In addition, we made special exceptions to include the following players: Julio Pablo Martinez, Yusei Kikuchi, Victor Victor Mesa, and Victor Mesa Jr. Importantly, the hypothetical league uses standard, 5-by-5 scoring with a depth of approximately 500 active players (i.e., 30-man roster for 16-team league).
