Zips catch-all

[Guardians]

Per the updated rules for this year's zips bidding, all guys caught between teams posting/signing and any guys returning from overseas MUST be posted for bidding for 24 hours before being signed. They should be posted in this thread. That means anyone with a projection must run through here before being signed, unless they appeared in a zips team release. This thread will remain open until Opening Day. Zips budgets and tiebreaker protocols will remain in place through this period.

All of these guys were with their MLB teams in the ZiPS releases. This thread is for guys who did not receive a sim because they were signed after or changed teams to an already released team and thus, did not get a projection in the team by teams.

Where is a list of players who are currently eligible under this phase? It would be extremely helpful.

I'm not sure there is an official list. Jim has done a nice job of trying to capture guys returning to MLB from overseas, but it's hit or miss on if they get signed before Zippy runs their team. I think it was linked higher up in this thread. A lot of the guys I've seen are MiLB free agents moving from a team that hadn't been run to a team whose projection had already been released. Some of them aren't showing a projection, but since they had one last year and played AA+ they may get one before the release, especially if they're on the 40 man or show out in spring training.
