Welcome Back League II Topic

Players leaving teams is a common occurrence but coming back is much less so. Pick a player that left one franchise, played for another and then came back. Pick one season from their first stint and one season from their second. If your player had more than 2 stints with one team, choose 2 stints and one season for each. All players can be twisted to any year of their career and your captain must be on your roster. Blacklisted Captains are listed below, they can be used on your team, just not as a captian. AAA 6/2 below average, no DH, no WW, no trades.

Here's a few examples:

If you choose Greg Maddux, you can pick one Cubs season between 86-92 and another Cubs season between 04-06. So you can pick the 88 and 05 Cubs and twist any players that played for the Cubs those 2 seasons.

If you choose Rickey Henderson, you can pick two out of the four stints he had with the A's (79-84, 89-93, 94-95, 98) or you can choose from either 96 or 97 and 2001 Padres.

Also, please note that your captain must have played on another team, not just signed by another team.

Use a ballpark that was used by your team in one of the seasons you choose
