How about this theme:

All positions players must be[b:c4b3c87a16] lefthanded.[/b:c4b3c87a16]

All pitchers must be [b:c4b3c87a16]righthanded.[/b:c4b3c87a16]

But one question for y'all -- $80M or 100M? What do you think?

Congrats Hack. That sounds good to me. Autodraft could be brutal as you could get assigned a whole bunch of guys you can't use. 80 might be better since there would be more options available to fix a bad draft but on the other hand, it still is a deep pool and I tend to prefer 100 mill.

I am good either way. Let me be the first to say I like the theme. I also will help everyone out by letting them know how ill suited Roger Maris will be to this theme. :lol:

OOOOOOKAYYYYYY..... :shock:

DH or no? Any stadium restrictions?

Interesting theme idea. Are there enough lefty players at positions like 3b, 2b & SS to meet the requirement? Any way, I'm looking forward to joining you all. And, if there IS a DH, does he have to be a lefty as well, since he's not a position player?

Yes, there are enough lefties at 2B, SS and 3B. But I think we'll be better off doing this $80M than $100M. There will be some lesser lights playing at those spots...

No DH, no stadium restrictions.

Theme:
[b:626c16af6a]$80M
no stadium restrictions
All lefty hitters
All righty pitchers [/b:626c16af6a]

This is now finalized. Let's rock! :shock:

Good theme.
Can I throw my 2-cents worth in?

If all pitchers will be right-handed, then Switch-Hitters will "always" bat left handed. Because of this could we include the switch-hitters on our draft cards. :roll:

No, sorry. Just lefties ... no switchies, transgenders or hermaphrodites! We are exclusionary tribalists who only want our kind around! 8-)

This is auto draft, not live draft, correct? Frenzy or waivers? Set divisions or enter at will? Should I start working on my team, or wait until the league has been created?

by **Hack Wilson** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 4:32 pm

Good questions. This is:

autodraft
no set divisions
waivers, not frenzy

by **Hack Wilson** » Thu Apr 16, 2009 4:32 pm

You can start working on your team, but no league has been created yet, though.
