Free Agent Season

[Former Rockies GM (Peter)]

The 2007 Off-season FA bidding will begin January 22. Our schedule will be as follows:

Week #1 ....... Jan 22 - 26
Week #2 ....... Jan 29 - Feb 3
Week #3 ....... Feb 4 - 8
etc.

Bids will be accepted from Monday 6AM PST until Thursday 12 noon PST. NO bids after the deadline will be opened and considered. All bids will be posted in the player thread no later than Saturday 12 noon PST. This will provide the Commish an opportunity to monitor team roster pages and salary levels prior to the next round of bidding.

Process:

1. Each GM can post a player upto 2 players for each week's bidding, limiting each week's pool to 20 30 players...no restrictions for positions or player names, as long as they are Unrestricted Free Agents. Once a player's name is posted, no additional posts of intent are required by the GM making the original post- that player is open to bidding from any GM. If a player is posted, the GM posting said player's name must bid on that player for at least the league minimum.

2. Monday 6AM PST until Wednesday 12 noon PST - Player names are eligible to be posted.

3. Monday 6AM PST until Thursday 12 noon PST - Bids for posted players may be submitted

4. Bidding rules are described in the League Rules and bids must conform to the guidelines spelled out in the rules.

5. Any GM intending to bid on a player other than the one he posted, must also post an "intent to bid" (This does not commit the GM to actually submitting a bid.).

6. bids must be submitted to [e-mail]

7. Bids must supply the following information: team name, name of player, AAS, annual payment schedule and, if appropriate/necessary , a priority ranking for the bid.

8. Rosters must be updated prior to the start of the next bidding period.
