PB Value Limitation: Starting after the Rookie Draft in the spring of 1999, Traditional perpetual teams will be limited by PB value (20-team leagues limit= 120.0, 24-team leagues limit= 115.0) after cutting to 27 players subsequent to the Rookie Draft. This limit will only be enforced at the time teams are required to cut to 27. After that point, the limit may be exceeded. There are not PB limits in REAL TIME leagues.

The limitations will affect roughly 3-5% of perpetual teams every spring.

NOTE: MLB teams can't afford to spend more than a certain level before having to trade higher paid players for lower paid and generally younger players. The PB Value limitations will mimic that situation in our PB Traditional Leagues. The Limits will increase parity and make some pennant races more interesting. We understand that certain successful managers will be coerced into trading away talent to meet the limitations, and regret any inconvenience or pain.
