I have a team in esplanade's league (MLB129342). After 39 games, 22 of 24 teams are within eight games of their Division leader. Only three teams have winning percentages above .600. Assembling a team for this Theme was a challenge, but a rewarding one. I won't be entering a team in this league at this time, but if there are spots available in a couple of weeks, I'll probably reserve one at that time.

Thanks, for your comment. I agree with you. I think there maybe a spot left for you. Please check back.

genemock91; I like & play mostly $100m &/or $120m; however, I wanted this league to be different so I cut a mil $ off the $120m. I will random realign. Hope to see a team from you.

Hagsag glad to see your team entered.

A plea to anyone that has read all the way to here. You are the perfect owner to pick a team that can't miss because all 175 players are ones that we all would love to play with. Check out the names one more time. The hard part is not picking the six other players in each box.
