As you can see, there are many players from teams other than the Brewers, which is fine. That's how we set it up. Further, I have claim to all players on the Brewers; 40-man roster who are NOT otherwise taken in this league.

What I am working on -- and what I need to settle before seeking new owners for the league -- is exactly how we are going to bring those owners on board.

Here are the options:

1. They simply accept one of the teams that is available (at this moment, it looks like we will have 6 of those: Num3er0's White Sox, JoshRedcay's Cardinals, Ted's Orioles, Curt's Red Sox, The Giants, and The Dodgers). This would be the easiest on the league as a whole and yet probably the hardest to fill with the right owners.
   
   
2. New owners get to select the MLB team of their choice, with rights to all players on that team's 40-man roster EXCEPT those otherwise taken in the league. They then participate in a draft (primarily among all new owners) for those players who remain unattached.

Other ideas?

[OutfieldGrass]

I would be interested in joining.

[Mudge]

I would be interested in joining.

Good. Once I establish the parameters, I'll let you know.

[Mudge]

Here's what we've got so far.

First things first: Reduce you rosters to 25, which means you've got to activate guys on the DL (in bold) and drop guys if necessary to make room for them.
