  • 15-Team Keeper League Has 2 Openings

    A 15-team keeper league I run with some quality RJers in it (Cavebird, Frae, mgwiz, Controller Jacobs, yours truly) has two team openings. Here are the particulars:

    - $100 entry fee, every dollar paid out
    - league site CBS, which is comped to us by fellow leaguemate and CBS columnist Will Brinson
    - keep 4 active and 2 ML players
    - 5x5 with OBP
    - auction online using CBS, date TBD

    Once two owners are found, we will do a disbursement draft among the two new owners to make it fair. The top potential keepers are:
    - Albies 15
    - Schwarber 12
    - Royce Lewis ML
    - Hader 12
    - Matz 1
    - Soroka 1
    - Garver 2
    - Wong 1
    - Chapman 21
    - Lindor 33
    - Edman 5
    - J. Martinez 1
    - Boyd 2
    - E. Rodriguez 15

          Ideally other keeper lists to assess how big of an uphill climb these teams are facing.

          Then, how the distribution draft would be conducted (I'd think a snake format might be fair).

          Additionally, is there a reserve draft, and if so where the new teams would slot in.

          You noted that 2 ML players are allowed, but I only see 1 here split among 2 teams. Which is fine, but making sure I'm reading that right.

          Why did the last 2 owners leave? What's trading look like?

            I haven't examined the rest of the teams, but with only 4 keepers, most teams have plenty to choose from.

            It will be a snake format for the distribution draft.

            We eliminated the reserve draft and now draft all players in the auction.

            These teams must have activated or traded the other rookies.

            One owner who left was my friend. He loves hyperactive leagues and this wasn't it, which is what I'm hoping will change. The other owner, I'm not sure, I didn't know him.

                    Hey Revo, I'm looking at the two teams that are going to be split and I'm seeing some players who are not listed above. For example, just for reference Felipe Vazquez is on the Acuna Moncada team as a 11 (x1) contract. If I was dumb enough to want him, is he available? i.e. is everyone on those two teams available? If so there are a couple that you don't have on your list that I'd include in the top 14 personally.

                    Related question - Albies shows as a $5B on the CBS site, but you have him at 15 here.

                    **Edited to add, ok it looks like X designates as non-keepable - how about someone like Jean Segura $27A. Not a good contract for him, but is he actually available for the disbursement draft?

                      Is there both a reserve draft and a ML draft? When do they take place?

                        B probably means it's going up by $10 for 2020

                        For comparison, my team has:
                        - Fernando Tatis $5A ($5B for 2020)
                        - Gleyber Torres $1B ($11X1 for 2020)
                        - Alex Bregman $25X2 ($35X3 for 2020)

                        X3 is the max, must release after that

                        If you see a low salary with an X contract(with no number after it), that probably means the player was picked up on a $0 FAAB bid, and once that happens the player can not be kept.
                        Example on my team is
                        - Sean Manaea $0X - can't be kept
                        - Mark Canha $1X - can't be kept (he was $1 on another team, they dropped him, I picked him up at $0 which X'd him)
                        people called me an idiot for burning popcorn in the microwave, but i know the real truth. - nullnor

                          CJ is correct.

                          Also, you can pick (once we have the dispersal draft) any of the players on those teams. My list was just the highlights.

                            When are keepers due in this one? A week before the auction?
