Pro Quality. Fan Perspective.
Around SBN: The Record of Wrongs: Vanderbilt Commodores

I looked around, couldn't find whether this was frowned upon or not. I know in some communities it is so thought I'd post it out of the way but still hope some people see it.

The BNSL is entering it's 3rd year and has one opening that needs to be filled immediately. Dues are $8 and are only used to cover hosting fees with all other costs covered by the Executive Committee (EC).

The team we need to have filled is the Dodgers. Just two seasons ago, the Dodgers won 95 games so definitely has some talent. A few of the players from the active roster are Chad Billingsley, Jonathan Broxton, Russell Martin, Mark Teixeira, and Matt Kemp. On the prospect side, you would inherit Carlos Carrasco, Casey Kelly, Michael Montgomery, Aaron Hicks, and Ryan Westmoreland to name just a few. So, as you can see, there is plenty of talent at both levels for the new GM to take the team in either direction with $20+ million to spend on FA.

Just a few quick details about the league:

- 30 GMs (one per MLB team)
- A $150 million cap
- Revenue Sharing (20%)
- 25 and 40 man rosters (75 total players)
- Player options, long-term contracts, arbitration, and free agency (a 3 tier process with comp picks and home town discount)
- An amateur draft held in June (currently 7 rounds) and a Rule V draft in the winter (2 weeks from now)
- An all-star game in the middle of the season and awards at the end of the year

If you are interested, please e-mail me at bnsimleagueATgmailDOTcom or my personal e-mail located in my profile so we can discuss the league and team. We are looking for GMs with a good deal of experience with fantasy based games and knowledge of both the MLB and MiLB levels. It really is a fun experience if you haven't tried a sim league before. With 40-man rosters, player options, Rule V draft, etc, It is a good deal different than fantasy baseball and does take some adjusting to but most people I've talked with that have done both find it a more challenging and enjoyable experience.

Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.

Can you spot the five guys NOT in the Hall of Fame? It's easy, I separated 'em for ya. :)

Here's the full post about guys elected to the Hall of Fame primarily for their defense. Guys like Brooks Robinson, Ozzie Smith, Bobby Wallace, John Ward, and Bid McPhee stand up as definite HOFers, with many others worthy of debate (and a couple aren't worth any debate at all).

I almost made it through the whole post without comparing some HOFers to our friends Bill Dahlen, Lou Whitaker, Bobby Grich, Alan Trammell, and Ron Santo. Almost.
