BOTB: 1965-present REBOOT DETAILS

The league will move from 1947-present, to 1965-present. That means that it will mirror the draft settings that gbacci sets for 1965-present Fav Team Leagues. This means that the Cubs, Yankees, Guardians, Dodgers will move from 3 seasons here to 4 seasons. IF gbacci ever changes the seasons allowed for any franchise for 1965-present, IT WILL affect what it allowed here.

To begin season 1, sheikyerboudi will conduct a random order generator to determine our season 1 draft order.

MINOR RULES/SETTINGS ADJUSTMENTS
-major league rosters will change from 25 to 26, minors then go from 6 to 5. So final roster will still be 31.
-use HR's allowed for pitchers will be activated
-keeps surprise bunts at balanced
-we will continues to enforce our offseason deadlines, 2 WEEKS to build your team, then 1 WEEK for drops/trades before opening day
-we will continues with a waiver periods at day 10, with 24 hr sim period in effect for all of us to submit claims

The biggest changes will be to PLUS players allowed and park effects.

There will be 2 park effect options per franchise, one based on the last 3 years of combined effects, and one historically based somewhere from 1965-present, to provide an option for each owner. It will be up to each owner, each season, to request that change.
