Brewers League Baseball is expanding again by two more teams.
We're currently entering the 1983 regular season and will be expanding during the off-season. We'd like to pick the two new owners now so they have a season to keep an eye on the league and its players. We're using the same rules we did during our last expansion, which went very smoothly.
If you're interested in the unique challenge of running an expansion team please let me know.
Here are the expansion rules:

Here are the expansion rules:
General
- Adding 2 more teams to the Import league (no DH) after 1983.
- New owners will be able to pick their city and nickname for all 4 levels.
- There will be realignment and the Playoffs expand after 1983.
- Expansion teams will be awarded the 1st and 2nd picks in their first Amateur Draft and their first Rule 5 draft. Draft order will be determined by seperate coin flips and will alternate each round.
Expansion Draft
- There would be 3 Expansion Rounds
- Round 1 would be 28 picks (14 per expansion team)
- Round 2 would be 28 picks (14 per expansion team)

- Existing Teams protect 15 players plus the last 2 drafts. They can add 3 players after each round.
- Teams can lose no more than 2 players in Round 1, 2 players in Round 2 and 1 player in Round 3. This would limit a team's losses to 5 players total.
