 REMINDER: You must reduce your roster 
 to 50 players or less (combined rated 
 and unrated players) by the trading   
 deadline. Your roster may never exceed
 60 total players during the trading   
 season. You must release enough       
 players prior to making a trade that  
 would cause your team to exceed the   
 limit. If your roster exceeds these   
 limits then enough unrated players    
 will automatically be released,       
 alphabetically, to reduce your roster 
 to the 50 or 60 player limit.

 PLAYER SHORTAGES:                     
                                       
 If any manager is short some GP's or  
 AB's at a position in order to stay   
 within the IRBL player season         
 limitations and you are unable to     
 complete a trade to fill those needs, 
 let me know before the trading        
 deadline and I will work out a trade  
 for you to fill that need.

 TRADING POST:                         
                                       
 I recommend that you submit your      
 team's wants and offerings to be      
 listed on the IRBL Trading Post to    
 make it easy for all managers to see  
 what everyone is offering or need.

 The newsletter (LRD) after the trading
 deadline will contain guidelines and  
 forms to fill out for your team season
 instructions.
