Here's a list of issues brought up during last season that we should think about voting on. If you have anymore to add, please post them here.
-Every year we decide whether or not to raise our salary cap. This year is was $150 mil. It has also been suggested we decide on annual raises beforehand, rather than decide year to year.
-Should we have shorter draft pick windows? Currently each team has 8, 6, or 4 hours per pick, depending on the round.
-Should we have a rolling waiver order that doesn't reset year-to-year?
-Should we set out clearly defined MiLB draft eligibility rules for international players who are unsigned at the time of our MiLB draft?
Comments? Arguments? Anything else?

I feel like this season went pretty smoothly (except for how shitty my team was, of course.) I don't think there's a ton of stuff that needs major reconsideration. Kudos to Matt and Mack for running this show and to all of us who voted on polls last offseason.
I think the $150M cap is good for another year, keep the draft pick windows the same, keep all the waiver rules the same (especially the Eastern time zone thing), and I think we should set a definite date by which a player should be signed to be eligible for our draft. (My vote would be that it must be reported that pen has been put to paper by 24 hours before our MiLB Draft begins.)

1st 2 rounds: Live Draft. We've talked about it for years. We need to make this happen.

Going to post polls soon, speak up if there's anything else you want on the ballot.

Wasn't there something about increasing MiLB keepers by 1?

Wasn't there something about increasing MiLB keepers by 1? We voted last year to raise the number of MilB keepers by 2, starting this year. So you're keeping 10 minor leaguers on January 1st.

Ah…right, okay. I knew there was something (didn't remember voting already). Thanks, Matt.

Any chance we could discuss/vote on raising the number of MLB keepers either this year or next year? We currently keep 12, and I'd like to propose that number goes up to 14. With 21 starting positions on a daily basis, it would be nice to be able to keep 2/3 of our players if we so desire. I could actually see this working both ways: someone with a good team gets to try and keep a good (albeit more expensive) team together, and someone with a poor team gets to take a chance on keeping some of their younger, promising players who might not otherwise make the cut.

Awesome job proposing this after the polls got posted:) New Poll!

I know, right? My life has been in such flux lately that I'm having trouble keeping up with the league.
