New League: Major League Moneyball

Sox2013 · 12-30-2013, 11:31 PM

Full League Name (Initials): Major League Moneyball (MLM)
Forum URL: ML Moneyball Forums.
League Website: MLM Website
Commissioner(s) OOTP Forum Username: Sox2013
Email Address: scdrake@liberty.edu
OOTP Version: OOTP 14
Game Needed?: No, but I would prefer you have it.
Players: Modern rosters, but updated as of August 1, 2013.
# Of Teams: 30
Exports Days & Deadlines: TBD, but most likely there will be a minimum of four sims a week.
League Time Per Sim: 3 days. I know it's short, but I want to allow GMs to react to injuries, waivers, etc., without changing too many rules.
First Season: 2013, using starting rosters as of August 1, 2013.
Current Season: 2013
Rules & Settings: Standard settings and rules except as follows:
1) No cash maximum.
2) Ratings are 1-100 wherever possible.
3) Ratings weight is 20%, current year stats are 60%, previous year stats are 15%.
4) Amateur draft is 20 rounds, with players generated for 50 rounds.
5) National media contract is based on team market size
6) Entire revenue is available.
7) Twelve independent league free agents generated per year instead of 6.
8) Waiver period is 4 days to allow GMs to view waivers and make claims.
9) Any rule changes will be proposed by the commissioner or the GMs. If the affect the MLB rules, not the mechanics of the MLM game, they will be discussed and voted on by the GMs, with the commissioner having a tie-breaking vote.

Please post interest below. I'll take players on a first come, first served basis. I need at least fifteen commitments to justify spending the money on a server (All Sim Baseball or Tuckermade) and starting the game. So post if you're interested.
