ok, it has been quiet on the low cap end so I'll start up a league. In this league, you will try to create the worst possible team made up of players from 1975 to 2000. Once we are full, the teams will be randomly redistributed to the owners. Thus, you will not get the team you created. That one will be gifted to someone else. However, we still want to encourage some managerial skill. We want to see if you can turn your screwed team into a contender.
Thus, you must spend at least $59, 000, 000 and your roster must:
contain 2 players whose primary position is 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, and C (so 10 total players at the Infield positions). You must have 5 primary OFs. If a guy plays DH, he must have a primary position in the field.
You must have 10 pitchers.
Minimum of 4500 Plate Appearances (PAs) for position players
Minimum of 1125 Innings Pitched
To give you a chance, we will have random below average AAA (2 Pitchers and 6 position players)
No clones
Late as possible on the transaction deadline
No trades, injuries on.
Ballparks from the era only.
No waiver wire
Come and join the fun and let me know if you have questions. League number is MLB143311 (hoping for standard 24 team league)
Oh, and this is not really enforceable but please keep the team names safe for work. A place name and a mascot always works but if you go in a different direction, please keep it clean, even if you are gifting this to another poor guy
