[b:d91a84585e]The Original Team Based Keeper League Part 2

[i:d91a84585e]2001-2002-2003-2004(05)-2006 TBK League with a Twist:[/b:d91a84585e][/i:d91a84585e]

1 - 5 Round Draft, drafting 1/2 Teams (either Pitching or Hitting).

1a - MUST draft either 3 Hitting & 2 Pitching squads, or 2 Hitting & 3 Pitching squads.

2 - You keep the SAME 1/2 Teams for all three Seasons*

2a - Your personnel WILL change from year to year as players played on different teams on different seasons

Ex: Cliff Floyd = Red Sox 2002, Met 2003-2004

3 - You retain RIGHTS to ALL players on your 5 combined squads (2.5 teams) for the full season. Player movement is ONLY by TRADING, save for add/drops of players whose rights you own.

4 - Players belong to the team they finished the season with/team name on their TSN Card.

Ex: Cliff Floyd played on 3 teams in 2002, but belongs to Red Sox as that is the team he finished the season with.

5 - Players traded are solely for that season. Owners regain the rights to the player for future years, so long as the player remains on a 1/2 team they control.

6 - Barring majority preference otherwise, the 5th Round will be in reverse order to Rounds 1 & 3.

6a - Also, barring majority preference otherwise, you can select your ballpark from any of the 5 half squads you draft.

Ex: You draft Boston H, Yankee H, Philly P, San Francisco P & Toronto H. You can play in Fenway, Yankee, Veterans, Pac Bell or SkyDome.

7 - There will be no clock during the weekends. Due to the skilled nature of the draft (remember you're drafting a team for 3 seperate seasons) the clock will be 24 hours long. Should you miss a turn, your next turns clock length will be decreased by half (to 12, 6, 3) - unless you select before next turn.

8 - All Seasons will use DH

9 - Pick III Lottery is High to Low

10 - Season I Divisions are based on Draft order (1/4/7/10, 2/5/8/11, 3/6/9/12) while subsequent seasons divisions are based on record from previous season (best 4, middle 4, worst 4).

Note *: This will be the last season unless a majority of owners agree to carry on for 2007 - need 6 (excluding myself) to move forward. I of course am voting to have a Season VI (2007) following Season V.

So, one dumb doo doo question:

We're not drafting new teams, we're just continuing with the same 5 right? Or is there a plan to make any changes? just want to make sure we're all in the same P.

That is correct - we are continuing with the same 5 1/2 squads for the 2006 season, with an option for a 2007 season (in 9-10 months).

However all owners of this league will have reserved invitations to start over with a new set of 5 1/2 squads in Aug/Sept (once this season is over). The draft order of that league will be based on the W/L record of either this season, or ALL TBK seasons cumulative.

[size=18:64461d005e][b:64461d005e]Let's Trade!!![/b:64461d005e][/size:64461d005e]

Chuck -- same trade that we made last time??? (The Polanco deal???)

Halladay and either Clemens or Pettite (can't afford them both). Lidge or Dempster (not sure whom I am using at closer yet), springer, Prior, Maddux, wood, Tower, speier.

Overbay, Cirillo, Helms, Ausmus, Biggo, Lane

Looking to upgrade my 2b (Hall who would then be available) and my RF (Jenkins, who then also can be gone).

I am looking for a LH hitter who isn't ballpark dependent. Aslo would like a decent def backup for my MI.

G,

LH hitter not ballpark dependent? I have Helton, also Abreu but don' know if he'd fit your bill.

Would want some pitching in return, SP or RP

Sandy:

Just because you're a bonafide Oscar Minaya-Brian Cashman-Bill Stoneman rolled into one Pete-Rose hard-nosed-Billy Bean master-guru-Joe Torre-esque steamroller when it comes to trades: Yavol! on the trade (same Polanco as before)...[i:9d4d56c7fb]IF[/i:9d4d56c7fb] you'd do the honor of announcing it :wink:

(whew...[i:9d4d56c7fb]that [/i:9d4d56c7fb]was long winded) :D
