2010 Auction League Important Dates


All Times are Central Time

January 1 == This is the start of the Winter Trading Period. Trades made during this period do not have to be even as far as positions are concerned and your roster does not have to stay at 23 players.

March 1 == I would like an e-mail from everyone by this date that they are playing in the league for 2010. If nothing is received, I will have to assume that there is no interest.

March 5 == We will start voting on rules changes for 2010 and I would like everyone to start checking their email everyday to keep up on league happenings.

March 23 - Tuesday Midnight == This is the end of the Winter Trading Period.

March 24 - Wednesday 11 PM == You must turn in your list of players that you are retaining for the 2010 Season. Go to Keeper List Guidelines for the procedure.

March 28 - Sunday Noon == This is the date for the Auction. It will be held at SRO Sports Bar near 290 and 610 in Northwest Mall. If there are any conflicts with the date, please let me know as soon as possible.

August 31 - 11 PM == This is the end of Regular Season Trading Period.

September 15 - Noon == No Bids may be started on players after this date.

October 9 - Saturday 8 PM == This is the deadline for turning in your Winter Roster. It must consist of 23 Players that fit the positions indicated in the rules. You may also keep one Minor Leaguer who has a "Drafted" status in his contract year (if any remain on your team). No Salary Cap is in effect on the Winter Roster. Please send me an email with the moves you wish to make on your inactive players.
== You must decide which end of Links you are keeping and drop the other end. If you keep the active link, he becomes a Topper Player. This DOES NOT count as a Move.
== Any Players on the Injury or Minor List that does not have a Link may be activated and any other player dropped or the Non-Linked inactive player may be dropped. This DOES NOT count as a Move.
== If you want to retain both ends of a Link and drop a third player, you may use a Move (if any remain) to do this. In this case, the active Link becomes a Topper Player. If you use this option, please email what the move was.
== If an Owner has no DL/ML players, he must send me an e-mail to express his desire to play next season.
== If no action is taken by an Owner on his Winter Roster, I will assume that there is no interest for 2011 and seek another person to take over the team.
