You Twist Random League - (New) Full Topic

You Twist Random League

16 Teams w/interleague play

This is a multi-season league. It will feature Twisting and Randomness.

To start, everyone will select any team from 1920-2023. Pick your team at signup. I will pick mine last. You can twist any of those players to any season. Cap for Season 1 will be $80M.

You will also get 30/20 AAA Players, Auto Generated Real Names, Random Quality.
You can use your AAA players at any time. They will also be your pool of players you will use for the next season to possibly add to your roster. We won't have a draft to add new players. You get who you get and make the most of it. Trading for players of need may be desired but there is no rule against playing players out of position.

Starting with season 2, your pool of players to make your roster for season 2 will be the 25 players you started with and your 50 AAA players from the previous season. Make your best 25 man roster from those 75 players. You pick which season to use of each player with one exception... You cannot use the same season twice. So any of your 25 main roster players you'll have use a different season and any of the 50 AAA players can use any season since it is there 1st season on your main roster. Remember the Salary Cap will change each season so you will likely have to use different seasons anyway. (I will keep a list of seasons used for each of your players in the league forum for reference).
The 50 Players you don't use will be gone and you'll get 50 new ones again in AAA.


Random Salary Cap each season between $60M to $130M.
DH determined Randomly (No DH for Season 1)
No WW
Clones may happen with AAA being Auto Generated with Real Names.
Injuries off
Yes Trades with normal veto process
Your Stadium is chosen Randomly each season. I will draw that for season 1 once you announce your Team at signup.
Random Alignment

Can we twist and use a player if they appeared for that team that season but didn’t reach the cut off to have a WIS season?

I'm guessing we can since even reaching 25 players wouldn't be possible otherwise on some early teams. I'll take the 1928 Philadelphia Athletics

This sounds fun. I went to Baseball Reference and used the random feature until I landed on a team page. So I'll take the 2002 Cleveland Indians.

So let's say you have a player but then somehow get that same player in your AAA draw. Can you promote the AAA version at season's end and reset his years?

Clones are possible, so you could use both versions, one would be your original and the other would be considered a new player. If you drop one version then yes, the new one would be starting over.
