1. A prospect is defined as a player who has not yet accumulated 130 AB's or 50 IP during any single season of major league baseball.
2. With the exception of players on other teams' protected 40 man minor league rosters, all other players in your franchise's minor league system are yours, even if not listed on your 40 man roster.
3. If you acquire a prospect in another real life team's minor league system, you must carry that player in one of your 40 minor league spots here. If you remove the player from your 40 man minor league roster, you lose him and he returns to his home franchise.
4. If a minor league player is on your prospect list and is traded to another team, he remains yours. If one of your franchise's prospects is not on your prospect list, however, then he is not protected from trades and will become property of his new real life team
5. If a minor league player you own makes any real life team's Opening Day roster, you must promote him to your MLB roster before 9 AM on the first Monday after Opening Day. If you do not, you lose your rights to that player and he will be declared an in-season free agent and be available to the highest bidder.
6. If a prospect you own is promoted from the minors after Opening Day, however, you have the choice of whether or not you want to promote him in here and add him to your MLB roster. The prospect remains your property regardless of whether or not you promote him. No team can pick him up.
7. Any player who has exceeded 130 AB's or 50 IP during any single season of major league baseball but is subsequently sent down by their MLB team becomes an "unprotected prospect." You may keep that player on your MLB roster if you choose. However, you cannot send the player down to your minors - even though he is now in the minors in real life - without first exposing him to waivers for one week. If he is claimed, you lose him to the claiming team, who must add the player to their MLB roster immediately and keep him there for the whole year, or else return the player to you. If the player clears waivers, however, you may then keep him and send him down to your minor league system.
