Sloadrock decided not to run this again so i'm going to try with a bit of modification.

Here are are the details....

You can take any team from any one year. You can twist any two players on the squad to any single one of their years, and then you can add anyone from any year to place on your team.

Could the 1984 Padres have won if they had Bob Gibson on their roster?

Pick your favorite team....your favorite year....twist two...add one.

Play 60 games live, yes to trades, no ww, no DH, no clones, no AAA....120mil

If there aren't enough eligible players in the database to fill out your roster spot please fill out your roster using 200k scrubs from your franchise, preferably in the same era if possible.

Please use the stadium that your team played in.

The biggest difference this season is that aside from blacklisting all playoff teams from Season I, I am also excluding all World Series winners AND losers. You have to try and take a team that didn't make it to the Fall Classic and try to get them there with your GM and managing skills.

I will pick 10th. Good Luck!

League number to follow as soon as I pick my team.

1. obnyy - 1931 Yankees -

No worries, welcome back!

Oby please blacklist all teams from last season or are we doing the world series losers one..either way id like that better than just an open shot at playing teh same teams again.

I'm in with 1980 Orioles + Baltimore native Babe Ruth ...

obnyy: Oops ... Your league number (MLB34696) is not listed ... ... Also 1980 WIS team listing of Orioles was short 2 players ... I used http://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/BAL/1980.shtml to twist Mike Boddicker (7.1 IP in 1980 to 1984 version) ...

Put me down for the 1952 Indians

hey ob can we get a list of teams from season 1 in here too..just for reference

im back i wouldnt be posting all the time if i wasnt

staindman, the playoff teams from season I are going to be blacklisted AND you aren't allowed to have any teams that played in the real life World Series either, be it winners or losers. That way it's a bit more challenging than picking the best Yankee teams. I'll get a list for everyone later when I get home. Also if your team didn't have enough players on the roster to fill yours out you can select any 200k players to round it out.

Thanks for signing up guys!

sign me up again!

Welcome back mrnelson!

I'll take an Athletics team in this one if it takes long enough to fill. Either before or after their 3-year run from 1929-1931 (ie. either 1928 or 1932). I'll have a better internet connection early next week to specify which.
