That question was already answered for you. That however, was not the point I was trying to make. So to answer your question, no?
Your point was that the commish should protect guys that should be protected on guys if people forget to export? Is that the point you were making?Neurotic wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 8:51 pmGeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Thu Jul 30, 2020 8:44 pm So what you are saying is this whole days conversation could have been circumvented by saying it was those teams that reached out from the beginning.

I can understand your argument George, I can. Part of me says, fuck em, it is on them, but it really depends on the situation of who the guys were and what is going on with them in the league.
If it is a guy that just literally forgot, but they are active, I have the fuckem attitude like you as they should be protecting more than the sim right before Rule 5, but if it is a guy who has not been around for a while, has exported like 25% and is most likely gone, then I can see the commish protecting that team for the better interest of the league.
A commish will do what is in the best interest of the league, as a whole.
What if the owner was inactive and now you let 6 guys get picked from their minors in Rule 5, that were stud players, lets say 1 80, 2 mid 70's, the rest 60+ rated.
How many season does that set that team back if they only had 8-9 guys worth a shit in their minors?
Now, have fun finding someone that wants to take over a team that had the #1 ranked minor league system, but after Rule 5, they are now 26th out of 30 teams.
It is in the best interest of the commissioner to protect the league the best they can.
If that means protecting a few guys, so be it.
You don't even have to activate them, just put them back on the 40 and/or move them to the 10 day. The sole purpose of the 60 day is to not occupy at 40 man spot for someone who is hurt for a long time. It's a helper, not a crutch.
A good owner non-tendered him because he has been dying for 2 seasons. He’s down to 50 contact. We will revisit this in a season or two and see how ya feel
July, come back to it in July
