Jesus Pat!!! Master again at work. Unreal.

Hey, if you wanted to vote for GM of the year how would that play out if you say wanted to vote for Pitt??

The credit goes to Mike.

I've just been an advisor. He has been the one to execute/negotiate every trade. I've just given my opinions and thoughts, while he has final say on everything. This is his team and his players. I've been here for less than half a season suggesting a tweak here and there.

Credit (and thanks) also should go to Mike for coming up with the idea of bringing me into the front office.

Though, there are some other very deserving GMs not named Pat - bparks, BDub, Hank...

If Morgantown makes the playoffs for the first time, it's going to be tough not to vote for Hank.

With Wilmington winning (currently) the toughest division in baseball, would also be tough not to vote for Bparks.

Still amazing especially even with a certain "tilt" your team has. If you both make the playoffs your gonna need to avoid certain teams, but anything is possible come playoff time.

I leave tomorrow for a few weeks so it's all on Mike anyways.

Graffing got his 2nd weekly award in AAA in a month there... And we desperately need help hitting against lefties... Damn it, 21 years old but he is doing fantastic... Is really hard to keep him there, but I know I have to wait at least until September.

In theory this was our year to get ready, not to go for it... But being so close to reach the play offs for the first time since I took over is so tempting...

I am extremely pleased to have Pat involved with the Millers organization. He knows this game so well and I am excited each time I can hear how he views situations. It's worked out better than I could have hoped/imagined. Any thought of a vote for Pittsburgh for GMOTY should immediately be changed to WIL, MOR, HAR, and NO or DAL anyway. They've been tremendous additions to the league, and they have made great strides with each one of their franchises.

Nice to see Rogelio Marquez doing well in A ball.

Always enjoyable to find undrafted free agents that can do some damage in the minors. Marquez was signed late last season but did not make an appearance. He started off as Domino Brown's backup at 1B but after doing a great job in that spot, he was promoted to the starting lineup in June. All he's done since is bat .390 as a starter and hit 3 home runs.

Another undrafted free agent we love is Erik Rider. He was selected to the All-Star Game and is currently hitting .298 with 18 home runs. He's also fielding at a Jimmy Lockard rate.

26-9 for a team that was 28-37 and left for dead in less then 2 sim months is one hell of a turnaround by team MiAt.

So Delandis brought this to my attention a while ago...when we enter the 1st-3rd place finishers in the Awards at the end of season the utility can no longer tell them apart. So a 3rd place finish is counted in StatsLab as a win. All though not the end of the world for about 5 seasons now (I think) it's throwing things off.

The Statslab creator got back to me and said until OOTP updates the code it will be like that. To fix it we just have to enter the 1st place finisher and leave the other two blank.

So we either have the player history reflect it or StatsLab reflect it. As you can see Wright has won the 2014 Stout Slugger in StatsLab but in his HTML player history it states correctly that he was 2nd.

I believe we should keep entering them #1-#3 because a click from StatsLab on the player link brings up the HTML history and we can double check it from there. Any strong dissenting opinions?

I thought it was a known issue and we just accepted it. Doesn't bother me.

[Delandis]

I'm good with it.

This upcoming sim, the non-waiver trade deadline will pass. It's one of the few times the commishes expect you to make their lives difficult.

Take advantage of this opportunity!

Trade mania!!!!!

I expect a quiet deadline.

[Delandis]

It seems so.

But don't worry, I've got you guys covered.
