Re: 2045, FA Sim #1 Chatter
I’m hoping that the drop in competition from BBA to UMEBA will spark Lorenzen to hit .250 or so; if he does that, he’s a useful player. There weren’t many exciting options at CF that I could see...

Well, you outbid me for Lorenzen. He was all set to be my fifth outfielder.

Re: 2045, FA Sim #1 Chatter
It's not entirely this. I needed the other players more. I don't really care about the length of the deal or the damage later. I only bid on Puckett because the asking prices were so low that I had money left to throw a goofy deal at Puckett. I thought as I did it that I was probably getting greedy and should save that money to be able to up my other bids if need be. I figured at least one of my two big targets would sign and I could back off puckett and re-up the others if needed. Puckett signed. Whoops.aaronweiner wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 7:46 amHe didn't want to be burdened with a long-term deal like Puckett's, I'm sure. Though Puckett is a potential foundational player if he hits league average.

Meh, not a bad strategy assuming Jay gets promoted to the Bigs in the next two seasons.CTBrewCrew wrote: ↑Mon Nov 16, 2020 8:38 pm@Ted - not as “all in” as this in the UMEBA!
