RANDOM CAPTAIN 63—FULL Topic

Random Captain 63 is here!



You will receive THREE Random Captain candidates via random.org, each with 17 or more MLB seasons.

You will choose ONE of these three players to be your Random Captain
. You will draft one of his seasons, then draft 24 of his teammates from his entire career (no twisting) to fill out your roster.

OTHER RULES

90M cap
NO: DH, CLONES, WW, TRADES, AAA
Random alignment
Park must be one that your captain called home at some point in his career


Once we're full, I'll ask a Hall of Fame owner not in this league to randomize a list of numbers between 1 and 97. The numbers 1-97 represent the possible captains in the post below; the order they appear in will determine which owner gets which captain. That is, the first owner on the list below (me) will get the first 3 numbers, the second owner (SteveIzzy) will get the next 3 numbers, and so on.

Owners are listed below in the order they signed up.

I'll take a waitlist spot in the hopes that if something opens up it's not because the 3 choices are all bad.
