Re: 2053, Sim #27/End of Reg Season Chatter
Not one word about the ending of 3000 years of Des Moines longing? I will. Congratulations, Randy. This is not the team I would have put into Des Moines, and 94 wins is quite the accomplishment. It's all you. Looking forward to your next trick. You gave me some ingredients to work with (including s...

2053.3 Silk/Puckett Candidates
In ending the most infamous drought in BBA history (yes, moreso than the Yellow Springs title drought), there are numerous offensive players who deserve consideration for league-wide awards this season, including some who should be outright favorites. Rankings (First number is Positional, second num...

Re: 2053, BBA Awards Voting Chatter
Going to ask y'all to strongly consider Dong-Po Thum for the Second Base glove award in the Frontier. At the age of 35, he's still bringing the leather, with a zone rating of 10.6, and range of 4.5. He is still one of the best in the game on the field, and is worthy of your time to review his candi...

Re: (2053.04) Rookie Profile: Harold Nothard
i regret nothing lol, moreno was a solid pitcher for me for a number of years on a pretty cheap contract. It must have been backloaded, right? He turned to poop for a couple years there as I took over and I remember him being fairly expensive. His career arc reminds me of Aníbal Sánchez—it turned t...

Re: 2053.3: Sad News Bears – San Fernando Says Goodbye to Rivera
I do have to admit having a soft spot for rivera, he was a rare IFA splurge for me and it actually worked out (even though the end wasn't pretty, 21 WAR is pretty good investment for just shy of 6m in bonus money).

2053.2 Bringing up the Kids
In a rarely seen move, two members from the previous year's draft have been called up to the big league starting lineup/rotation for a team that is pushing for a divisional title. Starting pitcher Marshall Taylor was the 12th pick of the 2052 draft, and at the time Weigand was ecstatic to get him, s...

2053,1: The Dynamic Duo
When the 2052 season came to a close for the Des Moines Kernels in extra innings of game 163, GM Randy Weigand vowed that he would do everything in his power to ensure his organization was not in that position again. In the off-season he made two of the biggest moves in recent BBA history, acquiring...

Re: 2053, BBA All-Star Voting Chatter
So, just curious… how do you guys select relief pitchers for all-star teams? Personally, I start by sorting the contenders by saves. If a pitcher has a lot of saves with not any losses and a good WHIP, in they go. Then I sort by holds and do the same. Finally, I sort by innings pitched and try to f...

Re: Is The X Generation Strategy Smart or Stupid?
Terrible idea. Not only are possibly hurting player development, but you’re also going to be using their service time up early which will hurt financially down the line if the players are able to reach their full potential. Counterpoint to the financial issue is that if they struggle early on, you ...
