NL Rising Phoenix is a unique private Scoresheet root league. Each team roster is based partially on a major league roster. Team 5 in the league is available. Team 5's major league team is the San Francisco Giants. Each team protects 14 major leaguers, 7 of which must be from the root team (Giants). The remaining 7 players may be from the root team or from any other team. The league allows 3 crossovers. In addition, without penalty (loss of picks 35, 34, ....) each team may protect 15 minor league players. All 15 minor league players may be from the root team (Giants) or up to 5 minor league players may be kept from other teams and 10 from the root team. Loss of round penalties occur for protecting more than 15 minor leaguers or protecting more than 5 non-root minor league players. The top two draft picks in the amateur draft each year are automatically assigned to the root team (Giants). Other basic Scoresheet rules otherwise apply to the league.
