The 1956 ReWrite History Progressive League needs one new owner for 1956. The open team is the Brooklyn Dodgers. The Dodgers finished 1955 season 77-85. Their roster is below. Basically this league is a standard league but the first four rounds of each rookie draft you are only able to draft players who played for your team at some point in their career. After the first four rounds, all players are eligible to be drafted by any team.

If a player only played for the defunct teams (currently CHC, MLN, PHA, WSH) they are eligible to be drafted by everyone. Any player who is only eligible for one team is assigned either a First or Second Round Draft grade and has to be drafted by that team in that round, or they open up to everyone the next round.

After the draft is over you are free to trade players to any team that you wish.

If you are a fan of the two open NL franchises (Cubs/Braves) you can move to either of them if you'd like.

1956 Brooklyn Dodgers

C - Roy Campanella and Hal Naragon
1B - Gil Hodges
2B - Jim Gilliam
3B - Willie Jones, Andy Carey and Jackie Robinson
SS - Pee Wee Reese, and Joe Demaestri
OF - Sandy Amoros, Monte Irvin, Wally Moon, Dick Williams
SP - Carl Erskine, Sandy Koufax, Paul Minner, Don Newcombe
RP - Joe Black, Russ Meyer, Billy Loes, Erv Palica, Howie Pollet, Max Surkont

Bump...a new owner could move this team to Washington/Minnesota or Phi/KC/Oak which have powerful franchises coming up, rather than keeping it in Chicago.

No Pale Hose fans out there? You could move them to either of the two open AL cities (Philadelphia or Washington) if you preferred.
