Best Team of the 70s--team draft and more

PostWed Mar 13, 2019 9:37 pm

I've included the rules of the league for easy reference.

Based on research at Baseball Reference, players were assigned to the team they played with the most from 1970 through 1979. Some minor adjustments were made to ensure each team would have a backup catcher/backup infielders. Here are the rules of the league

Salary Cap: $140 million--
Waivers or Frenzy: Frenzy since you will control all players on the team you select.
DH: This league will use the DH
Team name: Please use the name of the team you select
Ballpark: Please select the ballpark of the team you choose-if you pick the Pittsburgh Pirates, you would choose Three Rivers Stadium.
Trades: Allowed--no restrictions--you control the players so feel free to trade to improve your team.
Roster size: No restrictions beyond normal Strat rules

Players not listed on the roster of the 12 teams selected are not eligible for this league. The only players available to you are the players assigned to the team you select.
There were three player assignments which warrant highlighting:

Julio Cruz was assigned to the Minnesota Twins.
Otto Valez was assigned to the Kansas City Royals
Luis Aparicio was assigned to the Atlanta Braves

The rosters were all reviewed to ensure accuracy——however, please alert me immediately of any issues you encounter. Remember, the only players available to you are the players assigned to the team you select.

DRAFT ORDER:

I'm confused by this. Are the numbers draft order? If so, isn't the East 1-4, and so on?

*Oh, never mind - I think I have 11th pick! :o

I really really wanted to take a different team but being able to use the entire Reds lineup in this higher cap league I just couldn't pull the trigger on it. The starting lineup better shine because the bench is fairly thin as is the rotation.

There is a lot of chat going on here. If we are not careful this could drop off the board. We should get busy making our selections.

Ok, ok, I just want to get to my pick alright.
