Homer Madness Round 3 MLB126164 FULL Topic

The object of the game is to hit as many HR, and give up as many HR as you can yet finish above .500 while doing so...82 wins is the mimimum, .500 isn't good enough...

You will receive 1 point for every home run you hit, and 1 point for every home run your team gives up.

The top 8 combined scores that finish ABOVE .500 will advance to the postseason, where they will be ranked 1 through 8 based on their combined totals.

***To ensure fair play here, I am instituting roster minimums of 300 homers for your hitters, and 150 homers surrendered by your pitching staff. 1,300 innings is the minimum here, you can't possibly get by with less...I strongly encourage you to draft more than you think you'll need. They take a beating here. We use the DH, and injuries are turned on.

Season 1 was $110M, Season 2 was $125M. We will drop the salary cap for this one down to $100M...

This will be a public league, so you will need to enter your team to reserve your spot.

It's a very entertaining league. Like I said, draft a bit more innings than you normally would. The pitchers really do take a beating here. How much? My 1998 Pedro, used primarily as a Long A, surrendered 70 homers in 174 innings. He posted a 7+ ERA toiling in Yankee III...even with those numbers, he went 12-2 for a team that managed 103 wins.

The League ERA for Season 2 was 8.82.

Without disclosing too much, consider an extra arm or two that can eat innings yet contribute to your totals...hint.
