DRAFT 'EM ALL LEAGUE (D.E.A.L)--The 25th season! amerk1180 has been the main comissioner for 24 seasons of the DEAL franchise, since founding the league. This 25th season will be his LAST as commish before handing over the duties to the competent hands of kelly1. (don't worry, he will still be in the league)
e are the basics:
--We will have a snake style draft involving all 24 signed up and committed owners. The draft will take place in the baseball theme leagues forum.
--Each team will draft a full 25 man team in that draft. ALL PLAYERS DRAFTED ARE EXCLUSIVE--meaning, once Babe Ruth for example, is off the board, NO ONE else can draft ANY season of Babe Ruth. In other words, no clones allowed of any player, and only ONE season of that player can be used. That will be up to the owner who drafts him.
-- $200 million cap.
--We will do one round of drafting per day, other than the first round. Each round will be ON the clock, meaning you can be skipped if you miss your draft slot time. Each owner gets a half hour draft slot from 10am to 9:30 pm. Once a round is completed for that day, the draft will continue in "off the clock mode" until the picks stop coming in.
--For this draft, we will do 17 rounds (days) of one pick per owner, then three days of two picks per owner, and then one day of three picks per owner--so the draft should take 21 days. If you do the math, this adds up to 26, yet rosters are only 25. This is due to the fact that each team must use one of these draft spots to draft a stadium. All stadiums will be exclusive. *Royals stadium and Kaufmann stadiums are the same stadium though--IE two differently named stadiums in the same city with the exact same dimensions are the same stadium.
--We WILL be using a DH. There will be NO waiver wire or minor leaguers. Trades will be allowed, both of unused draft picks and/or actual players who have been drafted. Once the draft is complete though, there will be no trading.
--The entire WIS baseball database is open. Players from 1885-2020 available for drafting.
--You can name your team any time during the draft . All team names MUST have the word "DEAL" or any derivative of that word in the team name. As a special wrinkle, each team MUST ALSO have the word twnty, twentieth, XX or 20 in the team name!
