    Denver's Single-A affiliate the Little Rock Travelers are 92-23.

    Impressive stuff fellas.
    A couple of the hitters (Dorval, Cryer, DeLorenzo) took some major steps forward. Hoping to get a couple of these guys into AA next year.

      I've been keeping a close eye on him as well. I had offered him probably 20 minor league contracts this year and he wouldn't budge....sucks when you don't have money to offer FAs.

        According to my scout and OSA, he has taken a bit of a ratings hit but this guy was the #1 prospect in all of baseball at one point. His stats the two years haven't been great but that's been pitching in the DL, in one of the most hitter friendly stadiums for an owner that wasn't the most active. I'm desperate for help in the rotation and I think Fain immediately becomes my #1 right hander.

        Whether or not the owner was active really doesn't have an impact on whether or not this guy can pitch. He sucked for me and I didn't want him on my team. Enjoy!

          I think it's the previous owner neglected the team to the point Fain was throwing like every three days. Who knows what that did to him.

          I liked him too but couldn't give him a BLB contract.

            FYI Cleveland had an illegal contract with extending Lippert before he got his Arbitration stamp. I talked with Brandon just to remind him of the rules. No harm no foul as the contract is just voided this sim.

                  Not you...the previous owner..

                  Pittsburgh owners are hard on their pitchers...give em a break! It's one of the toughest places to pitch.

                    Go get him Mike!!!

                    As for 'Divine', actually gave him a look. 2ml was just a bit much considering our stadium project coming up soon. Me & Jistic talked about this guy alot the past decade. Bust??? no he did have a few good seasons. Disappointing?? YES considering he was a very touted prospect when first drafted then later as a #1 prospect. Other pitchers have pitched in Pitt and did well(Fud and Heriberto Rocha come to mind)

                    My scout thinks this kid is dying. Still, as a backend starter Pat has a history of getting use out of these guys.

                    Smart move by Mike eating his salary now with most of his players locked up at the moment. Well done!

                        Here's a stat.

                        Tallahassee finished exactly 96-24 in each of the last four seasons. One more win this season will help them finally break that 96-win barrier.
