THE SYSTEM - MINORS/MAJORS FULL - replacement needed

[BC Manager]

3 players left -- get 'em while they're hot!

Making the team load in the minors first come first serve ought to make it faster to load then the majors, but no guarantee. As a West manager in the majors I will hold up if necessary (co-ordinating with BC) so the minors and majors fill in the same week.
It would be complicated if they were offset because the roster freeze would be different in each league.

The Detroit Motors were the first organization to complete its entire roster and are ready to go. The Flint Motorparts will join the farm soon.

Thanks canauscot. I was thinking of asking you to be the 'designated waiter'.

Love the team names, too. Now I'm gonna have to come up with something clever for my farm team.

[BC Manager]

Jsam gets Jesse Jefferson by default. Nice that the # of players and parks allowed us to do an even number of rounds and everyone gets the same # of players.

Well done, guys. Now on to filling the leagues. We're waiting on BigA to join the East in the Show.

I've pm'd the password to the Central owners.

A reminder to try and base your teams' locations on the state you picked at the outset. I'll assume in BigA's case there's a town in Delaware called "Systematic". :lol:

My team names have been corrected to represent the great state of California!.....my teams are loaded up and ready to go. Just waiting to load the west.

Some trivia while we wait.

With a $100M "show" and $80M "farm" and a minimum $7.5M "reserve" lost you can afford over $187.5M in total salary.

From the draft, the cheapest squad is Jsam's with $165.09M and the most expensive is Sphillip's $193.18M. The average is $183.3M

5 squads came in with total salary over $190M and 3 of them are in the Central together with the cheapest Jsam. Will he be Baltimore to a Yankee-Red Sox pocketbook war? or will his roster flexibility allow him to do more with less?

[BigAlric]

Forgot to re-name my squads before entering. Is there a way to change team names without creating too much problems with divisions etc.??

[sphilipp8]

Does anyone mind if I use Rhode Island for my team names instead of CT? I chose CT only because RI doesn't have a pick 3. Either way I'll load my teams this evening.

[BC Manager]

BigA, it's not a big deal, but if you want to change the names I think you can email Bernie or SOM to do it.

Sphilipp, I have no issues with RI locations being used, but does RI have more than one City? :wink:

There's 2 in the Central. Not likely we'll fill the "Show" tonight. That's fine as I want teams to have lots of time to make moves between the majors and minors before the seasons start, and to make trades. Let's try to get the leagues filled this weekend, though.
