90s Real Franchise League - Draft in ILC forum

PostThu Aug 23, 2018 8:44 pm

I went through every carded player in the 90s game on baseball-reference.com and gave him the team he played the most years for between 1990-1999. If there was a tie in the number of years played for a team I used total games played in the decade for those teams as the tie-breaker (with a very few exceptions for fairness). After giving every player a team and then sorting by team I quickly saw that Florida and Colorado had less players than any other franchise and a few franchises were just short of the 90s game minimums of 2 catchers, 5 SP, 4 RP only and minimum of 10 total pitchers. What I did was to distribute the FLA and COL players around to the other teams to take care of minimums and to give the better players to teams that needed it. These FLA and COL players are now full-fledged members of their new teams. That leaves 26 real teams (TB and ARI only started in 1998 so are not considered in this league).

I would love to have a 24 team league but more realistically we will just begin with a 12 team league and if everyone would like to have a second league from the undrafted franchises after the first league ends then we can do that too. All franchises have between 17-26 hitters and 10-16 pitchers on their roster depending on the franchise. When you sign up I can email you with the full rosters if you either post your email or send it to me via PM. Just keep in mind that these rosters will have star players and low value guys that will have to be used much like real baseball. DON'T EXPECT A TYPICAL ROSTER OF ALL 5M+ PLAYERS for your starting players. Here are the rules:

100M DH frenzy (no waivers as it is not needed) drop penalties 5-10-20%
Divisions will be: First 4 selected teams in the East, next 4 in the Central and last 4 in the West.
After 12 people sign up I will ask for someone not in the league to run a randomizer to get our franchise draft order.
You must use the ballpark associated with your franchise. i.e. If you pick Boston then you must use Fenway.
The only players allowed in this league are ones assigned to the 12 franchises that are drafted, as listed on the official rosters that I will email to everyone. All other players are ineligible.
Trades are allowed. You can trade any of your controlled players on or off your roster. Be your own GM!
Let me know if I missed anything.
