This will be my first non-standard league, so I may need some help in getting through the "administrative" parts of picking the teams. (I don't understand the rules already! :lol: ) But I have a credit to burn, and this looks like fun, if you'll have me!

So, draft any team you want in round one, then strictly reverse order in round two.

Round 3 will be to pick a park, in the same order as round one.

Round four will be to draft 0-3 fa (number depends on how many players you protected on the team you drafted in round one). I assume you pick ALL of these players (could be 3) at once. Round 4 is in the same order as round 2.

Round 5 will be to draft 0-2 FA (won't it always be 2?). Again, I'm assuming you pick two players at the same time.

After that, there will be no waiver period, but once the teams are set thru the game engine it is immediately to wide open free agency.

Do I get it?

Do we list our protected players in order as well? If yes, in what order?

There isn't really a RD 3 I would call it RD 2A & 2B with the drafting of Ballparks being 2B.

I corrected the numbers protect so that the 0-2 protected players in the last RD makes sense. I had gotten lost when changing some numbers in the process.

Regarding RD 4 you seem to have it right.

Yes, there will be no waiver period.

Regarding listing protected players in order - there shouldn't be a need to list players in any order unless I'm missing something. Each manager will list there protected players here so that when the final 2 rds are taking place all managers will be able to make there picks.

I would suggest messaging me questions and I would suggest that you might consider going to the 1969 Message Board and on Page 2 of the board go thru a couple of the COMBO Theme Leagues that are there that I ran. This would familiarize you with how leagues have been set and how drafts ended up.

Will do. Thanks.

ok

There is no need to list in any specific order.
