This twist theme league is progressing through the seasons, we started in 1969. We use the top 24 teams each season, dropping the remaining in seasons with more than 24 MLB teams. Divisions are aligned by the winning percentage the teams actually had that season (tie breaker is alphabetical by city name). It's possible that the teams left out may actually be a better "twist" than those included, but as always it is the Luck Of The Draw, so you will play with whoever you get and like it. With this alignment even the rotten teams have a shot at the playoffs, and we all know that anything can happen in the playoffs.

Once we are full, I'll use the last 2 digits of each owners rating to give out the teams. The lowest number gets the team with the highest winning percentage. If there is a tie, I'll use the 3rd digit to break it, with the lowest getting the best team. Each year we'll get different teams using the same method.

This a standard twist league, which means you can use anyone who played for your team that season according to Baseball Reference.com Use any season of any eligible player as long as he made at least one appearance for your team that year.

Any $ 200K player can be used to fill out your roster.

The 1984 World Series winner will become Commish for the 1986 season, we generally get things started for the next season around the 120-140 game mark of the current season

Likewise, the winner of this new 1985 season will be Commish for 1987.
