This is a rehash from the old site. Only 13 owners voted and it was 7-6 so we wanted to bring it to the floor again. If it is voted to limit playoff roster moves the restrictions will be decided on at a later date.

SO looks like this one is settled, do we have ideas on how we want to limit the moves, will it be a hard ## limit per day/week or only allow for picks ups due to injury?

We will definitely have to talk about it. Injuries I think should be a given. Whether injuries are included in a "set" limit or not will need to be discussed.

An issue I have run into in other leagues is that people stash an injured player and then later in playoffs want to pick up a replacement, the player would at least need to be injured during the playoffs and not end of regular season so that you carry injured players into a period where others cannot make pickups, but limiting it to the actual scoring period is also an issue as you might have a guy get injured on Saturday or Sunday and think he will be back and then he does not. It is a tricky situatuion, be good to have others share thoughts.

All thoughts are welcomed. Those are good points as we want to make sure "loop holes" aren't available.

September is kind of a crazy time in MLB, with expanded rosters, teams generally not using the DL, and funky lineups for those out of the race. Because of that I'd be in favor of giving our teams some latitude with the rules about playoff rosters. Was the main concern that our playoff teams were streaming in players? A couple of thoughts would be to not allow a player to be picked up more than once throughout the playoffs. OR having a team's roster set (no substitutes to the 25-man roster) for each round, with a window for adds/drops before the next round.
As an owner who has not sniffed our playoffs in two years, I have to remind everyone that it's quite possible I don't know what the hell I'm talking about. But anyway...

What we're trying to avoid is what Andy did last season in the championship. In the final days he was adding 3-5 players per day and added 10 players on the final day of the season. That doesn't mimic real life baseball, which this league tries to do in most facets.
A limit of three moves per matchup (6 for the two-week championship) is more than enough in my opinion.

Exactly...Having cap space and more than a few guys on one year deals allowed me to basically morph my roster during the playoffs to where the minor pieces of my roster were constantly changing. Ted had more FAAB money so he had the advantage of guys he could outbid me on, but because of the reasons stated earlier I had the advantages of numbers. Ultimately, we'd like to have guys win in the playoffs with a roster that looks more like what got them there then, like Ryan said, one that uses a massive amount of pickups.
