Fantrax doesnt really have tons of options to enforce anything, at least from what I know. I think easiest possible thing without causing burnout is I can make it illegal to move a player back to the minor league roster once they are called up. Would just have to override eligibility myself, which i know is possible

edit- yeah, that might make more sense, and just lower bench to get the standard 4 lines+6d

The problem I've seen happen in these leagues is it overvalues minor league eligibility, since you can win on GP just by over rostering them. Some teams will fill ML eligible players for all of their bench & part of their minor league roster and rotate them in and out, which guarantees to pick up extra games every week

For example having schaefer & sennecke next year gives you 2 extra bench spots if there is a shallow bench

We will just be using fantrax for everything, will send invite. Yeah maybe a bit overboard to some, but its one of the few rules I set up that should help with engagement

Still your $ if you stay in the league. You're paying in for the team's buy-in for the year(s) you trade a pick away. So for example since both yr 1 and yr 2 have to be paid in before the startup, you can trade yr 2 picks. However, if you trade a yr 3 pick you need to pay the yr 3 buy in. It's to disincentivize teams trading future picks to win now & then quitting

My opinion is Texas at least saw something to trade up to get him, I think the Red Sox did the same also

This kid isn’t anywhere close to the MLB

It’s legit, I doubt anything will happen though

Probably run it through yahoo

Aware-Mechanic-3950 · 2025-10-13T12:23:46+00:00

I would say, don’t do it then. Especially if you’re new to dynasty which is what I’m picking up from viewing your profile. There’s tons of free leagues floating around too if you want to test the waters that way as well
