CardsGM (Mat): D. WAIVED PLAYER CONTRACT BUYOUTS: (Changed per league vote on 1/17/20)

1. Once players have cleared waivers without being claimed, the waiving team will have the option of a 100% buyout, has to be all at once as voted upon in a league constitution poll. Sept 23, 2020 12:44:22 GMT -5

CardsGM (Mat): For those already working on 2021 rosters, remember the ARB increases. (Arb 1 = $1.4M, Arb 2 = $2.9M) Just noticed it cost me $5.5M in increases, so they're having intended effect. Sept 14, 2020 5:02:20 GMT -5

OriolesGM (Tyler): Polls have been locked. The 2020 fantasy season will be played under the proposed schedule via the poll. Games start tomorrow! Jul 22, 2020 16:08:44 GMT -5
