How do you add players to the NA category? Do we need to wait for MLB rosters to get set first?
Thanks
You can add them just as you would any other player. The post-draft player pool follows the usual rules for players put on waivers - so claims will not be processed until the 19th, but you can place claims now.
The NA spots:

They are for guys that are in The Minors and not on an MLB roster? Or what exactly are they for?

Anyone that’s designated ‘NA’ on Yahoo - minor leaguers, suspended players, unsigned players.

Gotcha.

How were some able to add them already to their roster and not have to wait for waiver process to complete?

We drafted them as NA then moved them there

Why am I blocked in Leauge chat? Betts lost 15lbs and out for Tokyo. He was skinny to begin with.

I didn’t change anything. Only possibility I can imagine is someone reported you in one of the public leagues. If so, that might block you from all chat channels.

Are you able to see chat on the mobile app?

It’s a glitch in the mobile app. I get the same thing… saying your message is deleted right after you post. They are visible to everyone else.

“Betts lost 15lbs while sick. Will miss Tokyo series. Is he 150 now?”

You posted that in the league chat at 7:02 PM

…and right after that he probably received an error message that said “your message has been deleted”. Happened to me for several days including draft day, and on numerous occasions last year. Your message doesn’t appear in chat to YOU, but everyone else sees it. No idea why, or why the [fork] Yahoo hasn’t fixed it yet.

I planned on more pitching also, but wanted to shift it to rounds 4-9. Hoped for both Sasaki & Yamamoto… also Logan Webb, but you snagged him one pick before me.

Funny… I think the only real “homer” picks were of former Cardinals. Goldschmidt, Arozarena, Flaherty & Alcantara all went earlier than I would have expected.

The only pick I’m not thrilled about is Pressly in the 12th round. Wanted Fairbanks there, thought he was gone when he wasn’t, and pivoted.
I planned to go hitter heavy and ended up with 6 pitchers in the first 9 rounds.
Two relievers in 8 rounds.

How does FP have you 3rd? Are they foreseeing another Crochet/Houck/Lopez waiver lottery?
