Thanks to braveboy for letting me run this
You'll be assigned a random team from the years 1960 to 2010. I will use random.org to do this:
Each franchise is given a number from 1-30, based on alphabetical order.
1. Arizona
2. Atlanta
3. Baltimore
4. Boston
5. Chicago Cubs
6. Chicago White Sox
7. Cincinnati
8. Cleveland
9. Colorado
10. Detroit
11. Florida
12. Houston
13. Kansas City
14. Los Angeles Angels
15. Los Angeles Dodgers
16. Milwaukee
17. Minnesota
18. NY Mets
19. New York Yankees
20. Oakland
21. Philadelphia
22. Pittsburgh
23. San Diego
24. San Francisco
25. Seattle
26. St. Louis
27. Tampa Bay
28. Texas
29. Toronto
30. Washington/Montreal
Then, to determine what year roster you will use, I will get you a random number from 1970-2008. Example: Random.org spits out a 2 and a 2006 for you -- this means your team will be drafted from the 2006 Atlanta Braves roster of players. In the event that I draw a year that your team does not have a season listed for, then I will draw another random year until a viable season is drawn.
You have 100 mil to twist the players on your team any way you see fit (e.g., to when they played with other teams, or even before 1970)., By the way, you can draft any player that had at least 1 ab or 1 IP for your team. So make sure you go to Baseball Reference.com to view your full roster. For example if you get the 1993 Braves. Chipper Jones had 4 At bats for that team so he will be legal player on your team.
I will randomize everyone, except myself. I'll ask the first Hall-of-Famer that joins to randomize me.
