The Super-League is about creating a fantasy fantasy baseball team failure. It is an LP were you spend time trying to create this winning team of players, hoping that they can pull together and survive, and perhaps even win a title.

Your team is almost certainly going to fail at that, and even if they did win, there would then be the matter of the unwinnable Macho Man challenge...


So, pick teams, do your best, and, if you want or need more advice or guidance, go to the Super-League Discord.

Figure it's nigh time I came back. I was actually waiting on the signup period and then didn't notice for four days. I'll admit, I got bored of the Pirates/Sheikhs, there just really wasn't anywhere else to go after that. Probably should have retired the Sheikhs properly but what's done is done. In any case, let's see if I can't start over from the beginning and make things interesting.

Teams:
'74 NL All-Stars (5)
'05 Athletics (3)
'63 Reds (2)
'97 Athletics (1)

You're entitled to carry over three players (or robots) from the Sheikhs if you choose.
