Re: Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins GM Has Strange Experience (2059.2)

Be glad that you got out of those contracts. Wullenweber is done. He'll be out of the league by the end of next season. And while McNeil is a great player, he is not going to be a 40 win player. By the time Brooklyn closes the gap, he'll be old and falling apart too. He's old as hell, that's why th...

Re: 2059 Phoenix Talons Sign CF Juan Cabrera to a Masterpiece Contract

I love the structure. I'm just not sure if this guy can hit enough to justify $16 million. Hard to judge his stats being he hasn't played much over GBC A-Ball. So maybe I'm wrong.

Shouldn't Manuel Torres be eligible for comp?
He played for Phoenix, who made the playoffs. Playoff teams are ineligible to receive comp picks.

Re: 2059.04: Bears' Development Lab Follow-Up

12/16/2058 I really wanted to train 1B Michael Schultz on his defense at first but the game is only giving me the option to target his defense in the outfield. I could roll the dice introducing him to a new position but won’t that be something other than first base since he played there all season ...

Re: 2059 BBA Compensation List

I don't mind double checking if I have the time. The rules are very complicated, and I would not be surprised if I got some wrong also. I can just barely keep up with the leagues pace as it is though.

Re: 2059 BBA Compensation List

Re: 2058 - Cano Jr to Des Moines

I thought this was a win-win trade. bin Mazin is a better pure hitter(who also plays in a big time hitters park, in a hitters league) while Cano is a much better all around player at a scarce position. Santos coming up made Cano expendable to RMO. I'd be much more critical of the bin Mazin/Sloth Fra...

Re: 2059 – Options (Opt-outs and True Options – Player Stays)

I love using opt outs and team options, but I agree with Rob here. I don't see a point in player options. Players always ask for them but if you get rid of it they barely even balk. I mean if it's a deal breaker and I really like the player, I'll do it. I just feel that is the exception rather than ...

Re: Graphic Representation of the Batting Ratings Migration

I'm afraid to say this because everytime someone talks about changing the rules, a huge debate breaks out and gives the governing board a headache. But...... Being the internal rating has gone from 250 to 550, would it make sense to use a 1-20 scale instead of 1-10? I honestly don't even know how I ...

Re: Graphic Representation of the Pitching Ratings Migration

Are the Gonzalez ratings as a reliever? That's how he was used last year. That's as a RP. As a starter he is 6/7/7. Probably a #3 or #4 starter. Unless he somehow improves his secondary pitch this winter. Then maybe he can be a 2/ solid 3 at worst. It is kinda crazy that there is such a huge bubble...

Rumor has it that HGH retired as soon as he heard about the ratings switch. Refused to play if his power was rated below 13.

Re: Player Potential in OOTP 25

I like the change. It's just causing a big WTF moment. The line between a BBA bench player(even a second division starter)and a AAA player seems a lot more foggy than it was.

I think that is good in the long run. Much better than seeing players with 27 stuff on a scale of 1-10.
