Adding 4 Teams

Recently, a flurry of new owners have surfaced.  I originally turned away the first three as the in season schedule wouldn't work with 21-23 teams.  However, when the fourth request for a team came in, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to expand ATB to a mega, 24-human controlled team league.

I wish there were a perfect way to do this, but in the end the addition of four new teams outweighs any negative repercussions from monkeying with the  draft order and divisional alignment that were previously announced.

The four new teams will be inserted into the draft slots 21-24.  As for the divisions, we'll keep the American vs National alignment as is, adding two teams to each.  However, each of these leagues will need to be split into East vs West.

Here's how it works out (all via Random Number Generator)

AL - East
Justin B
Lou P
Justin P
Steve C
Joe V (New This Year)
Jason S (New This Year)

AL - West
Sean S
Matt B
Ivar A
Fred B (New This Year)
Dave K (New This Year)
New Guy (New This Year)

NL - East
TJ O
Mike S
Brad P
Jeff B
Michael G (New This Year)
Brad H (New This Year)

NL - West
Jason B
Brian B
Joe T
Jay H
Alan C
Shotgun S

For the 21-24 slots in draft:
21 - Michael G
22 - Jason H
23 - Don't Know Name
24 - Brad H

  1. Woot. Will be an awesome draft. Are the playoofs going going to expand as well?

  2. 672 picks! Working on playoffs tonight. I think we'll keep at 8, one third of the teams, but not definite
