That is a good question. If he is in free agency why is he a Carebear? Shouldn't he be on his roster or DL on his roster?

Thank you Silvertips.
Also one of the board committee wrote. You have until April 1st to add your player(s) on ESPN. If they did not. There lost. I look at the league rule and could not find anything about free agent. The committe should discuss about the Free agents rule?

If you look at the league rules on here. There is nothing say about picking up free agent when someone have them on there list team here but the do not have them on ESPN team. Just look at today. When I picking up Michael Pineda*, NYY SP from free agent on ESPN. On my behalf the league committee should make it more clear about free agent pick up(s).

Because ESPN doesnt start making the "DL15's and DL60's" untill RIGHT before the season starts. Which is why we had this conversation which was all agreed to......... this convo--- completegamedynasty2.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=other&action=display&thread=420and this poll--- completegamedynasty2.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=other&action=display&thread=426Obviously Pineda has been on the DL since last year so I don't see the the validity of this argument unless it just wasn't understood before. Any player who obviously wasn't gonna play at the start of the season (Pineda,Soria,Beachy,Hutchison,etc) at the end of the season and during the offseason ESPN makes them all "DTD" therefore not eligible to place on your DL but knowing full well they are going to start the season on the DL and thats ESPN's funky stupid little gimmick should you lose a player? No I don't think so. And Pineda shouldn't be lost for Carebears or anyone who was in such a situation.

So you are telling me that. You can have 30 keepers and 3 DL spot on here to keep for next year. The league rule is you can only keep up to 30 and not more. Like one of the league manger wrote on here before. Taking advantage of the DL system. You can see that quote on March 3. Example: you have 30 players that you can keep and 3 on DL on here for next year. On ESPN you can only keep up to 30 and not more, ever if you have them on DL. If the committee think that I am bitching to much about this. Then the committee should drop me from this league. I do have a good team on here and I am willing to drop from this league, if the committee want's me to leave.

Didn't hear anyone say that. You just brought it up. Not me. Not any other LM.
All I'm gonna ask is,you yourself know I'm a Yankee fan right Mike? So do you really think I would let Michael Pineda sit around as a FA on the wire if I didn't know that he was owned by someone else?
What everyone needs to do is keep their TEAM ROSTER on this site more up to date. Cause thats what's ruining things.

Tell you the truth about this I really dont care. Have another LM rule over it and read over it and make a decision. I just knew Pineda wasnt a free agent and someone owned him. i went to the search box here and typed in Pineda and hes on Kirbys team. ESPN's fuck up is that they DTD these guys during the offseason when it's a positive they are winding up on the DL to start the season. I mean how long did it take for DL15 to appear next to Tex bro? It's an ESPN fuck up that confuses everyone here. Like I said ask Timothy. I'm done speaking on it.

Yeah, i screwed up. Mostly due to my lack of activity in this league. You don't have to worry about me not being so active anymore though. I think I can win this league, even with 25% of my roster on the DL.

I actually just e-mailed ESPN about their bunk DL system:
Hello. I have a question for ya. When are players who are going to start the year on the DL like Brett Lawrie, Adam Eaton, Martin Perez, Hanley Ramirez and Chase Headley going to have a DL designation on the site. I just don't know why you would wait until the last minute. Thanks.
Dear Ryan,
Thank you for playing ESPN Fantasy Baseball.
Sorry for the confusion with players receiving DL eligibility.
DL status is updated every day, throughout the day, based on feeds from our data providers. It is important to note that there is often a gap between when a team announces a DL move will take place and when it actually happens. ESPN only offers DL status to players who are officially on the DL, regardless of expected length of absence.
For live assistance with this or any other issue, please call Customer Care at 1-888-549-3776 (ESPN) between 8:00 a.m. and 1:00 a.m. EST.
Regards,
Corey ESPN.com Customer Care

We just need a date to say anyone in free agency is a free agent. That's my opinion.

ESPN waits until the MLB team officially places the player on the DL. ESPN has no say in it. They don't want to be caught speculating.
