Makeup of a Major team
SSUSA, If I have say a 60M team and I add 5 65M+ players to it what would be my rating for my team?

Theoretically, both a 60M player and a 65 M+ player have a rating index of 6 so it shouldn't change the team rating.

What STL0 said: Your team would remain a 60-Major team based upon that roster composition since both 60-M and 65-M+ have the same Rating Index of "6" ...

What if the 65 Major Plus players carry a 2 year mandatory 60 Major Plus rating based on prior year playing in 60 Major Plus and are given the mandated rating?

Never seen a response does the 65 Major plus player still carry the 60 Major Plus rating?

My 2 cents would be that if the players are rated as 60 major Plus players, they have a 7 rating. You would only be able to have 3 players with a 7 rating on the roster and maintain 60M status. It gets difficult to work through some of these scenarios because player ratings do not necessarily follow the rating of the team that they play on. If at some point, the 60M+ players are rerated to 65M+, they then have a 6 rating and are eligible without an exception.

I agree, I was hoping to hear from SSUSA.

Lee Lee ... The key variable in this is the individual player rating experience history of the player(s) involved ... If they just happened to age up to 65's this season coming from a 60-M+ team, it's pretty simple and our previous response holds true ... But if they were already 65 and "playing down" to 60-M+, it could be a different answer ...Here's our response: Please call the Sacramento Home Office at (916) 326.5303 during normal business hours, with actual player names and team(s) involved, so they can give you a definitive answer ...
