      - Personal feelings should not factor into trade voting.  Only trades where colusion is suspected or one team
        is getting taken advantage of should be voted against.
      - Trade deadline will be set for the beginning of the playoffs.
      - At the conclusion of the playoffs trading will reopen for the remaining 3 weeks of the regular season.  At that
       poing trading will close until teams have submitted their keeper lists the next season.
  
  Roster Moves:
      - There will be a cap of 75 roster moves during the season.  There is no limit on trades. 
      - Teams must fill a complete lineup; starting positions, 26 eligible active roster players, 20 eligible minors
        roster players.
  
  Waiver Draft Eligibility:
      - Any player that has played in at least 1 MLB game is eligible to be selected.
        
  Minors Draft Eligible: 
      - Any Player meeting the minors eligibility requirements of Games Pitched or ABs and is signed by a MLB team
        is eligible.
  
  Minors Team Makeup:
      - 20 players of any position
        *Pitchers— Any player having appeared in 60 games or less games.  No age limit.
        *Batters—Any player having had 800 or less at-bats. No age limit.
      - Players that have surpassed the eligibility limits cannot be sent back to the Minors.
      - You may only move a player from your Minors roster to your MLB roster if they have played a game in the
         MLB.
      - Players must have been signed or drafted by a MLB team.
      - Teams must keep at least 10 players on their Minors roster at all times.
  
  Ineligible Minors:
      - Teams will have 48 hours to fix their roster.  After the 48 hour period is up teams will start losing that days 
         matchup until their roster is fixed.
  
  Keepers:
      - Each teams gets 12 keepers.
      - Teams can also keep players as exempt.  These player must meet the Minors eligibility rules and have played
         in at least 1 MLB game.
      - Teams must also keep at least 1/2 their Minors roster.

        will be given the 16th overall pick.
      - The MLB Draft will snake.  The Minors Draft will not.
  
  International Free Agents & Current Year Drafted Players:
      - Any player signed by a MLB team after the league drafts will not be eligibile to be on any team until the next 
         years draft.
      - Any player selected and signed during the current years actual MLB Draft will not be eligible to be on any team 
        until the next years draft.
  
  Draft Pick Trading:
        - Waiver Draft picks can be traded at any time but only to one year in the future.
        - Minors Draft picks: 
             1) Can only be traded for that year before the season starts
             2) After the halfway point of the season Minors Draft picks can be traded for the following season. This is to                prevent teams from trading away their entire draft for the following season before it even begins.
        - Minors picks can be traded via the comments section of the trade offer.  Teams need to make a post with the             full trade and have both teams confirm the deal is correct.
        - There will be no auctioning off draft picks once a team is on the clock.  This is to avoid draft slow downs.
        - No trading picks that cannot be used. For example if you only have 2 open spots you can't trade your 10th 
            round pick because you won't be using it. The same goes for trading for a pick that cannot be used.
        - Be mindful of where the draft is when proposing/accepting offers. Trades aren't going to be immediately pushed
           through just because the pick that you traded has now come up. Trades can be pushed through early but not 
           immediately after they are accepted.
        - Once a team has filled all spots on their roster the draft is over for that team. Once that happens the rest of
           that team's draft picks are forfeited. There is no trading back into the draft. If a team that has finished 
           drafting opens up spots on their roster with a trade those spots will need to be fill off waivers after the draft is           over.

  Players cannot be dropped during the draft.
  
  Post Draft:
       - Rosters must be compliant after the draft ends
             1) All players on the Active roster must have played in at least 1 MLB game
              or given an exception by the LM (ie International Free Agents with no previous MLB experience that are over              the Minors age limit)
             2) All players on the Minors roster must meet the Minors eligibility requirements
       - Any team that is not compliant must become compliant via the waiver wire. Teams cannot trade until their                team is compliant.

  League Etiquette:
      - Respond to trades and e-mails in a timely manner.
      - Provide feedback on trade offers over flat out rejections.  Feedback is expected.  It doesn't have to be much just
         something helpful on your thoughts on the trade.
      - Try to reel back on the harsh language when responding back.  Some owners views on the value of certain 
         types of players differ (ie prospects, pitchers, hitters, even draft picks).
      - Try to keep discussions over chat and threads at least semi-civil.  
      - Don't air dirty laundry in front of the entire league.  It's a bit on the childish side.  If you have an issue with 
        something take it up with that owner or the LM.
      - Let the LM know if you're going to be away for any time over a week.
