Real Teams Plus (Formerly L. Pope)
Posted: Sun Aug 21, 2011 7:37 amAfter suggestions for changes here is the result. This will be the final format revision, only further changes made will be for major competitive issues that I may have overlooked.
There will be a 7 round draft:
1st and 2nd Round: Choose an entire pitching staff and an entire position player set from two different 2010 MLB teams. Either one can be picked first. Order determined by randomizer, serpentine. Example- In the 1st round you have the first pick so you take a pitching staff, say SF. In the 2nd round you would have the last pick and would take a position player set from a team, say Detroit. Or you could take Texas Hitters 1st and then St. Louis Pitchers.
3rd-7th Rounds: Choose 4 players (any combo of pitcher/hitter) from the 36 pitching staffs and position player sets not chosen in the first 2 rounds. No roster restrictions, these 4 players do not need to be from the same team but you can have multiple players from same team if you wish. [b:46b323307f]Stadiums [/b:46b323307f]will be unique and can be chosen anytime from the 3rd-7th rounds. Stadiums can be from any MLB team. [b:46b323307f]Order [/b:46b323307f]for this draft will be reverse of total salaries of the staff/position player teams chosen in first 2 rounds. This will be a straight draft, i.e. order will be the same for each round; if you pick 5th in the 3rd round you will pick 5th in rounds 4-7.
Roster size will be max 28, as few as 25 if desired. Owners will retain rights to all players drafted even if not on 28 man roster. Trading unlimited. Frenzy waivers will be used. After waivers no free agent drops/pickups allowed other than with players whose rights are owned from the draft and pre-season waivers. Owners must keep at least 15 players (any combo of pitchers/hitters) from their two drafted teams.
Salary Cap=$100M, 5-10-20 penalty on drops (can you have no penalty? If so no penalty for drops), DH, regular 2010 set. Other than roster rules stated above regular SOMO rules apply to transactions.
Division alignments- Will be determined by order of the 3rd round, 1-4 East, 5-8 Central, 9-12 West
