(XXII) 9 Random Years 1885-2025 $115M NO DH Topic

Owners are Limited to Three (3) Utility Players with 500 PA or More ... This is not a Limit on how many Utility Year Players there are --- Just not more than 3 with 500 PA

Season 20: I Will Generate Nine Random Numbers from 1885 to 2025

WIS Standard 24 Man League ... No Clones ... NO DH ... No Trades

NO Waiver Wire ... NO AAA ... All or 135 Stadia ... $115 Million Salary Cap

You May Select One 2025 Player Either Batter or Pitcher ...

You May ReRoll 1 Year of the 9 Years Randomly Generated


The Minimum # of Games Played by the Primary Position Players at Catcher thru OutFielder (ONE OF Needed) Must Be 20 And You May Check Box to Include Secondary Positions ... Actually This Gives Each Owner Much LeeWay as there are Players With Less than 70 Plate Appearances and 20 Games Played Costing less Than $225K ...

The Utility Position Players Year is Therefore to Fill the Remainder of the Position Player Roster And Utility Players May Have More PA/162 than the Primary if Beneficial to the Team And May Be Used as Starters ... Also I Noticed for Instance that 1989 does not have a Catcher with more than 509 PA So I Might Have a Platoon of Two Catchers With the Utility Position Player Year as the Starting Catcher

Addendums and Additions From Past Seasons

01/05 --- Seeing as Owners are Choosing Multiple Players From For Instance *** Catcher -- First Base -- Second Base -- Third Base -- Short Stop and the Selected Year it is Allowed to do so

jbar8888 Suggested a Chance to ReRoll Any "ONE" Chosen Year From Either 1-7 or 8-9 (Pitchers) So I will Add That ... You Can ReRoll 1 Year of the 9 Years Randomly Generated

I Looked at Several Years to See What Would Be Available for the 3 OutFielders Department But at This Salary Cap it Seems Like There is an OverAbundance ... But as ejstockman asked you will be able to use an OutFielder or Any Other Position From the #7 Utility Position Players With More PA/162 Than the Primary Year

02/12/2023 : Point of Clarification --- There MAY Be Only One OutFielder (Instead of 2 or 3 For Instance) From the Assigned #6 3 Outfielders Year so as to Use Utility Position Players Instead

(08/25) homiealiens noticed that an Owner had only one Pitching Year on his Roster ... This is a First; but there is no Rule saying the Owner Must use both Years --- even after a Re-Roll ...

(03/19) Note : Bill_James47 Pointed Out That the 2020 Season had 60 Games so the Minimum Games Played Would be 10

It Seemed Easy at my First Attempt to Fill Pitching Staff and Roster in General with more Quality Choices than could be Possible Using Only $115M ... Therefore Strategy Will Come Into Play as Well as Your Choice of Stadium

I noticed one guy has Clase from 2024 on his roster in the current season we are playing. I used him all last year, STUD reliever for me.

Please reroll 1920 pitchers, risky I know but 2014 actually looks more promising. Thank you.
