Equal Opportunity League II.V   21/24 in
 League # mlb91733

 
 
I was doing some yardwork yesterday when I stubbed my toe on a metal box. One corner of the box was barely sticking out of the ground so I unearthed the rest of it. It was manuscripts by my boy Al Einstein from back in the day! Explaining space-time continuum and the pre-cursor to the super-string theory.
Anyhow, I've figued out how to manipulate the six dimensions that comprise our existence. I roamed back to nineteen twenty one and kid-napped Babe Ruth, then traveled to nineteen thirty five. In nineteen thirty five I poisoned the fat old Babe Ruth. Then the vibrant, sixty homer hitting Ruth, stepped into the Boston Braves line-up and led them to the World Series title!



I'm willing to share my knowledge of time travel with twenty three other competent owners. This league will be an all-time franchise league where you can use any season of any player who played in at least one game for your team. You can use any season of that player, regardless if the season you choose to use was with your franchise or not. All seasons of your franchise from eighteen eighty five to two thousand and ten (you can use Rafael Soriano for the Rays since he signed there this off-season) are available.
Willie Mays stumbling in the outfield for the Mets will now be electric Willie Mays chasing down fly-balls for the Mets. Knock-knee'd and useless Brewer Hank Aaron, now becomes the greatest all around player in the history of the game representing the Brewers- Hank Aaron. You get the picture.
One other thing- through my complicated, space/time travel discovery, we can also venture into the future! All franchises whose existence isn't as storied as the old school teams with turn of the century studs (Yanks,BoSox,Pirates,Cards,Tigers,etc.), get to travel forward in time and use the studs of tommorrow(i.e. a six/four set of aboveaverage AAA).*Next to team name below means AAA eligible....

 
Rules

1.) Pick a franchise. You get any player who appeared in at least one game on that team in the history of the team. But you can use any season for that player, regardless of whether they played for your team or not (http://www.baseball-reference.com/), any year of that player that you like. No clones.
2.) You must use a stadium from your franchise.
3.) You get $120 Mil to make your team, not the standard 80 mil.
4.) AAA allowed(6/4 above average you pick the AAA), eligible teams will be listed. WW yes (under same guidelines as drafting however); No DH; No Clones; Trades yes; H2H unlimited. Divisions aligned as close to actual divisions as possible.
5.) 60 Games live to qualify for playoffs.
6.) Must use current team name.
*200k players can be anyone to help ease roster creation. They must however not play in any game if they are not team linked. Subject to forfeitures.

Will have the team list of teams that got AAA tonight. Looking to give AAA to some of the old teams that don't ever compete and take them away from young teams that don't need them. i.e. give pirates aaa and not the Mets. Just go back and see how to even it out.

If I recall, in the last EOL the AAA was manual draft.   Will that be the case this time too?    Thx.

I'll take twisted Pedro, Maddawg and the Dodgers ... Agree with Sparkeroo ... 6/2 manual draft for franchises started past 1960 (e.g. Mets, Astros, Blue Jays, Expos, Rangers, Brewers, Mariners, etc) ... May pair up together 2 of last four expansion teams (Marlins, Rays, Rockies, D-backs) ...

Last season it was 6/4 for AAA, not 6/2.  Is it going to be the same again?
