RULES CHANGE PROPOSAL - Increase 60 day IR spots

[ldsjayhawk]

I would like to propose an increase in the number of IR spots allowed.  Personally, I would be open to an unlimited number, but I am open to suggestions for an alternative to unlimited.  Please note all cap hits would still be observed.

MLB has 7 and 10-Day Injured Lists. Plus, the unprecedented increase in pitchers going on the IL makes it highly reasonable to greatly expand the number of players on the IL

Therefore, I support 3 options that we could put to a vote.

1. Unlimited players on Injured List
2. 10 Players on Injured List
3. 15 players on Injured List

I was opposed to the original 2 player IL but after losing a starting rotation to TJ this year unlimited spots looks more reasonable.

I support increasing this.  I believe salary cap is sufficient limitation.  I like the flexibility this provides to cover for injuries.

I agree and introduce where a team only pays 50% to an IR listed player

I support an increase to an unlimited IL during the season, but would prefer to keep no IL during the offseason (the current practice).
