Looking for 3 New Mgrs for ChopNation Dynasty II Baseball League for 2010

[OF&S]

.
Let me know if you're interested, but please only take a team if you intend to remain active all season & in future seasons.


We have 3 openings for new mgrs for the 2010 season in the ChopNation Dynasty II Baseball League (assuming Homer claims his team, which I assume he will). This is the 2nd year of this dynasty league; however, the league was previously a keeper league and this will be the 6th year of competition for most of the teams in the league.

Once the new managers have been determined, an off-line draft will be held between those new managers (via email, PM, IM, however you guys wish to conduct it) where they will divide the rosters of the 3 teams from 2009 which are not being reclaimed for 2010 in order to balance out each of the teams & so not to provide any one new mgr w/ an advantage over the other two.

The league consists of 14 teams w/ 30 man rosters, 5 DL positions, 45 minimum IP per week & a limit of 50 moves once the season starts (preseason moves will be reset to zero upon the start of the season).


Below is a list of the players that will be available in that off-line draft.

There's definitely some talent in there to work with...seasoned vets, guys in their prime & up & coming prospects.

Yes, it is a Yahoo league. Welcome aboard. Hopefully, we'll get two more signed up soon, so that the three of you can go ahead and draft from the players listed. More on the league will follow, but in the other thread.

Beaver from my other league is going to claim one as well. He's having a hard time setting up an account.

[Dabeaver]

Beaver checking in, when we do this draft will it be snake or 123, 123

[warefreak]

Bournagains (not sure if he'll use that name here) is claiming the other team. We should be all filled up!

Looks like college football programs need to look into hiring Ware Freaks for recruiting. Thanks T for going out to find people to fill the league. You done good.

Welcome aboard Dabeaver.

As for the draft format, we've always used a snake draft for our baseball drafts, but I'm going to let the 3 of you determine that. Let me know what you decide and I will then post the draft order which I will determine through a random number generator.

Since Ware Freaks recruited all 3 of you, I assume that you may all know each other already through other leagues or personally perhaps, so I will also let you 3 also decide where you want to conduct your draft (via email, IM, etc...), but I would like the draft results sent to me either by posting it to this thread or sent to me via email. Try to complete the draft ASAP, but don't feel like it has to be done today or tomorrow. Yahoo won't open the leagues for a few more weeks, though none of you will be able to particpate in any pre-season trading until the your draft is complete.

Once the results are confirmed by all 3 of you, I will update the League thread to include your rosters.

There should be 102 players in the draft pool listed above. Please draft until all 102 have been selected. The rosters are only 30, but you'll have rights to those players before the season starts (or until the deadline for final cuts which will be shortly before the season starts...more on this once the league is up & running on Yahoo).

FYI - I sent you & Secondsaber87 a PM w/ the email address you can send the draft results to.

All three are extremely active in the other league, daBraves. They are all pretty darn good too.

Should be fun.

Taking over the last team. Hope this league is ready for a fantasy MASTER!:D

[jamminHANES]

Still an open spot?

Still an open spot?
Not in this league Jammin, but we have three slots open in the Keeper IV league if you are interested. That league is a 6-keeper league, and not a dynasty such as this league.
