There have been a lot of great franchise leagues, the constant is that the Yankees-Dodgers- Giants- Cards etc all get picked early and if you sign up late or get a low randomizer number you are left picking between the Reds and the Pirates.
So this league flips the franchises, I have eliminated the most popular 9 franchises. There are as follows
Yankees-Giants-Dodgers-Braves-Cards-Indians-Cubs-A's-Red Sox
Player must be carded for your franchise but you can use any card in the set. So Piazza is exclusive to the Mets but you can use a Dodger card for him. If a player is carded to more than one team then he belongs exclusively to the team with the higher salary. For ex Frank Robinson is exclusive to the Orioles but the Orioles can use the Reds card.

is this expansion or the whole ATG 8 set?
I guess the older teams would have much more to pick from if it is the whole set.

any ballpark is fine. trades can only be made if players are carded for both teams. all players on roster at all times must have card for its team.


The ballpark rule is a deal breaker for me. My experience has been that you end up with everyone in the same 3 or 4 parks and it detracts from the franchise aspect of the theme.

I'd definitely be for limiting ballparks to any used by your franchise during its history.
