    Scout him. I think if his ratings took a hit due to the injury it should show up in the scouting report.

      They haven't thus far as best I can tell. My scout consistently has had him ranked as my 2nd best player behind Gil O'Moore.

        Care to share his asking price? The guy's a stud.

          To be honest, fairly reasonable. 3/$55.5, so around 18.5 per year. I was trying to get him for around 15 and he isn't having it. I'll probably make another run at him during the off-season just to see if converting to OOTP 9 changes his mind at all.

            That's about what I expected.

              It will probably go up some once he hits Free Agency. I would have traded him at the deadline, but at this point if I can't re-sign him I'm just going to hope he helps me win a championship and take my sandwich pick.

                You can also use asking prices as a gauge of how their actual ratings are holding up as well. Doesn't necessarily translate to production, but if he's still asking $18.5... he's still a top tier player. Games not smart enough yet to factor in what he is/was making and the market into the demands.

                  I, for once have no free agents. We've completely cleaned our mess up with a lot of work. MacOwl will be a free agent by the end of 1985, but we have more than enough in the pipeline if it's his time to go. I also wanna play the how young is your lineup game.

                  Good news when most of these guys are ready to walk, my A players should be ready...well the ones that don't take hits on the way up.

                      You must be set; I can see a few guys on that list I wish I had.

                        There's 4 or 5 really, really nice names there. They'll end up being too rich for my blood... but I see at least 3 batters and 1 pitcher that would look good on just about any roster.

                          Lewis and McNeilage wouldn't be free agents if I was allowed to re-sign them....

                              Yea... is it because you don't have the game? You're either getting the game or you're not at this point... if you're not... we need to get a new owner... I'd hate to see a team go in the crapper (aka join Virginia) if it doesn't need to.
