NGBL Opening: Minnesota Twins

pallison14 · 07-30-2004, 11:04 AM

The "Next Generation Baseball League" (NGBL) was formed under the concept of owners picking current teams and then simulating 10 years into the future to give the league a fictional feel, yet also preserving the MLB roots. Two calendar years and 7 seasons have now passed since the inception of the league and the fictional players are almost in full swing giving the league it's own unique personality. We have since expanded to 32 teams and continue to make changes (must be put to ownership vote) to improve the league. The league features an incredibly active ownership base that is serious about baseball, but also not afraid to let loose and have alot of fun.

We currently have 1 opening, the result of one owners cross country move.

The MINNESOTA TWINS have been a team on the cusp of the playoffs for the past several seasons, but have been neglected this season and find themselves out of the race. With a dedicated GM and some shrewd trades, the Twins could be right back in it next year. Led by an impressive 1-2 punch in the rotation, the Twins are a big bat away from being in the thick of the competitive AL North.

LEAGUE FEATURES:

- Currently Running OOTP 5x (Plans to convert to v6 next season)
- Heavily customized website (http://www.ngbl.net) that takes BOSI v1x to the extreme
- Marketing revenue split equally among the leagues 32 teams
- Coaches / Scouts turned to OFF.
- RFA: All players 3.5 stars or greater with minimal loyalty will be exposed to a "restricted free agency" type process. These players will be exposed to open bidding, but the current team will also be given a chance to match the winning contract. For anyone tired of leagues that don't have elite players hitting the market should find this very appealing.

Cheers,
