1914/1954 Seperate League Draft - FILLED!!! Topic

The league rules contain the following provisions concerning draft order: 

DRAFT ORDER. Tanking will be discouraged by the following measures: 1.There will be a random weighted (3 chances for the team with worst record, 2 chances for next worst etc.) lottery among the 3 teams (bottom 25% of the league) in each league (1902 and 1942) with the worst record to determine draft order for the first round only. 2. Despite the results of the lottery, no team that fails to win at least 50 games during the regular season will draft higher than 3rd in the first round.
 This rule will be waived for a new owner who takes over a team which failed to meet the 50 win minimum. 3. All other teams will draft in inverse order of their regular season record . All rounds subsequent to the first will be in inverse order of their regular season record . Ties(including ties for lottery positions) will be broken by run differential during the 162 game regular season-i.e. runs scored less runs allowed. The team with the worst differential will draft highest among tied teams.

NOTE :  There is 2 Leagues, with 10 Teams in each League. So Thats 2 = 5 Team Divisions in each League. Yes, the 1914 National League Teams do Play Interleague Games with the 1954 American League Teams. Owners are NOT Required to Play a Team in Each League.  The 2 Divisional Winners in the Each League, Both AL and NL Play for the Right to go to the World Series and have 1 League Champion.

This is a Very Fun League. 1914 Players and Pitchers, Playing the 1954 League players and Pitchers and Also Playing there Own League as well... 

If you have Questions... Please Ask... 

Great Competive Owners in this League... Some Owners do Play a Team in Each League... But there is NO Trading of Players between the 2 Leagues... So, It's 1914 Teams VS 1954 Teams...

The Baltimore Orioles, were the St. Louis Browns in 1953, But will be Moving to Baltimore for there 1st Season as the Baltimore Orioles...

They Currently have a 65-78 Record in the League. That Translates to the 2nd worst Record in the American League. 

So, With 18 Games left in the Regular Season or 1 Week.  They will most likely be elgible for the 3 Team Lottery. There are 4 Teams currently at 71Wins to 73 Wins, Looking at that Last Possible Lottery Pick... 

To show how Competive this League really is, the Worst Team in the League has a Record of 60 Wins and 83 Loses...

The Best Team in the American League is Currently @ 80 Wins... So this Shows that all the teams are Very Close and Competive...

Please Come and Join the Fun...


Here are some of the 1954 Rookies you could get with this Team :

OF - Hank Aaron,  OF - Al Kaline,  SS - Ernie Banks, 1B/OF - Vic Powell, P - Camilo Pascual

This is a good league.Not so many teams so you can often get good players into round 3 of the draft.Therefore a rebuild can over
Church much sooner than a 24 team league.
