20th Century Keeper League :: 1990s and beyond

forgive the spelling

I hadn't thought about that

Pure relief pitchers per decades
- 1909 (10)
1910 (0)
1911 (11)
1910 - 1919 - (56)
1920 -1929 - (32)
1930 - 1939 - (31)
1940 - 1949 - (46)
1950 - 1959 - (56)
1960 - 1969 - (79)
1970 - 1979 - (78)
1980 - 1989 - (139)
1990 - - (47)

OK, so let's say the 1st season RPs are carded in 1911 or before

that works for me

What do you say? Want to go back to the 20th century?

I was concerned that the 10 pure RPs available in the 1900s might be too scary to use, but they all look pretty good, so I think we're okay with just adding in the 1911 ones.

The other roster limiting factor is on catchers:

You must choose exactly 10 pitchers. At least:
5 of your pitchers must have a starting pitcher endurance rating (e.g. S6).
4 of your pitchers must have a relief pitcher endurance rating (e.g. R2).
... including 3 of which must be "pure" relievers (i.e. a relief rating but no starter rating).
You must choose exactly 15 hitters.
2 of your hitters must be eligible to play catcher.

We're okay with this, though. By my count, there are 34 catchers available through 1909.

All of the info gathered so far about the league has been posted in a Google doc at

This includes a separate tab for ballparks and one for the Negro League players. Those 128 all-stars have been assigned to decades as shown there. The 1920s was apparently the heyday of their leagues, because the vast majority of the stars played then.

Whenever logically consistent, players have been assigned to the 1910s or 1930s, so as to spread them across our seasons.
