In this league each owner will draft 5 historical teams. He will then construct his or her team from the players that played on those 5 teams (no twisting). At least 3 and no more than 8 players from each drafted team must appear on the roster. The draft order will be as follows:
1. Random (from random.org)
2. inverse order from round 1
3. lowest-highest AVERAGE winning percentage of two teams drafted in rounds 1 and 2
4. lowest-highest AVERAGE winning percentage of three teams drafted in rounds 1-3
5. same as round 2
I'm using averaged winning percentage so there is no advantage to be gained from taking a short-season winner and pairing it with a 162-game season loser. There will be a max cap ($255 million) in this league - put together the best team you can from the teams that you drafted. We will use the DH for a change unless there is significant opposition to this. I know it takes a chunk out of the managing strategy, but I think in this case it might add that and more back in drafting strategy. You may have clones if you draft two teams that feature the same player. No trades, no WW. 50 LIVE.
