2022 Regular Season SIM 13 Complete - Next SIM Wednesday 7/26

This isn't even remotely close to being true, and again seems to stem from your team's current circumstances.

I haven't tanked, my team is decent. Pittsburgh hasn't done this. Washington hasn't done this. Baltimore hasn't done this. I could go on and on.

With all the love to Liquid, Mike and Del as for me they are some of the best GMs around here, they have no rings since I came here.

You don't know nothing about me or how I make my teams, I am starting to get tired of your (team's current circumstances) bs quote.

My team is set to compete for the next 3 years with the core players I chose, you have been behind Dallas in the standings since u re-join the league. Your team is now mediocre, therefore you have been and you will collect high to medium Round picks... While we are re-tooling constantly since our first play-off appareance some seasons ago with low or no 1st round picks.

You will stay behind the standings for another 3 years, then yes, my window will close and I will have to tank / rebuild / retool and you can take the wildcar positions. As the way tge rules are right now. Or maybe I can re-tool in the fly as Washington do excellently year in year out. Time will tell.

So please Stop with the "your team's current situations". As you know nothing about how I play OOTP / FOF / BBCF and soon FBCB.

If we open to more IAFA / IC and International Leagues as the OOTP has evolved the lasts versions, we will have more options for re-tool and re-build instead of sucking for several years. This is a highly competitive league, and you will go nowhere near (talent wise) unless you tank (Toronto, California, Pawtucket, Death Valley), then you can have all tje talent in the world and win 0 rings because you don't know how to take advatage of it or the dice roll plays it's part.

I will say I'm not sure amassing top prospects alone works anymore. Some results seem to show the pitching prospects aren't quiet the as prospects of old and our hitting prospects are all over the map.

Not sure drafting alone is the answer.

Yeah you can draft, then use IFA / FA to complete the roster, once your high round picks are ready as you have $5M allocated to them.

Spoken by the true BLB historian.

[Sharkn20]

Yeah I am guilty to send 3 1sts and 2 2nds for a short and glass-built Stud QB who can't stay healthy for a complete season...

All of my points are to bring in to the BLB IAFA / IC and International Leagues :)

Far worse results now.

When I was dedicated to rebuilding, we were making draft picks based upon the scout. I was looking at the picks and thinking uhhh "Folland, Reisinger" really? They all turned out to be decent big leaguers. My scout ratings were spot on. I was maxing everything into PD and Scouting during this period.

Right now, my scout isn't even close on any player BLB or Minor League. My PD sucks, our prospects are developing at a much slower pace. To the point where I'm going to put more into it next season. I used to have nice player development reports in the inbox with lots of green arrows telling me to move guys through the system. It's not the case anymore. But we're winning in the BLB which is the main thing!

Same in California... None of my minor league players seem to be developing well, or quickly enough.

[PaulC]

Agreed. I'm gonna make it work for me though. I am shamelessly tanking with the hope of building an
unbeatable Super Team.

Nothing wrong with that. You had an expensive underperforming team that you turned into an unbelievable farm system. This works even better when other owners don't put any value on first round picks.

The only drawback is if your owner destroys your budget while you are 'sucking'.

Again, my team has nothing to do with it. Your team is better...great. It's a game bro.

I'll re-iterate that my plan this entire time has been to compile as many young, cost-controlled assets as possible, supplement them with the occasional free agent, and see what happens. You know, one of those team building blueprints you claim aren't possible.

Selling off all of your top picks wasn't the only choice you had. One way to combat the cycles you complain about is to continue drafting well and keeping your minor league system as stocked as possible so you can A) have a bunch of cheap players, and B) use it as a way to cycle out older expensive players and open up budget room to re-sign a younger guy or a marquee free agent.

It's annoying when you peddle a false narrative that potentially impacts votes that could change the league for the better. There are several different ways to build competitive teams.

See there's another method to winning.

Shark, as much as I enjoy you sometimes, it's really tiring to hear you talk as if you know how other people run their teams better than they do. Especially the people who have been around here a lot longer than you have. The BLB didn't begin with your arrival.

I have been impressed with how hard you worked to learn baseball and the league since you got here. That work was noticed and your success was earned.

But please let's not act like you're the only person here who knows how the game is played or that you're the foremost expert on what's going on.

Say to them to not suggest that I am arguing the current system because "the current state of my team". Then I will be fine and won't jump in their throats.

People only brought it up because you keep making blanket statements about the league as if everyone is experiencing the same thing you are and anyone who says otherwise doesn't know what they're talking about.

There are several GMs who from their own experience -- myself included -- determined there are ways other than tanking by which they can build their team.

So for you to keep coming in and saying all of their experiences are invalid and that tanking is the only way is kind of insulting, man.

We should be talking more important stuff like about how Baltimore is atop the Power Rankings.
