WTF is going on in Baltimore? New medical staff is needed.

[Delandis]

You've got to be f'n kidding me.

I already fired the last set. Seems like I have a decision to make.

Fact or fiction? Pat hits selects all and right clicks to "offer minor lg contract" on the free agent screen.

That's got to be a new record!

50% have already been released. I had about 10 openings in my minor league system and a handful of just fillers.

I already know this is what he does.

[mike]

Yessssss Bafford is locked up for 4 years 47 mil with a 15 mil player option for year 5!

Signed Zi for the pen and added Perez who looks like he may be a nice young arm for the future. Got a ton of financial flexibility, have some young players on the cusp, few more additions and well be ready to head into the season.


Delandis... Idk what to say man that's ridiculous.

That sucks dude....never seen anything like that before.

On the bright side if you elect to let him retire, that's a lot of cash off the books.

Pawtucket extended Morales and Nygaard to reasonable extensions this way we don't deal with those crazy arb escalations. That takes care of round one.

Then we decided to offer actual money to 2 guys who have glanced the top 100 prospect list. Sometimes you need to take some gambles.

Two guys who never should have been let leave. Nice signings.

We got all our targets for the right price.

IF Javier Villareal is a bargain power bat at $2m to pair with defensive specialist Dave Sherrod at SS and use as a UT IF.

MR Edgar Salazar and his career 2.85 ERA bolsters our bullpen at $1.5m.

SP Jonathon Burns comes over at just $1.2m and will be converted to a CL and act as insurance at the bottom of our rotation.

I'll take the best offer I can get for RJ Manning. These deals make it easier to move him and I'd like to do it right now. Bring a fair offer and he's all yours.


I can also seriously consider offers for Coma now and would take a young power hitterfor him or a package of picks/prospects. I'm ready to move him so offer now.

I'll also take a pick/prospect for Perkins. I've decided to keep Dave Bryan in RF as a back-up.

Let's talk, I'm ready to finish tweaking this roster.

Both former Baltimore projects.

I didn't offer Franks as much but Ian took less to play in Pawtucket.

Probably afraid he'd get injured again in Baltimore.

The transaction log is an embarrassment. Seriously this is just plain wrong.

[umd]

Oh, we extended Garza, Bell and Bryan at great contracts. Best offseason sim I've had in a few seasons.
