1998 Space Age team -- Do you love the long ball?! Topic

A long-time owner is MIA, so we have an opening in the 1998 Space Age Progressive League.

Space Age is a 20-team league that uses a 4-year cumulative win total to determine draft order. There's a 20-keeper limit each season, which keeps rosters fresh and the trade wire active.

No trade vetoes; DH in both leagues; most teams play in historic ballparks or may change to current home park.

If you like the long ball, this team is for you! Will need some pitching upgrades, but they're going to knock the stuffing out of the ball this season. Team plays in Comiskey (I), has 10th pick in this year's draft, and owns all of its picks. Will need to get down to 20 keepers (players in red are suggested cuts with a couple others on the fence).

We're hoping to start the draft this week, so hop on board today.
