Am I missing something?
WAR Budget league, someone with a SF Giants build somehow winds up with a Negro Leagues player. Aren't those guys normally unusable in those leagues? I'm so confused. How the heck did this happen?

If you look at the transaction page you'll see that he was a Free Agent pickup.

Sheik, Negro Leagues players aren't able to be drafted in WAR Budget Leagues. That's why I'm so confused as to how he wound up in the FA market in the first place
And Jim, it's the player in the link. Oscar Charleston. Negro Leagues OF/1B back in the 1920s and 30s

I think the FA's are just kind of random - you would have to ask Guy about how that's determined for WAR Budget leagues. He was definitely
picked up as a FA though.

Re: Am I missing something?
Never said that wasn't the case, bud. That was one of the first things I checked after seeing him. What I was questioning was how he got there in the first place
Re: Am I missing something?
Shouldn’t be ANY FA’s in budget leagues, IMO. Talk about defeating the purpose…

"This is a special format with NO TRADES. The idea is to play with franchise players. In baseball only, there will be some low-quality free agents to account for injuries."
Not sure Charleston qualifies as "low quality" with his speed and OPS.

Probably because his WAR is inexplicably set to 0 for both offensive and defensive WAR (likely just a database error)
