40M Low Cap with Future Blacklist - 13 IN Topic

I'm going to try and bring back the 40M leagues. There hasn't been one in at least a year and that's a shame. If you've never done one, give it a shot. There is a lot more strategy both in drafting the team and managing it when compared to a "Stuff all the best players you can on your roster in this 255M league!" You will have to play with fatigues hitters, fatigued pitchers, or both. How you manage that is up to you!

Basic rules
No DH
No WW
No trades

Stadiums are exclusive. Post your choice when you sign up, or when you're ready to choose
No exclusive players will be chosen (this is a break from the last incarnation of the league)
I'm also going to change the blacklisting a bit. I believe before it was if a player appears on three or more rosters, they are blacklisted for the next three seasons. I will keep that but with a slight change. For each team over three a player appears on, the blacklist is extended an extra year. They are blacklisted for four seasons if they are on four times, five seasons for five teams, etc. I don't think this will make a huge difference but it just seemed like a potentially interesting twist.

The plan is to make this a 24 team league, but if it is slow to fill (as these leagues often strangely are, we can discuss reducing the league size)

League number will be posted when 12 people sign up (at that point I will also choose my stadium)

Is "Sacco" supposed to be "Safeco?" That's what I am putting down, please correct me if it was supposed to mean something else

Yeah, it was supposed to be Safeco but I am not married to it. If someone else wants it, I would be happy to switch.

I noticed I didn't put any year restrictions on players. I guess I will leave it that way, unless someone objects strongly
