Alltime Baseball League
Note: This is restart of the ABL thread I started a few weeks ago, as I went in and re-rated every player in the game in the same detail I did my old Pastime Baseball League thread. Much happier now, so...we proceed Gonna repost the few setup posts with players and then get started!
I have always been a tremendous fan of cross-era matchups. Way back when, I released a Franchise Stars roster set for OOTP, featuring the best players to play for each team. Several years later, I would run a longstanding dynasty called the Pastime Baseball League, which brought together players of all eras. I ran a boxing universe under the same premise. I haven't had the game in several years, "real life" getting in the way. But when I got the email about the recent discount, I decided to grab the latest version of a game I always enjoyed. A writer by trade, my favorite part of the game was writing dynasties. I love the writing, but also the discussion with other board members about its goings on. And so comes my latest dynasty, which I hope will be as well received as the priors: The AllTime Baseball League will feature 16 teams in 2 leagues, each with two divisions of 4 teams. There will be no wild card. Division champs advance, that's it. There are no minor leagues. Each team will have a 25-man roster and a 15-player reserve roster. The player pool is as such: All players at each position have been arranged by WAR. The top 200 at C and IF positions, the top 500 outfielders, the top 1000 starting pitchers and the top 300 relievers earn eligibility. From there, a random generator listed the players in no particular order. The first 50 at C and the IF positions, first 165 outfielders, first 225 starters and first 80 relievers, are eligible for the inaugural draft. Again, these are NOT the top players at each position, they are just the first listed after randomizing the order of the top players. Each year's amateur draft will be 100 players, a draft of 5 rounds, including the next few players at each position in the order after the randomization mentioned above. I will not control any teams, so I'll just be observing along with all of you! Reports will be monthly writeups, converting to day-by-day for pennant races over the final two weeks of the season and the postseason. While I set get the league set up (I have to get the initial draft class imported), I'm going to post the initially eligible players who will be part of the ABL's kickoff! Questions, comments, etc. always welcome! Thanks for stopping by! GH

The ABL second base crop is weak, with only one Top 10 player in the initial pool, though the next guy on the list is a Hall of Famer as well.
Code:

Third base is highlighted by my favorite non-Met of all time AND the quintessential Met killer. But they are the only two top 10 players in the initial pool.
Code:
5 George Brett 88.4 6 Chipper Jones 85 16 Robin Ventura 55.9 22 David Wright 49.9 25 Matt Williams 46.4 26 Gary Gaetti 42 28 Carney Lansford 40.2 31 Bill Madlock 38 32 Troy Glaus 37.9 33 Eric Chavez 37.4 35 Josh Donaldson 37.3 36 Art Devlin 36.6 51 Al Rosen 32.6 55 Edgardo Alfonzo 28.7 58 Harry Steinfeldt 28.5 60 Freddie Lindstrom 28.3 61 Melvin Mora 28.2 67 Red Smith 27 75 Hank Thompson 24.8 74 Mike Lowell 24.8 80 Bill Mueller 23.8 83 Jimmy Austin 22.6 91 Don Hoak 21.2 92 Lee Tannehill 20.9 93 Matt Carpenter 20.4 94 Pete Ward 20.2 99 Lave Cross 19.4 100 Vinny Castilla 19.3 107 Grady Hatton 17.8 108 Dave Hollins 17.7 121 David Bell 15.2 127 Billy Johnson 14.7 126 Joe Crede 14.7 128 Paul Schaal 14.6 131 Bobby Byrne 13.9 133 Morgan Ensberg 13.8 148 Randy Jackson 12 155 Roy Howell 10.9 156 Mike Pagliarulo 10.6 159 Les Bell 10.5 161 Leo Gomez 9.9 164 Jack Howell 9.7 172 Luis Valbuena 8.9 180 Bill Coughlin 8.5 177 Mark Reynolds 8.5 183 Gene Freese 8.2 194 Tim Hulett 6.7 193 Jack Hannahan 6.7 196 Bobby Brown 6.6 198 Mike Cubbage 6.5

The outfield class speaks for itself, even without the top 2 outfielders eligible for the ABL's start. Remember, for outfielders it's the top 500 eligible for the league, with a random 165 eligible for the initial draft.
Code:
3 Willie Mays 156.2 4 Ty Cobb 151 10 Mickey Mantle 109.7 14 Roberto Clemente 94.5 19 Sam Crawford 73.2 21 Larry Walker 72.6 22 Harry Heilmann 72.1 25 Tim Raines 69.1 30 Duke Snider 66.5 32 Andre Dawson 64.5 45 Vladimir Guerrero 59.3 50 Bob Johnson 57.2 52 Jim Wynn 55.6 57 Jose Cruz 54.2 59 Vada Pinson 54.1 61 Jack Clark 52.8 71 Ellis Burks 49.6 72 Bernie Williams 49.5 73 Larry Doby 49.5 75 Ralph Kiner 49.3 76 Earl Averill 48 81 Kiki Cuyler 46.7 82 Mike Cameron 46.5 83 Dale Murphy 46.2 84 Willie Wilson 46 86 Rusty Staub 45.8 89 Ryan Braun 45.6 92 J.D.

The ABL inaugural draft's starting pitcher class is led by The Franchise, but if you're a fan of the 90s Braves, you'll be excited that the triple threat are all eligible as well.

And lastly the relievers, which is obviously loaded toward more modern players. But I feel like relieving has become such a role, that relievers merited eligibility separately as opposed to just saying the top pitchers on WAR, which would've put less-than-journeyman starters ahead of guys who were real solid relievers, and that didn't seem right to me. So...here they are!

Off to the Races
Louisville Thoroughbreds make Wagner top pick LOUISVILLE - The Alltime Baseball League draft kicked off with the Louisville Thoroughbreds drawing the first choice in the star-studded draft. And their pick is one nobody can question. Manager Sparky Anderson's squad made shortstop Honus Wagner the first choice in the inaugural ABL draft, and the superlatives flown about the 23 year old. But the biggest is simple: he has no weakness. The consummate five-tool player, Wagner is expected to slot into the heart of Louisville's order and anchor the most important defensive slot in the field. Perhaps the only criticism of Wagner is he isn't graceful...just productive. "Nobody ever saw anything graceful or picturesque about Wagner on the diamond. His movements have been likened to the gambols of a caracoling elephant. He is ungainly and so bowlegged that when he runs his limbs seem to be moving in a circle after the fashion of a propeller. But he can run like the wind," said one scout. When reached for comment, Wagner politely declined to say much, answering with no sense of arrogance to his words, "I don't make speeches. I just let my bat speak for me in the summertime." The Thoroughbreds hope it'll speak starting in the spring.
