They were drawing Social Security checks while on your A ball roster.

But I never put them there is my confusion. They are valuable parts of my BLB roster.

That I can not answer. There were 33 players on your A ball roster and I found those guys there. If it had been a normal SIM morning I probably would have realized who exactly they were, but being a fairly procedural heavy SIM with the DFAs I didn't immediately recognize who they were. Apologies, I'll do what I can to get them back on your roster.

Here's where things look odd. Mike del Rio was also dfa through no action of my own, but he was on the AAA roster. Why would I dfa a starter?

Look at Buck. He is dfa on April 17. Yet 13 days later he's demoted to A ball. How? I couldn't do that because I would need him to clear waivers first.

Three players from my BLB roster, one a starter, were demoted to A ball and never replaced. Why would I do that? What benefit do I gain by sending Banuelos to A ball so I could be without my #3 hitter and a replacement. I went this week with a roster of 22, straining my backup catcher and having no backups for my outfielders or infielders.

This all happened without my control. We went 5-1 so it's easy to not really care but now I'm without players I need because they are dfa and can be claimed.

Not mad at you, just confused. Either someone has my password and messed with my roster or the game did some mass weirdness.

I'll open my game shortly and check. Always possible I did something. Not sure how though.

I hear you and I'd be frustrated too. I don't recall seeing any issues like this before.


Note: Please don't claim any Denver players this week. They will be returned to Denver anyway, so please save the headache!

4-2 for the Brawlers and only a 6 run 9th by the Rats kept us from going 5-1. Nice showing from the pitching staff this week despite that blown 9th inning.

I appreciate the help Brad. But again I didn't want to blame you because I'm sure it had to be explained some other way.

I opened my copy and there are my BLB players on my A ball roster. I have no idea how I could have done that so proceed how you wish. I appreciate you helping out and getting them back on for me but this is 100% my fault.

I can't even begin to figure out how it happened especially since some AAA players ended up down there. I'm confused.

If there were any remaining doubts about whether Andrew could build elite teams...

[Guest]

So far looking like my offseason turnover of my roster has been a major failure, though injuries are taking out two key pieces of the puzzle. But, really, look at this:



Holy hell

If there were any remaining doubts about whether Andrew could build elite teams...

There were not, but point still taken.

There shouldn't be. There used to be some chatter about how much Andrew might have rode his luck in the inaugural draft in Maine.

sorry about the DFA, just got power back on here in JAX
