SIM COMPLETE - 1989 - Free Agency 3 (Off Season 6)

[BradZ]

Whoa... whoa... I like to think that Washington lead the league in not making the playoffs this year. I think you didn't factor in "hype" and "over-confidence". DC actually finished with a -76.53 EPA.

Dammit, I just can't win!

Philly on the other hand, may have the best offense in the IL

Better than Virginia, Cali, Washington, and Baltimore?

[Jake]

I'm fairly sure we took two steps backwards this offseason. We won't have the bullpen we had last year and I don't think we can come close to 953 runs again.

[Pat]

Better than Virginia, Cali, Washington, and Baltimore?

I don't think D.C. deserves to be in that discussion.

[BradZ]

Better than Virginia, Cali, Washington, and Baltimore?

Trust me, if Clay said anything that can even be remotely construed as being positive about Philly, he didn't mean it.

I think....

Virginia has the best lineup top to bottom on paper... but there are huge question marks.... (1) Will Nino and Poling come back 100% from injury? (2) Can Woodbury stay healthy? (3) Will Gremades defensive move impact his offense? Again, on paper, I think we have the best 1990 offense... but Philly is younger and has a few less questions.

Cali... I still don't love their offense. But, I do love their team.

Washington.... best team in the IL top to bottom on paper... but it's because of the O and pitching and D... I don't think they're the best in any single category.

Baltimore... I like your young players but you have way bigger question marks than I do.... Noah George moving DL to IL... Campo have anything left.... can Wallace cut down on the K's...

I like Philly's O.

That hurts.

You're by far my favorite Philly Owner ever... how's that for positive????

Offensively,

Virginia is hands down the best on paper and in actuality. The only thing that ever hold VA back is injuries, period.

Washington just doesn't wow me like they used to. Injuries and just a step behind VA last year makes me wonder about their playoff chances this year.

California is just another top team. A .276 team BA is pretty nice to have.

In Baltimore, I don't think we take a step back offensively with George and Campo (pitching, yes). Honestly, I really only picked up Campo so I don't feel pressure to bring up Banuelos (who may be ready anyway). Either way, I'm slated to finally save 20 mil+ this year, which I'll use to finally fix this hellhole.

No disrespect to Brad, but I think his offense leans a lot on that pitching. I mean, I do realize he's got the best young player in the IL, but IMO, the pitching out there is a much bigger asset than the offense.

Sorry Linty, winning the off-season doesn't mean much. Didn't we all think Sin City won it last year?

I didn't mean it!

I like my offseason... but I'd never actually be cocky enough to actually believe that I had 'the best' offseason out of everyone.

Beat me to it.

[Clay]

I think that some times the toughest thing to do as a Contender or "Builder" in the off-season is nothing. It's natural to want to get in on the bidding, even if you don't necessarily need anything.

I'm super excited for this season. It's very cool to be entering our 3rd decade and I love how the league is now so chock full of Superstars that we all drafted. Exciting times in the BLB.

I know...guess I should've added one of these:

I'll take it.

FYI - The Awards money has now been added in the utility. Sorry about the delays. I'm going to go ahead and just leave the monies there even if people are in the RED. If you want to have it moved to your cash, I'll let you make that call. This only applies to teams who won awards and operated in the red. If you are in the black, the award money just went into your Cash Reserve.
