Multiple parent leagues for a minor league affiliate

ZBGuy · 09-03-2014, 06:53 PM

Pardon if this has been suggested before, but I would like to see the ability for a minor league to share multiple parent leagues. For instance, an American AAA league could have some teams affiliated with MLB teams, and others affiliated with, say, Atlantic League teams.

Is there any chance that this could be implemented?

Share Teams?

That's one way to implement it but that might be more difficult. For the time being I'm mainly interested in two or more leagues having affiliates in one minor league.

I've done some more thinking about this issue and I think the best way to handle it would be to allow leagues to either be a direct affiliate of a higher league (as it is now), or to allow a league to be independent but have the individual teams agree to be affiliates of other teams. This might be more complex to implement than splitting affiliations up at the league level, though.
