Only five spots left. Let's fill 'er up!

See page 1 for the rules. Basically puts limits on AB and IP based on real life usage (120% of real life AB or IP, 140% for RPs and catchers). Minimum 26 men rising to 28 man roster minimum at game 96. Midseason supplemental draft for additional players. Soft cap of $100 million rising to $110 million at game 96.

I am not trying to create waves but maybe we could simplify the rules just a little bit in order to draw in a few more players. I really like the rules you have created but maybe some people are hesitant to join because of the two drafts on diamond dope. I am up for whatever, but if you are interested in hearing my simplified idea just let me know, and if not no hard feelings and I am still in for what you have set up.

I was thinking what if we just did a regular draft card draft with a mandatory minimum of 26 players to start the season, going to a mandatory minimum of 28 players at a game number determined by Geoff and at that same time we all get to use the additional 10 million dollars we have in reserve.Everything else like the usage limits would be as you wrote it up..

I am a little worried about a mid season draft and I do think it would be better if after a certain game number we have to expand to 28 and we get to use our extra 10 million. The problem with freezing the rosters after game 75 until game 96 is what if we have to drop a player do to usage limits or injury? Also some people might be too busy for Diamond Dope drafts. Having a 9:00pm opening up period after game number X would create a bit of a waiver wire frenzy but that might be fun and easier to pull off.. .Just an idea....

I liked to join, how do I go about it. I am new to site.

I am curious and might be interested but the rules seem a bit too much. Maybe simplify it a bit? I like the sounds of most of it but maybe a slightly simplified version would be better. Let me know if there is still room and what I must do.

It boils down to this -

-minimum 26 man roster to start. You don't need to worry about what happens at game 96 until later.

-must limit player useage based on real life stats.

-Most batters are limited to 120% of real life at bats. Catchers are limited to 140% of real life at bats.

-Starting pitchers are limited to 120% of real life innings pitched. Pure relief pitchers (i.e. can't start) are limited to 140% of actual real life innings pitched.

Click on start a new team. Click on "2012u" (it's the small click button underneath the 2012 heading).

Click on "non-standard" salary cap - enter $110 million.

Enter your team. Keep in mind that you want to get good players with lots of at bats or innings pitched, and still fit under the salary cap.

For now all you have to do is say you want to join this league, on a reply on this thread!

bump!

Geoff, the above sound like you are using a SOM draft rather than diamond dope - but the rules indicate diamond dope. I'm a bit confused, but will sign up. Doesn't bastf21 just copy the list and add his name to it? The mechanics of adding his team come after the diamond dope draft.
