This is to be a 5th season of a continuing league.
choose a real life 1988 team and use their roster as your base roster*. We will then have a draft with a player pool based upon the 2010 all stars with some additional players. In addition, the two real life teams from 1988 that are not taken will also be a part of the draft pool. Also please note that upon the completion of season 4 the MVPs and CYs will be added to the draft pool (unless they would already be in it in which case the next down in the voting would be added to the draft pool).
DH is AL only.
AAA yes. in addition, real life players who you hold the rights two can compose your AAA players as well. This league uses a draft your own AAA option.
no WW.
Trades are encouraged.
Alignment as close to real life as possible but I reserve the right to move a team to a different league should it benifit the league.
*players who played for more than one real life team in 1988 will be placed in the draft pool. The teams that said players played for in 1988 hold the "draft rights" to those players. Those teams can draft players in question, trade their draft rights among themselves (if a team acquires all of the draft rights to a player they do not have to use a draft pick to acquire them), or trade the draft rights to the player in question to a third team.
For example, Gary Redus played for both the Pirates and WhiteSox in 1988. The whitesox could hypothetically draft him, trade for the other rights to him (in which case the WhiteSox would not have to draft him), or trade their rights to a third team.
please post here or sitemail me with interest.
The draft will begin no earlier than Aug 24th and the target date to start is Friday, August, 27th.
