The Unofficial SDMB OOTP (Out of the Park) League has an opening. We’re an easy-going league which has been going on for 15 years (seriously, we started the league in [this thread](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=146610&highlight=ootp), which I started 15 years ago tomorrow) and will soon be starting our 30th season. If you’re not familiar with Out of the Park Baseball, it’s a baseball simulation game where you take the role of General Manager. You draft players as high schoolers and college players, assign them to your minor league teams, trade, promote/demote and release them and so on. You negotiate trades with other owners in the league, set the lineups and budgets for scouting, development and so on. Spring Training on our 30th season is starting now. Feel free to check out our league at our [league blog](http://sdmbootp.blogspot.com/) and look around the [league reports](http://www.steinhardtfamily.com/ootp/ootp13/reports/news/html/leagues/league_100_home.html). The team that is available is the Atlanta Hurricanes. If you join before the start of the season, you will be able to move/rename your team. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
