I was glad he was available. Otherwise he wouldn't be in my bullpen this year and be in yours.

I was getting worried our Rule 5 entertainment from our history has been a little quiet lately.

Thanks for breaking down your douchy comment even further.

I am thoroughly enjoying myself watching you try to defend asking for someone back from rule 5.
Best part of all this is you have 4 open spots on your 40 man. It wasn't even like you had to make a decision on who not to protect.

I don't understand how asking for my guys back is such a crime or is something that needs to be "defended". You don't want to? Fine. Acting super arrogant "Glad he was available

" and "you had weeks to add him" are comments that are dickish IMO. I think its super odd and strange to keep someones players solely based off a simple mistake and flat out refuse to return them. Anytime someone has asked for a pick back, I have agreed, because thats not how I want to win. I am honestly flabbergasted by the reaction I got for just asking for my guys back.
Losing a bunch guys in the Rule 5 draft due to a mistake and not getting a single one back gives me grounds to be upset. Sorry that my anger is "cringe worthy" but I have seen people get far more upset over way less impactful topics. Further more, all these conversions happened off line, I'm not the one who ran to the forums to bitch about it, adding to my frustration.

The issue is say a team like me who is over budget counts on rule 5 to add a couple guys that I NEED to fill my roster and team. Now because you were negligent, make no mistake it is complete negligence if you lose someone in rule 5 that you did not want to, no owner should be compelled to do that because he is not able to go back to the draft and choose the next guy he wanted. That opportunity is gone. I would not give a guy back either. The only difference is when a guy is signed in FA the sim the pool is released, that is more tricky but I try to eliminate those by adding them to 40 man that sim myself.

Guess that is the major difference in option here. I would and do feel 1000% compelled to give draft picks back. Losing one rule 5 draft pick is certainly not going to make or break anyone's roster, however losing 5 picks in one draft will. I wouldn't want to significantly impact someones organization for a single roster spot.

With yourself, that's about the only person you have grounds to be upset with.
Oddly enough, Hank never asked for Mcguire back.

The bright side here for you is that you don't have to compete with Boston, Richmond, Sheltown and Steel City with your move to the NL and losing all those guys in rule 5.

I don't know why anyone would expect someone to give up a player/pick to over for their mistake without any compensation. Give the guy something to replace missing out on that Rule 5 pick, that's obviously the most fair way to handle it.

The real major difference here is I would never neglect my team long enough to not protect guys I wanted to protect.
