SPECIAL NOTE: Roster Correction

When I enter the rosters at the stat service after each Draft Day, there are typically 15 or so minor leaguers who were selected by CFCL teams in the Rotation Draft by who are not yet in Sportsline's player data base.

In order for these guys to show up on rosters at Sportsline, I've got to type them in manually as placeholders. Unfortunately, there's no notification when they're eventually added to the data base by Sportsline.

One such player this year was the Ruffins' Thomas Hanson. I had listed him on the Ruffins roster (as Tommy Hansen), but he eventually was added to the Sportsline where he showed up as a free agent. The DoorMatts noticed him, and acquired him via FAAB on May 12.

Dave Holian just noticed Hanson on the DoorMatts roster, and called the error to my attention. Luckily, since Hanson was never called up to the majors, or the the DoorMatts' active roster, this one's fairly easy to straighten out.

Hanson will be removed from the DoorMatts' roster and placed on the Ruffins. In addition, Matt Herges will be reinstated to the DoorMatt's reserve list (that's who they'd released when they "acquired" Hanson), along with the .06 in FAAB they spent on him.

I apologize to everyone, especially the Ruffins and DoorMatts for the error. Thankfully Hanson never accrued stats for the DoorMatts - that would have been rather hairy indeed (though we probably would have noticed earlier).

Speaking of noticing - I publish the full FAAB results each week. Be sure to check these postings out and if you see a familiar name going to another team, speak up. Now that we can acquire minor leaguers via FAAB, I don't recognize a quarter of the names being bid on. As long as he's listed in the Sportsline pool as a free agent, he's OK by me.
