You'll just have to trust my honesty, dice were rolled on the table.
This is the result for the first round:
1.04 artofmonk
1.05 Mudville 9
1.08 Joe
1.09 mailedfoot
1.10 Bean
Later rounds will have an alternating pattern. that will approximate fairness.
That is all

I cannot open the draft until I enter ALL keepers and prospects that are drafted.
I cannot enter ALL of the prospects until the prospect draft is done.
Right now I have entered everything up to 4.09 in both Yahoo and Draft Time, so the delay between the two drafts should be minimal.
Once I start the draft in Draft Time, I'd like the first guy to not take his pick for a few hours so that people can check my work in setting the draft up . Depending on the mistake, fixing it could be several more hours. In most cases, you should still be able to load queues throughout most of that checking/fixing time.
There will be no clock for 24 hours, then I will institute a 4 hour clock. I hope it will stay at four hours for the entire draft, but that will depend on how well you all perform.
Prospects at draft time are problematic. If someone in another draft adds a player to the database, then its suddenly an available player in all drafts.
So, if you want to draft a player who would have been prospect eligible, please check to make sure he wasn't drafted in our prospect draft already, because the data base isn't static. I'll have the prospect spreadsheet for you, but it doesn't work if you don't use it. Being sloppy about how you are doing the draft, and not using the tools you are given, can result in delays in the draft for all 14 of us.
Any questions?

Monty we have talked about this.
For the rest of you, food for thought. Prospects are and have been the biggest headache for the commissioner in this league. They have also been the source of much of the rule debate we seem to have too.
Maybe its time to phase them out and make this whole process simpler, cause NOBODY including me wants to do the work that's required to make it possible.
To be clear, I wont be doing the draft again unless that is the direction we are heading (phasing out of prospects). Pitching in this year again only reminded me of how truly awful this process is. I'm all out of bandaids, paper clips and rubber bands and I am not going shopping for more.
When it comes to great ideas, we have lots of fertile studs to sire. However, we seem to have a dearth of men capable of, or willing to take on child rearing duties.
I am a 66 year old retired military man with no kids and little patience for laziness. I am not your mother. Let's get rid of these prospects.

"Let's get rid of these prospects."
If no one else in the league is willing to take on the duties of draftime, and if you won't add prospects, then it might be decided for us.
Let's see if anyone steps up. Won't be me. Not because I am lazy, just that I don't really have the aptitude to deal with that type of a process. Creative brain versus mathy/military/accountant brain.
I don't think it would be the end of the world to drop prospects going into next season, but I do like that part of the league.

They can be phased out over two years. Five prospect keepers and no draft in 2023. Compensation of some sort for future pick trades already consumated. (I think we have one).
No draft and two prospect keepers in 2024.
No prospect keepers in 2025. If you've got someone who hasn't been promoted to MLB yet and you want to keep them, use a regular keeper slot or drop them.
To further reduce the paperwork, make prospects untradeable effective now.

Is it worth someone doing a mock draft in draftime each year when it first opens. Just draft the top 300 prospects and the main college/HS guys?
Not sure how long it would take. But putting 1-3 teams in and just making the 1 team pick all their picks consecutively.
This way, all prospects are in the database and can have 1 combined draft.

Dale,
One season I gave Fred at Draft Time all of our prospect draft to add to the database. He did so, and it was useful to us, but it made a mess of things for all the other leagues who were ahead of us in their drafts.
I think Jason even mentioned that to me when the data base update arrived at his TPKL door step in mass. I never did that again.
I have often postulated that if you take a few mock drafts for college players, add that to MLB top 100 prospect lists and international signing lists you'd have 99% of prospects covered, and could theoretically have them added to the data base before any league ever started. But that's asking a lot from Fred who only runs Draft Time as a hobby. This year he barely got the site on line before people's scheduled drafts. I think it was the day before for the 8 Men Out league I run.
Up til last year, most of our prospects weren't even in Yahoo, let alone Draft Time. Yahoo has added pretty much all of the prospects that are signed by teams now. Generally its just the college/high school and international guys that aren't in their database now.
It all comes down to how much extra work is someone willing to do to make this stuff work Dale. I am not inspired any longer to keep busting ass frankly.
I think you can understand how league design drives how much work someone has to do to commish. Remember when you handed that TPKL clone off to me, MBS i think you called it. We bit off more than we could chew there too, though it was a little more about keeping enough managers as I recall. Joe and Phil were in that one too, right? Maybe artofmonk too, been awhile. Anyway, after trying to do keep that thing alive gave me a ton of respect for the job Jason does.
But he is a semi-autocrat, so at least he doesn't have to get permission to push the league in the direction he wants. Which is fine by me. He does an awesome job, and the way Joe chips in where Jasson lets him is great too.
Anyway, I know you just got here, we've been through alot here over the last ten years or so since I joined. It was born in the political forum here, so everyone in the league liked to argue. We've had two mid-season deaths since I started commissioning, so we've had our bumps in the road. The league has 20 years of history and is worthy of sustaining, but the workload on the commish has to shrink to what people are willing to do.

