4. How active will you be? I plan on being active
5. List 3 teams(in order of preference) that you want from the list. You don't have to list 3 if you can't find interesting enough team. I'd rather have active owners who ARE interested.

Team preference: (In No Order: Everyone is considered equally)
1. Angels

Hello minger80,

Your application has been approved and you can take control of the LA Angels.

I am around almost anytime if you need answers for the new league. As is most TAB members.

One thing that needs to be mentioned: before you make any franchise altering trades, really become familiar with trade valuations that exist in a 20 team league with 30 man rosters. Depth can never be understated, ever.

Initial steps
1. Copy and paste the current Angel's roster into a new thread where you are the new owner and you then can edit your own threads.
2. Create your own Transaction thread to document all your activity. Trades are most important here as well as waiver passes used.
3. Create your own Prospect thread, then copy your prospects into it.
4. Be aware that players get 5 years of protection at a salary of $300k once promoted. (That is 5-yrs AFFTER or 6-yrs including the year)
5. Change your login name to Angels's GM – (minger80) or something like that so other owners will know who they are dealing with.
a. Steps, click on profile and edit profile, then select personal tab and update Display Name.
6. If you have a Smart Phone or IPAD I recommend that you download Taptalk for your mobile device access. It works perfectly to keep you in touch with all league and team activity. Can also use proboards on any browser.
7. I will need your fantrax ID to get you set-up on fantrax.
8. This league has a discord group if you would be interested in joining I can get that info to you as well.
9. You will need to review this and post before your allowed to make any moves in the league - suicide-squeeze.proboards.com/thread/3741/minors-opening-day-roster-missing . As new GM there will be some leeway on April 15th minors.

I would suggest doing this before making any posts in team forum -- suicide-squeeze.proboards.com/thread/2062/spaces-on-posts

Good luck and welcome!
Joey
