FAAB ADJUSTMENTS!
Hey everyone. In the course of researching past transactions, I became aware of the fact that the system has stealthily charged $1 for every commisioner-executed pickup since the start of the season.
Not sure how this happened, but after discussing things with the folks at RT Sports, we have retroactively credited those who were affected wtih additional FAAB.
I'll have an email out soon with more details.
Thanks,
steve

Setting your lineups for Week 1
Just a quick reminder that if you're starting Dodgers or Cubs players, you need to get them in your active lineup before first pitch on Tuesday morning.
You still have until next Thursday (3/27) to make changes to the rest.
Later this week, we will have an official list of MLB players expected to start the season on the IL, allowing you to put them on your IL and create roster space for FAAB pickups on Sunday 3/23.
Thanks and good luck this season!
The Commish
