The Jubilee Progressive is based off of ancient biblical times when every 7 years, debts would be forgiven and slaves set free. In our league, every 7 season, all players revert to their actual real-life franchise. In between those seasons, you get to draft and trade to improve your franchise. This helps keep our franchises at least resembling their real-life counterparts, forgives the sins of those who have drafted/traded poorly, and keeps those who have drafted/traded well from building unstoppable juggernauts. 20 teams, DH in AL only.

The draft order is determined by upon the reverse order of the teams' real-life records, so there is no incentive for tanking, and teams whose players had down years in real-life are more likely to get better draft picks in our league.

We're about to go into 1994, which is a second year of the jubilee cycle. The Giants had their real-life team in 1993. The previous owner selected their keepers (below), but you can switch those if you want. You'll draft to fill your team to 25 players out of the rookies and free agents. You get to draft/trade each season until the next Jubilee reset which will be in 1999. The Giants are a good team, coming off a World Series win. They traded away their 1st and 2nd round picks, but also traded for another team's 1st and 2nd round picks, so it comes out pretty even.

If you're interested, please let me know. Please ask if you have more detailed questions about the rules, and I can get you into our private forum to read all the specifics.
