$205 buy in, 14 Teams, 100% payout, all funds held by Fantrax. Rosters consist of 35 minors, 25 keepers, 23 active spots and 10 bench. All money is paid out except the Fantrax fee (1st 50% 2nd 25% 3rd 15% 4th 10%). No FAAB, just standard waivers, and trades are allowed at any point for minors, vets, or keepers.
Roster is comprised of: C, C, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, MI, CI, OF (6), UT - SP (5) RP (2)
Team has 5 picks in first 3 rounds, 8 in first 6 rounds...rd/pk (1/4, 2/4, 2/14, 3/1, 3/4, 4/4, 5/2, 6/1) adding those 10 drafted guys would enable you to compete right away or you could flip them to get more keepers and build a dynasty. The draft has stars from the first couple rounds, solid guys the next couple, and then decent guys for the next three... When keepers get cut (usually because they were late bloomers) they go to the draft forever.
Top Five Round Available Draft Talent: Kluber, Cano, Bautista, Gomez, Pujols, Cueto, Lester, Arrieta, Robertson, Hamels, Lee, Britton, Beltre, Werth, Harrison, Ortiz, Gordon, Melky, Carrasco, Crash Davis, Weaver, Rollins, LaRoche, Papelbon, Yadier, Fister, Choo, Gio, Nathan, Cishek, Kazmir, Murphy, JD Martinez, Hughes, Keuchel, Uhera, Span, Dickey, Kendrick, Perkins, Pierce, Moss, Tillman, Lackey, Peralta, Morneau, Utley, Ervin, Clippard, Castilla, McCarthy, Fiers, Andrew Miller, Cain, Benoit, Hardy, Aramis, JJ Hardy, Cecil, K Rod, Rondon, Headley, Peavy, Phillips, Tori Hunter, Hawkins, etc... As you can see, those picks would result in being able to contend immediately.
Team already has numerous LEGIT keepers (HG) including Jorge Soler, LucCroy, Granderson, Pedro Alvarez, Leyons Martin, Betances, Jacob deGrom, Miley, Hutchinson, Niese, Simen, solid high upside keepers Nick Franklin, Wilmer Flores, LoMo, Mercer, Jose Ramirez, Chase Anderson, TJ House and many others. Other minors guys who should contribute this season include: Beane just traded for Sean Nolin and Rafel Montero and Steve Matz are set to compete for the Mets rotation in Spring are just two examples of the young talents that is on the cusp.
Our keeper setup is the only wrinkle, when one of your minors guys (from your 35 minors bench) hits 130ABs or 50IP they become "Homegrown" and thus keepers forever, regardless of whether you trade them or not. If they are dropped, however, they enter the draft and can never be kept again. All the rest, scoring, roster, etc is extremely standard. The one team available has TONS of early picks that can supplement the HG guys and win right now or flipped for prospects/keepers if you want to build a dynasty as they hold A LOT of value, especially right now this close to our draft being little more than a month out. You can also trade prospects for more picks or keepers, the farm on this team is a massive asset.
The minors is already loaded as well, all of which become keepers when they hit 50IP or 130ABs. Standout farmhands include: Appel, Conforto, Schwarber, Gary Sanchez, Dian Toscano, Mallex Smith, Trea Turner, Tim Anderson, Forrest Wall, Eduardo Rodriguez, Reynaldo Lopez, Steve Matz, Sean Nolin.... Eduardo, Appel, and Schwarber are three of the Top 25 prospects in all of baseball.
If unsure about minors here is an excellent article to get you right up to speed, also, if you join I can send your several other great links for similar write ups: http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/the-fang ... pect-list/
