All CP Rewards EXCEPT Winter Ball improvements have been implemented and should show up in tonight's new league file. WB improvements will follow next week. If you notice what you believe to be an error in the implementation of your awards, please PM me to let me know rather than posting in the general forum. For Fan Interest, bear in mind that trades you made during the Meetings may have altered your pre-Winter Meetings numbers.

The CP Tracker has been updated, reflecting spending on rewards. We've now moved into the 2009 CP period. Forum posts since Thursday night have been added to '09 CP totals, while articles submitted between Thursday night and the conclusion of the Winter Meetings have been added to '08 CP totals. All CP earned from here on out will be counted towards the 2009 season totals. If you had previously maxed your writing/posting CP, you may begin earning more right away.

Canton has elected to cancel 2B David Koch's training in Gap Power after scouts advised the front office that Koch has limited room to grow in that area. He will remain in Winter Ball to work on his fielding.

How big is a stadium that sits over 5 million people?

Woah! Looks like Gloucester put a bio-dome over the entire city!

[John]

Apparently Gloucester's new stadium is the state of Colorado. Fixed.
