Subject: RIHC Injury Slot (IS) Designations


  Posted by: Guru - [330592710] Tue, Oct 23, 2007, 16:33

This is the third year we will be using the Injury Slot for the RIHC league, and I believe that some - maybe all - of the QLs are using that rule as well.

Here is the current wording of the RIHC rules:
Three bench slots are available to hold any player. Two additional bench slots will be enabled, but are restricted as “injury slots”, hereafter abbreviated as “IS”.

An NBA player shall be eligible to fill an IS if he is listed in any “informed” source as being injured more seriously than “day-to-day”. Examples of acceptable information sources include (but are not limited to):
RotoWire
RotoWorld
RotoTimes
ESPN
NBA.com
Newspaper stories (citing facts, not speculation).

Once a player appears in an NBA game, he is no longer eligible to fill an IS, even if a published source fails to remove his listing. When a player is no longer IS eligible, the team shall have a limited amount of time to remove that player from the IS, as defined below.

If a manager wishes to move a player into an IS but cannot find a confirming source, he may request that the Commissioner approve the designation. The Commissioner shall use his best judgment in making such a determination.

If any manager believes that another team has improperly moved a player into an IS, he may file a protest with the Commissioner. If any manager disagrees with a Commissioner ruling, he may request a league vote. Six votes shall be required to overturn any Commissioner ruling related to an IS.

Each Wednesday, the Commissioner shall review all rosters to assure that any filled injury slots are appropriate. In the event that an IS is improperly filled, the Commissioner will notify the manager of the violation via the email link at the Yahoo site. The notified manager will have 48 hours to correct the roster or to provide a satisfactory explanation. If a breach remains uncorrected 48 hours after notice, the Commissioner shall have the authority to drop a bench player in order to bring the roster into conformance. The player dropped will be based upon the Commissioner’s judgment as to the best interests of the impacted team.

The Commissioner shall have the latitude to extend the time for curing a breach if he knows that the manager is unreachable and/or unavailable to make the adjustment.

No player which is in an IS slot may be placed in a starting slot on any day unless the bench has been cleared of that injury slot, or unless another player is eligible to replace that player in the vacated IS. In the event of a violation, the Commissioner may elect to void any stats generated by improperly activated player.

As before, no player may be picked up as a free agent and immediately placed in an IS. Free agent additions are only IS eligible 10 days after pickup, unless the player has appeared in an NBA game after the pickup and the IS eligibility occurred thereafter.

In the past, we have successfully used the "honor system" in the RIHC, putting the onus on each manager to exercise his (or her) own judgment. The Commish was occasionally called upon to opine. For the most part, I think self policing worked pretty well.

It's been suggested that some sort of central clearinghouse for IS-eligible players would be useful. I do not want to be in the position of having to determine this - but I am proposing a means by which this might work. Here's the proposal:
  1. Whenever a manager in any RIHC-related league decides to declare a player injured and eligible for an IS slot, they must first check the IS thread to see whether that player has already been declared as IS-eligible.
  2. If that player has not yet been listed, then that manager must post a message declaring the player's status, and providing justification, with a link to a confirming source, if possible.
  3. At that time, any member of any league may post a challenge to that declaration if they wish. If more than one challenge is submitted, then the RIHC Commissioners will post a decision.
  4. If an IS declaration has been made for a player and has not been challenged, then any other manager with that player may accord that player IS status as well, without needing to post. In other words, only one (the first) manager needs to post that declaration.
  5. When a player returns to action and is no longer eligible, anyone (the original manager, a Commish, or any other manager) should post a note to that effect.
In effect, the IS thread becomes a jointly administered central clearinghouse for injury status.

Commissioners will still need to perform a weekly review of their respective leagues to monitor compliance.

Does this sound like a workable plan?
Are all three of the QLs using the Injury Slot rule this season?

According to the Chicago Tribune, on Friday, "Ben Wallace limped slightly on his sprained left ankle and said he would be fine by Wednesday's season opener at New Jersey, if not sooner."

Wallace owners should feel safe playing him in Week 1, but it never hurts to confirm a player's status before opening day. We'll keep you posted.

Pacers' center Troy Murphy, who will likely miss the rest of preseason with an Achilles' injury, is now a long shot to be ready for opening night.

