Pick any ballpark for season 1. Change parks ONCE in Season 2-4 if you choose.
Divisional assignments will be random for season 1, but town/team names carry over from season to season and divisional assignments remain the same for seasons 2-4. Change the town name the season you change ballparks, if you like.
BETWEEN SEASONS
Prior to the Season 2 Auto Draft:
Keepers – Each owner can name up to 5 players from his season 1 ending roster as keepers for season two. They must be included on your season 2 auto-draft list. Owners can always use any available card they choose representing their keepers, regardless of ERA.
Equalization Draft: There will be a one-round draft, drawing exclusively from NEL players, in reverse order of the previous regular season finish. As a result, beginning in season 2, each owner will enter the auto-draft with one protected NEL player, to be included on his auto-draft list.
Beyond the keepers and NEL draft players, season two rosters will use PRE-ERA cards only. Any other dead ball or NEL cards you get in the auto-draft must be dropped in waivers.
Prior to the Season 3 Auto Draft:
Keepers – Each owner can name up to 5 players from his season 2 ending roster as keepers for season 3. They must be included on your season 3 auto-draft list.
Equalization Draft: There will be a one-round draft, drawing exclusively from NEL players, in reverse order of the previous regular season finish. If you wish to keep your NEL player from the previous season, you can waive participation in the Equalization Draft and keep him, but in that case he will count as one of your 5 keepers.
Beyond the keepers and NEL draft players, season three rosters will use Post-ERA cards only. Any other dead ball, Pre, Exp or NEL cards you get in the auto-draft must be dropped in waivers.
Prior to the Season 4 Auto Draft:
Keepers – Each owner can name up to 5 players from his season 3 ending roster as keepers for season 4. They must be included on your season 4 auto-draft list.
Equalization Draft: There will be a one-round draft, drawing exclusively from NEL players, in reverse order of the previous regular season finish. If you wish to keep your NEL player from the previous season, you can waive participation in the Equalization Draft and keep him, but in that case he will count as one of your 5 keepers.
Beyond the keepers and NEL draft players season four rosters will use EXP-ERA cards only. Any other dead ball, Pre, Post or NEL cards you get in the auto-draft must be dropped in waivers.
Trades - Trades are totally encouraged. Equalization draft positions are tradable as well. However, no team will ever be permitted to roster more than one NEL player.
Accidents – If you accidentally draft a protected player, drop him either before or during waivers so that the rightful owner can pick him back up.
