Want something a bit different in a fictional league? The World Baseball Hierarchy (WBH) is a long-running promotion/relegation league with a unique structure based on the 2006 World Baseball Classic. It's a promotion/relegation structure in a hierarchy; play in one of 7 country leagues, trying to fight your way to the top (winning the USA Championship). Currently, we're in our 21st season, but we're just getting started; we expect to go for many years to come.

We're looking for owners who can stick around for a while; we pride ourselves on our rich history.
AVAILABLE TEAMS:
Jeonju Jays. An interesting team to pick up: they have had past success, but a long-time GM had to leave, and since then have been floundering. Can you restore the team to its former glory?
Changsha Dragon Riders. This hapless franchise desperately needs an owner who sticks with the team. They've been the whipping boys of the bottom-tier Canada league for a few seasons now.
Toronto Sting. The Sting are an up and down franchise that has hit their low point. They need someone to restore a winning attitude.
