1969 Draft League
How about a mini draft league? (4 Owners/Teams per Draft).
In 1969 MLB expanded to 24 teams and went with the 4 Divisions of 6 Teams Format shown below.
NL-EAST
New York Mets
Chicago Cubs
Pittsburgh Pirates
St. Louis Cardinals
Philadelphia Phillies
Montreal Expos
NL-WEST
Atlanta Braves
San Francisco Giants
Cincinnati Reds
Los Angeles Dodgers
Houston Astros
San Diego Padres
AL-EAST
Baltimore Orioles
Detroit Tigers
Boston Red Sox
Washington Senators
New York Yankees
Cleveland Indians
AL-WEST
Minnesota Twins
Oakland Athletics
California Angels
Kansas City Royals
Chicago White Sox
Seattle Pilots
This League however will only be a 16 Team League with 4 Teams in a Division giving everyone a bit more talent.
So, with that in mind, sign up stating which Division you want to be in. I will take the last spot available.
The 4 Owners from each Division will then hold their own seperate draft using the players from 1969 and the 6 Real Life teams from that Division. Random Draft order to start, then serpentine. You must pick 1 of the 6 Stadiums that were used within your Division in 1969 in the draft as well and each one will be exclusive. My research shows that this league will play out at about as a $80 Million Team plus whoever you have on the bench.
Any player that played for more than 1 Team in 1969 must use the appropriate partial version. If there is no partial version then you are not allowed to use that player. The only Combined versions of a player that are allowed are if that player played for 2 teams that are from the same division.
