Global Baseball Association (GBA)

BACKGROUND/HISTORY-The Global Baseball League started in 1992. Each team protected 10 players from their major league team and the drafting started. The first pick was Cal Ripken (since the Orioles were not one of the original 20). The CUBS (can you believe it?) won the first championship over the Blue Jays. The first player taken in the Phase I draft (Rookie) was Tim Salmon. Career stats have been compiled since the first season and Barry Bonds has been the top player (based on rankings) over the 30 seasons.
