compensation for players traded to AL. Compensation picks are due by
5:00 PM EST.
03/26: Frozen rosters are due along with any contract signings by 5 PM,
EST. By Sunday, the frozen rosters will be released to all teams
along with the 5 lists of draft rounds. The rosters are available on
www.nil-baseball.com. Please cut out your team, delete all players
being dropped, and to the right of the contract label, indicate
what is the player's new contract if he was under 'b' contract the
previous season. Player under 'a' (if kept) can be ignored since
he automatically goes to 'b' and 'c' through 'g' players can be
ignored since they automatically go to next level.

03/27: Round 1 bids are due and the results are sent out. When bidding on
players, it is easiest, if the bid is put to the RIGHT of the

player in any one of the rounds, then a message stating that should
be sent to the Commissioner. Otherwise, it is assumed that the team
is having computer problems and the draft gets delayed. Also, please
let the Commissioner know if somebody is omitted from any of the lists.

04/13: Reserve lists for players on DL/minors due.
If any of the team's players went on DL or were sent to minors
between the start of the draft and the current day, the team is
allowed to replace them under the following provisions. All players
that have been called up to the majors since opening day are
eligible. If a player replaced became inactive *BEFORE* Opening Day,
then the replacement player's stats will be retroactive to Opening
Day. If the player became inactive between Opening Day and first
Saturday after Opening Day, 5 PM EST, then replacement stats will start
counting only from that Sunday's game. If he became inactive after
that, then he will be handled in the following week's transactions.
