Please if your not 30 years old DON'T waste your time applying! It's nothing personal, but I prefer the older crowd for this online franchise.

The teams are given by where you currently lived or a team closest to where you live to prevent guys from only taking the top teams. **[No Exceptions!]**

This league will always remain active with our owners only having to play just 3 to 4 games a week [That's only one 3 or 4 game series.]

I am looking for mature adults at least 30 years or older who play this game realistically. Myself I am 55 years old and looking for other older gamers who want to be in a simulation style MLB online franchise with other older gamers like myself who play with common courtesy and respect. I do not put anyoone into this online league with a WIN AT ALL COST mentality.

I have had a set of mandatory rules everyone reads and agrees to before even getting there league invite. I first began on MLB 2K7 and still around this long using the same kind of setup.

This MLB THE SHOW 26 online franchise will begin on Tuesday 04/25/26. We will begin our journey of a full 162 game full season playing every day and will continue to do so through out the year until we crown a World Series Champion sometime of March 2027.

"I am real big on common courtesy and sportsmanship. This group I have built we are a brotherhood and we all our all about "FAIR PLAY" We are a MLB The Show 26 league that is as close to a online franchise there is.
