Strat-O-Matic Baseball 365

This thread is for the league that is currently finishing up the 1982 Theme league. We will next play the 1986 season. Stay tuned for team pairing choices and selection order. Owners from the 1982 League get first option to be in the 1986 League, but we will probably need a few owners to cover departures.

Here are the pairing choices:

tried to tighten up salaries but could not do much .....moved atlanta and mil.
looks pretty good either way

If we choose the serpentine individual team draft route, these are the individual team salaries. I would suggest leaving out the Mets and Astros so there will be more good players to draft in the additional 2 rounds:
