Basic Requirements
You must be an active member of ProFSL.
Franchise Name
Your franchise name is tied to the actual MLB franchise, using their AAA affiliate. If the team name changes, or the franchise moves to a different city, your team name must adapt.
Roster Size
Your MLB roster can be no more than 40 active players. Your minor league roster can be no more than 80.
Original Rosters (2019)
Original rosters reflect players that the franchise has as of April1st, 2019. Any minor league players not inherited or requested will be considered free agents.
Owners rosters are determined by team rosters as of 7/1/19 actual MLB rosters with all contracts grandfathered as is into WAR.
2019 contracts are listed and the season is scheduled to start 2020.
The offseason will allow for players on expiring 2019 deals to be resigned and retained by that players team.
Players must either be on record as making his MLB debut (example "Joe Smith will be called up on Wednesday to make his first MLB start" he may then be called up immediately to not miss his debut) or have played in at least 1 MLB game to be eligible for active 40 man roster.
Prospects
Teams will have its Top 50 prospects posted and listed on rosters. Because top 50 specs may also occupy 40 man roster spots teams can elect to Max out initial rosters at 90 players by adding any minor league player not on the top 50 list. Each team can elect to fill it's roster to an initial 90 player Max by adding prospects and teams may elect to swap prospects off the top 50 for specs who are not top 50.
All posts should be made on the transactions page.
League Site
The league will be on the Fantrax scoring system.
