SOLD OUT: $1,300 AL Auction League

[Greg Ambrosius]

Each year our private high-dollar leagues sell out earlier and earlier. That has been the case with the Diamond League, the Ultimate Auction League and even some of the Super Leagues. Now it looks like it's happening with our Las Vegas $1,300 AL and NL Auction Leagues.

We've continued to run these each year in Las Vegas because we do have a die-hard audience that loves the one league format. Now with Houston heading to the American League, we have 15 MLB teams in each league and thus we'll pare down the NL Auction League from 13 teams to 12. The AL-only Auction League and the NL-only Auction League will now have 12 teams per league.

Through last night, we had 9 owners registered for the NL Auction League, giving us ONLY 3 SPOTS LEFT!! Amazing. The AL Auction League is also half full right now. Both auctions will take place on Friday, March 22nd at the Bellagio Las Vegas. Sign up online if you want to secure a spot in either league and don't worry about payment until after Feb. 15th. We don't need your money now, just your commitment!! Thanks all.

Here's the current signup list for both auction leagues:

We have tentatively SOLD OUT the $1,300 NL Auction League in Las Vegas on Friday, March 22nd at 9 am PT as Blair Wendell of Kitchener, Ontario has taken the last spot. Blair competed in both the NL and AL Auction Leagues last year and is returning for the NL and likely both this year as well. He was surprised to see how many signups we had already and was glad to get back into the contest. We're selling out our baseball contests faster than ever before, so don't delay if you want to jump on in. Thanks all.

Again, this is tentative, so if you still have a desire to compete in this contest sign up online or contact me at [email protected]. If anyone drops out of this league, you'll be the first on the list to replace him. Thanks all. Here's the current signup list for this league:
