If we go with the 'primary' team and 'secondary' team approach then one suggestion is if I trade a player on my primary team he stays traded as long as he is on my team that season. For example TEX is my primary I can trade Danny Darwin and he stays traded until be moves to MIL. This is unfair to the person picking up the Darwin because they will lose him, but it still may work in pratice. Or do traded players stay traded no matter what, unless they are dropped at which time the revert to their real life team. This could mess up secondary owners, but then that is the risk of secondary picking. As in I can pick the Red Sox, but Boggs was traded so I don't get him. :(

With the secondary teams being swapped around each year there will be player movement. A good as this idea is, it is still not up to par with the decade (genius idea) concept IMO.

I was thinking if it's primary and secondary teams, that secondary team's players can only be traded for the remainder of that season, while a primary team player's rights can be traded for the remainder of time that the player was with the primary team in real life.

So, in the example you gave, the guy who has TEX as their primary team trades Darwin and the team getting him would keep Darwin until he becomes MIL property (based on real life). The team getting Darwin would of course look into how many years he'd get to keep Darwin before making the deal. (BTW, I'd like to be in the division with the guy who has Texas as their primary team, :D )

If TEX was a secondary team, then Darwin's rights would only belong to the team he was traded to until the end of the season.

That is pretty easy to track and implement.

So what's wrong with Texas Mr British Columbia?

From this site, you can link to all the teams through the 80s (and other decades). Remember you would be able to use any player that played for one of your teams for that year. For example, if you have the Yankees and it's 1982, you can use Don Mattingly, as he played 7 games in pinstripes that year -- rather than waiting for 1984 when the first season is on his card.

There are other similar sites, too, like baseball-reference. I like this one because you can get players' batting and pitching splits.

i was thinking along the lines that if a player got traded then the team that recieved him would have to compensate them with a free agent pick in the vincinity of the traded players salary...

but the above idea would be more easily to keep up withand i think over the course of 10 seasons or so that would be the way to go.....

just putting my 2 cents in.....

I'll provide a excel workbook with the data we need. Player, Year, Team for all 80's players. Expect a preview tomorrow

I'd be interested as an alternate also...but it looks like this will fill. Maybe us alternates should try to start our own decade league?
