Section Three
​1) Teams must select 26 keepers prior to predetermined league deadline.
​2) Each Spring a Prospect/Rookie draft will be held. Draft picks for the spring draft will be allocated based on open Prospect/Rookie roster slots 1-5, up to five picks are possible. The draft order will be based on the final regular season standings, with the World Series Winner picking last. The draft format will be a straight draft with the 1st pick, you pick 1st every round, 2nd you pick 2nd every round 3rd you pick 3rd every round and so on.
3) Prospects/Rookies/International players are defined as any player who have not reached 130 at bats or 50 innings pitched. High School and college players are ineligible to be drafted. Players must be signed to a major/minor league contract, held by an MLB team.
​4) Prior to the spring draft player(s) who have not reached rookie minimums, 130 at bats or 50 innings pitched, cannot be place on a team’s Homegrown Major League roster. In addition, any player on a Homegrown Major League roster who has not reached rookie minimums must be placed back onto a team’s Homegrown prospect roster slots 1-5 or be dropped back into the player pool or traded to another team.
Exception#1 if a player is marked IL eligible, he may stay on a Homegrown Major League roster, but must be placed on the IL once the offline draft is complete. Note that player(s) will count towards the 26-man keeper selections. Exception #2 any new owner who joins the league during or after the spring draft he will be granted an exemption to this rule. Furthermore, the commissioner or assistant commissioner may allow any new owner to make changes to his prospect roster. Which may result in the new owner acquiring draft pick(s) for the spring and or the mid season draft(s). This does not include adding any prospects/rookies from the player pool.
5) International Players must be signed by an MLB Team. A player who has signed prior to the spring draft or supplemental draft is eligible to be drafted. Players who have not signed prior to the spring or supplemental draft are ineligible to be drafted.
6) Prospect/Rookies can only be moved from S1 and S2 to primary prospect/rookie rosters (1-5) prior to the spring draft. To have draft picks for the mid-season draft Teams need to have open slots prior to the spring draft. Teams that promote (call up), drop, or trade players from their supplemental roster slots during or after the spring draft will not receive a draft pick for that slot.
7) At the conclusion of the spring draft, free agency will begin with the customary one (1) day wavier period.
8) The initial wavier order will be the previous seasons final regular season standings, with the worst winning percentage picking first and so on, and the World Series Winner picking last. This will be the initial setting after which teams will move to last after any claim, and the order will never reset.
​
Section Four
1) A mid-season prospect/rookie draft will be held every season. The mid-season draft normally takes place during the week of the MLB All Star game. Draft picks will be allocated based on open Prospect/Rookie roster slots, S1 and S2, up to two picks are possible.
​2) The two (2) mid-season prospect/rookie roster spots will be designated S1 and S2. The S1 and S2 roster slots can only be filled during the mid-season prospect/rookie draft. They cannot be filled during the spring prospect/rookie draft or at any time during the regular season.
​3) The mid-season prospect/rookie draft order will be determined by the lowest winning percentage at the time of the MLB all-star break. The team with the lowest winning percentage will draft first and so on.
​
Section Five
​1) Prospect/rookies will remain on a team’s Homegrown prospect roster when called up to a Homegrown Major League roster. Teams will retain rights to that prospect/rookie as long as that player(s) remain on the Homegrown prospect roster. Teams will have the option of streaming prospect/rookies between Homegrown Major League rosters and Homegrown prospect rosters at any time during Homegrown's regular season and playoffs. Please note once a prospect/rookie reaches MLB minimums he cannot be sent back down. Owners are asked to post on the league message board using the prospect/rookie call up thread. This is to avoid any confusion that might arise and allow for complete transparency. A prospect/rookie is considered to be out of options when he reaches rookie minimums and must be placed on a team’s Homegrown Major league roster be traded or dropped (a player that is dropped will be added to the league administration team). Prospect/rookies who are traded and have not reached prospect/rookie minimums are eligible to be placed on a team’s Homegrown prospect roster. Teams who drop a prospect/rookie who has reached rookie minimums will lose rights to that player.
​2) Free agent prospects/rookies cannot be added to Homegrown prospect rosters or Homegrown Major League roster. Homegrown prospect rosters can only be added via prospect/rookie draft or trade.
​3) Players who have not reached prospect/rookie minimums, excluding players on prospect rosters. will be placed on the "League administrative team" When these players reach rookie minimums 130 at bats or 50 innings pitched, they will be dropped into the player pool and go thru the one-day wavier process. If player(s) clear waivers, then they will become free agent(s) This dropping of players usually occurs on Sunday's.
