Last call for a replacement owner. Circle will discuss
contraction soon if an owner is not found.

Issue to be voted on:
1. The Circle has discussed 3 issues and needs your vote on one.
2. Suggestions promoted by Robb and tico failed in committee.
3. Please vote on this issue:
The only times we allow a player to be DLed in September is
that documentation is provided that clearly states that the
player is shut down for the season.
Rational: We have a rule but we need to firm it up. Too often
whichever Circle member is making changes has to be subjective
which has caused anger and hard feelings.
For: Curt, Dave, 82, Chi, Boris
The Circle is discussing a fourth suggestion, but we are willing
to entertain others. During the season, ideas were presented
but were not posted at BBFL.
Question (Poll) Would you support a nominal fee to award
division winners? A booby prize $ penalty for finishing last?
We continue to look for ways to keep everyone active during the
year. Give us your opinion.

Do we vote in the topic or by email?
As for the poll question I would say it is bad idea. Taking
over one of the worst teams I would have hesitant to join if I
knew I was looking at a penalty.
I think the strike out penalty is still worthy of being
addressed. We have a situation where Jose Peraza was worth 551
points last year. He was a below average offensive player.
Baez was worth 598 points and was well above league average.
Michael Bradley was worth 620 points. Harper was 613, even
though his OPS was around 50 points higher.

I threw a suggestion in the winter meetings topic on how to keep
the teams at the bottom competing until the end of the season by
the way. :)

You can vote either way, but results are posted, so you might as
well vote here.
We've gone round and round on strikeout, but we can discuss some
more.

I vote No. I don't think we should be changing rules at
different points in the season. A DL move in September is no
different than one in May.
