12 team 5 x 5 roto auction style league where all players on roster start everyday.
$300 salary cap and in-season trades cost $5 per player (so at least $10 per trade in total between the two teams) and each free agent pickup/player drop costs you $10 of your cap. Trades are very very rare in this league. Also, when you acquire a player you get all his stats season-to-date and you lose all the stats of the player you drop or trade away. So, roster moves are the desired choice for inproving ones team. You also can keep for one season any player you won at the previous season's auction or picked up as a free agent for a 10 percent premium.
Here is my roster. Please, let me know your thoughts.
C - McCann $6 (keeper)
C - Laird $4
MI - Cano $4 (keeper)
MI - Burke $1
MI - Tulowitzki $1
CI - AROD $47
CI - Ortiz $34
CI - Teixeira $27
CI - Edward Encaracion $2 (keeper)
OF - Dye $3 (keeper)
OF - Milton Bradley $2
OF - Ken Griffey Jr. $1
OF - Luke Scott $1
OF - Elijah Dukes $1
SP - Dan Haren $16 (keeper)
SP - Matt Cain $7 (keeper)
SP - Kelvin Escobar $6 (keeper)
SP - Rich Hill $5
SP - Adam Wainwright $8
RP - Putz $11 (keeper)
RP - Street $39
RP - Francisco Cordero $23
Cash left over for free agent pickups and trades was $51. So, basically I have five free agent moves this season.
Possible keepers for next season: Burke (at $2), Teixeira (at $30), Luke Scott (at $2), Elijah Dukes (at $2), Rich Hill (at $6), Adam Wainwright (at $9) and Francisco Cordero (at $26).
