This league will use the 16 franchises from the 1901 season, the first year of both the National and American Leagues. To fill out your roster you must take 2 players from each decade as listed below. Your 25th player can be from any season of your franchise. No twisting. Seasons used must be from a season of your chosen franchise. Full or partial seasons are allowed as long as the player is listed as playing for your franchise.

110 mil salary cap
No clones
No AAA

Trades are limited. You are allowed to trade players from same decade only so as not to disrupt the 2 from each decade rule. Also trade can't create a clone situation.
