ORB2- Historical League with twists!
Full League Name (Initials): Other Reality Baseball 2 (ORB2) Main URL: Other Reality Baseball 2 Reports URL: BNN Home Page Boards URL: Other Reality Baseball 2 Forums Commissioner(s) OOTP Forum Username(s): Matt Rectenwald (Recte44) Email Address: mrectenwald@gmail.com OOTP Version: OOTP13 Game Needed: Required Players: Historical (but not recalc'd), we also bring in real life Foreign Players as well as "Scout a Minor Leaguer's", high performing real life minor league players who never made it to the majors. # of Teams: 26 (We are planning to expand in years that MLB did) Export Deadlines Days And Times: Tue, Thu, Sun 8am or pm Central (depends on my fluctuating schedule) League Time Per Sim: 10-11 days (3 sims per one in game month) First Season: 1962 Current Season: 1980 Special Rules & Settings: This is an active WRITING league, please read the Constitution fully before signing up. So what's the twist??? Each season we bring in "defectors", which are foreign stars. We also have a "Scout a Minor-Leaguer" program which uses the Minor League Baseball Reference to bring in players who never made the bigs but will get the shot in our alternate reality. Currently Available Teams: New York Mets, Los Angeles Dodgers, Atlanta Braves Register for our Forums, fill out an application, PM me here, whatever. This is a great "halfway point" between historical and fictional. Real players, some "real fictionals" added, and anything can happen!!!

Pirates gone. Just the Mets now.
86-76 last year, they have some talent. Ed Kranepool is one of the top players in the league, but he's likely to miss most, if not all, of 1978 with post-concussion syndrome. No matter, you still have: Johnny Bench ...among others. PM me!

Two teams currently available as we prepare to start 1979 Spring Training this Thursday evening.
The San Diego Padres enter their third year of existence. Richard Berg is a great example of what the Scout a Minor Leaguer Program can do. The [URL="http://baseballretrospective.com/ORB2/OOTPFiles/lgreports/news/html/teams/team_19.html"]San Francisco Giants/URL] finished in 3rd place last year and have a solid roster. John "The Count" Montefusco was a 20 game winner last season, and offensively Dwayne Murphy will try to build on a rookie year where he hit 31 homers and drove in 91. To apply, join the forums (top link) or PM me.

We filled the Padres opening.
Still looking for a Giants GM. May also have an opening upcoming for the Dodgers, but not until we fill the Giants first.
