Single season starting with 1947 with unlimited keepers.
16 teams, 2 divisions per league.
Fresh draft, snake.
EDIT: Stadiums are first-come, first-served with priority to those who want their own real-life homefield for now or for the future. So I would like to see someone from New England take Fenway or even someone from Atlanta take Braves Field in Boston so that person can play in Atlanta in the future.
Draft order will be determined by random.org with numbers assigned to the order in which owners joined, as listed below.
All future drafts will have each round be in the same order as follows:
Top 3 lottery of worst 3 teams. Last 4 are LCS loser with worse record, LCS loser with better record, WS loser, WS winner. All others are in inverse order of previous season record. Draft tiebreakers are live games played (more picks sooner), then (worse one picks sooner in each instance) head-to-head record, division record (if applicable), intraleague record (if applicable), season run differential, fewest errors, virtual coin flip (either team can jump in and call it).
All others in reverse order of record. Minimum of 40 Live for playoffs and lottery, also minimum 35 wins for lottery.
Trades allowed of players and of picks up to the following offseason. (i.e. You can't trade for 1949 picks until the 1948 draft.)
Parks are exclusive and limited to those used in the given year. The only exception to sole exclusivity is if a park was shared by 2 teams, such as Sportsman's Park was by the Cardinals and the Browns, then you must state NL or AL as well.
Below Average AAA of 6 hitters and 4 pitchers. No WW. No clones. DH in AL starting in 1973.
Expansion possible in the very distant future obviously, at my discretion, but I really want to cap it at 24 teams even if this reaches 1977 when there were 26. If there are fewer JRL teams than real MLB teams in any season, I reserve the right to make AAA average or random. Also in that case, a team can move into a vacant park.

I would like to join, pick stadiums/team cities now or later?

Good question. In the snake draft, the order of stadium pick will be inverse of that of the first round of the initial player draft.

EDIT: See below!

OK Im in...but  NL only   dont like DH...

No DH until 1973. That's at least 7 real-time years from now. LOL! OK you can have an NL team.

Oddly enough, you get the DH next season in the JFK League.

Put me in this bad boy!

I know....I hate it!!

Thanks to everyone who joined so far. If anyone else has a preference for AL or NL, let me know.

Also, rather than the random drawing be for draft order, it will be for whoever gets top choice of where they want to pick. So for example if #2 is drawn first, 33heat would not necessarily have the first pick, he would have first choice of where he wants to pick in the first round from 1st to 16th. It is still a snake draft. And if you take the park of a team that moved in real-life, you move to that city the same year. So if you take the St. Louis AL team (yes, I know the Cardinals and the Browns shared a park), you will play in Baltimore starting in 1954.

I am pimping this out. We need only 16 owners. We have 4 so only 12 to go.

bump

I can sign up -I would like to take Cincinnati if possible

Thanks, Billingsby.

If no one objects. I will allow people to choose the stadiums.

Those who want their own real-life home field either for now or for the future will get priority. For example, if you are from Baltimore, I will let you have Sportsman's Park in the AL so you can play in your city in 7 years.

Bump.

Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?!?!!
