    It would be a shame not to do this unique league again, so I am creating this thread to generate some interest.

    This is year four for the 3-MLB-Teams-Per-Owner League!

    Here's how it works... Basically, the league has 10 fantasy teams, and instead of drafting players, each owner drafts 3 MLB teams. 30 MLB teams / 10 owners = 3 MLB teams per owner.

    You get all the players on the 3 teams you end up drafting and use those players to make up your lineup. There is no trading. You can add/drop free agents, but you can ONLY pick up players who are on one of the 3 teams you drafted (I will police this manually).

    So, say you end up drafting the Yankees, Dodgers and Pirates... then your roster will be comprised of only these players for the whole year. The challenge comes with picking 3 MLB teams that fit well together.

    It will be a three round draft. The first two rounds will be regular serpentine style, but the third round will be randomized.

    The scoring system is fantasy points head-to-head, similar to fantasy football scoring. Starting lineups and other details are listed below. Since there is no trading and because lineups are set weekly (not daily), this will be a relatively low-maintenance league.

    If you are interested, post a message here. We'll do the draft here on the BBS, and we'll get it going ASAP once the league is filled up.

    A buddy of mine is interested.

    He said he responded to the thread but I don't see it.

    If he's accepted into the league that would be 8 total.
