I’ve lived through three Reds World Series wins, so I’d have to take the Bengals, who have been soooo close a couple of times. I’d love to win the BBA, but based on my experience with other leagues, winning is somewhat tempered by the fact that there’s no one else in the “real world” to share it wit...

The Gamblers spend 60 points to raise the “teach pitching” rating of AA pitching coach Ulf Bermann from 83 to 143.

Wow… did not realize that; should have checked first. I guess we can disregard this request; thanks for looking out for me.

Since I think our "Of Minor Importance" guy has stepped away for a bit, I could do some kind of minor league review...

I'm using it to pay my stadium loan payment. I think that comes out of bonus funds, but whatever accomplishes that is what I want...

The Gamblers would like an inquiry into the current "teach pitching" rating of AA pitching coach Ulf Burmann.

Stephen F. Austin State University wasn’t really that big a place, so the arrival of ten new faces created a bit of a stir among the student body. A few of them made inquiries and discovered that the university had leased some of its facilities to the Atlantic City Gamblers, as a site for their wint...

Well…..Johnson looks like a keeper; he’ll start 2059 in the rotation. Mitchell is an “if all else fails” option at second next year. Patterson will be given fifty dollars and a suit of clothes and escorted to the city limits.

As the Gamblers wrap up another forgettable season (at least I hope it’s forgettable) , let’s hand out some awards to put a shiny bow on the steaming pile of poop that was 2058: MOST VALUABLE PLAYER: It’s weird giving the MVP to a guy who hit .255 with no power, but the Gamblers pitching staff as a ...

It was Rafael, my assistant GM, who first brought the issue of the recently acquired Julio Barajas to my attention. “Um… If we’re really going to assign this guy to Bogota, somebody should probably travel with him” he said. “How come?” “Well… we both know that most baseball players aren’t particular...

Atlantic City Receives

3B Júlio Barajas (R)


Long Beach Receives

SP Eddie Armstrong

Atlantic City confirms.

Finally voted… Sorry, it’s been a busy few days for me. Anyway, I voted for the immediate changeover, which seems like it would provide the most level playing field. If we wait another season, those GMs who have the time and inclination will delve into v25 more deeply, and leave the other half of th...

Atlantic City receives:

3b Mesrak Youssef (ML)

Charm City receives:

P Evgeny Partyka (SA)
P Travis Miley (R)

Charm City to confirm. Youssef can stay DFA for this next sim.

The second half of a season is the dead zone for teams out of the playoff hunt. This is the time of year when such teams hold open auditions for players they’re on the fence about, trying to get a read on whether these guys can theoretically be part of the next relevant edition of the team. Let’s lo...

I like to say that my door is always open to any of my players. I like to say that; in reality, my door is always open because due to some ventilation issues, if I close my door I find myself sweating like a whore in church within five minutes. But at any rate, my door was indeed open when pitcher A...

Welcome Adam! I’ve been “caretaking” the Brisas and am happy to turn things over to you. I’ve been trying to build up the pitching staff a bit, while still leaving enough money for you to have some fun with if you choose to. My advice is to spend it on something; if you don’t it will just vanish int...
