| March 21, 2015 GS101 4 posts | Player Rating I have a player on my roster who last played as a 50 major in 2012. He sustained some injuries in a rec league that required a couple of surgeries. Now here we are in 2015 the player has turned 55 and wants to start playing again. Since he is 55 shouldn't that make him a 55 major not a 50 major? SSUSA has said that a player must return at the same level they were at when they left. The player asked, does that mean that if I had taken 15 years off and come back when I was 70 that I would still be classified as a 50 major player? He was told yes that is the case. That doesn't make sense to me for some reason. Does this mean he cannot go play on a 55 major team? If he is allowed to play on a 55 major team doesn't that make him a 50 AAA equivalent? So, is the solution for this player to be able to play at 50AAA to go and qualify on a 55 major roster? I understand the need to keep the skill level so that there is no unfair advantage and I applaud that but this does not seem right to me. Am I totally off base here? Or am I not understanding things correctly? |
