Don helped me resolve my Canada SS shortage with a half decent one from 1930.
So I'll stick with Canada.

I don't have enough money this month to get another sim team, so I'll have to pass on the DR.

*** just so I know who else to cut from my team, what is our league's salary cap, or are you still figuring that out?

League salary cap will be $130M

I'll try México but need to know if I can use players like Jorge Cantú, who was born in Texas but played with team Mexico in the WBC because he has dual nationality, as Adrian Gonzalez or Garciaparra.

Yes that is totally fine with me. If they played for them in the WBC they are eligible to be used

There is a problem with WIS.
Even though I have a player that also plays SS the system won't let me draft it as SS.
So if WIS won't allow me to draft without a starting SS what solution do you propose?
In the meantime, I reduced a player from 12M to I think 7M, and removed extras, to where I am now under the 130M total cap by 49k.

You can draft anyone with a SS rating at SS if you check "Include Secondary Positions."

Do you guys think we can get 20 or 24 teams in, or should I make the league with 16 teams? We have 10 in right now

If you need to take a SS from earlier than 1930, that is okay. The sole purpose of the 1930 rule is just to ensure there are no deadball pitchers in the league

Thanks. Now I'm 382k under, for now.
The SS player is from before Winnipeg won its 1st Stanley Cup (1896). I know, different sport. LOL

I'm in no hurry.

Let's try for 24 teams and see what happens.

Awh, how come? :(

I will happily field Team Japan if you get this going.

I like the idea of trying for 20/24 before going with 16. I'm also OK to wait some.
