$110 Million - Two Clones & Teammates

You can clone one hitter and one pitcher as many times as you like. But all the other players on your roster must be teammates of your clones (i.e., same season, no twisting). So if your hitter clones has 4 versions and your pitcher clone has 3 versions, that's 7 different teams you can pull your 25-man roster from. You do not have to roster a teammate from every clone you use. This theme will use the post-expansion era. The DH will be in use.

Salary Cap: $110 Million
Seasons: 1961-2022
DH: Yes
Clones: Yes (limited, per rules listed above)
Ballpark: Must use a ballpark that one of your cloned players played in during that season.

Then I Cannot have just as obviously the 1958 Maris at Cleveland ... Had to ask ... And can have Pitch Gibson from Maris 1968 Season at St Louis

$110M Q&A

Q: For the 110M "Two Clones" theme, can the teammates of the two chosen clones be clones themselves? Lets say Chipper Jones is your hitter clone, can you roster several versions of Greg Maddux as long as they were teammates in the rostered years?
A: If you clone Maddux, then that counts as your pitcher clone. You cannot clone more than 1 hitter and 1 pitcher.... and those players determine what seasons the rest of your roster comes from.

Q: If a teammate was traded part way through the year (or traded for) are we limited to partial, or can we use combined season?
A: Combined seasons are allowed.

If you want to use both versions of a combined season, for instance, a player plays partial seasons with Yankees and Red Sox. Can you use his full and/or -combined season with both the Yankees and Red Sox from the same year so as to be able to play with both sets of teammates?

Without reading all the pages this has probably been asked. Do pitchers need to comply with the .247 BA?

FYI to owners - regarding the $120M theme.

Remember to avoid selecting Giants or A's players from the Players League. They will show up in a search for New York Giants and Philadelphia A's, so it's easy to miss it.
