<div><div dir="auto">As much as I like NYK Mike’s idea, but I don’t think mixing old cards would work. I believe Pursue the Pennant was the game used for the league’s first 5 years or so, those cards aren’t available. </div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Additionally, I’m sure Sean can say this, but the IBL Game from the late 90s is likely very different from today. Just in recent years, we’ve had complete overhauls of the pitching fatigue system and bunting system. I think the steal system was overhauled at some point too. I don’t think the different years are compatible with one another.</div></div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">NJR Mike</div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Jun 3, 2020 at 3:36 PM Michael Kenlan via Members <<a href="mailto:members@lists.ibl.org">members@lists.ibl.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div><div style="font-family:Helvetica Neue,Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:16px"><div></div>
<div dir="ltr">Assuming no baseball in 2020, I thought it would be interesting to play a one-off season where you look back through your franchise's history and compile your best 30-man roster to play with. I believe the cards already exist? If you wanted to add an element of creative roster building, it could be a 29-man roster with one card from each year since '92. No trades.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Simultaneously, if baseball resumes in 2021, waivers would continue to process each week for your regular dynasty roster. Initially the waiver order would be based off of last year's standings, but after each add you get bumped to the bottom of the order.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">A one-off season while maintaining regular waivers on the side would offer a good balance between 2021 fun and playing for the future.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">myk_nyk</div><div><br></div>
