[b:f9af79228d]MAY THEME[/b:f9af79228d]
In honor of an Alphabet League I was part of a few months back, our last theme of this TOTM cycle will be an extended Alphabet Style League.
Basic Rules:
NEW 2007 Card set
80m
DH
5/10/15 drop
Waivers
Any park may be chosen
Enter League at will, no set divisions
[b:f9af79228d]Hitter Rules:[/b:f9af79228d]
Your lineups from top to bottom must be in Alphabetical Order by player last name, 1-9. (Only exception is Bonds. Bonds is considered a B despite the Y.A. designation).
When a player is injured, you may either:
- Let HAL figure it out (NO LINEUP DEPTH USAGE ALLOWED)
- Change your lineup yourself, but make sure players are in alphabetical order.
[b:f9af79228d]Starting Pitcher Rules:[/b:f9af79228d]
- Same as the lineup. Rotation must be in Alphabetical order by last name.
- You may use 4 or 5 man rotations at will.
- SP/RP and *SP/RP may ONLY be used in your rotation
- *SP are permitted to skip over non *SP as long as their last name comes before the non *SP.
(Example- Jake Peavy cannot be listed higher in your rotation than Randy Johnson and thus should never pitch on 3 days rest.)
[b:f9af79228d]Closer and Relief Pitcher Rules:[/b:f9af79228d]
- All RP must be RP ONLY. SP/RP and *SP/RP must be in your rotation
- Your closer's last name MUST be alphabetically before any other RP on your team.
- Your closer is defined by the RP with the highest C rating on your team.
- You are only permitted to have one RP with a closer rating of C4 or better, or else the pitcher with the highest C rating is your closer by default.
(Example- Okajima is a C3. If you have no other pitcher with a higher closer rating than C3, he is your closer and all your RP have to come after Okajima in the alphabet. If you have Brad Lidge as well, Okajima is allowed on your team as a regular RP because he is a C3 and not C4 or higher. Lidge would be your closer. Delacarmen could not be on your staff in both above scenarios since D comes before L as well as O.)
Have fun planning your draft cards.
I will be the first team to create and enter the league. No set divisions. It will be enter at will. Start date will either be April 28th or May 7th depending on people's schedule as we load. Waivers will be crucial, so let's close at a time that works for as many people as possible.

This is going to take forever to fill out a draft card. I haven't even looked at the 2007 set. :?

Have no idea if my draft card is legal if I go 25 for 25. I see no league has been created yet. What happens if you end up with more than one player whose last name starts with the same letter, do you go with the second letter then? What happens if you end up with 1 or more players with the same last name? :?
Side note: When I called up all hitters with last name of B, Barry Bonds was listed.

Yo Sykes, you mentioned you were creating a league and join at will. I have put together a team, but I don't see that a league exists yet. My team will be happy to hold off on loading..........but FYI........the best team is ready to load!! :wink:

Sorry folks. RL has been busy this week.
Same letter last names then go to the next letter. (Smith bats after Spivey)
Players with the SAME last name, go to the first letter of the first name. (Bengie hits before Jose who hits before Yadier)
Only mentioned Bonds as the box scores sometimes show Y.A.
League will be created by Monday noon at the latest.
