** All The Decades Theme. (sign up phase)

PostMon Mar 16, 2020 9:08 am

Because we’re all being advised to try and stay inside and away from others as much as possible I figured why not start a new 5 season theme to distract some of us?

The premise: each manager drafts 1 of the 18 franchises that played in the 1961 season. Using our chosen franchise we’ll play the 07-14 set, followed by the 90’s 80’s 70’s and finishing with the 60’s.

• There will be no special draft for any players.
• No players can be saved from one season to the next.
• The autodraft will be used for each season to help balance some of the teams. A player must have at least 1 card in the set assigned to your respective team to be drafted. In the case of the 07-14 card set you MUST use the card assigned to your team. (ex. Jim Thome has cards from many teams. If you have Minnesota you must use his Minnesota card).
• $100 million, dh, use a ballpark your team played in (wherever possible).

I’ve probably forgotten a rule or two so I’ll make it up as we go along.

The 18 teams that this theme would use are as follows

Angels, Athletics, Braves, Cardinals, Cubs, Dodgers, Giants, Indians, Orioles, Phillies, Pirates, Rangers/Senators, Red Sox, Reds, Tigers, Twins, White Sox, Yankees.

you'd be picking 1 to stick with through all decades played. 07-14, 90's, 80's, 70's and 60's

autodraft and waivers will be run. whoever has Player X as a higher priority, or however the draft engine decides.
