Re: Which Title Would you Want?
St. Louis, Cleveland, and Milwaukee have all had extended runs of success. How many championships have Milwaukee and Cleveland won recently? St. Louis I give them credit up until recently they were the among the gold standards on how to run a mid market team. Playoffs are a crapshoot. Just ask Ron....

Re: Which Title Would you Want?
The Pirates' problem isn't cash, it's that they have zero idea how to develop players. I've been watching talented but troubled players succeed outside of Pittsburgh for almost 40 years now. It's not a new problem. The financial system doesn't help, but that's not why they're losers. Still haven’t ...

Re: Which Title Would you Want?
When a small market team NEVER wins the problem is in the front office. When they can't win for more than short periods the problem is with the system. That part kind of is what it is. Tampa seems to be the exception that proves the rule. St. Louis, Cleveland, and Milwaukee have all had extended ru...

Re: Which Title Would you Want?
I’m a Pirates fan, no chance they’ll win anytime soon with the MLB financial system and Nutting as the owner. I don't think its fair to give MLB's financial system much of the blame for the Pirates not winning. If the Marlins/White Sox/Cardinals/Royals can win a World Series so can Pittsburgh. The ...

I’m a Pirates fan, no chance they’ll win anytime soon with the MLB financial system and Nutting as the owner. Steelers and Pens won championships recently. I don’t follow the NBA or Premier League. Gotta go after the Landis. Don't you have enough of them already? I’m trying to be like this Steelers.

Re: How Are You Feeling Going Into Free Agency?
I’m leaning towards OOTP 25, but even with 24 I was intending on using FA for tweaks.

Re: 2058-59 Free Agency: Which of these Scenarios Would Surprise You the Most?
I think you’re going to see GMs be extra cautious this season when it comes to signing free agents due to the new ratings.

Re: How Closely Do You Follow MLB?
As an unfortunate Pirates fan I don’t follow MLB and I don’t even really follow them all that much anymore. The “financial discrepancy” between the have and have nots has made me almost lose interest in baseball and Bob Nutting has really done the same for my Pirates fandom. I used to watch other te...

Re: 2058 - Cano Jr to Des Moines
One thing to think about is how difficult it is to find a good CF much less an elite CF. Cano Jr is an elite CF. I think it’s easier to find and replace an elite 3B with another solid player than it is to replace an elite CF with a solid player.

What were the ratings scale in 2024? I remember seeing guys at like 16 for some ratings like stuff.

Charm City 2059.2 - Jimmies Finalize Big League Coaching Staff
"If You Can't Beat Them Join Them": Freddie Mercury once belted out the lyrics "If You Can't Beat Them Join Them" off the 1978 Queen album Jazz. That apparently stands quite true in baseball as well. The Charm City Jimmies at their November 12th press conference announced the singing of Yao-qing Yu...
