Founded in 1998, Gaedel is going into its 26th season.
Michael & Jon's RMT Taxsavers led the league with 98 regular season win in 2021, but dropped the playoff final to Jay-Dell Mah's Ebbets Fielders in a seven-game championship final. Fielders rebounded from a 3-1 game deficit in the semi-finals to take three in a row to win a spot in the final.
The Taxsavers were in the final again in 2022 but lost out to pennant winning Victor Kerr's Victorious Nine.
Gaedel expanded to 12 teams for the 2001 season and owners competed in three divisions (Pete Gray, Moonlight Graham, Bert Shepard) with names in the Gaedel theme.
The loop contracted to 10 teams for the 2009 campaign. It's a perpetual league with teams allowed to protect 15 players (plus 4 rookies) from year to year.
