[Bbuddhas at aol.com]

I agree   move within the guys we left Morningstar with till  4/5...  then 
FAAB up until 4/11 for moves on 4/12.

  I am not at all proposing mid-week FAAB action.  I  only wanted to state 
that FAAB should not go forward until after  the AL teams set their 25-man 
rosters.  I do suppose that in theory  a team can place a bid whenever it wanted; 
what we care about is when the  results are posted, namely on Saturday so 
participating teams can  adjust their rosters for the following week.
  In any event, we do agree on this issue, if not on the season's  likely 
runner-up.
Regards,
Brad

Whoa,  there, Mr. Future Runner Up.  When you say the first FAAB activity  
should by established in the "early part of the following week," surely you  are 
not contemplated mid-week FAAB bidding, which we have never done.   If so, I 
do not think we can or should do that.  I agree with Buddha;  we should have 
the first FAAB bidding after 25-man rosters are set.  We  can allow roster 
moves effective 4/5.

Dear League:
Buddha's point is taken, and it's taken well.
 Accordingly, I vote as follows:
   1.  Teams can adjust their current rosters (as I  see some already have) 
with moves effective noon Sunday, 4/5.
    2. The 1st FAAB activity should be  established the early part of the 
following week when AL teams have  finalized their 25-man rosters. So, if we have 
time limits similar to  last season, a player acquired via FAAB cannot be 
activated until noon,  Sunday, 4/12.
        Q: under new site if we  waive a player and are entitled to FAAB 
reimbursement, must MBB  manually add dollars back to our budget.  It's never too 
early to  plan ahead.

I  guess that makes sense if the pool would still include players who are  
essentially minor leaguers.  But we still need to set a "reporting  period" so 
we can adjust our rosters with activate/reserve  moves.

I do not think we should have any FAAB until the following  week......rosters 
will be at 30 players still.  What is the harm  in waiting 1 week?  Let the 
voting  begin.
