Here’s the latest update to the Minor League keepers. Red means you have to either make them a Major League keeper by February 1 or let them go.
Below are the Minor League Keeper rules:
- At the start of each new season any players no longer eligible will be taken off teams (unless made full Keepers) and each May a new draft will be used to fill any open slots.
- A second evaluation will be made on June 14th (Week 11). All players who have lost eligibility will be taken off the mLeague rosters if not promoted by July 13th, the All Star Game (Week 15).
- No one will be able to add minor leaguer keepers until after the May draft.
- Draft order is random and the draft will continue until all spots are filled.
- Any player is eligible provided he is not currently on a major league roster and has not qualified as a ML rookie in the past. MLB defines rookies as anyone who has spent 45 days on a ML roster, had 130 ABs, or pitched 50 innings.
- Any eligible player called up to the majors after 8/31 will not lose his eligibility based on September numbers and will not be removed from mLeague rosters at the end of the season.
- Japanese players or professionals with no MLB experience are eligible.
- You may promote eligible minor league keepers to the main roster. You may not demote eligible minor league keepers until after the May draft.
- Anyone drafted in the main draft and kept until the draft may be demoted in place of a pick provided he's eligible. Free agent pickups must clear waivers.
- Any owner is free to add any eligible player through free agency after the draft. If a player is dropped he goes on waivers for 24 hours and the owner with the highest priority who puts in a claim gets him. If no one puts in a claim he is a free agent.
- All mLeague Keepers will be available only to the owners who have kept them. If someone else picks them up the commish will correct that.
- If a mLeague Keeper makes the major league roster the owner is not required to promote him to the major league roster until the evaluation process forces the “move or drop” scenario.
- A Keeper is free to be dropped and replaced with another player any time during the season, provided the player is eligible.
- A Keeper is free to be traded in any deal provided all roster limits are adhered to.
- mLeague Keepers are frozen during the offseason and no additions may be made between the end of the season and the mLeague Draft. Trades are allowed.
- If a player is drafted in the main draft and kept on the major league roster until the mL draft he may be demoted once the rosters unlock, provided he qualifies. This demotion must be made in place of one of the owner's scheduled picks. If all picks are made he loses this eligibility and must clear waivers to be demoted.
- If an owner wishes to demote a player added to the major league roster as a free agent he must put him through waivers on the major league roster. Any successful waiver claim may be used to put player on Minor League Keeper roster or major league roster. If player clears waivers owner may demote him.
- If a minor league keeper is called up to MLB and then demoted back down, the fantasy owner may also demote him provided that he meets all mLeague Keeper qualifications. No waivers necessary.
Red are off-season kill or callup.
NOTE: Dev's Chris Carter is with the Oakland A's. Lucky had run stats on the Mets' Chris Carter, who is ineligible. The A's Chris Carter was called up in September, but is still eligible.
