Players to be Named Later
WhatIfSports.com removed the names of all union players from its new simulations due to licensing issues with MLBAM. Thanks to Brian Harper for the link.
Do you know the specific reason for MLB (presumably) handing down a C&D to this site? Is this relevant to the lawsuit regarding the use of names and stats for Fantasy Baseball? Do you know if this suit is still pending, or whatever result has been handed down?
No, I have no other details. There might not even be a lawsuit here, the company might just not want to pay the fee.
So how many active non-union players are there? I know about Brendan Donnelly... who else?
