San Antonio Fire Sale

These two assholes don't want to be on a "shitty mess of a team" (their words, not mine), so they won't extend their contracts here in San Antonio. Give me a decent prospect and take them off my hands - they'll be happy, you'll be happy and so will I. It's a win/win/win proposition. LF Lucio de la C...

Re: 2052, Sim #21 Chatter

A 6-1 run takes us out of last place! But we lose two SPs and face 1st place Mexico City and Montreal next sim. Fun while it lasted.

Pretty much every crossword puzzle aficionado I know has weak ankle ligaments, so I'm not surprised to hear this.

Well, we finished our series with the Hustlers, taking 2 out of 3. That means something, doesn't it?

Great write-up. There's a roadmap here, and it is now required reading for all San Antonio managers and coaches.

Life on the Lam 2052-1

OK, first of all, its life on the lam , not life on the lamb . I'm not that kind of an outlaw. I'm more of what you might call a white collar criminal. Financial crimes mostly. Should be in jail right now. Busted for embezzling Participation Points a few years back. Jumped bail, and been on the run ...

OK, Maybe Its Not a League Feature, But Still Worth It

Hey everyone, hope you're all doing well. Just wanted to let you know about a very cool exhibit that the Library of Congress is running this summer, called "Baseball in America". As part of the exhibit, they've digitized a ton of Branch Rickey's papers, including his scouting reports on Hank Aaron, ...

Hi Imran!

Imran is in the UEBA with me. Very solid and active GM. I think he'd be a great addition to the Brewster.

Adios!

So long everyone. I really enjoyed my one season in Havana. Sorry I couldn't work things out with the Commissioner. Good luck to the league, the expansion teams and the Sugar Kings.

Re: 2029 Brewster Expansion Process- The Details

After finally getting around to reading all of the posts today on expansion, I was starting to reconsider my position, until I came to this post: Im not debating it anymore. These are the rules. If you dont like it go pound sand. I’ve been in more than a few sim leagues in different sports - OOTP, F...

Re: 2029 Brewster Expansion Process- The Details

This is a compromise? Just took a look at how many of the MBBA's Top 100 Prospects have more than 2 years service. Umm, zero. In fact, almost all have 40 days or less, and the vast majority have no service time. I'm not going to take the time to go team by team, but it's probably safe to say that mo...

Don't Lock Me Out, Bro

Don't ask me to respond to a post, then lock me out. Any draft that significantly reduces the amount of MBBA players available or doesn't give the expansion teams the first four picks in the amateur draft would be a joke, imo. Really, if the idea is to significantly hamstring the expansion teams, th...

Re: Expansion Votes 1 of 4 - EBA ML Players

. And I'm gonna stay on letting us protect our own EBA players as well. I know at least one EBA gm didn't seem too in favor, but I think it should be an option. Maybe whatever you guys decide to protect number wise, we can protect half (ex: MBBA protects 10 so EBA can protect 5). Though I can live ...

Re: How to Distribute the EBA

Figured if we keep it at 5, it isn't enough players to make a huge difference talent wise while giving everyone some familiarity with their old teams. Also, since the MBBA teams can protect players, to me, it makes sense to let the EBA teams protect some players if they want. And I agree. Doubt I'l...
