GM: "Good evening folks. I don't have a lot of time here so lets skip the pleasantries. Are there any questions about the team heading into the playoffs?"
Goldie: "Skip the pleasantries?! What are you talking about? You have skipped every single press opportunity since the night of the Landis championship last year! Where have you been? What happened? What's going on? We need answers."
GM: "SERIOUSLY?! You are hung up on that? You had a million questions you could have asked. How about Mtume closing in on 30 wins? The team clinching a playoff spot? Mike England putting up a great season after being disparaged by some potato from Boise? Dalrymple's absolute albatross literally the day after he signed? Shawn Huber arguably being a better reliever than Jason Egan? L'Archibudelli being an absolute hit machine and he just might get double digit dingers? Otto Altaner's emergence making last years Mercado/Greek Freak trade looking like a total steal for us? Manoell Whanon looking like a young star in the making? Mimum Zikomo coming from nowhere and having a fine rookie season in the outfield? Augate Balun's 8 blown saves? So many relevant questions you could have asked and instead you focus on something completely minor like me missing a few press conferences. I expected better from you Goldie... "
Soik: "A few press conferences?! He's absolutely right. You have literally been a ghost for almost an entire year. What happened? Who was running the team?"
GM: "I can't believe you guys. Look we just clinched a playoff spot didn't we? Things are going well. We have significant cap space going into next year even to perhaps add to this young core I've put together. Relax. I hope you are happy. No more questions! "

Re: Sin City Times 2041.1
I’m glad you’re feeling good about our trade yet. I’m actually over the moon about it also. I guess it was a net positive for both of us.

Life is a bit more beautiful when time is measured by the half inning rather than the half hour.

Re: Sin City Times 2041.1
That trade combined with the Charm City trade gives me Whanon and Hale. And Otto actually has made up a lot of the lost offense from Kouros.

Re: Sin City Times 2041.1
Yeah, I think Hale was probably too much to give away, but I needed a bonafide leading guy. I subsequently traded Kun for two developing minor league relievers. If they work out, it’s a net positive for positions of need in my organization.

I hoped Altaner would be the next Gervasio Ridder. His 2041 season looks damn close to a prime Ridder year.
