Subject: Question about Dynasty Leagues

  Posted by: Newbie - [3671216] Thu, Jul 12, 2012, 17:34
Monday I accepted a team in a Dynasty League. I had the choice of three teams. Each team came with a "farm" system of ten minor league players.

A day after I got my team it was found that the previous owner had well borrowed a minor league player from another team. So I lost the player and had him replaced by Chisenhall (DL) for the year.

The next day same thing but I lost an OF and this time no replacement whatsoever.

Found out that before i got the team I had Paulino (DL for the year) added to my roster under the same circumstances.

Okay I can adapt but the team was going down hill quickly with no catcher, 3rd, and an open OF slots.

The next day I was informed that the ten player minor league system was going to be cut to two players to help eliminate what the previous manager had done. So make my choices.

I didn't adapt that well and wrote the commissioner that he would need to find a different owner as I had lost 11 out of the 35 players on the team.

I feel the set up for minor leagues was poor at best. !5 teams with 10 players per team kept at a different site. To see if a player was available you needed to sort through a 150 names before you could add him.

For Dynasty leagues how are yours handled?

My keeper league (dirty dozen) keeps things simple. If you want a player in the minors, he has to take up one of your roster slots (if he isn't in the database yet, you just use another player as a placeholder). PLus you only get 7 keepers each season, so most minor leaguers are released back to the pool each season.
