Unique, Realistic Dynasty League Opening
Now entering its 28th year, Mendoza Baseball is a hobbyist site run by volunteers dedicated to developing the most realistic Major League Baseball franchise ownership game possible. If you've been successful at traditional fantasy games and are looking for a new challenge, this could be the game for you. If you love deep rosters, active owners, and long running leagues, this could be the game for you.
I'm commissioner of the Frank Robinson Memorial League, a 24 team mixed league and we're looking for a new owner for our 16th season. Check out the roster here: https://www.mendozabaseball.club/fra...23&leagueID=13 and the rules here: https://www.mendozabaseball.club/Mendoza%20Rules.docx
Mendoza is a sabermetric, dynasty format that is designed to emulate the economics, strategies and transaction rules of MLB as closely as possible, warts and all. The scoring is based on an intricate but intuitive system where player values are calibrated to be similar to advanced metrics like WAR, VORP, etc. Mendoza has everything you would want in a challenging fantasy format, including:
* E-Bay style free agent auctions for free agents and minor leaguers
* 25-man active rosters, 40-man major league rosters and 20-man minor league rosters
* Reserve clause and arbitration simulator
* Multi-year contracts
* A waiver system
* Fielding incorporated into scoring
* Playing time caps and floors
* Designate relievers as closers (high leverage), setup, or long relief (low leverage)
* A full-blown economic model with revenue sharing (i.e., luxury tax)
* Deep leagues with dedicated owners that stick around for the whole year (and beyond)
There are 12 different leagues in total and 3 others have openings if Robinson wasn't quite right for you.
Let me know if you have questions.
