Nine shopping days left until Christmas, eight shopping days left until Hanukkah but the bigger issue is only 15 Decision Days left until Winter Waivers.
Your Winter Waiver cuts are due by 3pm of the first Sunday of January. The Calendar Gods are screwing with those of you that are party animals, because the first Sunday of January in 2017 is also known as New Year's Day! So if you are going to be doing it big on New Year's Eve, I would suggest submitting your Winter Waivers PRIOR to January 1st.
I need to receive all cuts by 3pm Sunday the 1st. First claiming period will then be 3pm, Thursday, January 5th.
You all know the drill and the detailed rules are in the Constitution, but highlights are:
Keep 23 players.
No positional requirements. Keep 23 catchers if you want.
No salary cap.
DO NOT get caught in the thinking that you have to waive 17 players (you had a 40 man roster last year so to keep 23 you would cut 17). That may not be the case. You cannot waive an "S" contract player or a "16" contract players. Those guys have already been purged from your team. So it's possible you currently have a roster of 35 players. That means you only have to waive 12 players.
If you have questions, visit the Constitution. Send me an e-mail.
Oh, and have a Happy and Safe holiday!!

Can't wait to see the feeding frenzy for Giolito given the in-season interest he has evoked the past few years...bleh.
