OFF THE WALL
PROTECTED LISTS
All returning owners are instructed to submit their 2026 Protected Lists, postmarked, faxed or E-mailed by Monday, February 23. If we have not received a list for your team by Sunday, March 1, we will be forced to make the appropriate roster reduction for your team!
Use ONLY an “official” lineup sheet to submit your Protected List. Submitting a list any other way (e.g., a simple email) is time consuming to process and subject to uncorrectable errors!
Enter the names of your protected players at their positions. Enter the names of your "rookie" eligibles in the MLR section. (These players do not count towards your Protected List limit.) Be sure to document all player moves to/from your Minor League roster.
We intend to have all League Protected Lists posted on the Web Site and mailed by Monday, February 3. It is not mandatory to protect the maximum. Any team that protects below the maximum will be allowed to continue drafting until they reach the PreSeason 32‑man active and 5‑man Minor League limits.​
