This progressive started in the 1976 season and is now entering 2020
*WE ARE WAITING A FEW WEEKS TO START 2020 UNTIL THE RELEASE OF THE 2021 PLAYERS IN THE DATABASE
We need an owner for 1 franchise....you can choose from the following:
Tampa Bay
Miami
Seattle
Colorado
Kansas City
Detroit
Pittsburgh
RULES
Twist the 2020 season for your teams roster.....and every subsequent season. The plan is to continue this league in perpetuity once we catch up to present day, starting each season at the end of the real MLB season.
If you are new to the "twist" concept it means that you can use any season of a players career, as long as he played at least 1 game with your selected team that season. (Use https://www.baseball-reference.com/) If a player played 1 game for the Cardinals in 2018, then he is eligible to be used, and you can draft any season of his career.
Twist every season after that as we go along.
Usual Twist rules.....use roster at baseball-reference.com, use any season for any player on roster
*$108m for the initial 25-man roster you draft
*We MANUALLY DRAFT AAA - Each AAA player has a max of $1.5m salary. (the purpose of this is for depth and these players still come from the real roster for your team) For the 2020 season only I am adding AAA slots. Rather than the usual 6/6, for this season only we will have 12 AAA position player spots and 10 pitchers, to make sure everyone can have enough PA and IP.
DH in BOTH leagues
No WW
No Clones
Use Stadium used by your team
ALIGNMENT IS FIRST TO WORST EVERY YEAR BASED ON WIN PCT. (So AL West is worst 4 teams)
