A review of the league set-up and rules...

This is a franchise league with a salary cap of $167 million with a DH. There are 13 franchises listed below; each was formed by combining ATG teams based on nickname/mascot similarities and the combined franchise name is intended to be at least descriptive if not somewhat whimsical! Each franchise in this league will also be supplemented by a free agent pool comprised of players from the NeL, the Braves franchise, the Indians franchise and whichever teams comprise the unselected franchise among the 13 listed here. In an attempt to level the field, the number of free agents will be either 1 or 2; the first six franchises selected will get one free agent, while the last six will get two apiece. The free agent selection will occur on the ILC in reverse order. So, the owner getting first pick of franchises will get the 12th free agent pick. Franchises selected 7-12 will also get their second pick after the first round of the FA selection on the ILC; for example, if I get the 12th pick of franchises, I'll get the 1st and 13th pick of free agents, the owner selecting 11th will get the 2nd and 14th FA pick et cetera.
Franchises
The Elusive Scramblers - comprised of all Dodgers and Senators
Dangerous Dudes - comprised of all Tigers and Diamondbacks
Mounted Protectors - comprised of all Phillies and Rangers
Clerical Clubbers - comprised of all Cardinals and Padres
Winged Warriors -comprised of all Orioles and Blue Jays
Claws, Paws and Horns - comprised of all Cubs and Royals
High Seas Sluggers - comprised of all Pirates and Mariners
Candy Cane Hosers - comprised of all Red Sox and White Sox
Shaded Swatters - comprised of all Reds and Browns
Towering Titans - comprised of all Giants and Rockies
Studs and Suds - comprised of all Athletics and Brewers
Outer Limits - comprised of all Angels, Expos and Astros

Player eligibility - Player with multiple cards belong to the franchise which holds his highest salary. This will be his only playing option; if, for example, the Towering Titans franchise leaves Bonds off of its roster, the High Seas Sluggers cannot use him. Bonds will then have to watch the season from the comfort of the Juice Bar (sorry, couldn't resist!) Players not carded to any of the listed franchises - players like Guy Hecker - are eligible for the draft.

Let's pick 'em!

Harry: Regarding the highest priced card controlling, what happens if the highest priced card of a player is a free agent, but he has a card with another team that is in the league? Does the highest priced card on the team in the league control? For example, A-Rod's highest priced card is with Texas. If Texas doesn't get picked, do the Yankees then own the rights to A-Rod, or is A-Rod a free agent?

In response to BDWard's question; if the Rangers squad isn't picked, ARod is a free agent. Because his high card belongs to Texas, their non-selection makes him part of the FA pool by league rule. For this league's purpose, only a player's high card matters; if he played for one other or five other squads it is immaterial for us.

Also, I'm having trouble pasting/copying on this computer... would someone please select the Towering Titans for me?

Thanks!

Vinnie: I tried to take you up on your earlier offer to trade draft spots, but by the time I posted, you had already taken the Dodgers, while I wanted a different team. So I canceled my post. It was up for less than a minute
