I know the purists will hate this, but the DH allows for some other players to be used and creates more value for poor fielders like Killebrew, Howard, Allen, etc.. The 100 mil cap is fine with a live draft, but not an auto draft. I was in a 69 100 mil auto draft and it's too easy for some teams to miss out on the top sluggers. If anyone has suggestions to improve this idea, let me know.

We tried this similar concept a year ago and ended up going with an auto draft. I just sent a PM to ado jake, pill pop, Red Beards, bleacher creature, and coffee, all who signed up previously. How about UGrant and some of the other top players?

Don't do it!

Stick with the 12 round draft. Way more fun.

I agree with centerfielder (who should get in this league - he's a good player). The draft is more fun than the season!

I've written to a few owners to see if we can get this going.
