Please make sure you're checking your DFAs.

Only 8 physical days left in the off-season. Now is the time for graphics changes and things of that sort. The Hall of Fame discussions will start next week at some point. Be around to vote.

Good job on the trades today. Good clear instructions (the level I can find minor leaguers) is really helpful to me.

SP/ Setup & 2B landed in this past sim.

Ok, done with free agency part of things.

Oh Pat.

Good to see Glen Harrington get paid. Though I guess that's the "Pawtucket premium" at work.

[Carlos]

I think that Pat deal for Yadir is glorious. Love it. Pay him now when he should be good and then he's gone.

If you have the money, spend it. No long term effects for Washington.

We landed Loren Wallace to platoon against righties at DH. Also will have Scott platoon against righties and play 1B for us while Seth Funk plays lefties.

Still have some targets I think. Need to check my money and the demands.

Same as Pat here with Jarava. Short term money. Good signing.

Its gives a few of my AAA IF a few years to figure out who wants the spot.

Very happy with our Matusmoto signing. We think he'll have a huge bounce back year with us without sacrificing defense.

Chavez extension was our Free Agency. Couldn't be happier with the deal.

How long are the FA sims?

How long are the FA sims?

First three are 16 days... the last one goes until the first day of ST... could be 16... could be 18.... could be less. Depends on the calendar.

Last year team option. Beautiful.

You seem overly positive lately. Are you on drugs?

You seem overly positive lately. Are you on drugs?

You prefer me being the grumpy negative guy that tries to tell off people?

I figured no one likes that guy so I've decided to just be happy and positive here like I am in life.

Edit. Also free agency is going exactly as I've wanted it to so I guess I'm just happier and it's seeping into SGN because I only have so much sunshine to share in my natural life.

Will he hit lefties? It seems like his contact rating went down and it affected his ability to hit lefties and because of those struggles he couldn't touch righties. You know, angry with performance and just suffering across the board.

But I like the signing if he bounces back against righties. He can hit them well. Last year seems to be aberration, definitely.

We strengthened our bullpen by signing Willie Taylor and Pat Williamson.
