Use them and properly manage your minors.

If you dont want to manage them, click "Ask AI to set up complete minor league system" and be done.

This is an easy one.

To Neurotic's point, would a team get fined if they only have 10 guys on their AA team?
I don't even care if it's +/-10% of the roster limit. But when you have 4 times the max that is a little crazy.

So would we put in a % like George suggested or would you have to be at the exact amount in each minor league level?

I would suggest, whatever limit is decided, we give this current season as the time limit for everyone to get each level right.
Then start fining teams come our next Offseason.

Also, question. Why the heck is AAA only a 24 man roster limit? Same with AA, and A is only 25. Shouldn't those all be 26 to match the ML rule? I get 25, but 24 makes absolutely zero sense to me.

This isnt rocket science people.

You know the limits to the minors, have your roster amounts near the limit, and be done with it.

Having 5 is ridiculous, having 50 is ridiculous. Use common sense.

While I agree with you, if Billy is going to start fining people, we need to define the limits. We can't have it up to his opinion on where teams should be.
Say within +/- 5% of the limit. Something to that effect.

Just go back to enforcing being at no more than 163 on Opening Day and be done with it.

Under i dont think is a issue. Thats on you. Over my issue is grabbing 100 dudes hoping one hits or improves.

And then combine it with AJs rule request as that is really hampering our growth of prospects and problems with the minors.

Unfortunately the age limit is trending towards a no go and this one trending towards being placed. :lol:

I'm surprised we have 5 people voting no on this. I'd love to hear their reasoning.

Like with many polls we have, our responses create confusion.

The OP's question is very clear and concise. But now we're talking about limits and 5-10% Over/Under, and it's just all confusing.

So I voted No to avoid said confusion. :lol:

I agree with Shel's thought process here. What is the roster limit that we agreeing to? How can we agree to something without the details?
