After a night to sleep on it, I have narrowed things down to three options.

1. Keep the theme as is, hope for a massive slump to get into the relegation places back to Iron and maybe "git gud" at investing in proper players with the increased points flow to come next week.

2. Broaden the theme and turn the team into a full-fledged Senior Circuit squad, making all teams that have ever been in the National League eligible, thus giving me a bigger pool of players to choose from and still maintaining a theme that even a blithering idiot like me can win with.

3. Scrap the theme entirely and allow all non-LIVE and Future Legend cards to qualify. (I'd prefer not to do this one. We'll call this the nuclear option.)

Now, the criteria for #2 would be interesting, because the Brewers are now in the NL and the Astros are now in the AL. I have outlined the qualifying teams. For some, the years of player qualification is also listed. No years around them indicate that all players from the franchise history are eligible for use.

TEAMS ELIGIBLE UNDER THE GUIDELINES OF PROPOSAL #2
Arizona Diamondbacks
Atlanta Braves
Brooklyn Dodgers (1890-1957)
Chicago Cubs
Cincinnati Reds
Colorado Rockies
Florida Marlins (1993-2011)
Houston Astros (1962-2012)
Los Angeles Dodgers (1958-2018)
Miami Marlins (2012-2018)
Milwaukee Brewers (1998-2018)
Montreal Expos (1969-2004)
New York Giants (1900-1957)
New York Mets
Philadelphia Phillies
Pittsburgh Pirates
San Diego Padres
San Francisco Giants (1958-2018)
St. Louis Cardinals
Washington Nationals (2005-2018)

Input is allowed (and encouraged) on this matter. Keep in mind that I want to get back to looking like a competent baseball team as soon as possible. Competent being 85-90 win potential.
