League Basics

12 team progressive that started in 1885/1886 and progresses two seasons at a time. We have just finished the 1903/1904 season and will be drafting for the 1905/1906 season soon. Our draft pool will be made up of rookies from 1905 and 1906 as well as free agents who have a player season in 1905 and/or 1906. Players who have a season in both 1905 and 1906 can only be used once, but the owner has the right to choose the season that best fits his team.

Teams not returning are the Milwaukee Brewers and the Chicago Cubs. I will post their rosters below very shortly. Both teams have been competitive over the years and should be serviceable teams going forward. The Cubs pick #6 in the draft and the Brewers pick 3rd.

A few notable rookies in the upcoming draft.......Ty Cobb, Ed Reulbach, Orval Overall, Fred Beebe, Jack Pfiester, Jack Coombs, etc
