will this league be on fantrax again? i think the reason we used fantrax is that most other free sites would not allow 30 teams. now that we are at 20, are more mainstream sites like yahoo under consideration?

Indians has been looking into various options. To my knowledge, no decision has been made yet.
We have numerous considerations, including playoffs (which may require a second format - does that make sense???), and waivers/guys becoming available.
Also, we are seriously considering a suggestion for handling waivers. I think that came from the Yanks. Great suggestion, and we are seriously considering it ...
More on these issues when we nail it down.

I don't think we can use yahoo because they literally have zero prospects.

is that really an issue? its not like you will be playing them in your active lineup. you can keep track of them via proboards

Actually, the slow addition of prospects was an appealing feature of Yahoo! as the prospects from the contracted franchises would become available more slowly and allow the whole process to be year long as opposed to 90% of the farm systems going in the first weeks and then a rush of claims as soon as the league opened. The biggest issue with Yahoo! is the roster size limits which happened to be the best feature of Fantrax.
If anyone knows a site that is slow to add prospects but can allow for deep rosters (I'm thinking 25-40 man rosters are ideal) let me know and I'll do some research. It's kind of hard to find these things out though when every thing is still shut down.
