what’s our ballpark rule for this league??
I found the following in the rules but it’s a complete contradiction
STADIUM RULES
1. Each player will draft a stadium during round 41 of the initial free agent draft.
2. Stadium draft order will be the reverse of round 1 of the initial free agent draft.
3. Stadiums are unique and belong to each owner for the duration of the league.
4. Replacement owners will be allowed a one-time option to change stadiums upon joining the league.
5. Owners can choose to change their stadium after 3 years (or 6 SOMO seasons).
6. There will be a separate stadium draft immediately following the spring FA draft each year.
7. Owners wishing to change stadiums must drop their stadium PRIOR to the spring FA draft.
8. Stadiums can also be changed through trade. Players may trade stadiums with other players at any time except while a regular season is in progress.
9. If the BP effects change by +/-6 in one category or by +/-15 in all four categories combined the owner may change stadiums.
please note 3,4,5,6 & 7 of the rule
anyone know what we usually do regarding ballparks?? I would say by looking at this rule that it needs to be cleaned up a little.
a side note ……. it seems STRAT (Hal) has been significantly changing ballpark numbers from one year to the next with no real consistency. I compared the 2020 ballparks with the current 2021 ones & there were several significant changes.
so my personal opinion is IDK if we want to have permanent ballparks with no ability to change them according to the makeup of our teams.
