120M theme:  Assuming "Exactly one hitter must come from a different decade (i.e., 1880's, 1890's, …, 2010's)" means each hitter must come from a different decade, correct?

110M theme: How is "franchise" defined? Are the Brooklyn Dodgers and LA Dodgers treated differently or as a package deal?

Re: 110M theme:

Two points/questions (and I know if we don't address them now, they will come up at the least opportune time):

1.) B-R.com very publicly last year stated they no longer consider the 1901-02 Baltimore club to be part of the modern Yankees franchise.  Are we following suit?
2.) I've seen this come up in at least 2 franchise leagues in the past year...so just to confirm, the modern day Indians franchise does NOT include the 19th century Cleveland Spiders (I think there is a wikipedia article that lent some confusion to this).

Whoops...I guess the latter point is moot since the theme rules exclude 19th c teams anyway...

I excluded the1901-02 Orioles from the Yankees franchise.  Thanks for the reminder.

100M theme: The park must be one of the parks your designated clone hitter played in *in a year that you put on your roster*, right? I can't use a park just because my guy played in it some other year in his career.

You are correct, must be a park your guy played in "in a year that you put on your roster".

schwarze, on the $90mm league, there are gaps in the winning percentages of the groups. Is that intentional?  Thanks.

100M - can you use two versions of the player in the same year - in other words Piazza on the '98 Dodgers and Piazza on the '98 Mets

WIS prohibits that. It's never possible.

$70m question - can we use players who can't catch AND can't move?  (e.g. D/D+)

Question about $100M theme: for a player who played on two or more teams in the same season, are all the players on any of the teams considered eligible teammates (that is, could I have a teammate from each team the player played on in that season)
