Re: Brooklyn State of Mind: Morales Jr. Signs Extention (2057.14)

I’m sure he’ll be open to something similar this offseason. Hopefully I didn’t just make an enemy. Don’t worry, I’m not mad at you or the GB. I’m fine taking the void and the fine, as that’s in the rules and this league does a great job enforcing them equally and fairly. What I’m not happy about th...

Re: 2057 - A Bird's Eye View of the Trade Market

I decided that the targets that I wanted in the offseason were going to be better served on the free agency market/ Thankfully, that gamble has by and large been a success.

Brooklyn State of Mind: Morales Jr. Signs Extention (2057.14)

Emilio Morales Jr. has vindicated the potential that those in Brooklyn hoped, and this week finally got his contract secured. After buying out his last year of arbitration, Emilio will be making 11.6 million a year starting in 2059 and is signed through 2061 with a player option for 2062 should he c...

Re: R.I.P.- Neil Thomas

Neil was a very good guy, and that sucks. I like to think that Neil, Vic, and Ted are somewhere in the great beyond talking about the BBA and are watching the sims, Discord, and forums.

Brooklyn State of Mind: Miranda's Batting Title Chase (2057.13)

The Robins have started to fall away over the summer thanks to their their overperformance coming back to earth and some untimely injuries, but there is still at least one storyline that the Robins can offer up. If you look at the JL batting title race, Lawrence Miranda is currently in a tight compe...

Re: Top 10 Worst #1 Overall Picks in BBA History (#10-#6)

Love the idea. Just goes to show that drafting is as much an art as a science and that everyone makes mistakes.

Re: 3 of the Most Lopsided trades in BBA history #1 (according to WAR)

Very interesting idea for a series, and interesting to look back at some trades that were before I joined up. Interesting that all three of those trades weren't able to result in a title.

Brooklyn State of Mind: García Making Huge Strides in Second Year (2057.12)

It's been no secret that the Robins have had a rough go of it for a while now, and after years of losing you wouldn't be blamed for thinking that there was no direction in Flatbush. But as we have seen in the first two months of the 2057 season, there have been reasons for optimism. The Robins sit o...

Re: Random Observations from the Commish: JL Atlantic Division, 6/3/2057

Love to see your observations on what has been a very interesting division this year.

I'm very happy with how the Robins have looked so far, but making the playoffs this year was always going to be a bridge too far given that this team still has flaws.

Brooklyn State of Mind: Lowry Embracing Role as Face of Robins Pitching (2057.11)

In one of the most shocking free agency decisions of the offseason, Ollie Lowry made the decision to leave a contending team in Nashville for the Brooklyn Robins. For someone who was entering the prime of his career, to join a last place Robins team that had been quite frankly bad under their curren...

He was part of the "elite position players" tier for sure so I see no issue with the pick.

Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Draft Cookie Monster With #2 Pick (2057.10)

The 2057 BBA draft has been going on, and the Robins held the 2nd overall pick. There were a number of options that the Robins could have gone with, with some speculating that the Robins would try and get a position of need while others were thinking that they could even look at getting some pitchin...