<134> If we finish the prospect draft today, I will start the draft time draft sometime tomorrow. If I haven't made any huge mistakes in loading it, and people use queues, we should be done with the first round sometime Monday and we'll have a four hour clock on Tuesday. That's my guesstimate.
If we finish the prospect draft in the next hour, it will all begin today.

Once I saw phil had posted his picks I thought we were done. I loaded all that were there then and then started the draft. When PD posts his pick, I'll simply remove it from the available player list at Draft Time if it is even in the list.
Everyone should now check that their keepers and picks are correct in Draft Time. Post something here if there is a mistake. Keep in mind that not all of your prospects are in the data base. There is a complete list of players in Draft Time you can check it against, but is ever changing.
Bobo, please do not make a pick until tomorrow morning. I will try to make sure its all good to go before i go to bed.
Meanwhile I promised my wife I would watch some TV with her. Have a good evening guys.

Bean, can't say it enough but thanks again for all your hard work and efforts here.
Not sure if I am missing something but I note C1 kept 3 prospects (Dominguez, Downs, Stott) and then drafted just 3 (Alvarez, Detmers, Berry). Is there a reason C1 stopped making picks in round 4 and didn't end up with 8 prospects after the draft?
Also I note Dale kept 4 (Kirby, Luciano, Green, Antone) and then made 5 picks (Jones, Ashby, Lewis, Contreras, and House) to give him 9 prospects.
I have everyone else with 8 prospects now.

WG,
As I was making the prospect draft spreadsheet, I noticed the same issues. Wont be the first time something went wrong with the prospect draft. It's too bad that nobody noticed it earlier.
Dale's is easy to fix, just drop the guy. It seems he just invented an extra pick for himself that he was never assigned. Time for a trip to the optometrist maybe? I'd keep an eye on that guy PD, those Aussies can be devious, and bear close supervision.
As to C1-NRB, he was capable of knowing he had been cheated of two picks since the day PD posted the draft order. He's been silent about it, probably not realizing until, like WG, he counted his players. Is he even aware now?
He has to accept that the responsibility to check, and let someone know, was his. Granted we started in a hurry, but we all had time to take a look at our picks and pitch a bitch. I say, let's treat it like a missed pick. We dont have time to unravel two rounds of prospect picks so he can have them when he was supposed to have them.
Give C1-NRB two more prospect picks now, and call it even. And don't wait for him to get around to it, press on with Draft Time. But that's just my opinion. I just hope PD can weigh in before the morning. I sent an e-mail to all concerned.
If the players are in the Draft Time database, I can just remove them from our draft like I suggested for PD's final pick.

I would accept responsibility for missing two picks, but I blame the lockout.
I'll get a couple of guys this afternoon and post them to the Prospect Draft thread.
Carry on with the draft in Draftime; if I happen to decide on a guy in the database I'll let everyone know so he can be pulled off the board.
Glad someone is on top of things. It's all cool.

I'd be okay with that. The draft, as it stands with over 200 of the best players protected, as almost absurdly useless. Let's put some players back in the pool.

Just woke up. Glad we have a happily ever after with C1's picks...thanks for cooperating C1. Yeah, the lock out left us all scrambling back then. Couple it with the league's peaceful transfer of power, and something was bound to not go perfectly.
Yes, PD, by all means, do a reconciliation of our prospects to the Draft Time player list. Here's a link to the to google docs. I'll update it once we get C1s picks. Alphabetizing the list should make things easier.

