* All communication will be done on the forums. No emails. Form posts/threads and DMs will be the only official form of league communications.
General Information
- No Injuries - That's right, injuries have been disabled for the entire league.
- No Manual ST - No manual spring training allocations will be entered. The game will handle this.
- Trades with computer owned teams will be allowed inside the normal trading windows. Trades must only involve players, no draft picks. Players in the CPU team's LOW minors cannot be involved in trades. Trades can be for only 1 player on a CPU roster at a time. Owners may send multiple players but may only receive one back from the CPU team. If the CPU owned team accepts the trade, the commissioner will have final say before formal approval and the moving of players.
League Schedule
- League simulation will begin with opening day and be run through until the amateur draft.
- Amateur draft will be held via the forums.
- League simulation will be run until on or about August 15th.
- League simulation will be run until the start of the playoffs.
- League simulation will be run through the end of the playoffs.
- Start new season button will be pressed.
- Players will retire.
- Free Agent Draft bidding will take place.
- ST will be run.
Roster Moves
- The computer will reassign players and set lineups prior to the first simulation. (between ST and opening day)
- Owners will modify rosters and all lineups/pitching rotations prior to opening day.
- Owners will be able to make roster and lineup changed during all simulation breaks.
- Rosters must contain at least 10 ACT pitchers.
- Teams must use 5 man rotations until the last sim of the season that occurs on/around August 15th of each year.
These rules are intended to make league administration simple and quick. The intent is to run through seasons as quickly as we can, while giving the team owners at least a little control over their personnel. Think of it as being the General Manager and you are in control of player acquisitions but not the every day lineups or roster moves.
