    Unofficial vote for roster expansion

    Seems everyone is split, so to get a better idea and see if any of this is worthy of heading to the commish and to real voting, are you interested in:

    1) Expanding the minor league roster

    2) Expanding the major league bench

    3) Expanding the DL

    4) No changes

    Vote on one option or three or whatever.

    Voting only on my behalf, not for my co-owner, by the way.

    I was just studying the constitution...

    Chapter XVIII
    New rules may be decided unilaterally for the good of the league by the commissioner(s), or by a 55% vote of the league’s owners (not 55% of the owners voting).

    So if option 1 in your poll gathers 11 votes out of 20 in an official poll, we can implement it.

    Well it's an unofficial poll. Typically in the past the commish will tackle 1 at a time with an official count and then act accordingly. There are alot of ideas in the other thread and it's tough to gauge the league opinion. So I'm hoping this will give us all an idea of what the league wants and then we move forward or not.

    Well that's what I said, 11 out of 20 in an official poll. I really hope we'll get there and approve the extra minor leaguer(s)

    I'm clarifying because I don't want you to think if anything in this poll gets 11 votes in favor anything will be changed. It won't. It'll be up to the commissioner to do his thing at that point.

    Yeah, good luck with that. I should have re-read the constitution last year!
