History. On Tuesday, I was in NYC for work and had some free time so Carlos and I got together for a few beers. We talked work and life for about 5 minutes and then BLB for about the next hour. It was great at the time. But suddenly after that conversation my team is playing like Denver. Coincidence? Not even Rex Knight could stop this curse.

Damn, tough sim. Washington is real good and I lost the first two games in pitching duels and got blown out in Game 3. I hate interleague play :) Shaking up the team a bit at the BLB level by re-acquiring Dusty Campbell.
On the minor league side, I'm thrilled with what's going on. My AA team is stacked with premium offensive talent. Terry Mast got a ratings bump and is mashing at AA- he already has 23 homers on the year. Astimbay is hitting .320 and has 8 homers in 120 at bats. David Alba is coming back and Santana continues his slow development. If all four of those guys keep it up, I'm cautiously optimistic that my offense will be decent in a few years.

Slight salary dump for us. Ivan will be replacing Caesar Dore the rest of the way.(Dore is cut) Should be a free agent by years end so hoping to get lucky and end up with a comp B pick (I dont know how the game figues it out) Be a nice tryout for him.
Can't say I expected this outcome:

Historically Pawtucket doesn't award team options, but this may actually end up being my first.
No genuis plan on this one. Sometimes......its just luck.PAWTUCKET PATRIOTS

I was surprised no other team were putting in offers when I was shopping him that season.
I guess it's not a surprise those two teams have the best records in baseball.Last edited by Pat; 07-13-2013, 10:15 PM.Wilmington Wildcats- 2057-

Feels good to see us sitting in 2nd place although we're too far away from New Orleans, who are on a nice little run btw.
I'd like to deal Heriberto Melendez or Jonathon Robinson to anybody who is looking to add pitching down the stretch. Picks/Prospects preferred. Goes without saying that Robinson can be had for much cheaper.Toronto Canadians - 2004-

A few notes from the offices in Denver, or what I like to call Patrick Conways - where Jake and I met for some Stella's.
(he paid so it was kinda like winning a championship but without the forum fame).
Denver went 3-3 this past sim, making us 11-7 over the past three weeks. Those are amazing numbers for this club.
Syracuse has been playing like straight garbage, and yes it may not be coincidence that my run for the Pilsner lead started while Jake was flying into New York.
(just saying...)
My minor league pitchers are doing great. Potter and Parra are becoming the big headed monster PP's of the staff (intentional).
Keatts is living up to his status as the third best hitter in Denver. No but seriously. Every week he has the third best stats.
We picked up JR Travis from free falling LA and he just kinda went ahead and hired some lawyers because baseballs across the country are about to file for abuse charges.
Rex Knight is normalizing but hit another dinger (needed another penis sort of joke in here).
So all in all, it was good.
Jake and I didn't really discuss too much strategy. I don't blame him. But it was cool to talk about our (not really) respected ball clubs.
Funclown was mentioned once when we both cursed that he was in first place with the best record at the time.
