This league will honor baseball's expansion since 1961!
For the purposes of this league I will treat the Nationals and Expos as TWO separate franchises.

YES to DH.
No to CLONES, AAA, WW, INJURIES
Random Realignment.

You will select one the successful expansion teams listed and use their home ballpark from that season.
you can use roster from baseball-reference.
With 100 Million $$$ you will keep 18 of the listed players from your team season (split or full is fine)
you will twist FIVE players to ANY season from their career
You will select ANY TWO Player seasons from your teams history.

NOTES ON Additional players selected:
Nationals and Expos will be treated as different franchises, therefore if you pick an Expos team season you do not get to pick ANY Nats players as one of two add-ons. You can however twist an Expo to a Nat season if they played for both. vice versa
Rangers get the Senators who started in 1961
Milwaukee gets 1969 Pilots
Astros get Colt 45s

I'll take the 2017 Dbacks.

I’m in. Team TBD.

Edit: After bouncing back and forth between two ideas, I'm going to go with the 2019 Astros. Just can't pass up that rotation.

Gene, sign me up for Nationals 2019
6/20/2020 3:35 PM
I'll try the 1986 Mets...thx

So for the two add-ons, just to clarify, it can be from any year of their career, not just the years they played for our team?
6/22/2020 9:17 PM
Also, I would take two teams if you need that
6/22/2020 9:21 PM
Give me the 2001 Mariners please
6/22/2020 9:30 PM
the two add ons MUST be seasons from your franchise

great choice with 01 Mariners ex. you can take ANY two Mariner player seasons that were not a part of the 01 Mariners
6/22/2020 10:01 PM
Okay, gotcha. But the five twists can to any season from their career. So I could theoretically twist Mike Cameron to one of his Reds seasons, but I couldn't take 2002 Randy Johnson since he didn't play for the 01 Mariners.
6/23/2020 12:03 AM
2017 Astros for me. Nice pitching.
