There are too many choices I want to try!!! I will go with Davey Johnson. A couple of questions I wanted to double check on: DH? Clones? We can twist the draftable players?

Thanks for bringing up some important points.

No Clones

Yes any WIS season of your drafted players

And Yes to DH. A league like this screams for DH . I’m pretty sure I didn’t use it when I ran this league in the past but I will here.

Thanks for joining.

I’m going to go with Billy Martin for my first team

I'll try with Deacon McGuire. Just confirming, can you twist both the "played with" AND the "played for (managed)" seasons?
