1) You can only have a maximum of $160 million in open bids and closed bids
2) Managers must open at least four new players per day and no more than six until you have a total of 26 players opened or closed
3) Opening minimum bid is .3 million for players $3 million or less, $1 million for players over $3 million
4) Bid increments are $.1 for bids $3 million or less, $.5 for bids over $3 million
5) Bids expire once their 24-hour period is up
6) Maximum 33 players per team
7) Managers cannot bid on more than two stadiums at any given time – either open or closed bids

All managers must be able to fill out a valid TSN draft card at the end of the auction. Failure to meet this requirement is a penalty of dropping your two highest bid players and replacing them to meet the TSN draft card requirement. Managers are responsible for monitoring their draft card while the auction is in progress to make sure they will be able to meet TSN roster requirements (i.e. 10 pitchers, including at least 1 closer with a C1 rating or higher, 15 hitters, at least 2 of whom must be catchers).

No trading is allowed during the auction. Please do not discuss future trades either because it does impact the bidding process

I can't resist a league with the "genius" cristano involved. This will give me a good warm-up before I spank you like a red-headed step-child in the Tour Finals... :P

I am interested but I don't understand how the bidding process works. How do you put in a bid? Do we just use a message board like this one for the bidding?

steve -- there is a website that penn runs that we normally draft off of. you open 4-6 new bids every day and you can bid on any player out there at any time, as long as you have the money remaining to. after 24 hours of having the highest bid on any player, bidding on that player stops and you own that player. you can bid as high as you want on any player as long as it fits under the $160M maximum. any other questions?
