This league will be a 100 mil cap league and using player years from 1920 through 2010 only.. We always have 200k to 1 million dollar players or such who fill out our rosters and they usually mean nothing or close to nothing. We will make them relevant. Each team will draft a player making a salary between that (but they cannot have a salary over 2.5 mil in the WIS database) (we don't want Derek Jeter's or the like or upcoming superstars -- more like Mario Mendoza's). You will pick your exclusive Mr. Irrelevant and a season. Then you will pick 12 players from the same year you draft your exclusive Mr. Irrelevant (cannot be teammates of this player in his carrer), and then you will draft 12 teammates (must use a year they were teammates of your Mr. Irrelevant.) No WW, No DH, No AAA, No Clones, Injuries are off. Stadium must be one your Mr. Irrelevant called home. Let's play ball !!!

I'll join - player and to be named later.

cool

Love it. I'll join up with the one and only Cody Ransom (specifically the 2009 version, but I checked that he doesn't have any seasons >2.5m in his career)

I'll jump in with Tom Lawless (ALL of his seasons qualify, but I'll build around his 1989 season).

What are the park limitations?

You must use a stadium Tom Lawless called home in his career. Must you a season he made 1 million dollars or less (he also cannot have a season salary over 2.5 million in the WIS database).

for clarification -- reddtrain wants to use 1989 Tom Lawless -- for the teammate portion he must use 12 guys who were teammates -- but he can use any year that player was a teammate of Tom Lawless) for the 12 players who cannot be teammates -- he must use 12 players from 1989 -- who were not teammates of his ever.

I have to pick 12 players that played with Lawless in 1989 - then I can twist them to any season they were teammates with Lawless?

Or can I pick 12 players from any season of Lawless's career, so long as they were teammates that year?

You can pick 12 players from any season of Lawless's career as long as they were teammates that year.

Are you going to allow owners to have two teams?

if it comes down to that -- yes.

bump....

I am in. I have no idea who I will take, but I am definitely going down this rabbit hole.


Edit:
'94 Rafael Belliard

Scratch that. This is too fun of a rabbit hole to settle for something as 'on the nose' as 1994 Belliard (Maddux, Big Unit, et al)

I'll go with Danny Heep. Year 1984.

Can we use seasons that for whatever reason, do not show up in the WIS database? Example: Danny Heep played in 14 games, and had 17 plate appearances in 1979 but it doesn't show in the db. That'd dictate a SP slot..
