Interesting theme. It's very enlightening to see all the different draft strategies in play. The games will be very different, also, with so little offensive firepower available.

[errormagnate]

draft is done someone in the EAST (see above post for divisions) should set up the league :)

My wife and I celebrate our 31st anniversary Aug. 16th. So, since we both enjoy puzzles, and that Aug. is the EIGHTH month of the year, my theme will incorporate 8 stipulations. This will be an $80m cap, with DH.

1. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as any past U.S. [b:75c4e0da55]President[/b:75c4e0da55]. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

2. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as a [b:75c4e0da55]Color[/b:75c4e0da55]. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

3. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as a [b:75c4e0da55]Creature/Animal[/b:75c4e0da55]. Plurals and Homophones are allowed. EX - FOXX & BYRD would be ok, as would Lyons. Cardenal & Kaat would not, as their names are not pronounced the same as the bird and feline. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

4. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as an [b:75c4e0da55]Occupation[/b:75c4e0da55]. Plurals and Homophones are allowed. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

5. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as any [b:75c4e0da55]Item you can hold in one hand[/b:75c4e0da55]. Plurals and Homophones are allowed. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

6. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose LAST name is the same as a [b:75c4e0da55]Geographic place you could visit and/or find on a map[/b:75c4e0da55]. Plurals and Homophones are allowed. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

7. You must have one (& ONLY one) player on your roster whose card is from the [b:75c4e0da55]year 1980[/b:75c4e0da55]. If a position player, he MUST start. If a starting pitcher, he MUST start every 4th or 5th day (depending if he is a SP* or a SP). If he is a RP, he MUST be assigned either the Closer, Setup or Middle man role.

8. You may only select [b:75c4e0da55]Parks that have an "8" in their years[/b:75c4e0da55], i.e. Royals '80, Three Rivers '78, etc. There are twenty nine of these parks, I believe.

I think/hope putting your team together with these stipulations will prove somewhat challenging, and create lineups/staffs that we don't usually see. I have checked, and there are plenty of players for each stipulation.

[rburgh]

Today is our 31St anniversary! It was a good year to get married, I guess.

[novie]

Can 1 player cover more than one stipulation?

Example... if a player card from 1980 is also a color, does that cover both of the stips?

[modmark46]

Yes, a player may cover more than one stipulation. And, congrats, Rburgh! :)
And btw, there is no live draft. Craft your teams at your will, and enter when you feel like it; no set divisions. If you are uncertain if a player will fulfill a certain requirement, ask me and I will serve as the final arbiter, if necessary. If someone gets this done early and wants to create the league, make it [b:32cf51e0b6]$80m, DH, 5/10/20, adv; name it Modmark's August Theme LG, PW protect and set for FRENZY![/b:32cf51e0b6] I probably won't get my team created until later in the week, and will create the league then, if it hasn't been done at that point.
