1 This will be a Decade Franchise League starting 1950-59 to 2010-19. (Only 7 Seasons) .After 2019 we can talk about regression or quitting.

2. 1950s franchises will be chosen by 16 owners Random.Org will determine the order.

3. To maintain fairness and competitive balance there will be a very tight 74 million dollar cap. CHALLENGE- You will need to decide whether a superstar’s salary will help your team or hurt the rest of the roster. I’ve played around with all 16 franchises and believe we will all be between 73-74 mil. Some franchises will need to make painful cuts. How do you make your franchise better than the others, when you can’t outspend them?

4. Franchise rotation. At the end of each season (decade), the four last place teams and the next 4 worst teams will have the opportunity to change franchises. (Ties in W-L record will be broken by 1. Division wins, 2. Run differential 3. Random . Org. ) After the 50s decade the worst team #16 can trade his franchise for either the Mets, Astros, Angels, or new Senators). Suppose he trades the Cubs in for the Angels. Now # 15 has a choice of Mets, Astros, Cubs, or new Senators. Owners may pass and keep their franchise. Owners of the best 8 teams must keep their franchise. The commissioner will realign divisions after this trying to keep as close to tradition as possible. This will happen after each season.

5. Other Info
A. Anyone who had a WIS eligible season for your franchise may be selected.
B. No clones on a team, but there will be in the league.
C Stadiums must have been used by your franchise during the decade.
D No WW
E.No DH in 50s or 60s. AL owners may vote in 70s.
F. If I can set it up correctly I would like 2/2 *Average AAA. Draft your own from your franchise any year.

6. if I forgot anything, or you have questions post them here.

I need another progressive like I need a kick in the teeth but I’ll join yours Bob. Sounds like fun

count me in

Please reserve me a spot

In

Another thing about the lower cap and the whole decade to choose from is that we will see some players not normally used.

On vacation now and won't be back until mid-August. If you have an opening at that time, I'd be interested in joining.

Bob...you know you can count on me to manage in your league. Thanks.

Welcome Mazzilli, thanks.

Poppa enjoy your vacation, I’m on a permanent vacation. Hope we will be fill, but if not I will get back to you.

Being retired I’m also on permanent vacation. But now we are going on a “fun vacation.” And thanks for getting me in mind.
