Re: What is used for salary cap overage?

If I offer a deal to somebody for a player that they adore thinking its a fair deal, it doesn't mean that I am trying to screw somebody over and they should basically tell me to fuck off. It means maybe you value them higher than I do and my evaluation of them is wrong. This entire basis really goe...

Re: What is used for salary cap overage?

I think this thread can probably be locked if Recte so wishes as my question was answered relatively quickly. I do just want to say that it does go back to evaluating your prospects and how each person evaluates players. Maybe the player is low on my value pole but higher on somebody else's...or hig...

Two Hawks about to be #1 on team’s career leader board(38.59)

Two Hawks about to be #1 on team’s career leaderboard With a forgetful season in Omaha, two Hawks players at least have fans somewhat interested in coming to the games to cheer the team on. Those two Hawk player’s also are expected to cross the finish line and become the team’s all-time leaders in t...

Omaha relieves pitching coach of his duties.(38.58)

Omaha has announced that current pitching coach Dwight Curry has been relieved of his duties effective immediately. Curry had been the pitching coach since taking over the gig in 2034 after a 6 year hiatus where he was the last pitching coach for Madrid in the EBA. The move comes amidst a season to ...

Fired pitching coach

I fired my pitching coach at the BBA Level and made a replacement offer that's pending. Just wanted you to know since it will show I have an open spot in my personnel. I also made a few other offers to people to replace some minor league personnel but I did not fire those other coaches throughout th...

Re: Des Moines/Omaha

Kyle thanks for the advice i will take it to heart. Also it take two to make a trade I'm as much at fault. Ed, I still dont think this is a bad trade based on your current need for prospects and time window. If I truly thought I was fucking someone I wouldn't propose or listen to a proposal because...

Re: Des Moines/Omaha

From all the comments looks like another bonehead trade again. In the past GMs felt I kept Moreland and Arreola to long and should have traded then earlier. Now I’m looking for more prospects to feed the ML and feel FA bats are easy to find, but FA pitching is costly. Maybe it is my fault not reach...

Re: Des Moines/Omaha

I would truly argue that the league's quick reaction to this trade that caused Yellow Springs & Des Moines to eliminate Frazier & Wulms from this trade actually hurt Des Moines as I believe that Frazier would better benefit Des Moines than Wulms would. Thank goodness that the league shamed Ed into ...

Re: Des Moines/Omaha

Funny the Wulms reference comes up. I do remember this trade and the outrage it caused. Looking at the players involved though, would it truly end up being a crazy trade had it remained the same? Going to Yellow Springs was: Ernesto Chavez retired a few seasons later after being released immediately...

Re: Omaha “State Of Hawk Nation” Address(38.57)

1.) YS9 does not make me very happy and should not be mentioned in the State Of The Hawk Nation address. 2.) Gotta have faith that my guys who have developed will stay developed until they are 45. 3.) In all seriousness, the only thing I have going is that most of the contracts were only for 2 or 3 ...

Re: Public Apology To Justin and Ed

So, regarding the recent trade you guys made, I don't like it. I also am not always right. My perception is that there are a number of people in this league who try to get the very best deal they can, and don't give two shits about the fairness to the other team. In reality, most trades that any of...

Re: Des Moines/Omaha

This thread needs a Tobias Wulms reference. Because I can't keep my mouth shut and I don't know what your point was, I'll point out the following. Players not developing, lumping, bumping, doesn't really change the analysis of a trade. What matters is the value of the players at the time of the dea...

Re: Omaha announces third trade this week, one including an all-star.(38.56)

I think that Garcia could be a#2, which is what I meant by "front end". The front end is #1 & #2 in my eyes and #3 is middle, and #4 or #5 is back end...I would agree it's a riskier move for Des Moines, as it always is when acquiring prospects but if Garcia develops completely, he could be a solid p...

Re: Omaha announces third trade this week, one including an all-star.(38.56)

Then it's still a bad trade. If Clark averages .260 for his career with 15-20 homers, I'll buy you a yacht. He's playing unsustainably well right now. The overwhelming majority of his playing time is this year, and he's still not at those numbers. May I ask how Clark is not there right now? His lin...

What is used for salary cap overage?

Is it the player salaries on the HTML? Is it the payroll on stats plus? Is it something else? The reason I ask because it would seem there has to be a better way if it's the HTML. Because honestly, how often is it policed? Something could easily be missed if each individual team wasn't checked each ...
