I'm still not completely sure on the timing aspect of it. But you highlighted the below, which, if I'm interpreting this correctly, means they would be moving default to a "Daily-Today" since waivers will be continuous: You didn't quote the rest of it where the answer is: In a significant change for public and pro leagues, continuous waivers with FAAB (Free Agent Acquisition Budget) will now be used to claim players instead of Free Agents. You will make claims to add players for the next day same as ever. However, claims are resolved by price paid and ties are broken by waiver priority. Ā In basketball leagues, the setting was originally "Daily-Tomorrow" but then was changed to "Daily-Today" a few weeks into the season (pretty major to be making that change in-season, but I welcomed the change). So I would assume Yahoo-commissionedĀ baseball leagues will become "Daily-Today" as well. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I was able to edit them last year. I edit rosters due to trades every year in my Yahoo keeper before the draft.Ā I'm pretty sure you need to finalize the team list first, then you can make changes. Through assign keepers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Definitely levels the playing field and makes all adds fair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My yahoo league is 30 active roster spots plus additional IL and NA spots, 2 each for total of 34. What's the total cap? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ā Right, but as BBT details above, the max carryover is 30, so keeper/dynasty commissioners have to do a bunch of off-the-books homework to preserve rosters between seasons.Ā NA players aren't exempted from the 30 player cap, and IL isn't a thing in the offseason. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ahhhhh ok i misunderstood... You are talking strictly off-season roster, got ya. Yeah for our keeps they need to be within 30 man, after the draft everyone slides them over and it's a bidding war for spare parts after the draft. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tonycpsu 5,384 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Right, that's what we've done in our league, and it really limits how deep you can go on prospects.Ā The market value of deeper upside plays is reduced when teams can only carry over 30 players.Ā It's such a no-brainer change to make, particularly when they're advertising a deeper prospect pool as a new feature.Ā Great, but who's going to reach for the 12th best guy in a system when they can't carry them over without manual bookkeeping?

Ā I'm going to need help understanding this as I make roster changes on the reg in yahoo pro leagues. My main question revolves around WHEN to makeĀ a claim. Ā Last year, if i wanted say Robinson Cano for a Thursday game, I would go in on Wednesday afternoon and pick Cano up as a FA and he would show up on my roster for Thursday. If a player was on waivers and I was able to claim him on the morning of Thursday, he wouldn't be on my roster until Friday.Ā Ā Now, with continuous waivers, Cano will always be on waivers. In the same scenario, if I wanted to pick him up for a Thursday game, do IĀ put in a claim for him on Wednesday? Or is it Tuesday? If waivers are run Thursday morning, won't that mean the roster change won't take place until Friday? Or is continuous waivers different in that aspect? Basically, in my example above, is itĀ A: Put claim on Cano on Tuesday, Waivers run Wednesday morning, Rosters adjusted for Thursday gamesĀ or B: Claim Cano on a Wednesday, Waivers run Thursday for Thursday games.Ā Ā Ā Ā I'm playing yahoo pro nba and they implemented in there, at first you would put a claim in monday, it goes through very early tuesday morning but wouldn't be able to use until wednesday, they switched in a few weeks in and gave like a weeks notice because it was dumb, so now that same example I used the player is available tuesday.
