Baseball Association League The Baseball Association League is completing its 11th season

OVERVIEW:

The Baseball Association League is the first of the Lords of the realm series and is set up to be a challenging and fun league at the GM level. While you can manage yourself, the league is set up to compete at the GM level. The league will have 16 teams, 8 teams will make the playoffs each season. No expansion is planned. Each GM will control what type of scout you want, hire the manager to get the most out of his team, hire coaches, determine scouting and player development strategies for the organization, and make player moves. The league will use the historical/fictional managers developed by Robert McGraw. These managers have the strategy settings pre-set. Thus you will want to hire a manager that fits the style of player you envision for the franchise. Individual managing/overriding the manager settings is allowed but not recommended. Squad, lineup and pitching settings are still done by the GM. The financial parameters each GM will have to manage will be very tight. To consistently succeed you must be better than your peers at both on and off field performance (e.g. win titles and make profits).

The league uses historical teams at the start of baseball, with fictional players and a set of historical players. The historical players used had to be in the majors for at least 4 years (no cup of coffee guys). Historical players will always start at 18 years of age (e.g. using the Spritze HS database). The historical players will come in at a rate of about 25% to the fictional players. Historical players arrive randomly.

While our date is historical, it is modern day league with modern day parameters. We do use historical schedules, so double headers are part of the schedule.

League Operation

League is run with precision by a knowledgeable Commish. Timely sims with a good pace. Great to play with the old time teams and uni's that have players throughout history on the rosters.

Holy Crap I like the way this league sounds, and if Pittsburgh is open I'd love to take them. If not I'd take any team. Really wanna see these manager settings!

Anyways let me know if u have an opening. Been playing ootp for 4 years, been in a couple leagues, but I've been in a hiatus the last couple months. Anyways this would be my only league so I'd have plenty of time to dedicate to it.
