Tdoak ran this 4-5 times many years ago, and it was a wild ride. I think it's time to try it again.....

Who is REALLY the best baseball player in history? How Bout Pitcher? We are going to find out.....

You draft 1 hitter, and clone him. Over and over. He plays every position. Including bench.

You also draft 1 pitcher. Clone him. A lot. No, really. You'll need the IP's.

Each player and pitcher are exclusive. Max Salary cap, cuz.

Clones - yep, all of them

DH - Yes

AAA, WW, Trades - Nope

Babe Ruth - Nope. He is blacklisted. He was too good and adds a lot of quality IP as well. But, anyone else is eligible.

200k - if for some crazy reason, you pick a team and cannot make 25 season out of them, then I'll assign some awful players for filler. The goal here is to use only the two guys you drafted.

Yep, there will be 100's of errors. A crap ton of passed balls. Sb's and HR's galore. It gets crazy.. Lets see who can pick the best tandem, and make it work.

The first round will be when you sign up. You can pick a player or pitcher. The 2nd round with be in reverse order of the first, and you pick your other roster need.

Pick whatever stadium you want. Coors hurts. Petco doesn't help as much as you want it too....

I'd like to get to 24 teams. The playoffs are better, and it's cover 48 of the best players ever that way.

Last I checked, not too long ago, it still worked. Right-click on the green selecting dot and copy shortcut to the http bar; change the position number to correspond to the position in which you want to draft the player (1=C, 2=1B, etc.), and hit enter.

That doesn't work with all browsers. Try this as an alternative:

1) Draft the player you want in any other roster spot. When you do so, you will return to the draft center.
2) Copy your web page address.
3) Delete the player you just drafted.
4) Paste the address you just copied in step 2 into your browser, but do not type [enter]. The web adress you just copied and pasted will end in something like this spot=4&playerid=1234567. The last seven digits are associated with a particulat player; the number after "spot=" corresponds to a roster spot.
5) Edit the web adress by changing the number after "spot=" to the number of the position you desire.
6) Type [enter] and the player you drafted in step 1 should appear in the spot you desire..

For example, if you wanted to draft 2011 Placido Polanco in your catcher spot, your could draft him as third baseman and copy from your browser this address:
http://www.whatifsports.com/mlb-l/themewiz_buildteam.asp?action=add&spot=4&playerid=1853995

After deleting him, paste that same address into your browser editing the number after spot= from 4 to 1:
http://www.whatifsports.com/mlb-l/themewiz_buildteam.asp?action=add&spot=1&playerid=1853995.
Hit enter and 2011 Polanco is now in your catcher spot.

roster spot numbers are
C 1
1b 2
2b 3
3b 4
ss 5
of 6
of 7
of 8

The above was taken from a zubinism post years ago.

There are a couple of different ways to draft guys where you want them to go, and this seems to work the best

Ah, my favorite league. Just waking up and reading the box scores every morning was hilarious. I'm in with Walter Johnson

I'm in. Please give me Pete Rose.

I'm in. Give me Billy Hamilton. I'd like to see if I can beat the number of steals I had with him last time I tried this. Hell, one of my Billy's ended up also hitting 60 dingers. He really would've hated that.

In with Christie Mathewson

Addie Joss for me

In with SP Randy Johnson

Addie Joss for me

I've done this league 4 times, and i'll tell you that you probably don't want to use Addie. There aren't enough of him, and he doesn't have the innings that you'll need for a team made entirely of Hamilton's and Foxx's. Pitching isn't as important as hitting, but it's still important.
