Minor League DL Question

VolsnGiants · 06-20-2009, 02:16 PM

Couldn't find this answer through a search so I thought I would ask.

I am managing a class A team. I had an OF get hurt and I placed him on the DL but the organization has not replaced him on my roster. Then the Organization promoted two more OF's without replacing. I now only have two OF's left on the roster. 22 players overall. Any suggestions?

Suck it up! You are coaching in the minors. You deal with whatever Big Daddy leaves you with. Play some of your other players out of position to develop some skills. That might be the best you can do.

1st Baseman hit by a pitch in the last game. Down to 21 players. I would like to avoid taking over as the commish to fix my roster but what is the point of minor league DL's if you are still short players?

Think of it as a return to the past—that is, you're returning to the player limits used in the minors in the 1960s and 1970s.
