'16 Rosters/twist Full! Topic

Dusting off an old favorite. that was pretty popular

Hope springs eternal in the spring. What if a team got the best season of every player on its roster? Would it win it all?

Select a team and choose your seasons from the team's spring roster, including non-roster invitees. Twist to any season of their career. Onlly one team per owner. I will choose 10th.

The specifics:

20 team standard league
Twist-yes
Clones-no
DH-no
AAA-6/2 average (some teams may need it)
WW-N0
Trades-No
Injuries-no
Live-OK, but not required
Cap-$90M
Ballpark-selected team's park
Alignment-as close to RL as possible

The interesting thing about signing up now is that unsigned FAs, Lincecum, Morneau, Sizemore, etc, could really help your team.

I'll play.  Need some time to look at teams, but count me in.

Take the PHILLIES off the board!
Gonna draft my team before NE/DEN game!

EDIT: Ok, best squad drafted so far...and yeah I know it's the Phillies...
5300 pa's

Team is not going to be good. A lot of sp shuffling after my top 2 and a gaping hole in LF
But hey, this is the new Philly reality. Pick a sport in the top 4 and they all are challenged....

Maybe they pick up someone else hurt who's had a useful past.. (ie my #1 and #2 starters)

Oh what the heck give me my Mariners and we'll see if the remnants of the Jack Z era have anything of useful value!
1/24/2016 2:08 PM
I'll try the new-look Az Diamondbacks
1/24/2016 4:07 PM
That's a pretty low cap

1/24/2016 4:13 PM
Yeah, had to keep it low to keep it competitive.

I'll join and Take the NY Mets. Can I use Cespedes even though he is not currently showing up on Mets MLB depth chart, but has been inked to a three year deal?? If there are other players like this for any team? Can they be used and twisted or do they actually have to appear on the depth chart or 40-man roster to be eligible?

Welcome aboard.  I imagine by the time the league fills, Cespedes' situation will be resolved.
1/25/2016 3:13 PM
I'll take the Jays.  There will be lots of bat flips in 2016!

Bucs please - raise the Jolly Roger!
1/27/2016 9:46 AM
Cardinals
1/27/2016 2:57 PM
Nationals
1/27/2016 4:44 PM
I'll take the Giants. Are we using the 40 man roster readily available on ESPN, mlb.com, CBS Sports, etc.. or is there some other resource that shows non roster invitees, etc..?

With apologies I need to bail.  Work just got crazy and that's going to persist for a bit, so I just don't have the time at the moment.  But it looks like interest is strong and you guys will fill quickly without me, so the loss is mine.
