Baldelli’s Modern Life X returns for another exciting season, with the league now fully under new management. The league rules have been updated. There is still a little tweaking that needs to be done regarding FAAB / waiver wire transactions, but that will be clarified soon. There are no changes to the scoring categories.
League Information:
Keeper Deadline: Get your keepers in by Thursday, March 12th.
- New this year, you may keep up to three players, but you are not required to keep anyone.
- If you do want to keep a player, send me the player’s name and the dollar value you think they are. I will confirm if the dollar value is correct or incorrect.
Here’s a complete list of player auction values.
Draft Day: Monday, March 16th, 5 PM PST (8 PM EST).
- A reminder that we have switched to an auction draft. This is new for many of us, and so I highly recommend mock drafting.
Dues: Venmo $200 to @Misha-Tenenbaum. I will send you the email invitation to join the league.
- The draft order will be randomly decided after everyone has paid their dues. This happens before divisions are picked.
- Divisions will be picked after everyone has paid their dues.
MLB Opening Day: March 26th
Payouts: These have changed.
- 1st – $1,200; 2nd – $500; 3rd – $200; Best Record – $300; Other Division Winner – $200. Playoff birth $50 (all 8 teams).
- These changes are intended to encourage every manager to fight on until the last day of the season, and to end the era of team yard-sales.
Contact List: Please email me your preferred contact phone number and confirm your email address. We will have more trades if managers can text each other.
Oh, and managers who had players from Astros during the 2019 season will be fined $5 and lose their first draft pick this year. Kidding. I am taking recommendations for the 2021 season rules NOW, so let me know if you have ideas.
PLAY BALL!,
Misha
