Re: 2057 - Most Surprising Start?

The Atlantic has been an interesting division to follow this year, as there has been a big clump at the top of the standings.

Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Have a Close Game Problem (2057.9)

The late Bobby Bowden had a quote about building a successful championship college football program that still applies to this day. You lose big, lose close, win close, and win big. It makes sense when you look at it. The Robins have mastered the lose big stage over the years, and are currently in t...

Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Home Opener A Success (2057.8)

After an offseason filled with new signings, a spring training that was competitive, and hope that 2058 would be a step in the right direction after years of false starts, the Robins welcomed Charm City to Ebbets Field for Opening Day. The weather was decent for early April in Brooklyn, and after 20...

Re: 2057 – Brooklyn Robins

A very fair look that I agree with. I’d be incredibly thrilled if we are in the playoff hunt into the summer, but something tells me that the preseason predictions are flattering me a bit.

Re: Calgary's Wild Offseason And It's Impacts

Appreciate the write up. I could afford to give up the OF prospects as I have a young OF. Also I still have some good pitching prospects left. Brett approached me with the talk of a deal and we put it together pretty quick. Most fun I have had in awhile. Now if I could only get a 2B to sign with my...

Re: Calgary's Wild Offseason And It's Impacts

I still can't believe Santos was traded. Malik bin Mazin is one thing, but that strong of a defender in center field is about to become an even more rare commodity. No doubt Rocky Mountain got a haul in return. I'm sure both Brett and Kevin have their reasons. That trade is going to be one of the m...

2057 - Calgary's Wild Offseason And It's Impacts

The Pioneers entered the 2057 offseason as a team that had just missed getting into the playoffs, and most observers thought that they would make some moves to get closer to the playoffs. But what wasn't expected was that Calgary ended up announcing in no uncertain times that this was the year that ...

Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Fans Are Excited (2057.7)

The Brooklyn Robins enter spring training as a team that has surprisingly improved by going into the free agency market and getting some good pieces. With an offseason that was graded as very good in terms of WAR added and team improvement, Brooklyn looks like it will get closer to getting back to t...

Brooklyn State of Mind: Robins Continue to Plug In Holes (2057.6)

It turns out the Robins weren't done with their free agent shopping this year, as they ended up adding more pitchers and a new outfielder to the mix. It's still unknown what exactly "The Decision" is, but the Robins have clearly been active in attempting to plug into free agency. By looking at the m...

The Robins ended up making a successful run earlier in the season to improve their pitching staff by getting Ollie Lowry in free agency after the consensus was that he would stay in Nashville or play for a BBA contender. With Calgary continuing to really be aggressive in free agency by adding an ast...

Nice move!
The bottom line is that I needed to improve the pitching situation, and help get more money into the team. This move helps with both, and we needed to do something like this. I can't believe he signed right away, but I'll take it.
