Man, that Huckleberry Predictor hates me. All of those players we added and it predicts we will win basically the same amount of games.

I will win it over one of these days! Or maybe I will plant a virus on it!

We are looking to add a big fish! I have a bunch of prospects and they are all available in the right deal.  Looking for a #1 type SP as our main priority, however also looking for upgrades at C, SS, and OF.

Salary is not a concern. PM me.

Has any decision been made on lowering the randomness? Just asking as I am watching more of my top prospects lump. Hodges and Medina being the latest...

There is sort of a different argument happening here. The initial discussion wasn't about the actual ratings of players. It was about development, or a severe lack of it. It was about players not developing to their potential, not weather a .250 hitter is a 5 or 7 contact.

I have been at this longer then most on here and I can say with certainty that the prospects in this league bust more then any league I have been in. The data provided here is a big enough sample size to support that.

Is this a dead issue? Another impact it has on me is trading. When I first came into this league I traded a bunch of vets for several really good prospects. Almost every single one of those guys crashed and burned. Makes it difficult to trade when it's very likely the prospects you get won't develop.

But if it was changed, or bumped slightly, maybe more guys would reach their potential. Or, at least come close to it.

I also get frustrated by the development, or lack of development of the prospects in this league. Ever since I took over this team we have picked in the top 1-3 spots. Other then Rhodes who is developing slowly, and probably will never reach his potentials. All my other guys have hardly developed at all. Biggest one I check regularly is

SP Deleon (AAA) Santo Domingo
vs
SP Liu (A) Carolina

When these guys were drafted they were very close in ratings. Almost identical. They were picked 1 & 2. I actually liked Liu better because his pitches were more developed. Now Deleon is almost ML ready and Liu is still several seasons away at least. This is just the one example I listed, but as I have said, I can't develop any prospects at all. If it was a one off then I would chaulk it up as a bad luck. Especially on the pitching side of things. They can't develop pitches and the control always seems to drop. I guess my point is I have been at this since v6.5 of OOTP and never seen development at such a slow rate like this..

PS- I don't know why my avatar no longer works on this site..

Why is this glitch targeting Carolina?? lol..  Now Nobert Rhodes, probably the best prospect in the game has retired. No email, no nothing...

Maybe the new patch will correct this??

So I have a little bit of a log jam at 2B. I am looking to deal one of these guys for a SP who is at the same point of their careers.

2B/SS Carlos Garcia (AAA) - Ranked the 18th best prospect. He is vary close to being ready and provides a nice combination of contact and power.

2B Dominic Underhay (ML) - Came up late last season and tore it up. He hit 7 HR's in part time AB's. He also had an .819OPS.

If you have a SP that meets my needs send me a PM.

Out of curiosity..would injuries be set to what we normally have? I can't say as I would be too happy to lose a key player for 12 months or something in a tournament that is basically for $$$ when most teams have a ton of it already.

More doom predicted for Carolina and rightly so, but I really like where our organization is. When I took over this team it was kinda stuck in that middle ground of not being a contender but not really being bad. I stripped it down and knew that last season and this one would be tough. There is some light for us after this season though. We have some good prospects at the AAA/AA level who should hopefully be making their way to the ML level next year. Our farm system is pretty solid now and will only get better after this season.

There is light at the end of the tunnel....way, way at the end but it is still there.

January 1st works. I like getting my players into the system as soon as it is possible. Coop makes a good point as well if you are looking for potential offseason trade partners then it certainly helps to get them in there soon rather then later.

A couple of players here who could help a contending team.

3B/RF  Eligio Sciama - Having a great season so far on a very poor hitting team.
http://www.worldbaseballassociation.com/reports/news/html/players/player_1921.html

IF Alberto Ramos - Great defense at SS and 3B. Still only 26yrs old. I have no room for him to play.

Don't you think you item 1 & item 2 are contradicting? You want better quality free agents but then you want a way for teams to prevent their young stars from becoming free agents.

WBA Times / Washington on the move
« on: September 12, 2017, 12:21:16 PM »
Ok, so I had initially planned to move the Washington franchise to Carolina. The new franchise would be the Carolina Flight. When gathering the logos/jersey's etc for the minor league teams I couldn't decide if I wanted to move them to Carolina anymore. I am looking for a league vote here on where to move the team. Would you rather see them in Carolina as the Carolina Flight...or in Duluth as the Duluth Dragons?

« on: September 08, 2017, 08:30:10 PM »
Hi guys,

Just wanted to introduce myself. I am taking over in Washington. I plan to move the team to Carolina in the offseason.

I am an OOTP vet. I think the first league I joined was v6.5. Been in several leagues since but always stick around if I enjoy them.

I am currently in Monty Brewester (30 seasons) and PBDL for 20.
