This would be the first time since (I think) 2026 that two guys from the same staff won 20.

Don't look now, but Taylor's got his squad on an 8-game winning streak and above .500. Nice final push here down the stretch for what we all know will be a team to watch in the coming years.

I'd be happy if he paused the winning streak for a few days!

Re: 2040, Sim #25 Chatter
it looks like the playoff odds on stats+ are factoring in only 3 WC, because there is no reason that Valencia and San Fernando only add up to 37%.

Re: 2040, Sim #25 Chatter
Elwood Blues switched over to the Chin Kim Sports Agency. He had a dumpster fire of a season and a $9 million team option. I was in no way going to pick that up. But in this paper thin starting pitching market and him still looking like a legit backend starter, I kicked the tires. He ended up accepting a one year, $1.3 million extension with two team options at the same rate.
When you take out his $3 million buyout that I would have had to pay, it ends up essentially being a four year $10 million deal. I couldn't pass that up even though I'm not sure where he fits in our plans.

And, just FYI...finally, just before his 26th birthday, Ernesto Ramos has finally grown into his 10 stuff. Sometimes guys just take a little time.

Re: 2040, Sim #25 Chatter
Losing Vicente Lopez for 10 months is really devastating. Was hopeful next season was going to be big improvement and had .500 as a personal goal in 2041. This really kills any positive momentum.

Re: 2040, Sim #25 Chatter
If you're going to be busy over this holiday, might not hurt to set your FPL rosters/lineups and export now...the sim after this next one is the start of the FPL, I believe.
