Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

And some people did their changes multiple sims ago, this is gonna be messy... Sort of along these lines ... I did my changes after this last sim, but I exported last night. If, however, I sent a new export from my laptop where those 40-man roster changes, etc., haven't been made yet, would that ov...

Re: Too Many With Rule 5 Eligibility?

I think killing it this year is probably the best solution.

Chicago Spends 50 (we just can't stop)

We’ve dug a few more PPs out of our couch cushions, so we’d like to spend 50 points to buy a copy of “The Science of Hitting” by Ted Williams in hopes it will improve the “teach hitting” skill of Black Sox hitting coach Valentino Mercati. Lord knows we need to try something!

Re: A Flock Of Bluebirds 2041.3- We Got Wood! (Sorry Portland)

I was interested in Wood, too, although as a left fielder. I pulled my punches on the offer, though, because his injury history and "eye" rating concerned me a little. In retrospect, wish I'd been more aggressive. I like the signing for Nashville - not so much for Chicago and the rest of the division.

Re: 2041, Winter Meetings/FA Sim #3

If there is one thing that took me forever (and I mean forever) to learn was budget and finances of OOTP. I screwed Madison’s up repeatedly but I think I’m getting better. already bumped Portland’s up $4 million from last year and the “way too early projection for 2042” has Portland up another $10 ...

Re: 41.04 Wasim's Weekly; The Lab

How does one license Way of the Crusader's Mind? The Sox could make use of that. On second thought, forget that. Could we just have the number of the deeply bronzed green-eyed woman?
