We have an established group of GMs from many seasons of history using previous versions. We decided to start fresh using OOTP16 and will start the 2015 season using the actual MLB 2015 Opening Day Rosters. We only have a few teams available and will get started as soon as we fill the open teams. Contact me via email (andymayfield2@gmail.com) if interested and we will get you signed up.

Name is Russ Johnson and I just sent you an email regarding my interest in this online league and if the teams previously listed are available, I would love to use the Texas Rangers, let me know.

Hey Russ! I emailed you back before seeing your post here. I will put you down as the new GM of the Texas Rangers. Glad to have you aboard!

We have one new opening...Tampa Bay Rays. The league date for the league is June 22, 2016 (still in our first season). You will be taking over the same team that the Rays have in real life (for the most part). Email or PM if interested. I can get you set up in game ASAP.

We just finished the 2015 season and starting the off-season right now. We have 5 openings going into the off-season and looking to fill them quickly. If you PM or email me quickly, I can get you access in game very soon since we sim every day during the off-season (to speed it up to get to regular season games as soon as possible).

Most teams resemble the 2015 opening day rosters so you can take over the team and see if you can do better than the current MLB GM.

Current Openings:
Arizona Diamondbacks
Miami Marlins
Pittsburgh Pirates
San Francisco Giants
Tampa Bay Rays

Arizona and Pittsburgh are no longer available but there are still some good teams left.

Our league is very active (over 75% export rate during regular season) and has been around for many real-life years. We went for 20+ seasons using OOTP13-15 before starting with MLB 2015 opening day rosters when we switched to OOTP16 (to keep the modern feel of the league).

Email or PM if you are interested.
