The GG By The Numbers League - DRAFTING NUMBERS ON ILC
Posted: Mon Jul 23, 2018 1:44 amDid you know that the first MLB teams to put numbers on their players’ uniforms were the Indians and Yankees, and that this happened in 1929?
Did you know that baseball-reference.com allows you to see all the players that ever wore a specific uniform number? And that you can sort each list be career WAR? Let’s go with it...12 teams, 36 uniform numbers.
League Parameters: $120MM Cap, Full ATG Set, DH , 5% Drops
RULES
Once 12 sign up, we’ll run a randomizer.
We will have a 3-round, draft, during which each team owner will pick 3 unique uniform numbers.
Draft order will be
1-12
12-1
12-1
Your auto draft list, and your team throughout the season, must be comprised exclusively of players who wore at least one of your three numbers at some point in their MLB career, per baseball-reference.com.
Use any card in the set for your qualifying players!
Pick any park.
Since many players have worn multiple numbers, there will be conflicts! These will of course be worked out in the auto draft.
Trades are permitted as long as all players involved are eligible for both teams in the trade.
Put your three numbers as your Town Name when you set up your team. For instance: 8-18-48
