League Rules

League polls will be used for all decisions regarding changes to the league or league rules. If I didn't cover something here please let me know!

This is an active fast moving league. If you're not someone who checks their teams at least once a day this may not be the league for you. You may miss tasks, games, and draft picks.

THIS LEAGUE RUNS ON EASTERN TIME!

---This is a 20 team league with 4 5 team divisions.

ROSTERS: Each team has a 26 man roster with 10 minor league spots.

PROGRESSIONS/PLAYERS: League starts with the 2019 player pool. Random players will be created for all draft pools moving forward. I want to do something different than the typical progress until 28, plateau until 32, and regress at 33. With that being said, players will progress until the age 32 in this league and start to regress at 33 with NO PLATEAU. Players can play as long as they are signed. If a player over 40 gets released they will be retired. Free Agents who turns 40 will be retired if they are not selected In that off-season?s draft or signed before the corresponding season starts. Every player in the league will be set at "C" (Classic) progression. As of season 2 each team is allowed to ?tag? 2 players with S ratings.

AWARDS: There are 5 awards in this league. MVP, CY, HR King, SB King, and Strikeout King. If a player wins this award they will be given the option to receive either a fire point or a .5 boost to their Dwar. CY winners will receive the choice between a fire point or plus 5 to their stamina. If an owner has a player who wins an award and doesn't submit their choice for which boost they want then they'll miss out and their player will receive no boost!

CONTRACTS+BUDGETS: Each team will be given a budget of 150 million dollars. You can sign up to 20 players. Teams will be given a permanent 10 million raise if they win a world series. If a team goes over budget they will be given 5 days to correct through trade. If an owner can't find a way to shed the excess budget then I will be forced to remove a player and send to the free agent pool. CONTRACTS MUST BE SIGNED BEFORE THE CONCLUSION OF THE WORLD SERIES.

TRADES: Trades are unlimited and there will be no trade deadline. (This can be changed if the league wants to do so and it passes league poll). I will not intervene in any trade. If you see a trade you feel is lopsided you can say so in the chat box or message me privately. If a trade comes into question by a fellow owner said trade will be put to league poll on whether or not it gets reversed. Draft picks and cash can be traded as well.

PLAYOFFS: 8 teams will make the playoffs, the 4 division winners and 4 wildcards. The 4 division winners and the next best 4 teams will play in an eight seed format. Seeds 1-4 will be Division winners ordered by record and Seeds 5-8 will be the next best 4 teams ordered by record. Yes, there will be seasons where the 6th seed may have a better record than the 3 seed. It'll make things more interesting. As with everything else, if the owners want changes made or want to do a different format just throw it out there in the chat box and we'll put it to the poll!

OFF-SEASON: Once the World Series concludes the off-season will start. All un-signed players will be removed from rosters and sent to free agent pool. There will be a 12 round draft each season. We will slow draft the first 7 rounds and live draft the last 5. Each team will be given 6 hours to pick. The clock will stop at midnight EST and resume at 9 a.m. EST. Teams can still pick during this time frame but time won't be held against an owner during this time. If teams still have needs after the draft they'll have to fill them in FA. FA will open right after the draft and is first come first served.
