Alright guys. Let's discuss suspensions. As it should have been discussed more in depth years ago. Trevor Bauer has officially been suspended for 2 years, WITHOUT pay. In the past, I've had 0 remorse for teams with players that received suspensions. BUT never did any of those players have their fantasy manager on the hook for 90 million over 2 years. That's not the soul reason for this discussion, but it's a pretty big deal. To be completely clear, I never thought to look and see if players were still paid during suspensions. I blindly thought they were and I really dont have an explanation as to why I thought that.
Anyways, I feel at this time, we should allow Blake a free drop to rid himself of the mess that Trevor Bauer has caused. Also, I'd like to set some rules in place. If a player is suspended for a calender year or more, a free drop can be made. If it's less than a calender year, even if it's runs through the end of a season, no free drop can be allowed. My thought process here is, there can easily be a loophole if we said "any suspension can be a free drop" where, say a player with a 17 mil contract got a 10 day suspension and suddenly you had a random out by free dropping. That's not the purpose of what's being discussed here.
Any comments or questions are welcome. But unless anyone feels this needs to go to a vote, we are going to allow the free drop and the rules will be added immediately stating any player suspended for 365 days or more OR 162 games or more, their fantasy owner will be granted a Free Drop if they please.

Trevor Bauer is not available for add by any team. He will be available again for posting in FAB OR the FA Draft when his suspension is up.

Trevor Bauer suspension has been reduced and he has officially been reinstated. He will be eligible to be drafted in the FA draft or bid on in FAB.
