Is there a reason we are using a salary cap? I asked someone else to get in the league and that was their holdup. I will play either way but it does seem like getting rid of the salary cap would make it more interesting.

The cap is probably a moot point in a draft league with such a short window of 10 seasons to pick from. I don't even think it will come into play. The highest hitter available to be selected is 77 Rod Carew at $9.8 million and there are only six hitters with a salary above $8 million. Even putting all the highest-paid position players available on one team as a starting eight only came to $66.3 million. In a draft league, it would be shocking if any two of them wound up on the same roster.
As for pitching, there are 16 pitchers above $10 million, but four of them are duplicate seasons of pitchers like Tom Seaver and Gaylord Perry.
I think you will see a lot of regular players making $4m-$5m starting and playing regularly in this league and a lot of relievers in the $2 million range that will be used. It's been a while since I've run a league in WIS, but the salary cap is there because usually when you set up a league you have declare it as something, and I seriously doubt it will be an issue at $120 million.

I vote keep the way you have it with a salary cap

do you think we will have to make this a 16 team league?

Not sure. Hoping we can still get 24. Let's give it some time.

i will join would prefer a lower cap

Welcome, jeff4noles

i'll play

welcome in, insomniacsoc. That's 15.

Play it as is.  It's a draft, luck of the draw and how you draft.  Not really as much strategy as you might think in a single decade.  Keep the $120 million Terry.

I've taken part in several of these types of drafts. There is no way with 24 teams that anyone will get close to the 120 million cap. I'm in a league where we drafted players from 1885 to 1899. I drafted players with salaries of 23.6 mil, 19 mil and 9.5 mil. With those 3 my total salary was still only 125 million. The biggest challenge for owners will be getting enough PA and IP.

Let's get this filled up.

I'll join if it's a 24 team league, not interested in a 16 team league right now

OK, dcmatcheck. Let's keep chugging toward 24. (16 in now)

this has been going for a month now I don't want to wait another couple weeks to fill. I prefer we go with 16. Quicker draft there may be guys who have already dropped being its taken a long time to fill, just saying
