Based on some ideas provided in the Think Tank, I think there is a good structure set up for this league. The basis is that it mimics the old school days of baseball when there was the reserve clause and no free agency. Players that were cut from teams could be given some offers with relative bidding between GMs, but for the most part, the best players stuck with their teams for their career. This would be a simple franchise league with moves done at the league page except for a period in the off-season.NATIONAL LEAGUENew York Giants Philadelphia Phillies St. Louis Cardinals - nerwffejCincinnati Reds - BHowsChicago Cubs Boston Braves Brooklyn Dodgers Pittsburgh Pirates - ColbyAMERICAN LEAGUEChicago White Sox Boston Red Sox Cleveland Indians Detroit Tigers Washington Senators New York Yankees - sportsdoc55St. Louis Browns Philadelphia Athletics 16 teams with 40-man rosters... positions are C, 1B, 2B, 3B, SS, OF, OF, OF, SP, SP, SP, SP, SP, SP, RP, RP, RP. There isn't much of a bullpen, and a 6-man rotation is offered. Extra emphasis will be placed on certain stats. The above franchises will take over the real-life rosters of today (as of a date, oh say March 15th)... and then the teams can bid on the remaining players via FAAB at the league site.No contracts, no salaries, no keeper restrictions at all. In-season FAAB is $50 and off-season FAAB is $100. There is no rollover of budgets between seasons. Use it or lose it.
