Need 1 owner to take the team listed below.
This is a duel season progressive with 16 teams currently in the 1973/2003 season. We'll progress to 1974/2004 next year.
Each year the NL and AL Teams alternate drafting between the two seasons and this is an NL team so they will draft from the 2004 season. Only players below $7M are eligible to draft. If a Player has a season above $7M they are automatic Cuts and go back into the pool when the next season they have, is below $7M. We use a weighted draft order with the better teams having a better chance to draft first in the first round only to deter tanking, then it is serpentine.

This team is a rebuild but has some nice pieces for the upcoming season and beyond. Ron Cey, Reggie Smith, Richie Zisk, Geoff Jenkins, Austin Kearns, Barry Zito, Doc Medich, Jim Barr, Josh Beckett, Mark Buehrle, Al Hrabosky, Bill Campbell, Scot Shields.


With players being Cuts and ineligible to play when they reach a season of $7M or more, the average Joes are more important and contribute more since they don't have to play against players with stud seasons.

Thanks for looking.

This team is only 3 games out of first place in the NL East. This is NOT a complete rebuild team. Will likely have a down year next season but then will be very competitive the following season.

Due to the passing of fatguyrd, his team is available.

It won the division in the 73/03 season last year and has some nice pieces going forward.
He was able to complete the draft so all you have to do is Cut the roster down to 25 players.
