The following are the league rules to my new salary sim league, the first of it's kind to my knowledge.
I. Premise - This league is a new step in sim leagues. Combining MVP Baseball 2005 and real salaries from the major leagues, this sim league will test owners skills to create the ultimate team given the inherent restraints of ball clubs.
II.Rosters - The league will be using the major league rosters as of August 6th, 2005. The league will also be using league edits from the following site in order to make the league more tailored towards this current baseball season. The site is: www.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/game/925211.html
Click on "Player Edit Guide" by Averlus to view all of the edits.
Furthermore, all in game characters, such as Kuiper or Krukow or Bako, have been severly edited and will be no where as good as they once were.
III. Cheating - IP Addresses will be monitored, along with email addresses and AIM screennames, so please, don't attempt to make 2 teams and trade between one another.
IV. Trading - Trades can be made between two or more ballclubs as long as owners are in agreeance to the deals. With the new salary feature, make sure the deal keeps the clubs within the salary cap. Trades can also involve teams paying a certain year (s) of a players contract in order for the deal to work. Furthermore, if a trade is in the waiting trades section and your name is on it saying "I Accept", the deal is final, no going back.
V. Contracts - When you sign up for your team, check your organizational home on this site to find out information regarding your teams salary. Here you can find out how long each player has on his contract, as well as how much you are paying him and any incentives that he makes. If a player is traded, his contract will then be added to the opposing team. Trades can involve contract sharing if the owners so desire.
VI. Minor Leagues - 5 Minor League players will have contracts assigned to them, with the rest of the AAA team having salaries of $316,000.
VII. Player Progression - Every player will progress/degress, and I will post how much all of the real players and draft choices have progressed.
VIII. Simming - Simming will be done on a month by month basis with stats posted after the month, except for the following times:
Opening Series
Wildcard Races near the end of the season
In-depth coverage of the All-Star Game
IX. League Rules - There will be no injuries, suspensions, rained out games, etc b/c I don't have the ability to alter lineups to the GM's choice during the seaosn.
X. Contract Incentives - Contracts will increase from each year, the smallest possible contract is $316,000, while the largest is whatever you are willing to pay within the salary cap. Those in the last season of their deals will have a chance to sign with their former team, for a percentage more, or test the free agency, again, at a percentage more. If a player makes the all-star game, his next contract will have to have a $15,000 All-Star incentive. For 2 -- $25,000, 3 -- $50,000, and for 4+ -- $100,000.
XI. Free Agents - Any team can sign any Free Agent, and release any player whom they have for a contract. However, if a player with a team contract is released, that team will continue to pay for the player until he is picked up by another team. Free Agent signing will begin once the league is full, and will be in a silent auction style for each player.
XII. Player Additions - The following players have been added to the league as CAP's from: db.gamefaqs.com/console/ps2/file/mvp_baseball_2005_cap.txt .

XIII. Salary Cap - The Salary Cap for each teams 30-man roster will be : $89,000,000.00
If you are over this limit, start making some trades or releasing some players in hopes they get re-signed! The Cap will increase by a small percentage each year to accomodate the increasing salaries of each team in the league. There will be several teams that are over the limit, so make sure to check out your teams roster.
XIV. Releasing Players - The Rule on Releasing players is as follows. Any team may release any player for whatever reason, but their current contract will continue to be charged against the team as a free agent contract unless someone signs them to their team. If a player is on a free agency contract, their salary will count in addition to the 30 man salary and towards the cap.
I. Premise - This league is a new step in sim leagues. Combining MVP Baseball 2005 and real salaries from the major leagues, this sim league will test owners skills to create the ultimate team given the inherent restraints of ball clubs.

Furthermore, all in game characters, such as Kuiper or Krukow or Bako, have been severly edited and will be no where as good as they once were.
III. Cheating - IP Addresses will be monitored, along with email addresses and AIM screennames, so please, don't attempt to make 2 teams and trade between one another.
IV. Trading - Trades can be made between two or more ballclubs as long as owners are in agreeance to the deals. With the new salary feature, make sure the deal keeps the clubs within the salary cap.
