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...
I'll take the Polo Grounds.

Thank you, sir. I felt good about that one.

Memorial is yours. It doesn't look like Wrigley Field of LA is an option on the site.

Apparently Luke Easter, Joe Adcock, Hank Aaron, and Lou Brock. Babe Ruth did too, but the dimensions were different when he did I guess.

Huh. I guess I have to pick a new stadium and a new first baseman.

There are a couple that I'm interested in, but since I love old stadiums I'll take one that was demolished 13 years before I was born and move my team to Forbes Field in Pittsburgh.

Are there any rule changes we want to make for this one? Should we revisit the controversial trades/waivers debate?

Count me in the "fuck trades" camp.
