2017 Penalty Changes for Position Players:
Starting in 2017 there is going to be a change in the Penalty for not having a position player in your 25 player lineup.
Not having a Starting position player will be -10 and not -4.
Not having a Bench position player will be -5 and not -2.
This is being done "In the Best Interest of the League" and for the "Competitive Nature of the League"!
It is every GM's responsibility to FIRST field a competitive lineup.
This means having 25 healthy MLB players in your lineup.
You can field your 40 player roster however you see fit but if you do not have a full 25 player lineup, higher PENALTY POINTS for not fielding that lineup will be enforced.
GM's like prospects which are needed for future success but having a proper lineup is Required!
Thank you for your cooperation in this matter and prepare your 40 player roster properly!!!
