The ReWrite History Progressive will need an owner for 1 team in 1998 - currently the team is located in Montreal - and they are pretty stacked

The idea of this league is to basically try to keep players only with teams they played for in their careers, though trades are allowed.

The FIRST FOUR rounds of every draft ....rookies can only be drafted by teams they played for (according to BaseballReference.com).   Free agents left over from past seasons can be taken by any team in any round

Each year I provide a list of rookies with the teams that are eligible to draft them...so it makes it easy for owners

After round 4 anyone can draft anyone, including rookies.   This means that the best players start their careers only with teams they played for.

Those restrictions are released, however, for trades, as anyone can be traded to anyone

League has been running since the 70s.  We have a 16-team league.  

DH in AL only

Every team has the option to keep up to 24 players prior to the draft.    However we draft up to a roster size of 35.  We manually draft up to 10 in AAA

Franchises not currently used:
Arizona
California
Chicago Cubs
Chicago White Sox
Cleveland
Florida
Kansas City
Milwaukee
Minnesota
New York Mets
Pittsburgh
San Diego
Seattle
Texas

**** Any franchise move for CURRENT OWNERS does not come into effect until after a full season of play once the announcement is made.  This prevents teams from moving to a new city simply because the upcoming draft has a great player they could grab ****

HOWEVER

*******if a NEW OWNER wants to take one of the franchises and immediately move to a city not currently in the league, that would be allowed**********