<155> Cam, Lots of questions all at once. First, yes the Yahoo database has more prospects in their database now. It allows me to ID more prospects with the "K", but the flip side is if they weren't in the database, they would not need to be identified. No perfect solution there.
As to including the prospects in the regular draft, Jason (aka Nerherders) does exactly that, he does not have a separate draft for prospects in the TPKL that half of us play in. He allows drop/add of prospects during the season however. Its kinda apples and oranges, but yes there is both merit and issues with merging the two drafts using the tools we currently use.
The bottom line is prospects simply lead to complications. For example, you cannot queue a player at Draft Time unless he is in the data base. You can only add him when its your turn. Lots of other issues, that's just one.
You can look at many possible ways of setting up a league if you want to diverge from standard leagues with standard rule sets.
As an example, here at rotoguru we have all fallen in love with slow drafts. Along with other benefits, its allowed us to invite people from different time zones to play with us. Nerveclinic when he was in the desert, and Dale from Australia come to mind. But that capability comes with an administrative pricetag. We could just do an on line real time draft but that might make things impossible for folks not living in North America..
Anyway, in summary, slow drafts come with the baggage of needing a supplemental program (Draft Time) to help us with draft clocks and e-mail notifications. Draft Time is not in synch with Yahoo, and the database discrepancy problem is compounded 10 fold with the addition of prospects.
It's always been my thought that most of us will play by whatever rules are put in front of us. We just play for the camaraderie and competition, afterall. We do, however, all have our own rule preferences.

I saw Albert "Joey" Bell up close at the AAA ballfield near my house. He was on alcohol rehab. Saw Daryl Strawberry while on drug rehab too. Saw Jim Thome, he wasn't rehabbing anything, just hadn't been promoted yet. He was just busy winning the minor league batting title. He was the first ever Skysox to be inducted in the Hall of Fame, so they had a bobblehead give away in his honor, they ran out before I got mine.
Speaking of name changes, as a fellow ex-Clevelander, I think you'll like this one PD. My nephew sent me a gift. A T-shirt with the skull of Chief Wahoo wearing his iconic single feather headdress. Says RIP below the picture. I wear it with pride. Go Tribe! Go Guardians!

Just wanted to say that the draft is going really well so far, thanks for that.
Keep an eye on the projected finish that is in the upper right when you look at the main draft page for our league. I'll be using that to determine if we need to reduce our pick time. Right now it's a four hour limit. As long as the projected finish time is APR 5 or earlier, I wont reduce the limit, though I hope we finish by 4 APR.
Again, thanks for being attentive. Keep up the good work.

The draft is going well, and I have loaded your players, including prospects, to Yahoo through the 6.04.
When we finish the seventh round, and I have loaded all the players I can, I will be starting the Yahoo league. This is a point of no return of sorts, because I wont be able to add a "K" to your prospects after that.
If you haven't already done so, you need to make sure that I have properly entered your prospects. You can check them at the Yahoo league...select Draft>Draft Results, then sort by team. You'll find your prospects in the last eight rounds. Remember those college/high schoolers and international players are likely not available in Yahoo.
Silence is approval. The problem will be yours to deal with during the season, as the subtle reminder that the "K" provides wont be on your prospects. Mistakes will be made.

You'll note that I have begun the season at Yahoo. If I did things right, I have removed everyone's prospects from their rosters and all of your regular keepers and drafted players should be on your roster through 8.06. Make sure you look at Mar 31 before whining, but take a look and let me know if there is an issue.
From now until the end of the draft, you will not be able to Trade or Add/Drop. You can set lineups and I will continue to add players to your roster as you draft them. All of our prospects are now listed as FA with a "K" in the available player listing. You can promote them before the season starts. Most of you know the drill, pay attention. Don't take someone you don't have rights to please.
Keep doing the great job you are doing for the draft and we will have a little time for you to tweak your roster post draft.

Check your rosters, make sure to look at tomorrow. Let me know if you are missing anyone.
If you want to make a waiver claim now, send me an e-mail. Otherwise, you should be able to pick free agents up without using your waiver priority on 5 APR somewhere around Noon EDT. Don't ask me at exactly what time, I will just laugh at you and give you no answer. I probably wont even reply to the e-mail to tell you nothing.
If you are worried about not getting that special guy you want, use your waiver priority, that's what its there for. I'm not picking anyone up so there's no conflict of interest that you can accuse me of.

