Every offseason I can predict two things to happen.

1. Someone complains about the offseason being too slow.
2. Someone complains about the offseason being too fast.

Inevitably, neither of these complaints are raised when the Offseason Sim Schedule is released, instead they are raised hours before a sim.

So, I'll just shrug it off, and move on. :)

Well, that would depend on how funny you are, so yeah, you'd probably better not. :)

I'm sorry but I can't suspect that heels are comfortable,s o many women who wear heels would probably qualify as not wearing comfortable shoes.

if you want the backstory on the line though seriously, I can provide it :)

Rule 5 Draft Sim is Sunday 8pm Central- instructions!

I don't think anyone should be crunched for time...and I focus quite heavily on the RV draft. Everyone should know before the offseason even begins where a "Rule V-type" player is going to be needed: where you need emergency depth, where you could possibly find an upgrade, a player who needs a platoon partner. Point being that, unlike the Ammy draft, RV is not a "find the best players and sort through the details to put them in order" kind of decision. It's a niche pick...you have a SS who is prone to injuries and you want a backup with similar 'D' who'd not going to be all-around spectacular but can either pump out singles or just get on base. Or your bullpen is alarmingly short on LHP and you need that situational kind of reliever. In any case, sort the pool and your guy is either there or he's not. But if you go in looking for a star or hidden gem you're wasting time and doing it wrong.

recte44 wrote:Rule 5 Draft held pre-sim tomorrow night. PM me your draft lists/instructions. You must have open 40 man roster slots in order to draft. Not every player who shows as available will be available, as teams can still add guys to their 40 man roster in their pre-sim export.

Any questions? Let's have 'em.
If I end up having a list (starting to look now), will have to email it to you. For some reason, my tablet won't send PMs...
