[u:0672efc951][b:0672efc951]TRADING[/b:0672efc951][/u:0672efc951]

No trading across card sets.

You have the rights to all of the players that qualify as a franchise player (according to # of cards/ABs/IPs) even if they don't make your active roster.

If you trade a player, the manager that received him in the trade has the exclusive rights to him from that point forward. Cutting a player does not relinquish the new manager's rights to that player.

Also, you can trade players that you have rights to, even if he is not on your active roster. As long as the trade is communicated here or in the specific league email system, and is confirmed by both managers, it is a binding trade. Once the seasons are running, you can use the regular trade function in the league.

You choose two franchises and you have them in all three leagues. I take Baltimore and Texas and get their players throughout.

Fun format.
