Recently, I was able to successfully run a hockey league based on the draft and thought we'd try it out for MLB. I don't think this theme has been done before so it should produce some lesser-known players.
Select an exclusive year and comprise your team solely from players selected in the June Amateur Draft. We won't be using the secondary drafts.
In keeping with the spirit of the theme the #1 overall draft pick must be on your roster assuming they have a season in the database.
League rules:
- $110 million cap
- Twist players to any season.
- NO: DH, AAA, Clones, injuries, trades, or WW
- Select any stadium active in your year
- 24 team league with standard playoff format
