1 The entry fee will be $25-$50..
2. Draft Day will be held on (TBD). All owners need to be present unless pre-arranged with the commissioner.
3. The first 25 Rounds will be �human� picking and the computer AI will automatically select the last five.
4. The first 10 rounds will have a 1-minute time limit for selecting your players.
5. The next 15 will have a 1�-minute time limit.
6. If you do not select a player within the allotted time the computer AI will select for you. No exceptions excluding cases of computer glitches.
Note: Prior to the draft each owner will receive a comprehensive list of all players eligible to be drafted. This will include historical batting, hitting, and pitching as well as 5 simulated season of batting, hitting, and pitching. Also, an average of the 5 Sim seasons will be distributed. It is important to review this data and come prepared to the draft.
Rosters
1. Each team will have a 30-man roster. These are all active players and there is no reserve.
2. Each manager will be required to complete a �Create Team Form�. This will be provided to the commissioner prior to the season starting and will be the device in which weekly roster updates will be completed.
3. The DH will be used for all teams.
4. Lineups - You can create up to two lineups in DMB. One for batters vs. left-handed pitchers and one for batters vs. right handed pitcher. Complete this section of the form. Also be sure to include the player's position on this section.
5. Pitching Rotation - Complicated. Here you will be able to define your starting rotation, your starters usage rate (1), spot starters, mop up role, long relief, setup men, and closers. Only the starting rotation is required but it is highly recommended to fill out this section completely!
6. Positional Depth Charts - I am kidding right? No, DMB lets you create depth charts for each position. This is how the computer will make substitutions when players get injured or are rested. This section is not required but is highly recommended once again. At least make it an effort to fill out the pinch-hitting roles.
7. Managerial Tendencies - This section will determine how you want the computer to manager for you. It includes Offense, Pitching, Pinch Hitting, and Defensive categories.
