I run a fantasy baseball league and a manager quit after the draft. can i change the team name of the quitter?

also, i know i can edit their roster and i locked the team. if i change the league name and password, can that quitter still view the league?

I would just talk to the rest of your league and let them know what you're planning, otherwise the rest of your teams will quit too. Tell the other managers that you'll either:


1. Disperse the players (which will be pretty difficult)


2. Re-draft (but that'll be REALLY diffcult)


3. Just let the best players on the team play. Check it every week or other week and you can only make an adjustment if there is an injury or a bench player is significantly better. Also, to not make the managers upset, let them know that if you plan to make a change, it can come into effect 2 weeks after you want to do it (unless injury occurs)
Reply:No, but locking the manager's roster will just render the manager unable to come back to his team if he wanted to. Plus, make sure your league's members agree on you editing the guy's roster. And as long as the quitter doesn't know the password, they can not view the league. But this seems like a lot of trouble to go through for one person. Make sure your league members know the new password, and why would you want to change the team's name? If it was obscene, you should have removed it before the draft. If it wasn't, then what's the problem?
Reply:What you should do is take all of the quitter's players and divide them among the others in the league. You get the best one, the 1st round draft pick by him. Awesome! Mike Awesome! RIP Cory Lidle. Kudos to my wifey Jilly.
