$140M question: Sorry if this has been answered but i just went through every page and didn't see it... If someone nominates Player A, and I draft someone who was a teammate with Player A, who happens to be named Player B, can I use any season of Player B or do I have to use a Player B season in which he was on the same roster as Player A? If they were only teammates from 1930-1934, can I use Player B's 1940 season?

......

That’s answered directly in the rules on page 1 isn’t it?

It is. Actual teammate seasons only no twists.

$130M: The Storm
You must draft 8 hitters with greater than 500 PA/162 who all hit more HRs than your player with the highest amount on your 130M Round 1 team.

Similarly, all of your pitchers must have a higher HR/9 than the highest HR/9 on your Round 1 team.

Other Specifics
Seasons: 1920-2018
DH: No
WW: No
AAA: No
Trades: No
Clones: No
Injuries: Turned On
Multi-team players: No restrictions (i.e., you can use partial or combined)
Ballpark: Any, but you must use the same ballpark you used in Round 1
300K Exception: No
Team Name: No restrictions
Division Alignment: Random

Just confirming that we are looking at actual HR and not what shows up in the statistics page (projected per 162).

My top guy was '41 Pete Reiser, who had 14 actual homers. In the stats page for my R1 team, it shows as 15.

As I read these rules, my minimum should be 15 HR for my 8 hitters (as opposed to 16). Is that right?

Second question: Are 2019 players eligible? Wondering if the 2018 is just left over from R1 ...

Sorry, I looked but just didn't see it

For the 180M league, does the ballpark mean that it has to be used by one of the franchises in x, or does it have to be from the season that one of your 25 players is from?

The rules state that it has to be a park that 1 of your teams used. There's no language that makes it season/player specific. But... Who knows???

Here's the language from the theme in Season 1. Ozo can confirm, but I would assume it's the same:

Ballpark: Use a park the one of your franchises played in during one of the seasons you select

But this is what it says in round 2.

Ballpark: Use a park one of your teams used

Personally, I interpret rules as they are written and don't assume things that aren't in the language--- but my opinion means nothing

I'm happy with whatever the rule is - but since we're disagreeing better to get a ruling now. I don't suspect it will make a big difference to anyone.

Sorry, this was a typo. The rule is the same as round 1

From the Round 1 Q&A:

Q: Are the HR numbers based on real life stats or per 162 game stats?
A: Real life stats.

Your minimum is 15.

2019 players are eligible

For the 140M draft, are we only allowed to use teammates from seasons when the nominated players are WIS-eligible?

For example, someone nominated Troy Tulowitzki, who had the required 5 WIS-eligible seasons but only had 11 AB in 2019. So, can someone draft a player off the 2019 Yankees as a Tulo teammate?

I believe this has been answered in the draft thread.

On the teammate draft theme, can you use a teammate from a season the nominated player played but isn't SIM eligible?

I assume that's a joke, since the post directly above addresses that same question.
