OT: pampasaya..

 

 

 

edit: just appreciated what the Fish and the Rays were trying to do all along.

at FLA, traded Beckett and Lowell for Hanley, got Anibal and CV from the farm, added Cantu, traded Miggy for Maybin & Andrew Miller (& cash considerations, i think)

and Friedman's genius mind got TB to the WS last year..

man... what's this trend of sorts... position players going out and pitching (in blowout losses, that is)...

 

swishahouse... cody ross... who's next, ty wigginton?

[bubuy]

do you agree if we should have "cap" limits for our minor leaguers stay in the farm system?

 

YES -

NO -

 

===== =====

 

if YES, what should be the cap limits?

 

a. 325 ABs (hitters) and 160 IPs (pitchers)

b. 375 ABs (H) and 190 IPs (P)

c. 425 ABs (H) and 220 IPs (P)

d. others (suggest your own )

not to sound too unrealistic but I did plan to keep most of my farm hands in my farm as long as I could have...

 

so I choose C

d. others (suggest your own )

 

 

just to clarify,

 

"yes" - since minor league ballplayers also have "minor league eligibility" which expires after a certain period; we can't/shouldn't encourage hoarding; and the FA pool needs to be restocked from time to time.

 

"A" seems enough since it comes around to 81 games or about half a season (bat)/26 games (for SPs)...

if a prospect sticks around that long, it's either he's got good reason to stay or the team just can't suit up enough guys.

 

picked B since it's somewhat more reasonable (93/31).

[TripleDouble]

YES... and i vote option B

Edited April 27, 2009 by TripleDouble

[consiglieri]

yes - the FA pool gets very thin...

 

id go with B too...

[joshiasi]

ill go with yes and B..

[denimhead]

i was tempted to go with option C ... but... seeing as the SP fa list being so thin ... longer farm terms i think wont help the problem

[consiglieri]

uhm...question lang master b,

 

i think it was discussed (not too sure) of a way to demote called-up players ala NBA (example...snitch's dropping of andrus allowed jongks to pick him up)

 

errrr...ano na nga ba ang napagusapan tungkol dun

[bubuy]

the current rules apply, this proposed revision is not retroactive to the start of the season..

[consiglieri]

yeah...i agree...pero in the future...what were the suggested plans?
