Rules

This is a progressive league that begins with season 1987.

Draft times will be 10AM ET to 10PM ET everyday. Only players that are WIS eligible for a certain draft are available. If you're unavailable for your draft time send proxys to other available owners, particularly owners drafting after you. If teams miss their draft times, picks can be made up anytime. If selections aren't made by the following draft day the commish has the right to make up these picks.

Drafts will be based on reverse order of standings after 120 games. 1-24, 1-24. Teams must have a minimum 27 wins at this point or will lose one draft position for every win below this plateau.

Cap is $255M. No to AAA, WW and DH. Yes to trades including draft choices. Draft choices can only be traded one year ahead. After the trade deadline, draft picks can be traded in the upcoming draft and the following season draft.

If RL team changes park you must change park. Use RL team city name. Use any nickname.

Teams will post unlimited protected lists near the end of the season including IR, no limit.

Below average minor league players allowed to play in this league.

There is an Add/Drop thread for those who need to make any changes to their rosters. This takes place after the draft is complete 10AMET on a first come first served basis. Dropped players can be picked up by other teams. Please don't use the Add/Drop thread thread until the draft is completed

Unused draft picks (slots) can be traded within reason. Example: Team One trades their unused 2nd draft pick this season to Team B for their 2nd round pick next season.

If a player that is already owned is drafted, that owner must draft again ASAP. I try to keep the available player list mistake free but all owners should check the keeper lists as well.

Update: In season trades involving only draft choices should go through the trade center as well.

Update: No limit on IR players.

Update:
I'd like to keep this league going through 2012 and then start over in 1987. So I'm going to add a 1 round seperate draft for players from the 80's each season to build up our rosters for after the 2012 season.

The first draft will be for players from 1982, and the next draft will be from 1983 and so on.  So all teams will have a solid base of 6 or 7 players when we go back to 1987.

The players in this draft don't have don't have to be rookies.
