MLB124759. Like an OL, but you pick average AAA & get $500k cash influx after 1 game. TOC advantage. Unlike OLs, all ballparks available. Theme winners earn more rewards than OLs. Yes injuries, clones, WW. No trades, transaction deadline, DH.

Going to join but don't think this is a true advantage in the TOC since it has AAA. Teams will be placed in the 90M or 100M TOC, putting them at a disadvantage

I’ve run this league in the past and teams did superb in the TOC. Pfatkatt used to run a similar league and teams from that league did well too as well as a similar league run by TBill, his Forum Talk. The advantage is you are picking your own AAA so you don’t wind up with the random muck you get in OLs. I understand your point about the non AAA leagues providing an advantage but you pick AAA leagues also seem to have a similar advantage.

TBill tracks his league pretty good. Ask him how his league winners offend do in their assigned TOC. I believe motorboat just won one and TBill’s leagues actually have restricted season range to boot.

I've won the TOC from his league. Stranger things have happened and any team CAN win a TOC (I've own multiple TOCs with teams from heavily restrictive WIS Championship leagues, and have seen many progressive league teams do it), but you will be at a disadvantage if you go up against a team that comes from an actual no restrictions league with no AAA.

We shall see how the winners of this league do. I do believe this configuration gives one an advantage. Look forward to seeing what your team looks like.

Well we have a differing opinion. :-) Looking forward to having you join; I’ll try to get us in the same division.

This looks like it will be a fun league. I used to run this one and play in this one quite a bit. Fun draft. Hoping to bring back a league that used to be a staple in this game.’

We have 4 so far. Not bad for 1 day. As I said, fun draft and should be some fun opportunities as well to use the waiver wire during the season to upgrade your roster.
