AL/NL Battle of the Eras - FULL Topic

Originally established by otoole2 as the Earl Weaver Baseball League, I'm keeping it alive as we're more than half-full...

A modest, modified recreation of Earl Weaver Baseball. 16 teams, four divisions, four playoff teams, no DH, no waiver wire, no AAA, no clones, $255 million. Each owner must pick a unique time period in either the AL or NL and only choose players from that league during those years.  In other words, if you choose a time period in the AL, you can only draft players who played for an American League team in real life.  Choose a stadium that was also in use during your era in your league.  The periods are:

1895-1910
1911-1925
1926-1940
1941-1955
1956-1970
1971-1985
1986-2000
2001-2015

No two owners can have the same league and period. NL teams will be placed in the NL and AL teams will be placed in the AL.

Good luck!


League number MLB114331, but you must sign up for your league and era first.

Are ballparks era and league specific?  I think that would be a good feature.

It appears otoole2's original ad did not address that.  I assumed it was the case when I chose my own stadium, the Reds' League Park.  I'll update the OP as I agree it is a good feature that goes with the spirit of the league.
