8/14/2026Blacklist League - Season 25$130 milNoNoNone0/0No2
The rules are fairly easy: $130 mil cap, all seasons available. No AAA, WW, Clones, or Injuries. I envision DH being used every other season, starting with season 2, just to mix it up. Season 25 WILL NOT use a DH. Now for the blacklist...after each season, the following leaders will be blacklisted for future seasons: HR, RBI, BB, SB, and Batting Average. For Pitchers: Wins, Saves, OAVG, WHIP, ERA. If there is a tie, both are out. I will be reading the leader columns fr

Division drafts will require owners to select the specific season and salary of each player as they draft. A player will go off the board for that division once any season is selected. Draft order for the first round will go from highest-ranked owner down (e.g., 1 drafts first, then 12, then 13, then 24). Subsequent rounds will go from lowest cumulative salary to highest.
