We have 2 openings in a unique weekly 12 team (5x5) Mixed dynasty league that will be entering its 12th year and has had a very low turnover rate. The annual buy-in is $100. The league format is very conducive to rebuilding and in fact we have a couple of instances of teams going from “worst-to-first” in 1 to 2 years (and vice versa). The league employs roster slots as its main currency. By design, rosters are smaller (34 for teams that were in the playoffs the prior year, 36 for non-playoff teams) and there are no DL spots. We start 22 players (13 hitters, 9 pitchers) each week. The 12 to 14 “reserve” slots can be filled by any combination of MLB, minor league, amateur or international players. Teams have won this league by eschewing prospects and loading its bench with MLB talent and depth against injuries. Teams have won this league by rebuilding and loading their reserve slots with prospects. Teams have won with a blended approach. There is very active trading in this league and roster decisions are “tough” to make.
Since we have to fill 2 teams that were non-playoff teams in 2015 we will be using the following approach:
1) The 2 new owners will “draft” their new teams.
2) The player pool for such “draft” will be from 3 sources --- a) the combined rosters of Dirt Dog’s and Fort Worth (the 2 vacated teams), b) any free agent players (MLB, minors, amateurs) not already on a team’s roster and c) three unprotected players from each of the other 10 teams, provided that Freaks would only be subject to losing 1 unprotected player (since Dirt Dog's had a better record than Freaks) and all other teams could lose a maximum of 2 of its 3 unprotected players
3) Each new owner will draft a roster of 36 players
If you are interested (email me at poechsli@cox.net) we will email you a copy of the league rules, provide with the rosters for the vacated teams and even allow for temporary access to the leagues CBS website.
