From ssupfoo's SimLeague - Second Cousins Once Removed League
To the Live version of - Kissing Cousins Live League:
MLB111432
Choose two players with the same surname, then choose one season post-1900 for each of those players. Draft a team of players who were teammates of that player those seasons, twisted to any season in their careers. $120MM cap. AAA will be average rating with 6 fielders and 4 pitchers. No DH, no trades, no waiver wire, and no bunting a runner home from 3B with the pitcher. Name your team incorporating the shared last name. 40 games played live will be required to make the playoffs. Both cousins must be on your roster when league first starts. Then they can be sent down to AAA if so desired.
There will be only one selection of a combined players seasons. 1 cousin may be duplicated but not both cousins. For example if taken Walter Johnson 1913 Senators and Randy Johnson 2001 Diamondbacks, then there will not be another team of those 2 players from those 2 teams. Walter Johnson and Randy Johnson may be selected together again but not from the Diamondback - Senator combination. Stadium must be one of the two team's home stadium from the years that you choose. Players and their season rosters will be on a first come first served basis.
Fellow Live regulars please feel free to let me know if I have missed anything, since this will be my first attempt at playing Commissioner.
I will start off by taking Fred Clarke - 1911 Pittsburgh Pirates and Nig Clarke 1910 Cleveland Naps.
