That's not a good reason. There's plenty of depth, just not being utilized. I looked at the Red Sox and there's at least 3-4 players who do not belong in majors that could easily replaced with a replacement-level free agent without disrupting your talent in AAA. I looked at the Reds and they are starting Hilgendorf meanwhile Barrios is at 7 AR, 28 years old, sitting there. I looked at the Pirates and well...no signings in FA, so of course there's no depth. I've come to the realization that I may have to force replacement-level signings so that the sub-.300 teams DO have depth WITHOUT disrupting the intent to rebuild. Make people sign FAs. I'm leaning in this direction as an easy short-term fix. Perhaps a policy where I police rosters of any team under .300 and force FA signings (but run it through thread).

I still think we should consider Dougies idea of no reversals, losing points, and fining cash for teams under a certain amount of wins. That combined with a lottery.
This league has had reversals since the start...good luck with that

I'd never make a GM sign a player unless it was an extreme case where they don't even have a minor league player at the position or something. I allocate my money into points when I'm not going for it that year. If you sogn the best available players no one will make you sign anyone.

I totally wouldve said..."watch the tone bub!"
But it would've been misinterpreted.

He had the nerve to seriously question my commitment to this league after 1 particular post like wtf I put in as much work as anyone not named Chris into this league, so if this dude would've noticed that I run the banks and do a lot for this league he wouldn't have made that laughable comment. Idc I'm just pointing out what I see in this dude.
