Welcome back neugey. Sorry I moved your team!

Just over two months ago the Austin Shredders were wrapping up a 15-11 Spring Training. The roster had been set and many of the needs the Shredder's faced after last season had been addressed. A need for more range at 2B had been addressed with the free agent signing of 2B Bill Irvine, which not onl...

Great article. Even if I now think the Austin GM is an idiot.

Was not happy with this years draft pool.

This article has completely changed my draft strategy going forward.

My thanks to Ron for helping me finish at the wire and writing up Rosenblatt and San Antonio.

I will nominate a couple I created.

The Odessa Hobos



and the Winnipeg Black Drums

Do we post our nominations here or do we message them to you?

I apologize. my work and personal schedule have been off the charts. Not sure I will be able to get it done in time.

Austin sends:
MR Luis Brown (A)

Mexico City Sends:

CF Mike Crowson (AA)

Place Crowson in AA and as a non roster invitee in Spring Trainiing.

11-11 in walk offs and actually 3 over in one run games. As I was six under last year, I will take the over .500 trend.

I will get all the Frontier Divisions wrong again. Sign me up! Fourth year is the charm!

Nope. Galena is a shithole. Rejected.

j/k, I've been there, beautiful country.

Welcome aboard!

Yes. Go ahead and do it.

Austin Spends 100 PPT on 10 mil in cash.

Spend 20 PPT on converting RP Nasuh Kurtbek(AAA) to full time reliever Current Stamina - 8 Pitches Fastball - 10 (keep) Slider - 9 (keep) Sinker - 5 Cutter - 6 Stamina should go down to 2 (8 divided by 3 rounded down) Pitches should be: Cutter - 6 x 25 = 150 - 12 = 138 Sinker - 5 x 25 = 125 - 12 = 1...

Hmm. That Justin name sounds familiar…

Time for Fox to hit the road. Hoskins as well. I may keep the old professor around as he actually didn’t suck last year and I was holding out faint hope he might retire (or stroke out). As I don’t have a ready replacement he will likely be back.

I still need defense up the middle (maybe move Cabral to 1st?). I will also likely try and increase Komatsu’s speed in an attempt to increase his range in CF. Komatsu, despite OF range of 8, has a -23.4 ZR and Cabral has a -16 or so ZR up the middle.

Obviously still need pitching.

Yep. i suppose i should go into just a bit more detail. In the June draft of 2059, GM Chuck Valenches, in his debut draft, chose of Luis Rúbio with the 3rd pick overall. a round later the Shredders drafted a reliever with three solid pitches out of the Africa Monarchs college team, number 37 overall...

with just three games left in the 2062 season, the Austin shredders took a look at their vision board. then they threw it in the garbage. Make the playoffs? Nope. Get to .500? Nope. Yet another year of futility. however, there is hope on the horizon. After spending the first three years of his gm ca...
