Quick info on the OBL, which is an outstanding league run by our two commissioners Kelric & BDog.

Scouting is off, 1-10 rating scale, with stars.

AAA, AA, A minor league systems. Database includes players such as Josh Gibson & Satchel Paige - both currently in the league.

Amateur Draft & Free Agency are both done in-game. OOTP9 is required.

Finances are on, trading draft choices is allowed, injuries are set to low or very low.

It's a historical league, with a twist where we have the NL & AL split into two divisions of 4 teams each - resulting in a League Championship Series each season.

You don't need to write or anything like that. We simply require an owner that will take part in polls or any important league matters/discussions. After a number of different Yankee owners, we won't take a first-timer or somebody that will lose interest if they don't come in first place at some point soon.

The Yankees need a new owner that will stand up to the menace which has become the Boston Red Sox within the AL East. It will be a challenge, but you have Joe DiMaggio and there has to be a Yankees fan out there that is up to the task.
