Just thinking out loud.... but here are some ideas on the next version of this theme...

Remove restrictions on minimum number of 180+ IP and 500+ PA players.
Include more seasons (i.e., 1920+)
Allow twisting of players to years prior to the restriction for team selection
Instead of the keeper/twist selection after certain round numbers, make it based on #players drafted from your team
Determine divisions pre-draft, thus promoting "screw your division mate" draft strategy (by taking his obvious keeper)
Obviously - blacklisting teams already used
Putting a restriction on selection of team if close in years to same franchise already selected (i.e., no 95 & 96 Braves)
