Board off Directors Meeting 8/15/20


The CDMSBL Board of Directors held their first in person meeting since March at Swift Road Park on 8/15. All of the previous meetings were held via text so it felt good to meet in person again with protocols in place.
The first order of business taken up was the reinstatement request by Jesse Carter who was suspended indefinitely by the 18 Division Commissioner June of 2019. Jesse appeared to the BOD in person and presented the BOD with a statement. The BOD decided to reinstate Jesse Carter for the 2021 season and that he would have to sit a one game suspension with any team that picks him up as a player.
The BOD next dealt with a Code of Conduct situation that occurred in the 55 Division where a player was ejected for his actions. The BOD decided that for said actions that player be suspended for 5 games for violation of the Code of Conduct rules. Because that player was dismissed by his team in the 55 Division his suspension will be served with his team in the 45 Division.
Tom Smith requested an Article 14 playoff waiver for a player in the 18 Division who only played one game in the Division due to a work commitment out of state. This request was denied by the BOD.
The next order of business was a proposal by Lex Herrlett that the 45 Division be allowed to use composite wood bats as allowed in the 33 Division. These bats are more cost effective and add no extra advantage to the players using them. This was approved unanimously by the BOD.
John Reel made a motion that the 33 Division be moved to a 30 year old and up Division and also restore the language of rule 4-2 to all the Divisions that wavered players in any Division are not allowed to pitch. This motion was defeated by a 5-2 vote.
John Reel then motioned to deny Article 14 waivers to allow two underage pitchers to pitch in the 33 Division. Approved unanimously.
Lex Herrlett made a motion that wavered players in any Division not be allowed to pitch and was also approved unanimously by the BOD.
Finally Don Wixon gave a financial report as follows: All Divisional teams have paid their entrance fees for the year. There is $1000 in the checking account, $63,767.80 in the money market which includes $3500 by the teams that have dropped out for this season as deposits.
Motion to adjourn at 12:55 pm was passed unanimously.
The next meeting is planned for an October date as an end of the season meeting.
Submitted by Robert Noto League Secretary.
