Introducing the -
League View Senators F2P Theme Team
Forget the Washington Senators - this team has the TRUE Senators. Equal representation for all teams! Roster will be based on the 24 MLB teams in the league circa 1972 - and also tacking on a 25th spot for the Rockies/Marlins/DBacks/Rays/Blue Jays/Mariners wildcard. Cards selected will be a mix of live and historical cards as I see fit.

My house rules - each player card MUST feature the designated team on the card front and the card position must match exactly a specific role I've laid out below. I drew the 25 roles at random for each of the 25 teams, and I will have to adhere to this configuration for ALL of OOTP 20.
I won't be buying packs for this team, just spending earned PP on the AH to fit my structure. Will be using the free packs and entry pool period to get this team configured to meet my criteria, likely with mostly low-end cards.
Plan is that, once I'm establishing,to check in quickly once a day to see how the team is doing and maybe do a bit of AH shopping based on the PP situation. Goal is to have fun building the team - shooting for some expensive cards - and winning is a plus if it happens.
So I'm dreaming about McGwire for that Cardinals DH spot, and Clemens for the Red Sox SP. Ooh and Carlton for the Phillies SP.
Now if I were to pull one of those cards tonight I would poop a brick! And also, I will certainly be open to community suggestions along the way for player adds!
