Mock Drafts : Chat

I will be busy this week but I have a week and a half until I start my new job. I am down for a shorter draft...
 
Baseball or Football?
 
I did text Mookie, Ritz, Milk and Stoke
 
Apparently @Centerfield17 doesn't miss us cuz he's out!

Orlando is out as well, he's in the process of moving.

I think Titz is in.
 
IDEAS

Lefty-Right Draft
You draft one team that is all lefty and one that is all righty (switch can be either) Winners of each face each other in the World Series.

American-National Draft
You draft one team from the AL and one from the NL. Winners of each face each other in the World Series.

Phase-Bucket Draft
You draft one team using different phases and one using buckets. Winners of each face each other in the World Series.

Decades Draft
You draft one team that played in the 40's, 60's, 80's and another team that playes in the 50's, 70's, 90's. Winners of each face in the World Series. (players first game played determines their decade)

Lefty Righty Draft sounds cool. Would that also apply to pitchers?
 
Those aren't the only options, just a couple ideas off the top of my head while I pretend to work.
 
Maybe not for this draft, but what about an expansion draft.

-We pick one singular year, so for example 1998. All eligible players for this draft must have played 1 game in 1998.
-We do a two round draft in which the GM's have to select one NL and one AL team.
-Each GM MUST retain 5 players on each team. Can be any combination of players. Every other player is thrown into draft pool.
- We run a normal draft after that, drafting one NL and one AL team.

Trying to think of a way to prevent stacking, but haven't thought of a good way yet. Also a sub-rule is that any player that played for more than 1 team during that year is ineligible to be initially retained by a GM. They directly enter the draft pool. Or we could just go by most games played that year by the team. Either would be fine.
 
all good ideas. I know we never get into the constant drafts again but doing a draft on a month on month off basis would be alright.

I actually like this idea and the fact you get a max from each team and a draft pre-draft helps even the playing field.

Restriction drafts are never fair though.

I believe we have done something similar to the Lefty/Righty and American/National drafts. I would be down to try either of the other 2, or maybe Sushi's.
 
That singular yr draft would be good imo but im up for anything
 
How about this?

You will draft 2 players from each decade, only one of which can be a HOFer, MVP or Cy Young Winner. So you cannot have more than 12 HOFers, MVP/Cy Young Winners.

A players first appearance in a game will be the decade they are eligible for.

2000 - Present
1990 - 1999
1980 - 1989
1970 - 1979
1960 - 1969
1950 - 1959
1940 - 1949
1930 - 1939
1920 - 1929
