For Round Three, there will be Eight Leagues of 24 teams each. Each division will comprise five choices of specific years where you will use the three teams listed to build your roster. The three teams listed for each season were the top teams (in Wins) for that season/league. Each league is divided into N.L. and A.L. In order to have 120 choices for each league (A.L. and N.L.), I had to use the years of 1899 and 1900. 1900 is under the N.L. and 1899 is under the A.L.

In the following cases where there are four choices listed, it indicates that the third and fourth place teams had the same amount of Wins that season. In this case, you get to pick which one of those two you want to combine with the first two teams listed. The seasons I’m referring to are:

National League: 1922, 1953, 1974, 1976, 2010 and 2012

American League: 1977, 2004, 2007 and 2012

For the 2005 American League, three teams tied for second in the number of Wins they had. In that case, you take the Chicago White Sox and then two of the remaining three teams listed.

The person with the first pick in each league will choose which league/division/season he wants to use. The draft will go on until all 12 spots are filled. When filling out your roster, you must use the three teams listed to fill out all spots. For this round, we’re not doing any Free Agents from other teams. Also, you don’t need to have a certain number of players from each of the three franchises. Just create the best roster you can.

Just spoke to PedroCerrano, he is away this weekend at a cabin in the California Mountains without internet access. He doesn’t have his computer with him. Unfortunately, the drafts kicked off this weekend and he will not be able to make picks until Monday the 17^th at the earliest. He asked me to notify his leagues so that people do not keep checking.

This draft will be delayed until Monday.

I have traded my pick with harrelson. he will confirm.

Guys - sorry for the delay. I'll take 1927.

I usually prefer a pitching team, but let's have some fun with this:
1920

The allure of the big bats will be your undoing ;) I am going with deadball pitching and 1917.

I built that team too, and I definitely liked the pitching a whole lot. But I've drafted most of my teams pitching-first in here so far, and I just think there's going to be so much bad pitching in this league that maybe having a loaded offense will be an advantage somehow.

I could easily have talked myself into 1917, too. It's just a game, so what the heck.

I was just kidding ;)
I actually agree with you. I had 1927 and 1920 as my first two choices. Once they went I figured I would go with the best pitching in the deadball division.
Should be fun to see how it pans out.

contrarian23, thanks for keeping track of this for us!

I have traded picks with thebubbaq in this league and also league AL-6. This means I am up now. Will pick in the next hour or two.

Confirmed

Funny, when I made this trade, I was all set to take a different year, but after further review, we'll go with

1915

Ill go with 1916
