AAA 60 Batters And 20 Pitchers Way Above Average Ability Auto Real Names -- NO DH -- YES CLONES -- 1st Season $80M (Enter for Instance 2014 Anaheim Angels) -- Trading Encouraged For That Special SP -- All Ballparks

SEASON 1 - We all start off DEAD EVEN with the use
..........OF: 60 / 20 WAA AAA ONLY!
..........Owners may fill in rosters with any players and then at start of season,
SEND ALL Salaried players to AAA for WAA AAA players
I hope using WAA AAA we have very few FATIGUE ISSUES!

SEASON 2 - 60 / 20 WAA AAA [ AND ]
............Twist ( 1 ) player from your SEASON 1 WAA AAA SQUAD

....A ) TWIST ORDER for SEASON 2........Will be from Season 1 stats:
Team Fielding - PK - Runners Picked off - *NOTE ALL 14 season TWIST ORDER stats posted at bottom.
............................Fewest 1st - Most Last

....B ) Draft - " NO CLONES "
All owners will DRAFT 1 Player - BY SALARY - ( That would be your Twisted player )
1 ) Lowest Salary Drafts 1ST
30) Highest Salary drafts LAST!
" IF " there is a " TIE " for salary :
TIES will be determined by: Season 1 W/L record
WORST will Draft 1ST and BEST will Draft last.
..............................................................................S/2 Roster Total = 2

SEASON 3 - 60 / 20 WAA AAA [ AND ] The TWIST AND DRAFT from SEASON 2
SEASON 3 - ( 1 ) Twist - Twists may be retwisted at start of any season
............Roster Total = 3......... @ 3 SALARY will be posted for the S/3 DRAFT ORDER
The Draft in order by salary with the Lowest 1ST Highest Last
.......( 1 ) DRAFT pick - Draft picks may be retwisted at the start of any season

SEASON 4 - 60 / 20 WWA AAA [ AND ] The TWISTS AND DRAFTS from SEASON 2 & 3
............Roster Total = 4
+ S/4 Twist and draft = 6

THE FOLLOWING is for the remainder of the league
TWISTED and DRAFTED players MAY be Re-TWISTED at the start of any season
..............There is NO LIMIT on how many times a player is twisted.
...............TWISTS - MUST BE DONE - PRIOR to SALARY POST FOR DRAFT

SINCE, we are using WAA AAA for ALL SEASONS
............Players will NOT be replaced by Admin.
............The WAA AAA Players will have their REAL NAMES
............Easier to identify for twisting, Easier to search for real stats.
OWNERS: As in the past, MAY Re-Name their AAA players, I prefer if owners use female names
So, there is NO DOUBT the player is a AAA

" CUTS " : Teams MAY CUT " ANY " Twisted or Drafted Player to have a DRAFT ROUND 2
AFTER the SALARY for the DRAFT ROUND of that season is posted
NOTE* Owner will 1ST download required # of players for THAT SEASON'S DRAFT ROUND Requirement
..............Owner MAY TWIST player being " CUT " to lowest Salary.
..............Owner must announce name of player being " CUT " at that time.

" IF " there is a " TIE " for salary. The Team with the worst Season record will Draft 1ST

TWIST ORDER CHART:
Season 2 - Team Fielding - PK - Runners Picked off - Fewest 1st - Most Last
Season 3 - Team Batting - IFH - In Field Hits - Fewest 1st - Most Last
Season 4 - Team Pitching - WP - Wild Pitches - Most 1st - Fewest Last
Season 5 - Team Fielding - CS - Caught Stealing - Fewest 1st - Most Last
