There are twelve polls: two for each division, one for hitters and one for pitchers. You get to vote for twelve hitters and twelve pitchers, using the same positions we use in Pro-GM, plus a few extra spots for the bench. When voting for players on the bench, it's up to you whether to just choose the best players or whether to take positional eligibility into account. For hitters: please vote for one player for each of the eight positions, plus four additional hitters from any position for DH and bench. For pitchers: please vote for 5 SP, 5 RP, and 2 additional pitchers, SP or RP, for P and bench. Pitchers listed as SP/RP can count as SP or RP, your choice.
There's no DL spot, but if you think an injured player deserves consideration, go ahead and vote for him. The bench can cover for him until he returns.
I will not be including every player from the division. I'll try to narrow it down to roughly 30-40 of the best options. I'll leave one "other" slot in case I missed anyone, which you can use by leaving a comment. Obviously not everybody will be voting for the same "other" option. If you want to vote for more than one "other," just post multiple names, but you can still only select it once.
When voting, rather than try to reward past performance or this year's performance, treat it as though you're drafting a team for the rest of this season and you want to make that team as strong as possible.
