RULES CHANGE PROPOSAL - Increase 60 day IR spots

[ldsjayhawk]

This proposal will proceed to an official league poll, to be posted "shortly."

I show only 7 supporters for.  We need one more to move to a poll

For the Rules Committee
I meant to address this earlier.  It's totally on me.

I would like each of you to post on the currently existing thread:

Support: Y/N
If yes, should this begin immediately?  Y/N

I'm only considering this because I dropped the ball.  We got to 7 sponsors, but never got an 8.  It seems like there is wide support for this account those who responded.

Feel free to leave comments about your position as well.  Thanks!

Anyone is welcome to comment.  Only rules committee members votes will count.

[rcankosy]

Yes to both

I would also support a shorter Injured List, since it is tracked by Fantrax with a flag designation next to the player.

[RyanJames5]

Yes, I support a larger IL

I'm for keeping the 60-day at two. I don't see that many on the 60 day in MLB to qualify for our IL. There are currently 54 players on the 60-day DL throughout MLB. Less than 2/team
What I see most is day-to-day. For a little perspective: https://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/injuries/
As for a 7,10 or 15 day IL being added, consider that players placed on IR can be replaced thru FA. Looks like a nightmare trying to keep up with. Players can be stashed indefinitely on the IR if GM's don't keep up. There are enough problems getting GMs to update their prospect contracts on a regular basis let alone players going on/off IL

[DaveW]

Yes I support and yes would suggest starting immediately

[NippyJones]

I support increasing the 60 day IR spots immediately but only the 60 day.
