League Announcement (WAR BEGINS!) Q&A

[Daddy]

WAR UPDATE

WAR will begin the season on fantrax next week. The insuing results and standings will be considered "Spring Training Results".

The official WAR Regular Season will begin April 2020. 2019 off season will begin 8/1 with trading open.

FA wont begin until the league is full, all owners will be allowed to trade & release players however no signings until FA opens to include prospects.

Brent: When do we have to have our free drop posted?

Daddy: @Brent if you know the player, post away.


I will update contracts by the start of "spring training" monday.

When we take over a team, essentially for the 2020 season, are we taking on the 2020 contracts and beyond?

Example:
Say payroll for a team currently is $170m, but on Spotrac it is going to be $130m for 2020 due to expiring contracts.
Does that apply to us as well? ...So we would have to re-sign or let go of expiring contracts in our off-season?

[indiansnation]

yes u will get option to resign those guys or they become fa

What is the roster cutoff day to determine who is on what roster?

What is the roster cutoff day to determine who is on what roster?

It was supposed to be as of 4/1/19 but the draft happened and we allowed it.

Since the situation is fluid I could use opinion on the topic by the league. 

It either has to be 4/1 or 7/1
I don't mind putting it to an open vote.

7/1 would include 2019 draft and leave out 2019 J2 Int FAs.  That's not a bad idea.

I agree with Brent here. Gives new potential owners the chance to edit their rosters from the July 1st.

[indiansnation]

I am ok with 7/. Matter of fact i started adding thr first 3 rounds of players drafted this yr draft already

[RyanJames5]

I don’t think 7/1 is a bad idea at all. Leaving the J2 international free agents for free agency, but giving draft picks makes a lot of sense.

[Yeagg]

I'd be fine with J-2 signings being allowed on their current teams but if the league wants them as FA then I'm cool with that too
