Posted: Sun Apr 03, 2022 6:36 pmThe league will be 115 MIL with DH. 5/10/20 drop.
All players who have a card in the set between 1940-1973 (inclusive) plus the NEL guys are eligible. However, if a player is eligible, any of that players cars may be used. As an example, Charlie Gehringer has a 1940 card, so he is included in the set. But, you can use ANY of his cards, not just his 1940 card.
We will use cities and ball parks tied to those cities (or at least the franchise tied to those cities) that are from this time period. The eastern division will include Boston, New York, Brooklyn, and Baltimore. The central division will include Washington, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, and Cleveland. The western division will include Detroit, Kansas City, St. Louis, and Chicago.
Once we have 12 signees, we will randomize for city assignments.
Each of the teams(cities) has ONE player already under contract. Everyone else is a free agent available to all. See below for cities, ballparks, and the one player already assigned to each team.
