Dual Franchise League 19

DUAL FRANCHISE LEAGUE SEASON 19




This is the 19th season of the dual franchise league. This League is using the ATG POST WWII CARD SET. Salary cap is 145 million, 5% DROP; WE WILL NOT BE USING A DH THIS SEASON,no waivers.

Each manager must pick one team from each column below. . For the most part , teams on the left are original franchises and most teams on the right are expansion teams. ( THERE ARE SOME EXCEPTIONS HOWEVER, AND SOME TEAMS ARE COMBINED BECAUSE OF LACK OF PLAYERS.) A manager has exclusive rights to players on his roster; if a player is on more than one roster, he belongs to the team where his salary is highest. We are using a serpentine draft, so each manager picks one team first and then we reverse the order. You can make your first pick from either column. List of teams will be posted below. Please sign up using the cut and paste method. Official draft order will follow.

I am going to stick with my original idea and implement the following change for this season only( we can assess after the season); Each team will be allowed ONE player on their roster who is not on a roster of the teams he drafted. However, that player MUST be acquired through a trade. A manager cannot simply pick up said player through free agency.
Because we are not using a DH, this change is being implemented to help teams who may have 2 very good players at the same position but will not be able to use both . Actually I don't foresee a lot of trading because this virtually limits each team to one trade.

Here is the team list for season 19

Season 15) 2,4,8,10

Season 16) 1,2,4,11

Season17 ) 1,5,8, 12

Looks like FRAANK123 won't be back.

He posted in the league that just ended.

Okay just read the email from Fraank; so we need one more manager; if anyone knows of anyone in another league who would be interested, please reach out to them. In the meantime I will post here in this forum for a replacement.i

Looks like Piloneus382 is in.....I will put him in the draft order.....

Pdixon has made his first pick.......GARRET is up next .......
