League is not well run, always has inactive teams and commish cares more about worrying if GMs will be sensitive to criticism then having a realistic competitive league. I could make a multiple page post about all of the issues in this league but the below bullet points can summarize the level of ineptitude, the rest can be seen just from viewing the rosters and transaction history in statsplus.
-The commissioner allowed a rule 5 draft to occur with several teams that were not managed and did not have the organization on auto. The issue was raised to the commissioner prior to the draft and nothing was done about it. Multiple top 100 prospects were in the rule 5 draft, the commissioner himself drafted a prospect rated #59 overall from the unmanaged team. Shortly after the team's farm system was depleted by rule 5 he filled the team.
-Multiple teams in the league barely participate except for uploading an export once every couple of weeks. The most recent World Series champion San Diego was unmanaged for over half the season and won with AI control. The commissioner did not even attempt to fill the team till the year was over and after all their draft picks went unsigned. In addition to this team, 5 other first round picks went unsigned including the #2 overall pick Kumar Rocker. Some from inactivity and some from bad management.
