Free Team! 2BL Progressive needs Replacement Owner Topic

Looking for replacement owner for the MSP Whippets out of Metropolitan Stadium (though can move team). Owner leaving for personal reasons.

Longstanding league entering season 68. 20 team league with 5x4 divisions, DH both leagues, SIM AAA available.

Twist is that we went from 1960/2020 season to 1901/1961 season (the original season) but teams were allowed to keep their current players. So twist is that eg. Ohtani and Soto can be kept on IR until their stats are available again. This team has a few 2025 players on IR including Josh Hader. 2025 stats come out in October 2025.

Lots of fun, many veteran owners, some newby's and league is fairly competitive.

If interested send me a sitemail or post.

If you introduce exclusion of a player I will have to say bubye. We go way back so hoping that "could" was only selling point.

I am a sucker for an outfield that good. I'll commit to at least 3 seasons.
