Tournament Rules:

  1. All games are played h2h online
  2. All games will use "As Played" lineups, unless there is an upset and there is a different opponent or the series goes longer than the RL series.
  3. All teams must use a 25 man roster based on the MLB official roster for that round.  If a team advances past a round where they played in RL that roster is up to the manager's discretion, but can only use players who were active on the final day of the reg season..
  4. Only players who were post season eligible are allowed to play in the playoffs.
  5. Players who were traded away during the season, or not playoff eligible are not eligible for post season action

  11. Starting fielders can not be removed/PH for until the 6th inning.
  12. Injuries
    1. If a multi-game injury occurs you have the option to replace the player.  This will be a permanent replacement for the balance of the playoffs and the player being replaced can not return in subsequent rounds.
    2. If a player who is scheduled to be in the starting lineup is considered injured by the game, you have the right to override that injury, so he can play.  If he is not in the starting lineup this option is not available.
