       Owners, give Joe and Boris time to straighten out kinks, fix
       problems, and correct errors.  We all knew that going to another
       platform could be fraught with terror.  Fantrax seems to think
       that every pitcher is both an SP and an RP.  It's a tough one.
       The game is changing.  We have Openers now; relievers who pitch
       the first couple innings.  We have spot starters who really are
       never in the rotation.  We have guys back from TJS or other
       injuries who move to the pen for awhile.  I know Joe and Boris
       will do their best to be fair and listen to your appeals.
       Another area that might get touchy is waivers.  Keep an eye on
       your waivers.  Fantrax may charge you with a waiver for things
       we don't waivers charged for, like moving a guy off the IL to
       active.   Keep a written record of the times you think you got
       scrued and turn it into one of the guys within a few days so
       they can look at it and fix it.
       Our draft this year was different and I think the guys did a
       great job.  I especially thank the Aussie crew for doing their
       utmost to be ready to pick.  I congratulate JR on his effort to
       overcome ageism in his hiring.  I congratulate tico for
       constantly taking other people's "next on my list."
       Have a good year everybody.  And Matt, be careful who you deal
       with.

       Thanks CBJ and Boris!  And thanks CBJ for running the
       draft...definitely know that wasn't easy!

       The Brats take their first small steps towards the 2022 Smurf
       Cup and have released Jorge Alcala and signed Dylan Coleman.

       By the way, I just figured out "RA" in the Live Scoring means
       "Relief Appearance", not "Run Allowed".
       I might not have done that transaction if I'd known that, but
       then again Alcala pitching in the 7th inning doesn't make it
       seem promising that he's the closer replacement for the Twins.

       Yeah that isn’t a box score, it is for fantasy points.  It will
       have a negative sign in front of bad point values.

       How do waiver claims work now? If JR wanted to claim Pujols,
       would he just add him on Fantrax and announce it to the board
       when the claim goes through in a couple of days? Or do we still
       need to email Boris to make the claim?

       You make the claim on Fantrax and announce it when it goes
       through.
       The 2 days I believe will start from when they are waived or
       added to the roster.

       When you go to Players, the + sign should be yellow on players
       already claimed.  You can still claim him, but Fantrax will give
       him to the highest on the waiver wire.

       Players that are waivers have gold add button vs a green on
       Fantrax. To prevent adds of injured players I have but them on
       waivers for an extended period of time. They can’t be added to
       the team your team so don’t bother with a claim.  Curt told me
       this is the JR rule.
