Did Sisler continue being an absolute stud?
After my Point Loma Indians got relegated, I nearly got relegated again in diamond

We made the World Series but lost to Big Bang Quasars, a team with 22 perfects. Sisler had another 4 WAR season with fewer (16) homers but 51 doubles and 40 stolen bases.

I hope we can get this theme league going so we could play together again. Your Indians would be a great fit there.

Three top historical diamonds. I forget who... didn't matter. I was a grease spot in the road anyway.

I just started an all Yankees theme yesterday, so its going to take a while to get up to everyone's level

I have an all-Tigers themed team that is currently in Diamond. robtoml is the username, and the team name is the Motor City Togers.

I also have an all-Future Legend team currently in Perfect League under the username DishTwitch, called the New Orleans Nostalgia. Don't know about the ethics of one person being in the same league as another account of that person, but it's there!

Hey, I think we were in the same league last season! I was the Battle Creek Maple Syrup Cartel.

And we are together again this year (P405)!

I have a Diamond level New York team.

In the age of political correctness, there are Yankees, Mets and Brooklyn Dodgers coexisting as the Old York Yankopolitans.

Level: Diamond
Manager: nyny
Name: Old York Yankopolitans

Pittsburgh themed team here in it's first Diamond season. Won a Bronze level series a few weeks ago. Cards are not limited to Pirate seasons or even players that only played in the Pirates' organization. Had to expand the theme to former coaches (i.e. Frankie Frisch) or players born in the Pittsburgh area (i.e. Stan Musial, Dick Allen, Ian Happ).

thanks for all the responses from the Discord folks! I will update the list later today

Since it's the Steel City, you can consider Ricky Henderson, Lou Brock, et al.

Yeah, it's getting to the point that I may have to find novel ways to continue competing with this theme due to the lack of quality, affordable Pittsburgh players. The Diamond Vaughan, Bonds, and Wagner cards will always be out-of-reach while Blyleven, Blanton, and Kluszewski are over-priced. I did win an auction last week for Tiny Bonham, but my only Diamond card is Gerrit Cole. Still managing a bullpen with 6 Silver cards!


I'm hoping that Gold cards for Lloyd Waner, Freddy Sanchez, Tekulve, and Pie Traynor are added before OOTP20.

This is a Mets theme team, with any player who has (or will) appear for the Mets. Currently Gold level hoping to go up

[screamingpalm]

I'm definitely interested! I have two theme teams, so either one works for me. (3 if you count my all-iron team hehe).

Team: Baltimore Orioles
username: screamingpalm

Team: Seattle Mariners
username: AncientMariner

Both are currently in Gold leagues

Correction- Mariners in Gold, Orioles in Silver... which is crazy since my Orioles team won over 100 games the previous week lol.

I won't! But would you mind letting me know the league level, and also what your theme is?


Thanks!

My username is edmc9, them name is "Dacula Braves". The team to 100% Braves franchise, so includes Bees and Beaneaters. Actually this is my first team. I am in Diamond, if the season ended today I would be demoted; but I have never been demoted because other teams start tanking, subtly. I bet I will be in Diamond for a long time as I am not sure all Braves will ever be strong enough to make it to Perfect.
