No, I don't want Low Minors to be a spot for players that ended up not being signed. We will def keep the eligibility for our draft upon player who got drafted and signed with an MLB organization. I think IFAs should be held the way we decided back this year. Over 18 they will be auction. Under 18 they are draft eligible. It was only a suggestion. I do like the idea of low minors though. Question about INT age, then what would an 18 year old be? Auction or draft |

So just to clarify, if we have more than 5 picks, do we need to place 5 of them in the low minors? I imagine a scenario like this:
Team A has 7 picks and has 5 open MiLB spots (plus the 5 low minors)
So Team A assigns 5 of his guys to the MiLB, 2 to his low minors and now he has 3 spots open in the low minors, is he going to be able to take undrafted players? Or are the undrafted players only going to be available for teams with less than 5 picks?
If I promote a guy from my low minors to my MiLB roster, am I going to be allowed to use that open spot to sign another undrafted player?
I like the idea a lot, I only feel we need to polish the details about it

Wait, so if Under 18 they are draft eligible why did we bid on Kevin Maitan? He's 16 and just signed on July, shouldn't he have been available for this draft? Kind of like what happened with Vladimir Guerrero Jr, etc. Top International FAs that sign on july should be available for that year's draft, right? |

We bid on them because there was no rule in place. Now there is. So for the future, we will bid on players who are over 18. That means once a Player is 18 years old. I know it sucks for many who bid/drafted on players but now there is a rule and I think irbid the way to go. IFA in real life is messy.  If you have 8 picks you have to make room for 3 players on your MiLB. The other 5 have to be drafted to the low minors. And when the next draft starts the 5 low minors have to be either promoted to the MiLB or dropped. When the next daft starts the low minors have to be empty again. Kevin Maitan was on the list I made of IFAs. So he was part of the IFA auctions. as this is part of the past it will not be changed but from now on we have this very basic rule. |

I understand about a guy coming over from Japan like Maeda but if the INT FA is a kid of 16 then what?
I know last year Hannes posted a listing of like 75+ INT FAs who were eligible for the draft. By chance will the league have the same luxury with a new updated listing?
What I don't understand is an INT FA can be unsigned and drafted in our yearly MILB, for example Lazado or Vladimir Gutierrez, but an American player who was drafted and not signed cannot be drafted? I don't understand the real difference between the two. If Moncada was an INT FA for auction at the time of his age two years ago, I might be wrong but maybe 16, then why have some of the other under 18 guys haven't been auctioned but they can be drafted.

I was writing my response Hannes as you posted yours.

Yeah I was not expecting it to change on Maitan, it would've been extremely unfair for Pittsburgh, just wanted to clarify that point.
Okay I see now, thanks for the clarifications!

I agree with Jorge.
Thanks for the extra 5 low level minors idea Hannes and Bryan.
I for one appreciate this at the moment.

I believe we benefit from adding the low minors but keep it the way originally described. |

Hey I have a couple new questions about scenarios that will probably arise
What happens if team A drafts a player but he doesn't have enough low minors spots, so he puts him in his MiLB roster. Then a month later he trades that player to team B that has Low Minor spots available. Is team B going to be allowed to place the player in low minors?
Or the other scenario, considering we traded a guy in our low minors, are we allowed to fill that spot again? So if team A sends a guy to team B and has an open low minor spot, is he going to be allowed to acquire a player from team C's lower minors and place him there?

So if team A sends a guy to team B and has an open low minor spot, is he going to be allowed to acquire a player from team C's lower minors and place him there? Question 1: If a team has 12 picks then 5 players of his choice go to the Low Minors. The rest goes to the MiLB. Question 2: If a team trades a player that is Low Minor eligible, he can fill his Low Minors spots. But this is only allowed for player drafted & signed this year. Question 3: For example you drafted a full 5 Low Minors roster and you trade all 5 away, you can add players to the Low Minors. But again, only players that were drafted and signed this year. |

i know this league likes to sometimes over complicate things so how about just add 5 more milb spots and call it a day?

I am unsure exactly what constitutes Low-minor and how it would different with an MiLB player. Extrapolation required.

I am pretty sure that if everyone reads the full thread you will see what the idea is. However, to paraphrase this for Hannes:
We would add the low minors. Which is a place consisting of 5 spots designated for players drafted by us yearly. Players drafted this year in 2016 would be required to be removed from there before 2017 draft. Players can only be drafted in and promoted out. No demoting back to low minors. Once they move, they stay gone. If manager has more than 5 picks, first 5 go in low minors, remaining go to MiLB. I thought it was pretty simple and straight forward.

I thought it was pretty simple and straight forward. great explanation , i would like to say i just realized though that the 1st 5 picks would go to low minors from the draft , where as i would like to see that modified , it is more likely that a player chosen in the 1st couple rounds will make the big leagues sooner than a player chosen say in the 3rd or 4th round .... so i think it would be better if the last 5 players in order were put to low minors ... if u have 5 picks or less no biggie , as for me i have 8 picks and would prefer picks 8,7,6,5,4 go low minors and the top 3 picks i made go milb , i am glad u explained this though as it helps me better understand what we r looking at |
