500 Home Run twist league Topic

   I was looking around baseball reference tonight and I was looking at the List of players with over 500 career Home runs.
Bonds
Aaron
Ruth
Mays
Griffey Jr
ARod
Sosa
Thome
Robinson
McGwire
Killebrew
Palmeiro
Jackson
Ramirez
Schmidt
Mantle
Foxx
McCovey
Thomas
Williams
Banks
Matthews
Ott
Sheffield
Murray

   So I thought it would be fun to have a league where each owner would get one member of the 500 club and twist any teammates that he had during his career to any year of there career to get there position players. Then twist there 500 clubber to any year of his career as long as he remains a starter.             

   The fun little twist I had in mind was that your pitching staff can only contain pitchers that your 500 clubber hit at least 1 home run off of. You can find this little stat at this link.......       http://www.baseball-reference.com/leaders/HR_career.shtml

I used random org to generate a random list of the 500 clubbers and since there are 25 members of the club and only 24 owners in a league, member number 22 E. Matthews and his 512 home runs is the odd man out. I will give you your assigned 500 clubber as owners sign up.  Here is the time stamp from my random list generator...........

I am leaning at 120mil cap.

I will take the first team and the first 500 club member on the random list was actually a guy I hated as a player in Mike Schmidt and his 548 HR's
