Re: 2014, Preseason Chatter

BTW, I noticed that Matt tried to deal Julio Chacon to Atlantic City, who had signed him before Las Vegas matches. Normally we have to wait until June to trade free agents, but I love what they were trying to do; it's like NBA restricted free agency when a team with the rights to a player can either...

If he did, I'd have been very, very impressed.

Wise Kraken Offseason: The Return of Rafael Avila

Rafael Avila has been one of the more productive on-base men in the history of the MBWBA. That's why the Carolina Kraken signed him to an eight-year deal in 2006, and it's why, today, the Kraken brought him back. Carolina signed Rafael Avila to a one-year deal with a team option today, making him a...

Monday, February 10th, 2014 Las Vegas Hustlers: SP Cees Breeuwer was injured when he collided with a parked car while drunk. The Diagnosis: torn thumb ligament. He's expected to miss about 2 months. Someone did that to me once. Totaled my car and I wasn't even in it - I came back to find the car mi...

Re: Switch to four 7-day sims?

The missed exports are a concern for me, but we had such an outstanding year last year in that regard that it's less of a concern than it would be otherwise.

Re: Switch to four 7-day sims?

I'd love to be able to properly utilize the 7 day line-up and all of the micromanaging that comes with it. The only question is time constraints for the simmer (you). But if you'd be willing to do the sims, I'd love to have more of them. I voted No. Not that I don't like the idea, but I fear the am...

Re: 2014 team, division, league previews sign up

Why is there a bonus for Montreal? they were previewed last season..... Whoops. My bad. But I am not going to retract the extra PP because of my mistake. It's 1 PP. If an error was made, I would not mind removing the one bonus point. I took Montreal because I wanted the team not the extra point. Th...

Re: 2013 Hall of Fame Ballot

You posting reminds me of something: if Charles Puckett and Bopper Kengos both retire in the same year there's almost no chance that they don't finish 1-2 on most people's ballots. That would be cool.

Re: 2014, FA Sim #4 Chatter

LOL!

This time it's Ratzlaff. Doesn't he HAVE to have this on computer management (unless he's releasing his own prospects) - or is there a bug?

Though apparently Hoffman can't act out scenes from Entourage. (If you noticed.)

Re: 2013 Hall of Fame Ballot

I like saves and ERA. Saves say, "the game was won while I was on the mound." ERA within a range is a product of your own pitching quality. Stolen bases are way overrated, but they're awfully fun to watch.

No, the JL Pacific. It was a tight race last year and it intrigues me.

Re: 2013 Hall of Fame Ballot

And Hall of Fames are about cumulative stats. It's why we MIGHT consider Ramon Ayala, since 221 wins is a whole lot in the MBWBA.
