Round 1 Themes, 2017 Topic

I'm having a problem finding a catcher besides Ted Simmons who qualifies for the 140 million doubles (400, less than 150 triples and 300 homers). Baseball-reference keeps kicking me off. Can I get some help out there? Also, I couldn't find out if Raines qualifies.
Thanks

Those are team roster totals, not player career totals.

Can we use 2017 as a season for the $100M twist league? (ie: 2008-2017 stretch, twisting players from a 2017 roster)
No, since there may be trades during the team building process and I don't want people building their teams based on different data.

Correct. Those totals are for your team.

What do you mean?
6/7/2017 2:44 PM
I meant letter. Are I, O, Q, U, X, Y, Z (consider unique)

Yes, if you choose alphabet soup then each player on your team must have a last name that begins with a different letter.

For the $90M Clones theme, if we chose a team that doesn't have 25 WIS eligible players, do we need to fill out the rest of the roster with clones in order to use it since there is no 300K exception?

Yes. Otherwise you would not be able to use that team.

In Alphabet Soup, does a name like Andy Van Slyke count as a V or S?
6/8/2017 10:11 AM
Van Slyke = "V". Andy is his first name.

Every case is different though. Byung-Hung Kim = "K"

It's based on what his last name is in the search engine.

I actually put together a team using your example of 2006-15 Dodgers for the 100 million theme. I only twisted 06 and 12 but most of my players are from Dodger teams in the years 07-15 (except 12). Could I technically have a team with NO twisted players (instructions are "up to 3 years")? Or am I missing something in the instructions (based on my history, probably the case...sorry schwarze...you've put up with some pretty idiotic plays on my part). I hope you're not asking us to choose 3 years from the 10 and ALL players are twisted from those three years.
