Phillies GM (John): I see a lot of guys on the player list on fantrax as FA who happen to be Fa in real life 2024-12-08, 12:25:48

Guardians GM (Nate): All FYPD picks should now be added to Fantrax.  Please let us know if you see any errors. 2024-12-08, 13:20:12

Rays GM (Norm): Once an owner wins a bid on a player contract, his real contract is irrelevant.  2024-12-09, 00:14:58

Phillies GM (John): how did guys like Soto or Wheeler end up on the player list on fantrax? No one owns them now? 2024-12-09, 11:13:49

PadresGM (Gene): My understanding is that thye HOFBL teams that own such players have until 12/31 to extend or make a QO. 2024-12-09, 14:45:57

Giants GM (Zach): Yeah probably won't know who actually is a FA until January. 2024-12-09, 15:16:38

Guardians GM (Nate): Players on expiring contracts were dropped in Fantrax but they can be offered a team extension (1 per team at a time) or tagged with a QO.    2024-12-09, 16:08:56

Rays GM (Norm): No. There has been and will be no new signings until Free Agency bidding starts in February. Check the schedule here: https://hofbl.com/index.php?topic=1601.0 2024-12-09, 19:58:17

Rays GM (Norm): What you may be seeing is that players who were signed last spring/summer but not originally available on Fantrax are now available. So we are completing the process of adding them to the Fantrax rosters. 2024-12-09, 20:23:43

PadresGM (Gene): Correct me of need be, but to clarify, the players seen being added are minor leaguers/2024 MLB Amat Draft picks taken by hofbl teams earlier in 2024 and not MLB level players. 2024-12-09, 22:29:33

Guardians GM (Nate): That's correct.  We are just adding players previously drafted or signed in IFA that have become available in Fantrax now.  2024-12-10, 00:25:52

Tigers GM (Drew): Haven't been on the message board for a bit, so sorry if I missed this.  Are all the ARB and preARB salaries updates on our rosters?  I want to make sure I have current info as I start making roster decisions before 12/31 deadline 2024-12-12, 11:12:26

Guardians GM (Nate): Yes, ARB and PreArb salaries should be updated and current now. 2024-12-12, 21:11:12

After some reconsideration, we will allow 1 contract extension per offseason on an expiring contract.   Previously it was set as 1 extension on your roster at a time but after rethinking this, I feel it best to change this to 1 per offseason. 

I wanted to announce this now in the event this change will alert plans for any teams roster decisions. 

Let me know if you have any questions.

Owners have already made significant trades based on the old rule. For example, I traded Bregman and Tucker both I could have kept under this new rule. I traded them with the idea of only being able to keep Yordan when his contract is up. This significantly changes how the league operates.