He's still expected to have nice value this season and should be a solid value pick in the middle rounds, but it looks like it may take him a week or two to get going due to this injury.

It seems as though this thread has suddenly become the general injury thread.

Unfortunately, that sort of defeats the purpose.

Some of the qualifications cited above don't rise to the level needed for justifying an IS designation.

For example:
"...is now a long shot to be ready for opening night."

"...and said he would be fine by Wednesday's season opener"

"... it could take him several weeks to recover."


Some of those players might qualify, but not based solely on those assessments.

I'd prefer to have a general injury thread that's separate from this one, in which anyone can cite any injury news, from the severe to the day-to-day.

This thread should only be for declaring those players who are documented as being sufficiently injured beyond "day-to-day", and to cite third party reports which support that status.

Please clarify re: #8... if it said he "will" be out a week or two he would be IS eligible, but because it says he "may" be out a week or two he is not? Not trying to be argumentative, just trying to understand what qualifies... particularly since these things tend to be subjective. Also, I wasn't focusing on the "opening night" part (but included the whole post for referece), I was looking more at the "take him a week or two to get going" part. Admittedly it's not a definitive statement, but to my mind that's the "more than day-to-day"... but it's subjective and that, I think, is why we have the IS thread, no?

So, to stick with the guidelines outlined in the OP I followed steps 1 and 2... checked the thread, then posted a message with link. Step 3 has two parts... potentially a challenge post, and if one is made then a decision post.

Thus I'm unclear if post #9 is a challenge, a decison, or both of those wrapped into one... or if perhaps I'm simply misunderstanding the purpose/structure of this thread.

Unfortunately I'm working 70-hour weeks these days (well, fortunate for me in that I love what I'm doing, but unfortunate as far as my level of intensity with fantasy basketball comapred to years past)... so admittedly I'm skimming some posts and emails, so I genuinely apologize if I'm missing the finer points. I do think I'm paying adequate attention to manage a team and at least attempt to follow the rules. Again, apologies if I've misunderstood them... but please do clarify.

I would typically expect that a confirming source would be a report from the team or the player that he will be out for at least a few days.

A speculative guess by RotoWorld or RotoWire doesn't qualify.

So far, I think the following are clearly eligible for an IS:

Brand
Wade
Atkins
Bibby

Odom is a close call. Phil Jackson says, "It could be five games, it could be one or two games. We don't know."

I didn't see anything definitive on Noah, B. Wallace, or Murphy - but they might qualify. But not based on anything posted here.

The key is that I don't want to have to dig for confirming info. The manager who wants to delcare a player injured has the responsibility to find the confirmation, and to post that info here.

Guru, FWIW, I think all these posts are from RIHC or RIHC QL managers about players they thought should/could qualify for IS eligibility. Obviously the IS threshold is higher than some were anticipating.

On Odom, I was thinking that was the standard in years past for IS eligibility for players who have been out during the preseason was that in addition to being beyond day to day - they had to be expected to be out to start the season. If there was a chance they would play on opening night - when the games count - then they were considered day to day for IS purposes. This is why I put Odom in an IS slot.

ESPN is saying that Odom is out for opening night.

The LA times says Lamar Odom... will miss the first few games of the season because his left shoulder hasn't recovered from off-season surgery.

Rotowire says the Lakers will be missing Lamar Odom for the first few weeks of the season.

Hopefully he'll be back sooner rather than later, but obviously he has not made the progress after surgery for his torn labrum that was anticipated, since he was projected to be ready by the start of training camp. He can still run and do drills but he just can't take the physical contact yet. Hopefully I've provided enough documentation that Odom is out for now and therefore is IS eligible.

The Minnesota Timberwolves have lost starting guard Randy Foye for several weeks due to a lingering left knee injury.

An MRI test and CT scan performed on Foye's knee revealed a stress reaction in his kneecap, and the team announced that he will be out indefinitely. Sebastian Telfair and Marko Jaric will handle the point guard duties for the next month or so, making Telfair worth a serious look on the waiver wire in your fantasy league.

and rotowoire

Foye has a stress reaction in his left knee cap and will be out at least three weeks, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

      Thu, Nov 01, 2007, 10:28
Nope. The IS is essentially a replacement for the old disabled list (or whatever they called it in th NBA). Suspended players were never eligible for that, either.

