Looking for league

jpogue · 12-20-2005, 05:33 PM

I am looking to get back into the swing of online sim baseball leagues by joining a new one. I am from the old school front page sports baseball days and I am looking to start up again. Please let me know if there are any leagues out there that are starting up.

thanks

I have openings in 2 leagues - neither are startups, but one is in just its second season.

Ultra Reality Baseball is getting ready for the 1984 season and features full minors with actual minor leaguers (players enter the league when they first turned pro and are rated using Bill James' Minor League Equivalencies for any season they were in the minors). The available team is the Padres, which has some good talent, including a young Tony Gwynn.

The other league, Greatest Generation Baseball, is a historical-hybrid league, early in its 20th season (1960) and needs a GM to take over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The GGB started with the 1941 season and the idea of what would've happened had the stars of baseball not had to leave for World War II. With the added players, the league added 4 teams in 1946. In 1954, using the Pacific Coast League, the league added 4 more teams and went to a 3-division format, with 4 teams per division, 12 per league, with a wildcard in both leagues.

Beginning with the next season, 1961, the league will add in real minor leaguers (like URB).

Both leagues have very solid GMs - the same guy is responsible for the openings in both leagues (he was the SD and LA GM).

IF you're interested, you can email me at the link on the league's homepage or just send me a private message here.
