With Free Agency starting around the corner, please take the time to read this.
First, Please Make Sure your Fantrax Rosters are up to date!!! This means your roster matches the proboards one, and all players that are free agents on your roster are dropped. This will make searching for Free Agents much easier.
Second, Your Proboards roster should be accurate. This includes your Salary Cap information.
Posting Free Agents will not be done Within a Postional thread this year. Rather, Please post each player, with position, in a seperate thread post under the offseason thread (This is exactly how Brad has started the process, so lease follow in suit). This will make it easier read through the free agents and should eliminate double posting.
Other rules for free agency are posted below:

Thursday is last day to post Free Agents. Friday at midnight all bids must be in to the MLBPA acct
2 REMINDERS:
1) Players signed under a UFA can't be traded for 30 days after the first game of the season. (this prevents teams from signing 10 players to trade them away for different assets. Spend Wisely)
2) International Players Age 24 and older are eligible to be bid on. Since they have no MLB experience, they are subject to signing bonus rules. (Rule 8 for refresher). **I doubt Moncada Signs by Thursday, but if he does, considering the demand and the price tag for him, we will make an exception to have him bid on this week when there are still plenty of FA dollars to go around. IF HE DOES NOT SIGN, He will be bid on during our Prospect bidding period (MAY).
