Any players who are on the autowaiver list shall have their autowaiver period extended until 2 days after the team starts playing again.
Cardinals are suspended until 8/7 so any Cardinals players on autowaiver lists should be extended until 8/9. Marlins are back in action today so any Marlins players should be extended through 8/6.
Dates are subject to change pending further suspensions of play.
Thanks,
Joe

Looking at it from another point of view....
The rest of the rosters that have Cardinals players, are unable to reserve them, so in fact you are giving teams that have players that should have been activated an additional player while they are on the autowaiver list, but not being activated that teams with active Cardinals players sitting on their rosters not playing don't have.
Just another way to look at this.

OnRoto has an interesting option to address the paused season of some teams.
"shutdown obviously impacts Rotisserie and Fantasy teams which are populated by (paused teams') players. To lessen the impact, we have developed an option (last question on the Line-ups and Rosters set-up page) which will force all active (paused teams') players onto the IL for as long as the suspension lasts, so that they can be replaced by their owners. The default for this option is to not use it -- the (paused teams') players would be considered active, but just not playing games. If you wish instead to allow teams to replace their (paused teams') as though they were on the IL, have your commissioner change the setting -- last question on the Line-ups and Rosters section of the Commish Set-up pages."
I'm going to post a poll about this to see if our owners would like to implement the process across our leagues.

If paused teams include the opponents of Covid-affected teams this could open a real can of worms. A couple of days ago there were 3 games postponed, affecting 6 teams so potentially as many as 180 transactions to reserve these players and another 180 to activate them. That would be very difficult for LA's. Even if only applicable to Covid-affected teams it's potentially 90 transactions each time.

I did a quick check in Banks and there are 17 STL players that would be reservable under the new rule so effect would be about 1/2 of what you've noted above if every owner reserves every reservable player.
