American Baseball Legion - Recruiting

Winnipeg59 · 06-26-2025, 07:13 AM

Great, long-running, league with good group of GM's. We sim like clockwork every TWO days (daily in the off-season).
For openings this thread will be bumped with the update so please bookmark to see them first!
Experience is great but we also welcome any GM willing to put in the effort and learn the online game.

Current Openings:

Colorado Rockies - https://statsplus.net/americanbaseba...s/team_39.html
** Current GM has moved to a new team. The Rockies are in good shape, big market, great fan loyalty. Like the Marlins they have a mid-level farm, and remember they play in Denver, so homers galore (you and your opposition).

Florida Marlins - https://statsplus.net/americanbaseba...s/team_41.html
** Not sure where our GM went, but that means an opportunity for you. The Marlins have been to the playoffs the last 4 seasons, but this year are struggling a bit. Decent financial shape. Mid-level farm. But certainly a bit more of a challenge.

I’d like to take the Rockies, please.

Winnipeg59 · 09-03-2025, 08:49 AM

We will have one opening at the end of the current season!

Team TBA
We have a GM departing because of added real life responsibilities.
He is running Texas at the moment. I am just seeing if anyone wants to assume TEX, which would open another team. Watch for more!

Winnipeg59 · 09-23-2025, 09:30 PM

Texas Rangers have opened again.

The GM that recently took over decided to seek a startup MLB league instead.
That means an opportunity for you.

Winnipeg59 · 09-27-2025, 07:49 PM

Just into the 53-54 off-season.
Perfect time to take over Texas Rangers!

Or, if you are a Yankees fan, they can be open too.
Note: They will need work!

Winnipeg59 · 10-05-2025, 09:51 AM

We are approaching 2054 in the game.

You could lead the Texas Rangers!

Or, if you are a fan, the New York Yankees can be yours.
The Commissioner has been running the Yankees and they will need some work.

Elliot1810 · 10-06-2025, 02:54 AM

I will take the Yankees, I like the challenge of a rebuild

Winnipeg59 · 01-02-2026, 09:33 PM

Spring Training 2055 and we need a new New York Yankees GM.
Pretty decent situation to step into.

Check out the league (first post) and team.
Send me a DM if interested

Winnipeg59 · 01-16-2026, 06:51 PM

New opening in ABL.
And a good one.

The defending World Series Champs.
See first post.

It has been a while since we had an opening, but we do now!

The Florida Marlins (2056 version) are in need of a GM.
Review the team and league in the first post and let me know if you are interested in the gig.

Winnipeg59 · 05-20-2026, 06:44 PM

Seeking one for the Florida Marlins!

Check out the team and league. Send me a DM.

Winnipeg59 · 05-24-2026, 05:41 PM

Our Colorado Rockies GM has decided to move to a new challenge, so that leaves two openings.

Colorado Rockies
Florida Marlins

If either interests you, send me a DM.

Note that I will take over whichever remains.
Also note that this coming season will be our last on 26 before migrating to OOTP 27.
