14-16 Team League
Head-to-Head with Daily moves
6X6 (R, HR, RBI, AVG, SB, TotB) (W, S, ERA, WHIP, SO, Holds)
Position Eligibility: per Yahoo! Rules
26 Players on roster
STARTERS:
- 1 Catcher
- 1 First Baseman
- 1 Second Baseman
- 1 Third Baseman
- 1 Shortstop
- 1 CI
- 1 MI
- 3 Outfielders
- 1 Utility
- 5 SP
- 3 RP
- 1 P
- 2 DL
-Bench: 6 players
AUCTION:
The Auction: Your team has a $260 yearly budget to purchase your 26 players. At least $1 must be spent on each of the 26 players. Each owner must conclude the auction with a full roster of 26 players conforming to the roster requirements set out above.
Multi-Year Contracts:
Bidding will consist of a $ amount as well as a # of years component. Winning bids will be determined by TOTAL CONTRACT VALUE. Therefore, a bid of “$100/2years” would be outbid by a “$105/3years” bid even though the average yearly salary of the 3 year bid is less than the 2 year bid. Multiyear contracts are capped at 3 years and the bidding must be in multiples of the number of years, (i.e. $21/2years is invalid as this works out to a $10.5 per year salary. Salaries must be in whole numbers).
The $ amount that counts against your $260 yearly cap is the total contract amount per year. Therefore a winning bid of $90/3years would count as $30 of your allowed $260 bid.
Multi-Year Limits and Restrictions:
A player signed to a multi-year contract cannot be dropped but can be traded with the salary obligations also being traded to the new team.
No team can sign multi-year contract players who’s combined yearly salary would be over the $100 keeper salary cap. (In other words, since you can’t drop multi-year players, having 3 players signed for 3 years at $120 ($40/year) would, next year, force you to have 3 players making a combined $120 while we only allow $100 worth of keepers). Just something else to keep track of.
Player Eligibility: Players may be purchased in the auction from Major and Minor League teams, but Minor Leaguers must be available in the Yahoo! player database. Japanese players with MLB contracts are allowed to be taken in the auction. Minor leaguers purchased during the auction will be treated as Major Leaguers, and must fill a roster spot.
Trades During Auction: You may not trade your auction dollars during the draft, but you may trade already drafted players.
IN SEASON:
During the season there is no salary cap. This is to promote trading and allow teams to build up for championship runs, or to go into rebuilding mode.
2009 KEEPERS:
Each year you may keep players who’s total values do not exceed $100. Each kept player will have the following raise in salary.
$1-$10 players receive a $5 raise
$11-$20 players receive a $4 raise
$20+ receive a $3 raise.
The above raises must be taken into account when determining your keeper players cap of $100.
Players who were added as Un-Auctioned Free Agents automatically have a salary of $10.
2010 KEEPERS:
Each year you may keep players who’s total values do not exceed $100. Each kept player will have the following raise in salary.
$1-$10 players receive a $5 raise
$11-$20 players receive a $4 raise
$20+ receive a $3 raise.
The above raises must be taken into account when determining your keeper players cap of $100.
Players who were added as Un-Auctioned Free Agents automatically have a salary of $5.
Multi-Year players salaries will not have any yearly increases.
FREE AGENTS:
Players Eligible: Free agents are players who are currently on the yahoo database. Manage your waiver priority wisely to have a chance at the “next Ryan Braun”. Minor Leaguers cannot be acquired through free agency. Rosters will be frozen after the league playoffs, and may not be changed by any method other than a trade.
Players that are released keep the same salary for the remainder of the year regardless of which team picks them up. Un-Auctioned player pick-ups may be kept for the next year at a salary of $10, ($5 for 2010). Auctioned player pickups may be retained the following year for their original auction price + the applicable raise.
TRADES:
Auction Trades: You may not trade your auction dollars during the draft, but you may trade already drafted players. Minor League draft picks and players on your minor league roster may be traded.
Season Trades: In-season trades must result in balanced rosters for all participating
teams. If a trade is unbalanced, releasing/adding of a player must be stated at the time of the trade. Rosters shall be frozen after the league playoffs, and may not be changed by any method other than a trade.
Offseason Trades: Trades shall be allowed during the offseason following the conclusion of the MLB World Series up until the date which keepers are due. No balancing of rosters is required for offseason trades.
Questionable trades will be voted upon by league. 50% against the trade will be a veto
PLAYOFFS:
6 top teams make the playoffs with #1 and #2 getting a bye.
The final is a 2 week matchup.
FARM TEAMS / MINOR LEAGUES:
Once a Farm Team (FT) player is drafted he’s yours until he reaches his 130th AB or 50th IP at which point he obviously will be listed in the yahoo database. If you haven’t called him up by then he’s a FA.
FT players and picks can be traded but no team can have more than 5 players on their FT at any one point.
Adding a FT player to your regular yahoo roster eliminates him from your FT and allows you to participate in the next FT draft. If you have no open FT spots then you can drop a FT player so as to open up a spot.
FT players cost nothing to keep as long as they are on your FT.
Called up FT players can be protected for $3
