Say Hansen breaks in with the Major League team. You then have to place him on your Major League Roster. If you choose not to or don't want to clear up a space for him by waiving someone else, then he goes to the waiver wire.

Since we are not drafting from each other's minor leagues, then we don't have to have the 20 Man Squad until after the minor league draft is done.
We are holding the draft form the other 18 teams not in the league. Then we will dwindle the keeper list to 20 and the rest will be part of the franchise system.

I have thought of this scenario a few times. I haven't came to any conclusion yet.
The obvious answer is if he was on the major league roster and then sent down, then you could put him on the minor league protected list. But if he comes back up, you would have to open a spot for him once again. Or you can simply just leave him on your major league roster once he makes the jump to the team.
Something to think about.
For now, I think we'll leave it like it is. We can alwasy talk about this later. But having a 20 man minor league keeper roster, that should be enough for the up and coming stars to be protected.

Ok...................here it is.
1. Each team will be in charge of their own franchise minor league system.
2. Each team will designate a "20 Man Taxi Squad". Basically, each team will select 20 guys in their franchise's minor league system as their keepers. (Basically, you are in charge of your minor league system. The "Taxi Squad" is a protected list of guys. I.E. if someone is traded in real life and that player is on your list, you would still have his rights, but if not then you would lose his rights to whatever team he was traded to) 2a. You do not have to protect players that were drafted in the prior June MLB draft.
3. Any player not on the 20 Man Taxi Squad is subject to be picked by another team; if you choose not to let that player go, then you must allocate him to your Taxi Squad. You may have to open up a spot for him to be released. (note: there will be a deadline ala the trade deadline for putting a claim on another team's un-protected minor league players) 3a. If After a player is released from the Taxi Squad to protect another player, that released player cannot be placed back onto the Taxi Squad for a minimum of 10 days. Once 15 days has expired, then the player may be put back onto the Squad - into an open spot or by releasing another player from it. 3b. Once a player is put onto the Taxi Squad (i.e. to be protected from another team claiming him), he must stay on the Taxi Squad for a minimum of 5 days. 3c. If a player is claimed by another team (not protected by original team), then the new owner must put that person on his "Taxi Squad". If at some point during the season, in which he was claimed, the player claimed - is dropped from the team's Taxi Squad, then the player will return to the original team. And that team that released him may not put another claim on that player for that current year.
4. If a player that is not on your 20 Man Taxi Squad - is traded, then you lose the rights to that player to the team obtaining him in the real-life trade. (this is to eliminate the headache of keeping track of every little trade that goes on; as I don't have time for it)
5. We will have a 6 round minor league draft of the remaining 18 teams not chosen in this league. There will then be a 1 round draft for each following year, with the draft order being in reverse order of the team standing from the previous year. 5a. On the drafting of other teams' minor league players. You may not draft a player that was "drafted" in the previous June MLB draft.

How about this....let's say I want a player from the Tribe that isn't protected, say Tony Sipp. Since Sipp belongs in the Tribe's org, I'll go to Winker asking for the rights to Sipp. Winker then has a choice to drop 1 of his protected players & protect Sipp or give up his rights to Sipp. Just a thought. This idea may work, but say Winker has a ton of talent to protect and then in the upcoming draft the Tribe selects someone like Justin Upton or Ryan Zimmerman with their no. 1 pick. Then say someone comes along and wants to acquire him. That would be tough having to either give up his rights or protect someone so unproven yet, but with a high ceiling. Aint this just fun

Actually TFAZ, we didn't start discussing the minor league draft until easily after you had picked a team. Which was in the middle of the pack. If I do remember right, we had a discussion on whether or not we were going to do a minor league draft about when we were trying to fill out the last few spots in the league. Which by then, most teams had already chosen their teams.
