once it fills, just get someone not involved in the league to go to:

and run a 1-12 randomizer

Presume that the intention of the rules makes Grich not exclusively Baltimore as he has a 70's with CAL.
There may be others, but can you confirm my understanding? Grich is eligible to be drafted by Bal or Cal only but not exclusively Bal's as originally listed?

canauscot, your understanding is correct and great catch on Grich. I've corrected Baltimore.

Just doing some random checking on guys that played for two or more clubs during that time frame and found a few that weren't exclusively with the team they're listed for. Jerry Mumphrey (STL) had a year with NYY;Joel Youngblood (NYM) had a year in SF: Curt Blefary (NYY) also played in BAL and HOU: Kiko Garcia(BAL) also played in HOU: Lamar Johnson (CWW) had a year in TEX; Fred Gladding (HOU) had a year in DET; John Boccabella (MON) had some generqlly forgettable years with CHN; Dalton Jones (DET) spent most of his time in BOS; Larry Herndon (SF) had a year in DET. Probably need to scrub the list before teams are selected, may make some difference.

evanthomas, I think all those players that you listed have carded years for other teams that are outside the 70s - for example, Youngblood has years for the Giants in the 80s and Blefary and Gladding had years for other teams in the 60s. But in this league, we are only counting carded years from the 70s. Any years from the 60s or 80s are disregarded.

That said, if I have made any mistakes, please point them out and I'll correct them. However, once a team has been selected, then we will abide by the listed players. I'll try to have the free agents completed within the next 24 hours.

I assume Washing Senators = Texas Rangers.

Also a player like Tom House who has 3 years with ATL and 2 with Seattle Mariners would be considered an ATL only player since we are not using the Mariners. Balor Moore is another example.

Wynn is listed as a Dodger, but should be available to Houston & Atlanta.

Yes, Senators are Rangers. The Rangers are an eligible team; however, I didn't list the Rangers or Indians because I thought that they did not have enough good players to make a competitive team, but they can be selected, you just need to identify the players eligible for those teams. The Mariners and Blue Jays can't be selected because they don't have enough players to field a team.

thanks for the correction on Wynn. He is a possible free agent for LA but not an LA-only player.
