2nd Annual Lenny Dinardo Theme League/One more to load!

[Jeepdriver]

Formerly the "Dewon Brazelton Theme League"

[b:e03782fbd8]Lenny DiNardo Theme League Rules: [/b:e03782fbd8]

* This will be a normal Autodraft
* $80M/advanced/DH/weighted waivers/10% drop penalty

Now for the fun! This will be a hitting league. If you love pitching, turn your head, run away and get the heck out of dodge!

1. Nobody can own any SP over $1M. If you own a SP/RP over $1M he must be used in relief only. The penalty for an SP/RP over $1M starting will be benching your highest salaried hitter for 1 series (3 games). This doesn't apply if there's an injury forcing someone else to start.

2. The max number of SP's under $1M is Five.

3. Everyone will play in 1 of 4 stadiums, with no duplicate stadium within a Division. When you sign-up you place yourself in a Division and list your park. These are the 4 stadiums to be used:

Rogers Centre
Chase Field
Citizen's Bank
US Cellular

4. Other than all your starters being less than $1M, everyone else can play.

5. How you fill out your draft card will be crucial. Some things I can think of are:

a. Do you try and pick the best SP's under a Mil
b. Do you try and get the best relievers
c. Do you go for the sluggers

This will be fun to say the least, especially those who love Hitting.

Now, the name of the league is the Lenny Dinardo Theme League. I'm sure you've been asking yourself why did he name the league that? Has Jeep lost it? The answer is no, although debatable.

Here's why:

Lenny Dinardo is close to being the worst pitcher in the deck. The highest WHIP and one of the highest ERA's. So he gets the honor of naming rights.

[b:e03782fbd8]---Here's what everyone must do to comply with the theme: [/b:e03782fbd8]

* Everyone, all 12 Owners must put Dinardo on their draft card at the 25th and last spot. So someone will get Dinardo, won't they? Obviously yes.

* The owner who gets him must keep him and use him for the entire season, [u:e03782fbd8]never dropping him[/u:e03782fbd8].

* The owner who gets him as a reward gets to claim any player not drafted after the AD and before waivers. IOW, that owner essentially has a #1 waiver pick, as no owners may put a claim on the player the Dinardo owner declares. So Dinardo actually becomes a reward for the Manager who gets him.
