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.
