Auction Roto Keeper Details
Draft Time:
Saturday, March 8th at 1:00pm EST
Appeal to Drop Keeper Deadline:
Friday, March 7th at 1:00pm EST
Commissioner and Co-Commissioner
Zoraster is the commissioner. In the event of any absence, Locke Lamora will take over commissioner duties.
Keeper Setup:
It will be Auction + $5.
We can keep a maximum of
6
players.
Players retained on a team may keep a player for the price they bought him at the auction the year before + $5.
Players acquired off the waiver wire who were NOT drafted may be kept the following year at $5, no matter what the FAAB cost.
Players who were DROPPED by a team and then acquired by another team may be kept at the same price as the original team would have.
Players who were TRADED may be kept at the same rate as the team who traded it to them.
If a player was already kept from the year before, their price will continue to rise $5. So Player X is drafted for $10 in 2013, kept for $15 in 2014, kept for $20 in 2015, etc.
Before the auction next year, I'll ask each team who they want to keep.
Auction Setup:
Everyone will start with
$280
(raised from 260 so that it'll be an average of $10 per roster spot). Nominators will have
30 seconds
to make their nomination so make sure you have your guys queued up. It will be 10 seconds between bids. Yahoo predicts that our auction will take
2 hours and 20 minutes
Rosters:
C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, CI, MI, OFx5, Util, SPx3 RPx2, Px4, BNx6 = 28 players
Corner Infielder means you can play either a 1B or 3B there. Middle Infielder means you can play either a 2B or SS at the position.
Statistics:
Batters Stat Categories: Runs (R), Home Runs (HR), Runs Batted In (RBI), On-base Percentage (OBP), Net Stolen Bases (NSB)
Pitchers Stat Categories: Strikeouts (K), Earned Run Average (ERA), (Walks + Hits)/ Innings Pitched (WHIP), Quality Starts (QS), Net Saves and Holds (NSVH)
Waiver Wire
This will use FAAB with a budget of $100 with continuous waivers. In other words, there are no free agents, everyone not on a team is on the waiver wire. When you pick someone up, you will be asked to enter a bid. The person who bids the highest that day gets the player the following day.
Players
MAY
include FAAB budget (unlimited) OR up to $10 of the budget for the following year's auction (however, no player may put himself lower than $260 or more than $300 for the following season) in a trade if they both EXPLICITLY agree to it by PMing the commissioner.
You are not limited in the number of transactions you make.
Innings and Game Limits
After your pitchers have pitched a total of 1500 innings, no further pitching statistics will be be counted.
For each position, once that position has played 160 games, no further statistics will be counted for that position (outfield is an aggregate 850 games)
Trade Deadline
The trade deadline is August 4th. This is much earlier than the other league's in order to prevent too much tomfoolery with the keepers.
Trade Review
This league is on "commissioner reviews" trades. Trades will be vetoed by the commissioner in the case of suspected collusion, but will not be vetoed on the basis of simple "unfair" trades.
Off Season Trading
From August 4th to the end the season, trades will be locked and the commissioner will not entertain them. Once the season is over, managers may trade players and they may negotiate with money for the next season's draft up to $20 per trade as long as it does not leave either player with more than $320 or less than $240. You may not trade money for the season after next. These off-season trades are trades of the
right to keep
a player at its keeper price. A manager must still pay to keep the player before the next season.
Following Season Keepers
Managers must choose their keepers at least ____ week(s) (unsettled) before the auction by PMing the commissioner. The commissioner will then announce who is being kept and what the final budgets of each team will be.
Rotisserie Scoring
It's real simple: for each of the 10 categories, everyone is ranked first to last. First place in the category gets 10 points, second 9 points, etc. until last place in the category finishes with 1 point. At the end of the season, whoever has the most points wins (maximum being 100 points, minimum 10).
