<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="FONT-SIZE: 14pt; FONT-FAMILY: "Times New Roman",serif">1. Some but not all teams submitted FAAB bids yesterday, apparently because some forgot that there was no FAAB bidding this past week (see my email with the schedule of
dates). I am going to work with Onroto to reverse all of those transactions, but let me know what corrective actions the affected teams want to take that involved the same players that were waived or reserved.</span></p>

contingency plans.</span></p>
