I think it's interesting to page through the second chart, looking at various teams--and in particular the "super teams." for the lack of better words. Note when they are over "salary cap."

Definitely some interesting charts. I'm assuming the YS9 dip was Avery's tank. I think the more interesting charts are things like Kevin's in Calgary, or Mike's in Hawaii. Hawaii (or Des Moines) shows traits of what happens when budget/revenues go down. These also show quite clearly that player expe...

Good stuff. Love the plea to stop getting the HBP's hah.

Dude crowds the plate.

Nice round up. I think June is huge for Valencia. I'd say they need to come out of the month with a 4-5 game lead, or fans might need to be a little angsty.

I did induct a player (Braggo Franco) into my team Hall of Fame this year, which didn't seem to be noted on the spreadsheet.

I had it on there, but I had it on CCJ's line. Sorry about that.

My only real issue with this is that it would have a Loserville Slugger brand.

H E I J A B C D F G Ultimately, the more I think about it the more I think that if we do something like this, it should be a true traveling trophy and something less formal and more fun. I kind of like the idea of one of those small mini-bats you can get at the Louisville Slugger museum. They cost l...

FYI ... I did a quick pass at an interim update of out PPT tracker today, in case you want to check my work.

I should note here that, given Vic and Vinnie's work in the Chicago TN thread, we may be in the process of seeing history in action...

Having played in a couple different leagues with limited minor league levels, I admit it's often hard to both manage to age as well as keep back ups around. It will be interesting to see how this environment alters over the next couple seasons as GMs get their own take on who they should play and no...

Here's a better update after 55ish games in both UMEBA and BBA...it's quite interesting if you stare at it a little--especially the difference in the UMEBA game and the BBA game...which shows how outputs here a result of players as much as settings?

I do like E and J, and the bobblehead (H). I'd rank them

E = H
J

We could also consider a custom bobblehead--maybe a Recte Bobblehead, complete with BBA logo. Those are a little pricey, though.
