Draft starts soon. Detroit Shifters have #3 Pick in First Round, and #2 Pick the rest of the draft.

Unfortunately a great owner SteveBobLDN has gone AWOL. Lets all hope he is well. I have placed an ad for his team:

1939 Detroit Shifters - Available Players - Must Keep Maximum 20 of these 26 players

C - Rollie Hemsley, Babe Phelps, Johnny Peacock, Birdie Tebbetts
1B - Babe Dahlgren, Gus Suhr
2B - Charlie Gehringer
3B - Ken Keltner
SS - Luke Appling, Charlie Gelbert (IF)
OF - Bobby Estalella, Gee Walker, Tommy Henrich, Jo-Jo Moore, Roy Weatherly, Carl Reynolds

P - Schoolboy Rowe, Bucky Walters, Bill McGee, Charlie Root, Pete Appleton, Lynn Nelson, Max Butcher, Ken Chase, Joe Krakauskas, Joe Heving

IR in 1939: 2
Al Smith, P (1940)
Eddie Mayo, 3B (1943)

Retired in 1939:
Boze Berger, SS
Merv Conners, 1B

We are a 12 team league with two x six team divisions. Division winners play each other in the World Series. Above team has been competitive, but didn't do as well last season. They have some great pieces (Appling, Keltner, Henrich, Rowe, Walters) and should be competitive in the coming season.

We have no DH (its 1939!), and we are a mix of veteran and newbie owners. Its a fun league, and trading is encouranged. Goal is for fast turnover season to season. This will be our 20th season.

If you are interested please site mail. I am happy to answer any questions.
