1960's League Sign ups

PostWed Dec 12, 2012 2:15 am

The 1969 game is gone. How about we set up a league of 1960's players only. ATG 7 setting for 1960-1969 only. 1960's balpark. No DH. 80 million cap. This sound feasable? I haven't set up a private league but am interested in using the 1960's era players.

I like the idea. Can you actually limit the player pool to the 60's cards or is it on the honor system?

The player pool can be set to 1960-1969 using the advanced option..go to the ATG 7 player browser to check it out.
The harder part would be reconfiguring your team after the auto draft/waivers.

How many players are available between 1960 - 1969? Are there enough to sustain a twelve team league?

To answer kenhutchings question above, there's 6 full pages of hitters and 4.5 pages of pitchers. Don't know how many are on a page, or how many are duplicates. Twelve teams are 300 players; I would think there's at least that many available.
What about 2 rounds of a serpentine draft, so everyone gets a shot at 2 decent players and then auto draft. So one or two don't get lucky in the auto draft. Would that work first of all? And then does that idea have any merit? Or does the salary cap sort of eliminate the possibility of a few teams getting lucky in just an auto draft? Just thinking out loud here.

If I am counting correctly there are around 295 cards in the 60's- counting the repeats, so maybe 260 available. I suggest not adding any 70's cause there is the 70's card sets, but if we added 1955 through the 60's we would have around 440 players minus the doubles- maybe around 400 players to pick from. Should be just about right.

Two rounds wouldn't work out because picks 1 and 2 would get 12-13 million dollar cards and picks 11-12 would get around 8 million dollar cards and it wouldn't equal out in two rounds. Two or four rounds or more might work out with the cards from the extra five years.
