6/15/20244 Openings in Gus's AYLGusPC13
4 openings in the very unique "All Yankees League". You don't have to like the Yankees to join. I don't like them at all and I'm the Commish!! League is made up of players who played for the Yanks from 1961 to the present, divided up into teams based on who else they played for during their career, plus some of the all-time greats from the past. There are also 2 Yankee teams with players who played exclusively for the Yanks. The Astros, Mets, Angels and Jays are available. No contracts/progressions. New players join the league every time the Yanks make a deal or sign a Free Agent, which happens a lot! A few twists to keep things interesting. Come check it out. Preparing for Season 23 so a great time to join.
