As of 6/3/11, by executive ruling of the Commissioner, the league is having a strict policy on allowing GMs to move from one franchise to another. All GM openings will initially go internal with a 72 hour period for existing GMs to apply to the job. If there are no applications then the position will be filled from someone on the waiting list or external posting with the best applicant being given the position. Internal transfers are allowed for GMs who have served with their existing franchise for nine or more months. GMs who have less than one year of service with their franchise, but more than nine months are not guaranteed the ability to move to another team, but will be considered based on their activity in the league. All of these dates have been kept in the franchise histories that are contained in the Official Team Threads.
Internal transfers will be granted to GMs who have served the longest with their existing franchise. Tiebreakers (considered for seven day or less difference between two or more GMs) is handled by then looking at continuous FGM tenure and then overall FGM tenure. The next tiebreakers are subjective and are based on how the MLB team has improved in record under each GM’s leadership. Non-FGM, ProFSL experience only aids as a last tiebreaker. If you know you are out of the running for a team you really want then feel free to ask the other internal applicants to step aside and please give them great reasons for doing so.

Following GMs are almost here for a year, but have served at least nine months garnering them the ability to move to a new franchise if they were a proven and active GM.

I can't believe I am tied with Rob for the 6th longest tenure here. I always thought of myself as a relative newbie to this league!

Agreed 100%.

Keep in mind that Jake has a longer FGM tenure than the two of you. He is part of our original four (was five but M.J. became more and more inactive). Ben was an original GM that was a hired a few weeks later than the league start date.

I was actually not quite an original, I missed the first week or two and another GM let all the good names go to LAD ;)

That is what I said... But there was no other GM. The person never even signed up at the then MLDB.

Very nice Colbs. Makes it way easier to handle the situation!

If anything, we could allow the RC to vote on GM transfer candidate tiebreakers (within one week) where metrics are:
1) Farm improvement
2) Team's standing in current and previous seasons
3) Team's wins in current and previous seasons
