This will be a 24-team league with a five-round snake-style draft with a third-round reversal to be held in the Theme League draft forum.

Draft will go:

round 1: 1-24
round 2: 24-1
round 3: 24-1
round 4: 1-24
round 5: 24-1

Each player drafted will be exclusive. You will clone exactly five seasons of each player you draft.

Once we fill, there will be a randomized draw of owners provided by someone not in the league.

This order will be used for owners to select your draft position. This will impact your ultimate division as well.


1920-2024 seasons eligible
Salary cap: $120 million
No trades, no AAA, no Waiver Wire
Yes DH
Injuries Off
Full, partial and combined season all usable
Ballpark must have been one used by one of your players in a rostered season
Alignment by draft order (not the randomized order). This adds one more layer of strategy

The salary cap should make things interesting.

I tried to reach happyhours to let him know that we are selecting draft order now. However, instead of holding up the draft, he will just get pick number 1.

happyhours confirmed by sitemail that he is okay with pick number 1. Thank you for that.

pedrocerrano is next up

I'll take #4

#2

#3

#5

#24

#23
