Q: 110M theme:

It's not specifically mentioned, but since we roster 25 players, I assume we can have more than one teammate per player selected (at least one player HAS to have more than one teammate).

Q: 70M theme:

I assume the aggregate AVG and OAV stats that are being compared comes from the team center (so scrubs' totals count in the stats). But pitchers batting stat does not count.
Correct

Oh, yes, you can have as many players from a single team as you'd like as long as you have the same number of players from that team on your Round 2 team.

For the variable cap, does the 2M kick in at any number above (for example) 0.10? So 0.11? I assume you're only going to two digits, but I'm not sure how you'll be doing calculations.
Oh, good Q. Yeah, I'm going to round everyone's teams to two decimal places. The upper bound is not inclusive of the number. So I should probably just update it (i.e. 0.09). Will do that now.

For the Variable Cap - is the HR/9 cap increase based on a pitcher by pitcher basis (so 10 potential salary bumps), or collective staff total (one bump)? It sounds like team total/one bump, but wanted to confirm?

It's not specifically stated, but can I assume no player's same season can be used in both rounds? I can't use '27 Ruth and Gehrig and then use them as each others' teammates in Round 2, right? But I could use one season of each in Round 1 and then use their teammate seasons in Round 2?

Correct — you can't use the same player twice

for the variable cap, I assume you calculate the HR/9 based on the 162 game projections, not actual HR allowed over actual innings pitched?
