4 - Pesky Fan - must start at least two players with defense of 4 or worse in the field
5 - Hamilton17 - 5 card draw ... when rules are finished, I will randomly assign 5 compliant players to each team. You must keep the players on your roster all season, no trades or cuts. Must use the specific assigned card for the player. You can discard up to 4 of the original 5 player cards, but they will be replaced and you cannot get rid of the replacement.

Question on rule #5.
If 5 cards are assigned to each team by Joseph, who gets to assign 5 cards to his team?

I'm using a random number generator. I won't be "picking players." It will be randomized. I'll send out the spreadsheet prior to the number drawings.

I'll be using Random.org to generate a sequence of 60 numbers between 1 and however many cards we end up with in the set. The numbers will be "dealt" to each team in the rules draft order (1st number to 1st team, 2nd to 2nd team, and so on)

We will go quickly and I'll e-mail results to everyone so that you can decide to keep the hand you are dealt or discard and replace any cards.

No players other than NEL can be excluded from the draft,


There is my new rule

We already excluded all *pitchers so first off that’s not possible.

Reducing the player pool is the essence of the draft. That can’t be a rule, won’t t allow it. Takes all the fun from the remaining participants.

Reluctantly we will grant your first rule and move on.