I think its a carry over from high use of IL10 in the majors. Teams are far more likely to put players on the IL now, COVID or not.
Yahoo standard leagues put all players on Waivers too, they use FAAB of $100.
We do so much non-standard stuff here at Rotoguru, people coming from Yahoo public leagues would not recognize the game we play here as fantasy baseball.

When we switched from W to QS, Tampa was the only team that was using starters for lower innings. Now a complete game is so rare, odds are you'll get pulled even if you have no hitter going.
I think we should go back to W next year. The QS is as rare as a SV nowadays.

So, there seems to be some interest in W vs QS (me, artofmonk and Biliruben). There also seems to be some interest in S+H vs SV (me, artofmonk and Taxman).
Only four managers weighing in so far, maybe worth putting to a vote?

I don't like holds. It's too arbitrary and doesn't often reflect actual contribution to winning the game.
I would very much like to move to Ws from QS. 6+ inning starts aren't really much of a thing in today's game. Baseball has moved on, and it's not really a measure of quality anymore. It's often a measure of questionable managing.

I'd rather have QS over W and I'd prefer S+H over S.

Agree with Joe. SP is already devalued enough in MLB--until they do away with the minimum five IP for SP's to get W's that is.

I was very much on the QS train because I really believed that was the direction things were going.
Since the pandemic season and after, I am not sure. I haven't mined enough data on either side of the argument.
I think I would pivot go in favor of Ws now, if it were up for a vote.
Is there any belief that if we transitioned to S+H over SV that we'd need to allow for slightly expanded rosters to add pitching depth?

I would vote for Wins over QS for the reasons stated above; namely, that SP don't seem to go as deep into games as they used to, and also because if a RP gets a Win it doesn't count in our system.
I would also vote to keep Saves over S+H, or would maybe vote for Holds counting for half as much as Saves if that were an option.

This is the first league I've played in with QS as a stand-alone category and would like to see how it plays out over a season before voting to change. So if this is a vote - QS.
Ref S vs S+H, don't have strong preference either way but think S+H makes sense in conjunction with QS. Again, if this is a vote - S+H.

Tylor Megill was pretty good tonight, but not quite good enough for that QS :0

It feels like I have a dozen scoreless 5 to 5.2s. Nobody should be near to leading the league in Ws, first in ERA, middle of the pack in IP, and last in anything that might be pretending to be a useful stat for "quality" of their starts. It clearly measures nothing of the sort.

I think I was originally Pro QS, but I'm not now. I prefer straight W.
SV+H I like. I would also get behind a two Holds = one Save if the we find a host that can handle it.

Pulled Gilbert off of Tax's roster. Unfortunately I can't add him to your roster before tomorrow, though I tried a few different ways. bili: He's a FA now.

Another prospect add (Kirby) that needs amending, I believe. Two things: If it's too good to be true (Kirby, McClanahan, Gilbert being FA), it probably is. And I'd highly recommend people starring/watchlisting prospects to alert you who not to add.

I dropped Kirby but it wont take effect until tomorrow, so I took him out of Taxman's starting lineup too. It's would be too late for Dale to grab Kirby and start him today in any case. I also gave WG co-commish privileges since he is often the guy who first notices this stuff. WG just fix it and let everyone know next time.

The Shane McClanahan drop doesn't appear to be "too good to be true" as he's passed the prospect ceiling already. As far as I can tell from the rules, he is eligible to be picked up by anyone through the waiver process.

From the rules above: Prospects may be called up in-season and can be sent back and forth to prospect list until the end of the season in which they exceeded the stated prospect limits.
I drafted him in the P draft this year, so he would have exceeded the limits in season... so I can call up and send down all year, no?

Ah, you're right--new(er) rule that updated the "immediately lost eligibility" rule which always caused mad dashes to the FA list.

The rule changed so that the commish did not have to police this stuff all season. With the way the rule is now, commish just checks for prospect eligibility once per year, off season.

I posted this in the Yahoo message but here again...
WG You are a beast sir.
If anyone wants to learn how to win a league, go to WG's team and look at all the positions that he used all the available starts (162)
That's called being a pro and putting in the work.
You schooled me.
Well deserved win.
Congrats.

Thanks Bean and Joe, and thanks for the nice words, Nerve. Heck of a battle this year as we separated from the pack. Think it was 124.5-124 going into the last day and I really thought it could go either way as I was maxed in innings and thought I couldn't gain in hitting. Felt lucky to hang on.
Looking forward to another good year next year!
