This is a simple annual [b:39f229f925]5 players[/b:39f229f925] keeper league. We keep a minimum of 1 pitcher / 1 hitter.

5 players to keep based on the previous year roster at the end of the season.

We can post our keepers by email or on this chat thread.

The pre-season transactions will be posted on this chat thread but not the regular season trades that will continue to work the classic way on the game engine.

After the pre-season trade deadline (june 10th), you'll receive by email the complete list of the 12 managers keepers.

For the draft, we place our keepers last in the list and we draft 20 new and unprotected players.

[b:39f229f925]In order to get going without any problem[/b:39f229f925], [u:39f229f925]It's REALLY important to only pick players available (NOT IN THE 60 KEEPERS).[/u:39f229f925]

*** If a manager pick a protected player (a keeper), he has to give that player back the sooner possible (before the free agents picks) to his proprietary. As a penality, the other manager has the right to give whoever he wants in return. ***


Engine parameters for the regular season:

- We use the newest Unleashed player set;
100 millions $ salarial cap;
- Dh rule ON;
- Free Agents period weighted;
- Drop penality 10%;
- Everyone can pick the stadium of their choice (there could be more than one team with the same stadium)
- The divisions are made with a randomizer run ([b:39f229f925]NEW[/b:39f229f925]).


[u:39f229f925]FRENCH TRADUCTION OF THE MAJOR POINTS IN THE RULES:
[/u:39f229f925]
- Nous n'annoncerons que les transactions de pré-saison sur ce lien ainsi que les joueurs protégés;

- Il faut placer nos 5 protections à la fin de nos 25 sélections et non plus au début. Avec les problèmes qu'on a eu l'an dernier et ce que Strato m'ont donné comme réponse, ça devrait être plus sécuritaire et personne ne peut être désavantagé;

- [b:39f229f925]Il est toutefois encore très important d'être vigilant de ne pas sélectionner un des 60 joueurs protégés;[/b:39f229f925]

- Si malheureusement cela devait arriver, même si ce n'était pas volontaire, le gérant ''fautif'' se doit de retourner le joueur à son propriétaire le plus rapidement possible, avant le choix des Free Agents. L'autre gérant peut donner le joueur de son choix en retour.

- On peut prendre le stade de notre choix;

- Les divisions se feront par le biais du Randomizer [b:39f229f925](nouveauté)[/b:39f229f925]

YIKES!!! Hail to coachchef for having 4 of top players in the game and a Cy Young award winner. These 5 guys will eat up about half of the team's salary....but who cares! Those 4 guys in the middle of any lineup seems deadly.
Hopefully the randomizer keeps me away from coachchef's division this coming season. :shock:

Funny, I was going to say the same about YOUR 5, Kev.
