I am definitely in for the next round.

A couple of thoughts...

If you instituted a moderate salary cap (120M?), you could then include all players (and not blacklist the $10M studs).   I'd hate to see all the good Koufax's be excluded.

If you instituted a tighter salary cap ($100M), this would make some tougher draft decisions.

If you really wanted to tighten the screws, you could add the "Franchise Soup" rule, nobody can have more than one player per franchise.

I would be in favor of a cap, probably $120 M.

I like not having a cap if only for the novelty of a capless league.

I also like the "no cap" aspect of the league. If the next season is 65-89 there are no hitters over 10million and around 27 pitcher seasons; plus a boat load of 9 million plus. The talent should be fairly evenly distributed unless your draw is very lucky. Whenever we join random assigned leagues you have the chance of getting lucky or usually in my case not. The individual who gets lucky with the draw and scores the 14 million Koufax seaon, good for them but it does not necessarily assure a championship.

I finished at $152.6 M and I'm looking to win.  In fact, for this league I am going to resurrect a now defunct progressive league team of mine, Great Expectations.

I also enjoyed not having a cap. Probably wouldn't do it if there was one as I don't have the time to plan and manage the cap. I would be ok keeping the same or perhaps allow each owner one player over $10M. I'd much rather have a blacklist then a cap
