Re: An Argument For Relative Ratings
i have always maintained that there should be a toggle for each individual team that allows you to switch back and forth between the two on your own screen.

Re: What to do with Comp Picks?
So hey. Just looked at the draft. It appears we have ONE comp pick. If that's how the system goes now, and we're barring playoff teams from getting comp picks, this isn't even really a topic of conversation. No reason to even talk about it. it makes sense to limit them to non-playoff teams, but the...

Re: An Argument For Relative Ratings
Another major issue with relative ratings is they get all skewed at points like the off-season and September when rosters are in flux.

Re: 2054.1 Yellow Springs Nine Announce Legendary SP Carlos Valle's Retirement
Easy HoFer Yeah I would think so as well but we'll see! 300 Wins and 3,000 strikeouts would have made it 100% no questions asked but I hope even this stingy lot sees to voting him in first ballot. Only 1 person in the history of the BBA has 300 wins (and Steve Nebraska probably shouldn't count for ...

Re: Clarification on salary retention
In a trade thread, it was mentioned that retention has to be in 10% increments. I'm not seeing that in the Constitution. Did I overlook it? Not a big deal to me but I want to make sure I'm not looking in the wrong place whenever Ii want to review rule clarifications. i think the issue is that the g...

Re: 2054-0001: Talons GM Hints at Reasons for Last Season's Pity-Party in First Interview in Years [Must-Read Exclusive!
In the end I believe he left over some frustration. IIRC he missed a late season Saturday sim. Which reminds me -- there's a SATURDAY SIM TODAY! That was the final straw, but there was a lot brewing under the surface there. I still maintain this place was a better league with an active and engaged ...

Re: With acquisition of Brickell, it’s clear Cordova’s time is over in Omaha.(2054.3)
Those trades Randy made in the late 40s to make failed playoff pushes still haunt San Fernando. First off, at some point you have to stop bitching about moves I made. It is older than the pope at this point (plus I ended up flipping wullenweber anyway). Secondly, Brickell was a secondary player in ...

i would be ok with killing them, regardless i like the idea of making them only for non-playoff teams that we do now.

Re: 2053-6 Will Karyabwite Get the Votes?
One of the major issues with karywabwite is that across almost the last 2/3 of his career (11 seasons), he was only a league average hitter 3 times (was 10 of 18 overall in that regard). By the time he hit 27 he was basically cooked at the plate, which isnt great for his candidacy.

2053.6: A Look Ahead
Despite seeing a significant improvement from 2052 to 2053 spurred on by bringing in some big name (and high priced) acquisitions, the Kernels are in reasonable cap shape heading forward. The only two notable free agents are SP Jay Hodge and 3B Roberto Rivera, both of whom were in-season rentals. Th...

2053.5: A Disappointing End
Complete and utter joy in Des Moines at the idea of playing playoff baseball for the first time in 45 years quickly turned to despair and frustration as the team was swept out of the playoffs by the underdog Louisville Sluggers. The Kernels finished comfortably ahead of the Sluggers in the regular s...

2053,4: Playoffs
For the first time in multiple generations, the Des Moines Kernels will be playing playoff baseball. The historic futility of this franchise is well documented, with their last playoff appearance coming in 2008 (for reference the new longest drought is only since 2043). This is exactly the outcome t...
