The Brooklyn Robins Debut Season
I n a very positive move across the league (well, except for potentially the city of Baltimore) the MBWBA welcomes its newest franchise in the form of the Robins of Brooklyn. Nigel uprooted the very successful Monarchs franchise from the location it had called home in Baltimore since the league's i...

Re: 2017 Johnson League Preview
Outstanding work Aaron.... I'll be pleased if you are correct with Madison... I think we will contend for a playoff spot mainly because the JL is still pretty average I feel. Outside of California, I think there are quite a few teams that will be in that 80s win range. A team would have to be real b...

Re: 2017, Spring Training Sim #2 Chatter
Well my regulars go 9-2 but suffer some injuries. Ah, it is what it is. Let's see how this year, one in which I predict Madison to finish the worst it has since I took over.

Re: 2017 Preview: Gamblers Crap Out
Trade your prospects... Get your Jim Brochtrup... Win your titles when you can!!!!! Your team would have been the ultimate example of this if you had not gotten that title in 2004. 7 straight empty trips... I needed a leadoff man and got Roland Carroll. Felt I needed another ace to help me through ...

Re: 2017 Preview: Gamblers Crap Out
I won't deal for Mazzola, it's not worth it to get a 30 year old back for a year. I won't deal prospects for him. I'd rather wait til he hits FA and see if I can bring him back then. I like Martin, just not sure if I would be willing to make a competitive deal for him. This kind of attitude has alr...

Re: Valencia Stars Report: Off Season #1
Love these high OBP adds... One thing I've learned though over the past few years, a team better have some guys to get some hits behind them or you still won't score runs.

Re: The Dynasty 2017.9 Caracas wins Inaugural Fall league!!!
I was actually hoping my young guys were good enough to win it. Was actually tracking the standings hoping... With that said, we posted a losing record.

Preseason Predictions
OK, I have stopped taking stock in the Preseason Predictions especially when they're formulated before people have their rosters ready but it is always fun to look at. Looks like Aaron may not only get back to back winning seasons, but expectations in Carolina may now be at an all-time high. Yellow ...

That's What Cheesehead: 17.08 - "I Couldn't Feel My Arm"
I t is always sad when a player retires and hangs up his cleats and glove for the final time. It is generally even more upsetting when a player is forced to hang them up a lot earlier than they would like to. That is the case with Wolves 28 year old hurler Manny Caro . Caro, whose 2016 season came ...

Re: 2017-1: Barnstormers extend Hoffman
I remember when Omaha acquired him from California.. I think I felt it was the start of a long run by Omaha in the division. Instead, California has become a dominant force in the Pacific while Omaha hasn't won the division since they acquired Hoffman.

Re: 2017, Preseason Sim Chatter
Well shit on Manny Caro. He was probably looking at a 2017 out of the pen but hate that he retired at 28 after a season ending injury last year
