Here’s what we’re doing…
 
 
Pretty simple: All of the modern National League franchises (1903 through 2013) will be listed.  When it's your turn to select a team, pick a franchise and then pick a 10-year span of that franchise and build your roster. Ten years may look like 1977-1986 or 1999-2008 or anything similar. It can’t look like 1940-1950 as that would be “11” years.

Also, if you want to choose a franchise that played both in the N.L. and the A.L., at least five if not more of the seasons you want to play with had to have been in the National League. 

Plus, just to make it a bit more interesting to build your rosters, let’s make sure there’s at least one pitcher and one position player from each of your ten years. That’s twenty players – the other five can come from any of the ten years you’re building with. There will be no IP and PA requirements in this round.
 

Obviously, more than one individual can choose the same franchise, but their years cannot overlap at all. If someone wants the 2004-2013 Giants and someone wants the 1994-2003 Giants, that’s fine.
 
 
Alignment will be in conjunction with the Draft Order. The first four selections in each league will make up the N.L. East, the next four selections will make up the N.L. Central, and so on.
 
 
Here are some other items of interest:
 
NO: Waiver Wire, Trades or A.A.A.
NO: Designated Hitter.
NO: Clones.
NO: Injuries – They’ll be Turned Off.
 
You may use either full or partial players seasons in this round.
 
CAP – $110M
 
Stadium – You must use a park that your franchise called home during your team’s time-span.
 

Who Moves On?
 
Once Round FIVE is complete, the eight playoff teams from the two leagues will automatically earn a spot in the Final Round – Round Six of the tournament. That’s sixteen spots spoken for. The final eight teams will come from the best of the other 32 teams across the two leagues. Again, this will give everyone something to keep playing for, even if your team isn’t very competitive in your division or for the wildcard.

FWIW, I was going to choose that exact Cardinals team.

New York Giants 1909-18
Los Angeles Dodgers 1963-72

Well your Cub selection was the first one I had on my board, so we'll see which one is the best pick (probably neither!)

Sadly for both of us, you're probably right.

Check available years on Giants. Should be some 20's still available? The list shows no?

No Giants years in the 20s are available...

You have to have 10 consecutive years...since I chose the seasons 1909-18 and mllama chose 1924-33, that leaves only 1919-1923 (5 seasons)...so those seasons are no longer available in this round.
