There have been a lot of great franchise leagues, the constant is that the Yankees-Dodgers- Giants- Cards etc all get picked early and if you sign up late or get a low randomizer number you are left picking between the Reds and the Pirates.
So this league flips the franchises, I have eliminated the most popular 9 franchises. There are as follows
Yankees-Giants-Dodgers-Braves-Cards-Indians-Cubs-A's-Red Sox
Player must be carded for your franchise but you can use any card in the set. So Piazza is exclusive to the Mets but you can use a Dodger card for him. If a player is carded to more than one team then he belongs exclusively to the team with the higher salary. For ex Frank Robinson is exclusive to the Orioles but the Orioles can use the Reds card.

I understand the high value has rights, but is this only for the draft or entire league? For example, Nolan Ryan's highest card is for the Astros, but if they do not draft him is he available during waivers to the Rangers and Angels or is he forever a Stro?

Ryan is forever an Astro however he could be traded to the Rangers or Angels as long as they get an Astro back in return.
Don't forget though that a lot of big cards open up for example with the Cubs out the Rangers have the rights to the better Jenkins card.

Hitt, just to make sure I understand the trading rules...basically you can trade but only if the players are involved are carded to both partners in the trade?
