It's just like a regular All-Time Draft, but without those inducted into the Hall as players. Draft based on MLB accomplishments only. I'm looking for a minimum of eight teams; beyond that, I don't care how many enter. Snake draft. If you join, Jim Albright and Bill Burgess will appear at your door and sing the full version of "Take Me Out to the Ball Game". Tip well, and they might throw in the "Who's on First?" bit.

To qualify at a position, a player must have played at least 500 games at that position. If he played twice as many games at one position as any other, he must play that position.
Team design:
C
1B
2B
3B
SS
LF
CF
RF
DH
The DH is open to any player.
Nine pitchers of your choice, plus one reliever. A realistic pitching staff is not appropriate for this kind of project. Who cares who the 30th best reliever not in the Hall is?
Five bench players. Must include backup catcher, two other infielders and two outfielders. Center fielders can play corner outfield, and left fielders and right fielders are interchangeable. In other words, if a player plays 500 games at center, but not as a corner OF, he may still be placed at the corner spots. A player with 500 games in left can play right no matter the number of games there, and vice versa. But corners cannot play center if they do not meet the 500 games minimum there. Backup infielders can only play at a position they meet the 500 games requirement.
Wild card. Can add a pitcher or another bench player.
That's 25 players.
