A reminder that you need to pick a ballpark with one of your picks, so like in round 4 or 5. Here again is the rule about ballparks:
BALLPARKS
Unique ballparks, to be picked during the 60s Pre-Decade Draft. Teams will remain in the same ballpark for all 3 seasons in a decade.
Here’s the twist: if you have a ballpark in one decade that doesn’t exist in the following decade (for example Connie Mack Stdm in the 60s), you must use a pick in the Pre-Decade Draft to pick a new park. If you have a ballpark that does exist in the following decade, you have the choice of keeping that park in the next decade or giving it up and using a Pre-Decade Draft pick to choose a new one.
For example, if you take Wrigley Field in the 60s, you could keep this ballpark over all 5 decades, but you could give it up for another park after any decade. If you take Exhibition Stadium in the 80s, you’ll need a new ballpark for the 90s. Whether a ballpark continues to exist is based on whether it’s the same physical structure (even if renovated), not based on whether the name changed or not. (Edit: Yankee Stadium is a 5-decade ballpark, as the old one is the one used in the 2000s.)
