Player Options and the minors
Anybody know the rules concerning sending players to/from the minor leagues? Some players are out of "options" and must be released rather than sending them to the minors. Is it possible to tell who cannot be sent down? Don't get me wrong this is a cool feature just wondering how I know if I can shuffle a guy back to AAA for awhile.
Any ideas?Tags: None -

Re: Player Options and the minors
here is the actual rule, if you can understand it ( might confuse you even more)
Options: A player who is still on the 40-man roster but not on the 25-man roster or the disabled list is on an optional assignment to the minor leagues. One of the more complicated matters in baseball, options can be simply explained. A player has three years after he is added to the 40-man roster in which he can be sent to the minors without being removed from the roster, these are option years. An option is used every year such a player is sent down unless the player remains in the minors for less than 10 days in each stint. A player "out-of-options" has exhausted his option years. There are many exceptions to this rule however. If a player has not been on the major-league roster during the season during his career, then he can have a fourth option year. Players with at least five years of major-league experience who haven't been optioned to the minors three times may be optioned to the minors and still remain on the 40-man roster, but must give their permission.Cartman: It's a man's obligation to stick his boneration in a woman's separation, this sort of penetration will increase the population of the younger generation.Comment

Re: Player Options and the minors
I thought I understood how options worked, and then I read that....“In my lifetime, we've gone from Eisenhower to George W. Bush. We've gone from John F. Kennedy to Al Gore. If this is evolution, I believe that in twelve years, we'll be voting for plants.” - Lewis BlackComment
