The league has started the 1952 draft but it has been delayed for a couple of weeks. the commissioner, Italyprof, had some work related conflict to attend to.

I have taken on the responsibility as commissioner, at least in the interm...

Because the 1950s doesn't have enough players to complete our rosters, we use secondary players from the pool of players who finished their careers during WWII. We use their last active year, and they are exclusive. Each year we draft first from the pool of players who actually played that year and then we have another draft to choose from the secondary players necessary to complete the roster. It works out pretty well. These players are denoted by the year (194?) in the roster below.

Space Age Progressive League - 1946 to the present

Rules

  • Only players listed in the player pool are eligible for the draft
  • Park Selections -You may change to an available park, which will move you to the city as well. We will retain league alignments. An owner may change divisions, but not leagues. For example if a AL owner decides to move to CAL, but he's currently in the PLE, he would move to the PLW and the most eastern team would move to the PLE. If you decide to move, you must do so with one of your regular draft scheduled picks. You will then have an extra pick added to the end of the RND following your last scheduled pick. For example, if you have 5 scheduled picks, and you make a park selection with your 4TH RND pick, a pick will be added to the end of the 6TH RND to make up for the player pick
  • all time slots will be 30 minutes
  • Smail next 2 in line
  • If a player is listed who was part of someone's keeper list, then that player belongs to the owner who picked him during the draft. This is why reviewing the player pool to ensure that your guy isn't there is important. The reason for this rule is so that everything is laid out before hand and if we run into the issue it's been addressed. I've seen pools on hold for days because of this exact issue.
  • If you make an uneven deal during the draft, or trade away a player for a pick next year you must make up that pick during the supplemental round
  • League
    • No Cap, No Waiver Wire
    • No DH
    • Max Keepers is 20

    • snake style draft (even numbered rounds will be reverse order of uneven numbered rounds)
    • from '46-'62 we will be using last season Players from the years '40-'45 as fillers, known as "Secondaries/Supplementals"
    • The "Secondaries/Supplementals" draft will be held after the regular rookie draft
    • The "Secondaries/Supplementals" draft will be opposite order of the rookie draft
    • The "Secondaries/Supplementals" can be kept as part of each teams alloted 20 max keepers each draft
    • RL draft of AAA players. Total Roster can be up to 30
