The UBA is a fictional/historical league blend - the 1994 strike never resolves, and the players go off and play in a new league! We started with an inaugural fantasy draft. We are approaching the beginning of the 2011 season. We have an EXTREMELY strong group of GMs - this is the first recruiting post I've had to put on the boards in 18 months real-time. Join now to get used to your new team before the season begins!
We currently have two openings:
1.
Toledo Troutheads (yes DH) - Have been a bubble team for awhile now. Help push them over the top! Top players include recognizable names such as Jason Kipnis, Yeonis Cespedes and prospects: Jose Altuve, Jimmy Nelson, and Anthony Rendon.
2.
Dallas Daredevils (yes DH) - Improving from a brief rebuild, needs moderate work to become a contender. Headlined by a young Josh Donaldson with Wil Myers, Tyler Naquin and Avisail Garcia topping the prospect ranks.
New GM's are allowed to relocate and rename their team after 1 year of service in the UBA.
