2013 Player Adds/Drops
Posted: Tue Feb 19, 2013 11:28 pm
Here are the players who will be added to, and dropped from, the DTBL roster for the 2013 season. These are not official, so there is time for you to get your two cents in if you think I've made some omissions or cut players who you would like to see remain. There is a good chance a few changes will be made because I've retained at least three players who remain unsigned: Kyle Lohse, Brian Wilson and Jose Valverde. In the case of Lohse, I find it hard to believe that he won't sign somewhere eventually, so he will probably stay. But if Wilson and Valverde don't get jobs soon, they will be replaced.
I haven't decided on a start date for the draft yet, but expect it to be somewhere around March 7. This upcoming weekend, I hope to get the web site set up with the new players and make draft picks available to be traded. So you will have until at least that time to chime in on these player changes.
