    I'm looking for a couple more managers to sign up for a yahoo league. This is not your standard league. Before we begin, I am having each manager pick their favorite team. I will place every starter from that team onto your roster using the offline draft tool in the league. We will then draft the remaining players offline via the message board. Each manager will get 24 hours to make their selection once their turn comes up. We will draft based on the 2003 record of the team selected, 3 picks per round. So if anyone picks the Tigers they are guaranteed the first 3 picks.

    Other than that it is standard 5x5 roto. The following teams have already been selected.

    Astros
    Cubs
    Yankees
    Red Sox
    Mariners
    Blue Jays
    Cardinals
    Padres
    Angels

    Thanks, and good luck.

    That's a pretty interesting concept. However, it must suck going into the season already knowing who is going to win. Even with the 3-pick draft, there is no way anyone will be able to beat the Yankee team. The Sox might have a chance, although it's very doubtful. Also, if someone hadn't picked San Diego, the Angels might have had a shot, since they would have had the first three picks and could have added Helton, Gagne and Soriano (or one of the Oakland pitchers) to an already decent lineup.



    If anyone is running a straight-up roto league, I'd be interested, but I think I'll pass on this one.
