Roster size ::: 22 / ::: Maximum 10 SP or SP/RP :::5 DL / ::: 3 Rookie Reserve

11 Pitchers Active Daily ::: 2 SP or SP/RP - 8 RP - 1 P (any type) ::: 11 Bench

IDEALS :::

• 10 Starters maximum... not counting DL slots.
  (Includes any players with both SP-RP ratings, regardless of real-world role)
  
  
• ADVISORY ::: The League does not approve of "tanking" categories, and encourages active participation in placing as high as possible in categories across the board.
  
  
• Including SAVES and HOLDS is intended to encourage equal use of Closers + Mid-Relievers.
  
  
• Any team found to have more than 10 active SPs will be warned first, and, if not in compliance within 2 days thereafter, will be locked for 2 days. Not only equitable, but this will keep us aware. If owner fails to volunteer to make roster adjustments, Commissioner will drop lowest rated SP from team's roster. To avoid this mistake, tally your SPs and (SP,RP), and keep the total in mind when working the waiver wire or making trades.
  
  
• Commissioner will periodically post innings used per team and how those rates project to end of season.
