The team available is the Minnesota Lakes in the 1914/74 Progressive League. This is a 20 team double season progressive that started with the 1901/1961 season and will soon be drafting for the 1914/74 (14th) season. Because of the double season format, there is plenty of talent available.There will be more than 600 players available in the 1914/1974 draft, including around 90 rookies and more than 500 undrafted players, with only about 100 draft picks needed by the 20 teams.

The team's record for 1913/1973 is 55-78 with 19 games left in the season.

This has been a very stable league. 11 members have been in the league since inception and 1 more for 12 seasons, with 3 others for 9 or 10 seasons.

I will give interested owners access to the league's private forum which contains league rules and where the list of available players for the 1914/1974 season will be posted in the next week or so.

We are currently in the stage of posting keepers so the first task of a new owner will be to decide on keepers for the team. The team roster is as follows:

C Bob Boone 1974, Jimmy Archer 1914
1B Boog Powell 1974
2B Tommy Helms 1974
3B Larry Gardner 1914
SS Roger Peckinpaugh 1914, Bud Harrelson 1974
