[Adding a Player to The Roster]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
The roster that you create here will be displayed in the same order on
|
|||
|
|
the Line-up, Pinch Hitter/Runner, and Substitution Screens. Using one of
|
|||
|
|
the methods described above, find the player you wish to add to the
|
|||
|
|
team; that is, bring his name into view on the list (any position on the
|
|||
|
|
list will do).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you know where on your roster you wish a player to appear, press [P]
|
|||
|
|
Put, press the number [1]...[9] of the player you wish to add, then
|
|||
|
|
press the letter [A]...[Z] of the position where you want him to appear
|
|||
|
|
on the roster. His name will be moved there. Be careful, since [P] Put
|
|||
|
|
will overwrite a player in the select position.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
If you do not care about position on the roster, press [A] Add and the
|
|||
|
|
number [1]...[9] of the player you wish to add. His name will be added
|
|||
|
|
to the roster in the first available place from the top (non-pitcher) or
|
|||
|
|
from the bottom (pitcher).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Important notes: It is possible to add any player to any team that you
|
|||
|
|
have created even if he appears on other rosters in the same
|
|||
|
|
organization, same league, same division, or same team. (You can even
|
|||
|
|
draft a team composed entirely of your single favorite player.)
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
DRAFT only works with a single Data Diskette. You cannot draft players
|
|||
|
|
from different years onto the same team unless you are playing with an
|
|||
|
|
Old Timers Diskette.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
At any time you may back up to the previous screen using [ESC]. If you
|
|||
|
|
[ESC], the results of any team creation or drafting will be saved.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Releasing a Player]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
You can drop a player from your roster by pressing [R] Release, then the
|
|||
|
|
roster letter of the player to be dropped.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Hint: after a game, an INJURED player can be dropped from his regular
|
|||
|
|
roster and added to his FARM team roster. His name will then not appear
|
|||
|
|
on the regular roster until you want him to rejoin the team.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Trading Players]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Simple player trades can be accomplished by releasing players from their
|
|||
|
|
current teams and drafting them onto their new teams.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
[Considering a Player for the Draft]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
As you are adding players to a roster, you can get more information
|
|||
|
|
about any of the players listed on the screen by pressing [D] Display
|
|||
|
|
then the number [1]...[9] or roster letter [A]...[Z] of the player to
|
|||
|
|
study. Make the necessary disk changes and the Player Screen will appear
|
|||
|
|
(see THE PLAYER SCREEN).

[A Few Examples of Common League Rules]
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Rules about drafting players, order of the draft, quality of the players
|
|||
|
|
drafted, replacing injured players, using farm clubs, using starters and
|
|||
|
|
relievers, using players out of position, and many other organizational
|
|||
|
|
aspects of the game are left to you and your fellow managers. APBA Major
|
|||
|
|
League Players Baseball is a basic management system that is flexible
|
|||
|
|
enough to accommodate many league rules and structures. It is
|
|||
|
|
recommended that rules be established before league play begins. Below
|
|||
|
|
are some examples of common rules.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A team has a 25-player roster.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A team must have at least four starting pitchers.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A starting pitcher may not start before his turn in the rotation.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A starting pitcher may not relieve if there is a reliever available
|
|||
|
|
(unless he is also rated as a reliever).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
A reliever must rest every third (or fourth) game.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
INJURED players must sit out only one half of the specified injured time
|
|||
|
|
(used for leagues with shorter seasons).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Players are seperated into groups of comparable skill/value. Only a
|
|||
|
|
certain number of players can be drafted from each of the higher level
|
|||
|
|
of skill, providing for more realistic teams.
