Here are the updated rules.
Each manager will pick 2 franchises from those that have operated since 1969. This excludes Toronto, Seattle, Florida, Colorado, Tampa Bay, and Arizona. That leaves 24 franchises (combine Senators/Rangers and Pilots/Brewers).
Managers can have one of the teams they had the first season, but not two.
Once franchises are drafted, you will keep both franchises through 5 different leagues, all played at the same time. Those leagues will be: 1969, the 70's, the 80's, 1986, and 2008.
A point system will be in place that works as follows:
1 point for each victory +
5 points for making the playoffs +
5 points for making the WS +
5 points for winning the WS.
The manager with the most overall points at the end of the five leagues is the WINNER. If you care to donate a prize to the winner, please let me know. This is not required, but sure makes things fun.
Here is the fine print:
- $100 M Leagues, 5/10/20 waivers
- Serpentine draft of teams based on lottery (low to high).
- DH in all leagues EXCEPT 1969
- Player eligiblity for 70's and 80's goes to the team for which the player had the most seasons on their card. In case of ties, AB/BB or IP will break the tie. If that manager does not take the player they are eligible for any team that appears on their card.
- 25-man rosters at all times.
- Stadium must be picked from one of your two teams.
- Trades are limited to no more than 2 per team and can involve no more than 4 players on a roster. In otherwords, no more than 4 players on a roster could be from teams other than your two picks.
