    This offseason is the best one I can remember having on paper.

    We brought back Fernando Hernandez while adding T.J. Dunn, Tom Griiffiths, and back-end relief pitcher Steven Kreighbaum, along with additional depth.

    No major losses.

    Bonus points for our biggest acquisitions being losses for our division rival.

      I'm really enjoying FA now.

      I think we've found a very good formula with decent talent hitting FA coupled with more realistic FA demands. GMs are having to make decisions that weren't required in earlier versions.

      Add in that all of our new owners are totally locked in, the competition level is awesome.

      Good job.

        Me too. The league seems financially healthy for both the teams and the players now.

          I am also pleased with how the offseason went. I think my team is better than it was last season. I've added a good number of minor league players to freshen up the system a bit.

          I didn't want to see Troy Martin go to a division rival, but I think my bullpen is still in good shape with the replacements I brought in.

          At this point, I think I need to offload a couple of my BLB players, but we're pretty much done with major moves.

          Looking forward to 2016.

            Our lineup looks scary now.
            Easily one of Pawtuckets best free agency signing in our teams history when you consider cost. He never really gave me an extension option . Always will wonder if he gave the former owner a window to lock him up. Just will never know.

            Now I hope he gets hit by a bus.

              Does team budget matter as much anymore?

              With our season ticket sales Pawtucket is showing a small surplus, just over budget of 120ml

              I usually know money side of this game inside and out(Brad may know more) but thinking I might need some help here.

                You're showing a surplus that could be applied for next year.

                Isn't budget based on previous year?

                So ticket sales are higher than last year and now you're expected to make more money than planned.

                  Thanks.

                  When you look in game yeah I'm all red, but yet I can extend people.

                  It's an interesting new look to the game. We've all come across years where we knew we'd be good the next season, but was hard to see on paper.

                  Now to try to sneak into the playoff and get DOUBLE ticket prices.

                      If we are keeping the championship bonus, the brewmaster winner will do very well for themselves.
