Downloading now but I think I messed up that Muirhead contract. I don't think I took into account year 1 being this year. :bag:
I can confirm I did.

That torn ACL saved me about 40 million bucks.
That is a pretty healthy ACL discount. Assuming he heals.

Wow I offered 100k more and no options and he didn’t bite. The joys of being terrible and having to overpay to get someone

Yeah. You'd think he'd take it because who knows how he comes back but I know how OOTP works. I will be surprised if he does. I hope he does but will be very surprised.

I've been there. Not that we are any good, we went through it for a bit. You'll have someone send you something (your quote) like this once you are on the upswing.

I can’t believe I’m still in the hunt. How? Don’t get me wrong. Trying to maneuver things so I can win. The only thing I won’t do is call up anyone I care about in the minors. I don’t think starting their clock early is worth it in this case. Maybe if they were called up earlier in the year and I could use them in the playoffs, but no dice. Shocked that we’re still in it though. Not even playing that well this month.

Another 4-3 sim for the Goats. Not quite what we needed but hey, there is still a chance this late in the season so I'll take it. The WC odds keep going down in each of the last 3 sims but we still have the easiest remaining schedule in the JL. The key will come in the next sim,,,,gotta come out large against Jax this next sim!

Happy to lock up Ramirez to a nice contract and buy out one year of free agency.
