The reason this league is "expanding" is two-fold. First, the number of players WILL expand in 1977 and again later. We could make the league bigger over time. Second, we've replaced exactly one owner in each season so far. So, if this league interests you, just mention it below without obligation, and I will know to reach out next time we need more owners. We draft around once a month, so it might not be long!

If you have not tried the WIS draft mod, this is an easy way to get experience with this feature, because it is easy to use but we will happily help you learn it!. Just join, or reply below, or message me!

THM76882 is the code for the 1973 draft. I am running these drafts a few days into the prior season, not waiting for the season to end. This is the 5th season, which is the last one before the WIS bonus kicks in! In 1973, we will need at least one new owner. Also, we add the DH for ALL teams.

This league is a LOT of fun!

If you have not yet drafted using the WIS feature, this is a great chance to try it. I am happy to answer any questions as we draft, but everyone finds it eary to learn.

The draft will include all 1973 players, but once any version of a speciifc player is taken (combined or partial seasons), other versions are removed from the pool.

We completed the 1969 draft in under a week, and after 90 games every division was still competitive, and no one was more than 16 games out. Everyone was competitive in 1970 after 109 games. All but 3 teams are within 6 so we will have a bunch of exciting pennant races. We love drafting so we aren't waiting for one season to end before moving along.

Using the WIS draft module, you will know your EXACT 10 minutue draft windows in advance. They are from 11am-9pm eastern. If you miss a slot, you can pick anytime - but every 10 minutes another player has the ability to slip ahead of you.

This league is progressive in this way - a few days into the 1973 season, I will do another draft for the 1974 players. No keepers from 1973 for that, but most players in one were in both.

WIS is giving me $50 of prize credit to distribute to those with the best records within the first 5 seasons (1969-1973). If you replace a prior player, you can inherit their win count to stay competitive.

Please see "missing manager" policy on page 4. This will only be implemented if we don't get a WIS fix mid-draft.

WIS set it up assuming the draft begins on April 10 (assuming we are full of course). It is available to register today!

We will do the round 26 stadium draft in the draftt chat, but players need to select their stadium in BOTH that location (for exclusivity) and in the draft module (to prevent delays from fixing it afterward).

Round 26 draft order: late can pick anytime from remaining 1972 stadiums, post in draft chat before picking it. (will update with 1973 once draft starts)

You can just say the team name to draft the stadium.
You can draft early ONLY if everyone ahead of you has drafted.
You can send proxies to someone if you will be busy at your draft time.
You can pick any time after if you miss your draft window BUT every 10 minutes someone else can sneak ahead of you. Good to look after your post submits, just to be sure.
*Changing by 1980 (Expos 1977, Yanks 74/76, Padres 1980, Rangers 1972)
