Overusage in 2003

Owners,

Here are the 'final' results of the usage survey. Overusage penalties
for playoff teams have already been announced. Please check these over
-- if you disagree or if I gave you a waiver for something that I
didn't remember, now would be a good time to bring it up.

A reminder of the limits:
Starting players (> 3.3 PA/G): Either limited by G or PA, owners choice
Other players: limited by PA
Starting pitchers: limited by GS AND limited to 115% of actual IP
Relievers: limited by actual IP
Swing men (at least 5 GS and 5 relief appearances): actual IP

A reminder of the penalties:

Penalty points: (maximum 10 points/player)
each GS by starting pitcher: 10 points
each game by starting player: 3 points
each PA or IP: 1 point

Overusage will also be deducted from available playoff usage.

Players are forfeited from the roster if they exceed:
2 GS for starting pitchers
5 G for starting players
10 IP for pitchers
20 PA for starting players

Penalty points:
0 - 10: no penalty
11-20: max 39 roster spots next season
21-30: max 38 roster spots next season
etc.
