We have just concluded the 2049 season and find ourselves with two decent openings. Near is a tear down, both in the same, tough, division. Send me a DM if interested.
Seattle Mariners
Texas Rangers

Winnipeg59 · 10-30-2024, 05:10 AM

GM movement, so openings now:
California Angels
Texas Rangers

Two pretty solid teams. TEX a little ahead in the financial situation, but both should contend on the field.

Winnipeg59 · 11-02-2024, 08:41 AM

Still seeking two GM's.
Two openings and a third team could be yours if needed?
Please send a DM here if interested.

Winnipeg59 · 11-05-2024, 06:24 AM

Seeking just one.
Texas Rangers is the opening.
The Yankees could also be available if you really need them.

Send a DM here if interested?

Winnipeg59 · 11-08-2024, 07:54 PM

Need a Texas Rangers GM.

It's 2050 and mid off-season. You can be there Opening Day!
Learn more in the first post. Send me a DM.

Winnipeg59 · 11-11-2024, 07:58 PM

Still need one.
Can either be Texas Rangers or, if you need to be the Yankees, I will resign from the New York Yankees and move to Houston.
Review both in the first post.
Send me a DM if interested?

Winnipeg59 · 11-14-2024, 10:18 AM

You can still be in before Opening Day 2050!
Review the teams in the first post. Can be TEX of NYY.

Let me know if you're interested in joining ABL?

Winnipeg59 · 11-17-2024, 07:18 AM

Opening Day 2050 happens Sunday night.
You could take a new GM position with either the Texas Rangers or, if you would rather, the New York Yankees just in time for the new season.

TEX is a great market with fantastic fans, they just need some guidance to put up more wins!

NYY is re-tooling, but they are the Yankees and always can be in the hunt!

Review the assignments in the first post and let me know?

Winnipeg59 · 11-20-2024, 07:18 AM

Pretty quiet in here?

Still seeking a GM for the Texas Rangers or if you really need to be the Yankees we can make that happen too.
Send me a DM if interested.

Winnipeg59 · 12-10-2024, 04:41 PM

Our Texas Rangers GM departed, shortly after taking over, which means an opportunity for you.
You will join the Rangers early in the 2050 season. The rest is up to you.

Review the team and league int he first post. Send me a DM here.

Winnipeg59 · 12-27-2024, 08:14 PM

Oh oh, Texas Rangers open again. Our new GM had some life challenges.
And, if you would rather, the Yankees can also be yours (and I will move to TEX).

Let me know with a DM?

M'sman21! · 12-28-2024, 01:08 AM

Hey is Seattle still open?

Winnipeg59 · 02-13-2025, 02:49 PM

Find ourselves with an opening early in 2051.
You could be next GM of the Arizona Diamondbacks!

Have a look at the league and team in first post and then reach out.

Winnipeg59 · 05-06-2025, 09:42 AM

It's been a while, but we have a new opening in ABL.

The year is 2052 and we're just underway with another season.
The Twins have opened up (but the Yankees can also be available).
See all the details in the first post.
And yes, we will be switching to OOTP 26 after this season.

Minnesota Twins - https://statsplus.net/americanbaseba...s/team_47.html
** The team has been in the post-season the past six years, which includes one championship. Mid-pack farm, a couple of nice players on the roster, and some money. Can you keep them contending?

Winnipeg59 · 05-09-2025, 02:56 PM

Need one.

Can be either of the two teams listed. One is actually open, the other run by the Commissioner who is willing to move is someone is a fan of one but not the other.

Review the league and teams in the first post and let me know.

Winnipeg59 · 05-16-2025, 09:36 AM

We're approaching June in the 2052 season. Yes, this is a long term, stable, great, league!
You can have your choice of the Minnesota Twins or New York Yankees (if you're a fan).

Review the league and teams in the first post and send me a DM.
Last season on 25 btw!
