Because Moose's Two Team with a Twist Theme League filled up so quickly, thought I would copy the idea (w/ Moose's blessing), for all of us who were slow on the trigger:

This time out, instead of a 2 round draft to pick an entire TEAM that is yours to do with, this will be a 4-round draft.

You will choose a HALF team. Choose the pitching half, choose the hitting half - your choice. You will have to wind up with 2 hitting and 2 pitching halves, pick them in ANY order.

The usual apply, pick lotto state for an evening pick 3 - high to low (999 to 000). Serpentine draft, 4 round. Ballpark must be from any one of your 4 halves.

During the season, no trading to other teams, move in and out of your own 4 halves at your leisure.

$100 mil, with a DH.

We will take the first nights lotto numbers after the league fills and start the next morning.

All of the team breakdowns are laid out for you on Moose's web site, ATG2 helper section. - http://mightymoose.dnsalias.com

You realize the rules you have posted differ from the leaue that filled quickley, right?

As I am looking through some of the ATG rosters, some of the teams are short on players - i.e. Boston Pilgrims 1903 - only 5 pitchers and 10 roster players. Because we will need to fill out an entire draft card with 10 pitchers and 15 players, I'm going to suggest a couple options:

1.) We limit the draft to teams which can fill out an entire draft card, or

2.) We expand the draft to 4 rounds and select 2 pitching and 2 hitting teams per Moose's original idea

Any other suggestions are welcome.

After we start getting the league filled up, we can take a vote.

Franks/Terpfan, I did make some changes to some of Moose's rules. As I stated earlier, I am open to changes. Do you think we should follow Moose's rules as he originally stated them?

I did like the rules Moose set in the other league. I say we stick to those, including the 100m cap. I'll go with whatever the majority thinks.

Think you might be best to stick with the original theme. But either way really is ok with me.

OK, I'll repost the rules to the original ones Moose listed. Thanks for the input. (Done).
