Wait... no. Its MLB transactions and we have followed that for decades now. So why is just announcing ok. The MLB team has not made the move. This allows for a team to get a replacement faster then they should, which affects scoring.....
If we are changing this now, can I just drop a shitty player on my team because they announced a minor leaguer will get called up, and not take negative points for that player?
The spirit of the league was to effectuate the moves of MLB teams from contracts, to roster moves. This is not in the spirit of the MLB, they have discretion on when to make a move, and a team owner should follow the desires of their players team.
