Lead Story - 11/12/2025

Welcome to the 1903 League!

Put the team you desire IN THE CHAT BOX. First come, first served. Pittsburgh is taken. (I put all the teams in my name so that no one can be assigned to a team by the computer, and make changes to it, until I assign a player to the team.)

Bravos42: BRS
Grumpyoldman: NYY
Shamsyfan: CIN
Phillyfan: PHA
Rosilver: CHC

Coach Pappy 17: STL


I have made attempts to make this league like real life: 2 leagues, one pennant winner in each league, until 1962. At the same time, I have added some characteristics to help any team be competitive:

1) 26/7 rosters: This prevents a championship team from stockpiling stars for the future. The depth they accumulate will be offered to struggling teams through waiver claims to help hasten rebuilding.
2) Unpredictable progression: Every progression is different. Even if you have been in a similar league in the past, unpredictable progression makes this league different.
3) 3 season initial imports: You start with an initial season, plus two years of imports. Also, you can stat change those players to any of those first 3 seasons. There is just so good a top team can be: this helps lesser squads close that gap.
4) Unlimited stat changing every year: if you got a raw deal through progressions, you can stat change players to their real stats.

Go get 'em!
