Well...here I come once again to the Progressive League Classifieds with hat in hand...
The Big League is one of the oldest progressives in existence (started by seaphil in December 2004)
The Big League currently has 1 team available - a Texas Rangers team - see the roster below of potential keepers
about the league.....
We don't start posting keepers until mid-May of the following season so owners can do some early season "scouting" about how players may perform in the coming season...
By taking a 2025 team, you're getting the opportunity to play WIS much like a fantasy team...the draft will be challenging since unlike most progressives, there is a relatively short track record on which to base your selection - in other words, you're drafting much more - as in real life - on what you think a player might do in the future than on what you know he will do
The league plays on an annual basis so you get to watch "your" players (if they) play for you in the real season to build up the numbers you will be using in the WIS season
League rules include a requirement of 40 wins by Game 162 to qualify for 1 of the top for picks in Round 1
there is a lottery held among the bottom four qualifying teams to determine first pick in Round 1 in the regular draft
draft order is determined by the Game 162 standings
There is a supplemental AAA draft of real life players - where you can pick up to 5 position players and up to 5 pitchers - they are eligible to be kept for future seasons
there is a maximum of 25 keepers with 1 draft pick for each less than 25 keepers
Players without a current season, but with a future season, may be placed on the IR...no limit on number of players who may be on the IR
DH in both leagues
a position player should be graded at a position to start at that position
No WW
