With the playoffs well underway I thought it would be a good time to play a mini baseball season with Inning baseball.
It will be the inaugural season of the Karton Baseball League and will field 4 teams in one division (with plans to expand the league in the future in both teams and divisions).
Each team will play 2 home and away series of 3 games against the 3 other teams for a regular season of 36 games.
Then the top team from each division will play off in a 3 game championship series – THE BEAN CUP.
Each team gets a roster of 22 players and a minimum starting pitcher rotation of 3.
The inaugural teams are:
- Karton Empires
- Harktown Hitters
- Roe City Rats
- Southern Pirates
The draft
I have created a list of random names from my random name generator (which you can get here). I randomly created skills for each player and had a draft with each team choosing one player in turn until their rosters where filled.
