You can call me "batta", or "gin lemon" (might be easier to remember that way. But lemon is also fine I Guess

I'm here and ready to start!
I'm fine with whatever really, but can I propose a minidraft?
So both can pick the preferred players/picks from each team and start anew. It's something I'm used to do in all my leagues when 2 or more owners leave.
Shouldn't take much time with just the 2 of us

I would be okay with that. However it does to some point mess up the lottery. I would like a little more import. Current one team is due 1 lottery ball and the other 5. So we could balance it out to 3 apiece but that sort of hurts the other teams with three lottery balls.

Likewise we run the lottery as usual and flip a coin to see which of the new guys gets which pick. But again I think this hurts some of the lower wrung teams as the TyCobb team is likely to improve.

Or we could run the lottery as designed and then move the two new guys to the end of the draft but prior to the champ.



Let's open it up for a bit more discussion.

Meanwhile if the two new guys could message me their emails that would be great.
