The five teams listed in the first post have been claimed, but one more owner has dropped out and needs to be replaced. See bottom of thread.
Dual-season progressive league 2 seasons away from reloading in the 1950s needs five owners. We’re heading into 1979/2009 (our 12th season), and after 1980/2010 we’ll go to 1981/1951. At that point there will be the usual worst-to-first draft for 1951 first-year players only. That will be followed by a random-order draft of all other players active in 1951, so teams will have a great opportunity to rebuild.
The league offers some live play but none is required. Owners who play live are generally placed in the AL, with most of the live teams playing 15-20 live games per season. None of the five available teams has traded away any future draft picks.
Post or sitemail if interested and I can add you to the private league forum.