The only exception is that if a player is eligible for an IS before he is suspended (or even released), he can be left in that slot until he returns to action.

Agreed, that was a fence sitter at best. But hindsight is also 20-20.

On close calls, IMHO it's always best to post in this thread and ask for Guru (and the league)to give their thumbs up before making a move. That's not required, as it says in the opening post:

"At that time, any member of any league may post a challenge to that declaration if they wish. If more than one challenge is submitted, then the RIHC Commissioners will post a decision." So it's really up to the league to disagree. Certainly if Swift played today, I disagree. ;)


FWIW, the old DL/IR/whatever was 5 games minimum IIRC. That's not the standard quoted, and 2 games isn't a good sign, but still.

RE: Carter...A Grade 1 sprain isn't going to take 3 weeks to return. Trust me on that. I konw what the paper says, but if that's truly all it is, he could be back in 3 to 7 days max.

A grade 1 sprain is simply the stretching of likely the CF and ATF ligaments. There is no tearing and the swelling is usually minimal--esp after the first day or two.

Now a Grade 2 sprain is partial tearing of one or moe of those ligaments (typiclaly one or both of those two mentioned above). If treated immediately and rehabbed well, it usually takes 10 days to 2 weeks before running on it again, but cutting takes longer--usually at least another week with proper rehab.

Sorry, I'm OT a little here, but my guess is VC will be back much quicker, so don't get caught with him out of your lineup.

I have a question on trades involving IS eligible players. When are they eligible for IS on their new team - immediately like drafted players or your own players, or after 10 days like a FA pickup? While I'm at it, for argument's sake, would it matter if the injury occurred during the trade approval time, heaven forbid? Seems we had a past practice on trading injured players and IS eligibility but I don't recall it and didn't find it in our current IS rules. Thanks.

Good question. I'm don't recall that the issue of trading IS players ever came up before.

Let me suggest this: Any player who is traded retains the same IS status flexibility that he had on his former team. So if a traded player was (or could have been) in an IS slot on the team he was traded from, then he can immediately be in an IS slot on the team he was traded to.

So essentially, traded players are like drafted players - unless the traded player was a recent injured F/A pickup by the trading team.

[63] - This is supposed to be largely self-administered. The process is for you to "declare" your intention to put TMac on IR, stating your justification. If someone objects, they can challenge. At that point, a "ruling" will be determined - but not until that need presents itself. (i.e., "rulings" are not issued in advance.)

Shaq missed his seventh straight game last night; I replaced him
with Reggie Evans in order to ensure continuity in FT%.

I question Jason's p/u of Krstic. With only Foye I believe who qualifying for IR, isn't he over the player limit?

I am surprised, that it is a question, beacuse Krstic hasn't played to much game this year, and has been not available to play for a long time. I have actually 15 active players and 2 who are injured.
As far as I undestand it's not against the rules, but I will drop B. Wells immadiately.

To pick someone up, you have to be putting someone else in the IS slot. There are 2 slots. Foye occupied 1. No one else was "moved" into the other one.

I now see what you were doing though by "adding" an injured player. But you can't do that---unless you have an opening first.

In the top post of the thread, Guru hit on that:

"As before, no player may be picked up as a free agent and immediately placed in an IS. Free agent additions are only IS eligible 10 days after pickup, unless the player has appeared in an NBA game after the pickup and the IS eligibility occurred thereafter."

"O'Neal will miss at least two weeks with a bruised left knee, team officials said Saturday before Indiana played Sacramento."

I moved him to IS, and picked up J. Foster.

Luol Deng is not likely to play again before Feb. 9 and will have an MRI on his injured left Achilles' tendon when the Bulls return to Chicago from their current six-game road trip.

"I think they're going to wait until we get back after the trip and take some more pictures and see what's what and move on from there," coach Jim Boylan said. Deng, who has missed six straight games, had been hoping to play at least a game or two on the road trip, but it now sounds unlikely that will happen.

Kaman with a possible/likely season-ending ankle injury. The Clippers trainer says he is out indefinitely. The link insertion script is not working on my mozilla browser tonight, so here's the link if you want to check it manually:
