$90M 1 Team + 2 Wild Card Twist (FULL) Topic

Pick any single season team from history and choose 23 players from that team's roster, who may then be twisted to any season of their careers. Refer to https://www.baseball-reference.com/ for roster information. Your other 2 wild card players must come from the same franchise as your chosen team, but can be chosen from any season in the franchise’s history. The wild card players can both be batters or pitchers, or 1 of each. As long as WIS identifies your wild card players as members of your chosen franchise, they can be used even if they were traded during the season and had combined stats. You must use your chosen team’s home field from that season, or WIS park if the actual park isn’t available. No $200K exceptions allowed, so your chosen team must have had at least 23 players on their roster in order to potentially be used.
$90M salary cap. No DH, AAA, clones, trades, or WW.
Alignment will be random unless any owners enter 2 teams. Teams are not necessarily exclusive to one owner, so there's no need to sign up in the forum. First come, first served. Please join by entering your team in MLB127052. Thanks!
