Yeah, it's gonna be hard with none of us having been following baseball at any point in this era.

My team will probably be 40% members of the 1959 White Sox.

I am woefully unprepared but I still want this to start right now.

I call Comiskey.

And I'm open to as long of a preparation period before the draft as you guys like. I'm as unprepared as anyone else. Do you want to wait till after the weekend to start drafting? Or is that too long?

It doesn't make any difference to me, honestly. I'm cool with whenever.

I'd suggest starting no earlier than Monday. We need time to prepare for this tournament because, like others have mentioned, we aren't too familiar with the ins and outs of this era. Also, I'm going out of town 'til then.

I hope someone takes the Polo Grounds. I'd take it if I didn't have an absurd emotional attachment to Comiskey Park.

We'll leave the sign up open for a few more days, but we're at ten now. Who's still left that was in one of the other three tournaments? EJ, 4/5...

Being a Ranger fan I didn't know what park to pick. I took Ebbets due to my love of the book Boys of Summer. RFK Stadium was kind of a dump.
