2007 Off-Season Sim 1 Complete - Next SIM Tues 8/19

[Pat]

Also a lot of former Pawtucket talents.

30ml payroll and a slew of drafts picks to build on. Could be time to jump back in the game.

Just offer all one year deals. If you fail, trade them at the deadline.

Well we got time anyway since it will be awhile til some of these kids pop.

Not saying it's time to go for it, but thinking the dark days of 50win seasons might be over.

UMD doesn't believe you.

I don't at all. We all know funclown has been eyeballing this draft for 2 seasons tanking all the way because he loves it's depth. He'll continue to suck, say he 'might' try, just so he doesn't look like he's trying to lose as many games as reasonably possible for next year too.

Anyone he signs is just to flip on June 15. What's changed in the division? He says he's 'waiting' for CLE and PIT to come back to earth that's why he blew it up. CLE won 100 games and isn't going anywhere, PIT made it to game 7 of the Brewmasters and isn't going anywhere. Funclown will continue his tank rebuild no matter what he says around here...

[funclown]

Either way, lots of OF to be had along with the usual dime a dozen RP. Maybe a starter or two. As usual some of these guys want outrageous money but that's how free agency goes. Most will come down.


Lol, we won our two arbitration cases. (Bums). How'd the rest of you do? Looking now and while I'm sure some of you won, I can tell a few of you got kicked in the teeth.

[Delandis]

Well my manager and team trainer retired so there's that.

Lol, new "neutral" scout from Jake and looking at the wild swings from my "tool" scout is awesome. He new guy thinks some of my players should quit the game of baseball. This is one positive about this version is the variation of views.

Disclosure, we had a 8.5 ml scouting budget last season. Curious Jake what was your budget?? (You don't have to say it if you don't want)

League minimum due to our budget situation. He's a good one though, I trust him. Only missed really bad on one guy who I took a flyer on in the second, Melvin Chavez. Kinda expected him to flop.

Anyone need a young OF or middle infielder should look at my system and offer up.

No files will be imported for this sim, right?

[Z]

I'm 90% sure files get imported for this sim.

[BradZ]

They do, yes.

It's Free Agency 1.

In case anyone is wondering, you should start making bids.

[Carlos]

Who were the International players? I must have deleted the email.

I can't remember the names but one of them is Japanese, is supposed to be the cream of the crop and hits like Ichiro with no legs and one arm.

You probably shouldn't have told me that.

I don't know if I got the international email either...

But Tanaka is the cream of the international class. Speed, defense, good eye and some pop..and durable.

Gabrielle Clareno is asking for a six-year, $13.5M per deal. You guys could have had this guy for $5M in arbitration and a 4th round pick to me.
