MLB Call Ups/MiLB Send Downs Rules
1. This is where you will post if you are promoting a player to your MLB Roster via creating a thread. Player salary will be bumped to MLB minimum of $2, if not already higher.
2. This is where you will post sending down a player that has options from your active roster to your minor league roster via creating a thread.
3. You are not required to promote a player if he is called up in real life.
4. Options:
a. When using options to send a player down to the minors the minor league salary cap of $100 must be maintained.
b. Only players that have options remaining will be able to be moved to your minors without clearing waivers. If you send a players to the minors/DFA that does not have options,and want to keep them if they clear waivers this must be posted to Proboards in the Waivers section.
c. Players with under 3 years service time will have options to use until they run out, also after 3 years any unused options will fall off.
d. Players will have a total of 6 options over the 3 year period, avg of 2 a year but that doesn’t mean you have to use the 2 each year, they can carry over, but again after the 3 years they all fall off. For players that already have service time, we will prorate the options. Baseball Reference and other sites will be used to deem a players service to as close as possible.
e. Any player that is sent to minors in real life can be sent to your minor leagues without using an option. Though they must be under the 3 years service time to do this.
f. When a player is moved from MLB roster to MiLB roster they will retain their MLB salary.
g. During off-season trading teams will be allowed to use options for incoming players.
h. Once teams MLB Keepers have been locked no options will be allowed until after MLB Auction Draft
**It is important to make sure you post these moves to keep roster sheets, available options left and salary caps accurate.
**I will post a sample here
