I vote no on both. I'd be cool with decreasing the number of keepers by 1 or 2, no more than that though.

SAF will be the deciding vote on the DL debate, we need 2 more for a majority on the prospect roster debate

I'll vote yes on adding prospect spot. The more, the merrier.

What if he votes no? Then it's a tie.

Tie isn't majority, so the vote would go to the nays

SAF has voted in favor of both. The DL vote passes, still waiting on a few votes to determine the prospect roster vote

I thought we decided to increase by one each year until we hit 10 for the minor league team. Am I remembering that incorrectly?

Hmm, I actually remember that now too. And reading our minor league thread, it says it'll expand by one until 10 too. Thoughts?

There's an opening in a new points dynasty league I'm commishing with some people not on Blowout this year. Any of you guys interested? Let me know if so and I can get you some more details, but here's the basics:

-Fantrax
-Points with weekly matchups
-$25 buy in each year
-30 man MLB rosters, 15 man prospect rosters

Honestly, a lot of the settings are fairly similar to this league. Let me know if you might want in and I can add you to our Discord server, which is our main mode of communication

As an update on the Secret Santa thing, I was originally going to send my package a few weeks ago but I found a card at the last minute on eBay that I really wanted to include so I bought it. Unfortunately the seller clowned around and I didn't receive the card until today. So I will be sending my package in the next couple days. I'm sorry for the delay, it wasn't my fault.

Thoughts on prospect stuff? Still waiting on a few votes, as well as anyone/everyone to provide their thoughts since last year we passed a rule saying prospect rosters would expand by 1 each year until we have 10 slots

I am still fine with the +1 per year until we reach 10.

Also, I will need to add JP Crawford to my team from the minor league squad when it comes time for Keepers. Just alerting you now in case I forget and you guys can keep me in-line.

Braves Chop Fest was this weekend and I just so happened to have a Tux fitting in the Atl. on Sunday, so I hopped on down to Sun Trust and had a pretty success trip.

This year, you had to buy tickets to individual sessions and you were guaranteed 6 autos. I got the final session for Sunday and the line-up was Max Fried, Arodys Vizcaino, Sean Newcomb, Alex Jackson, Eddie Perez, and John Schuerholz (in order in figure 1.)



Got Fried and Alex Jackson on ball. Fried is below Jeff Treadway, Jackson is on my (non-intended) catcher portion (under Evan Gattis and Brett Cumberland).



Next, there was a list of possible attendees so I only had a small collection of cards on-hand. Luckily I had these 2 for Arodys and Eddie.



Finally, I wanted a unique autographed item when I went to a Rangers game last season, so I bought a couple old media guides to get signed. Here is one for the Braves. I had Newcomb sign in gold (didn't have a silver sharpie on me nor with him at the table...), but Schuerholtz did have a silver. So they are both on the media guide.
