ESPN doesn't have minor league roster spots.

So shall we...?

1. Switch sites.
2. Track separate and use the honor system.
3. Forget the minors, and just run the keepers.

[schisno]

what sites use minor league players?

[Witlon]

Yahoo definitely has the NA/Minor League spots. I was trying to check MLB.com yesterday, but I never got to it before work.

How does the mionor league system work in fantasy? you just draft guys in the minor leagues and then if they get called up you ad them to your roster?

[schisno]

Pretty much, but because it's a keeper league you're more or less getting first dibs on the next big star. Imagine if you had Mike Trout, Albert Pujols in your minors, that'd be big because you have instant offense for your team. It also adds some realism where you can call up players.

[papercrain]

but wouldn't those two guys be on your big league roster? or were you just using them as hypothetical examples?

would it be more like if you draft Kris bryant and Byron Buxton and had them in the minors and then you could call them up when their real teams call them up?

Yeah the first was an example, but that's pretty much how you would use minor leaguers. Depends on how obscure you want them to be because you could wait forever for a prospect like C Mike Reeves who was drafted in the 21st round.

Who wants to set it up?

[Witlon]

We've only got 6 people.

[Foster]

For some reason I thought we had more....

[Witlon]

We had 7 sign up, and Papercrain disappeared.
