The Space Age Progressive, begun in 1946, is not in its 1966 season. We have a 20-team league, with four divisions.
One long-time owner has decided to leave to take care of some real-life concerns. We need to replace him in time for the 1967 Draft. Draft position is determined by the most recent FOUR-YEAR WON-LOSS RECORD, so that no one season's W-L record can determine placement in the first round. We also have a serpentine draft format.
His team is available. It can be moved to a different available city/stadium if desired (please sitemail commissioner italyprof for available stadiums and cities).
It needs some rebuilding: the team is currently tied for third place in the NL East Division, with a record of 27-76. The team has all of its draft picks, plus an extra 4th round pick for 1967.
The current roster is listed below and below that are the League rules. Please sitemail me if interested.

Space Age Progressive League - 1946 to the present
Rules
- Only players listed in the player pool are eligible for the draft
- Park Selections -You may change to an available park, which will move you to the city as well. We will retain league alignments. An owner may change divisions, but not leagues. For example if a AL owner decides to move to CAL, but he's currently in the PLE, he would move to the PLW and the most eastern team would move to the PLE. If you decide to move, you must do so with one of your regular draft scheduled picks. You will then have an extra pick added to the end of the draft.
- all time slots will be 30 minutes (rounds #6-#10 will be 15min time slots)
- Smail next 2 in line
- If a player is listed who was part of someone's keeper list, then that player belongs to the owner who picked him during the draft. This is why reviewing the player pool to ensure that your guy isn't there is important. The reason for this rule is so that everything is laid out before hand and if we run into the issue it's been addressed. I've seen pools on hold for days because of this exact issue.
- If you make an uneven deal during the draft, or trade away a player for a pick next year you must make up that pick during the supplemental round
- League
- No Cap, No Waiver Wire
- No DH
- the use of SIM generated AAA is prohibited (penalty will be a forfeiture of each game they are used. )
- Transaction deadline for AAA call ups and trades will be set at game 160
- Max Keepers is 20
- 4 year loss total for placement of draft slot with a seasonal loss minimum. It would be a 45 win total by game 162 or that team would get a -10 in the loss column for each win under 45 subtracted from their loss total for that season.
e.g. if a team had 43 wins (119L - (2x10) = 99) That teams Loss number for year X would be 99.
- I.R. Players DO NOT count towards keepers
- snake style draft (even numbered rounds will be reverse order of uneven numbered rounds)
Total Roster can be up to 30
- Able to trade picks 2 drafts in advance eg. during the '46 season you can trade picks for the '47 & '48 draft. After game 162 of '46 you can trade picks for the '49 season
The draft order will be determined for 1967 by the cumulative overall records for the years 1963-66: The Chesapeake Bay team had the fourth best record overall for the four years preceding 1966, but its record this year will move it to a somewhat better position in the first round for 1967, but the final tallies and draft order will not be known until the end of this season.
