On the reverse side, to start transactions a week later
would mean that at the end of the season, by the time the
Major League games catch up, Benchwarmer lineups would be
due after the actual games that they use are already played.
To try to be fairer to owners at both ends of the season,
Benchwarmer Baseball changes the deadline day throughout
the season. The first week's deadline will be on the
Friday of the first full week of the Major League season.
Some pitching performances will already be known, but that
shouldn't have too much of an effect. The deadline will
remain on Friday for the next four weeks. Then, for weeks
6-10, the deadline will be on Thursday. For each fifth of
the season, the deadline will move one day earlier until, by
the final five weeks of the season, Monday will be used for
the deadline day.
Each season, the schedule will be posted both for all the
games and for the transaction and lineup deadlines that
occur throughout the summer. See the
Transaction Deadlines page for more details.
