Random Captain 64 is here!
This season, we're changing it up a bit.. Instead of the three Random Captain candidates owners usually receive via random.org, this time out you will get FIVE candidates, each with 16 or more MLB seasons (captains used since Season 51, when we had our reboot, are blacklisted).
You will choose ONE of these five 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: CLONES, WW, TRADES, AAA
YES: DH this season (we use the DH every 4th season)
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 273. The numbers 1-273 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 5 numbers, the second owner (thaneoffife) will get the next 5 numbers, and so on.
Owners are listed below in the order they signed up.
