The Rewrite History Progressive League II needs one team going into the 1933 season. A majority of rules are as follows:
We are using the Alternate WIS format C (162 games, 12 teams, 6 NL, 6 AL)
No Cap
No DH
6/6 below average AAA
No injuries
Draft order: Draft order for future rookie drafts will be held just as they are in our league now with the first four rounds for players playing for your team only and then open to everyone. Draft Order will be a straight worst to first records by season's end record. There are some fairly bad teams during this time and I don't want to have to punish teams who are really bad by missing out on someone that may help them out. If it's obvious that a team is tanking on purpose (playing players out of position, starting exhausted pitchers when rested pitchers are available, etc. then the commissioner reserves the write to impose a draft position penalty on that team. This action will only take place in extreme situations and I will consult with other managers to discuss an appropriate penalty.
Once drafted players can be traded to any team without restrictions.
In the first 4 rounds of the drafts, players may only be drafted by teams they played for at one time in their career. This is to be decided by their franchises in baseball-reference.com. Some players will be open to all, if they only played for franchises that are not represented in the leauge. Exclusives with only 1 season or less than $5 million in total WIS salary will be exclusive through round 4. After that they will be open to all teams. All remaining exclusives will be voted for by league owners to decide where their exclusive round will be. After that round, they will be open to all teams.
Traded picks are allowed to be dealt in the current draft + 2 seasons ahead, as voted on league wide. For example, if we're in the 1920 draft, only picks up to the 1922 draft will be allowed.
