A couple of questions before I pick:

1) Using the 1985 Cardinals example - There are a lot of players that played on the 1987 Cardinals as well as 1985.. Could an unlimited amount of owners pick players from the 1985 Cardinals, twist them to 1987 and play 1987 Ozzie Smith as the twist teammate? No limit on how many 1987 Ozzies we may have in the league

2) Also, lets say the 1990 A's are also taken as well as the Cardinals. Can someone draft 1990 Willie McGee, twist him to 1985 Cardinals version and add 1985 Tudor as his teammate?

1. If the 85 Cardinals are 1 of the teams nominated then everyone will need to draft 1 player from them, so 16 players total will be chosen from each team. Yes, they all could twist those players to 1987 and use that version of Ozzie.

2. I did not put any limitations to twisting and teammates so, yes this could happen.
I have a followup to Question #2. McGee is getting twisted, and he has a partial and combined season for 1990. Which salary counts towards draft position for the next round? I am also guessing you don't necessarily need to declare your twist when you draft?

The version you take counts towards your salary.
Keep in mind that if you take that version and DON'T twist him you can't change him to any of his other 1990 versions. You must use that version.

bheid, question: during the player draft, the "salary" that counts is always the player's salary from their "anchor" team, right? we don't have to decide or announce who we're twisting during the draft?
