Per commish, we need to split this into two deals.
$30m now for the 2126 picks. $23m later for the 2127 picks.

Ottowa sends $53 million.
Mumbai sends all tradeable picks -- 2126 rounds 3, 4, 5. All five rounds in 2127.
Teams are okay with all starting cash from Ottawa moving now and the rest being moved midseason if that is easier for commish.

Uhlirz to leadoff and starting at 3B against RHP and LHP, I have made room in the lineup and depth chart. Ainslie straight into the spot Koushika will vacate. Subas to bullpen as middle relief normal usage, specialist as secondary role. Made room on the 40-man for all three.

Mumbai has several major league caliber players available. Looking trade them for younger prospects with similar potential, package them for a major league upgrade, or trade them for picks. Andy Jensen - Corner Outfielder that will absolutely obliterate right handed pitching to the tune of .915 OPS for his career. This isn't some inflated statistic thanks to Mumbai's home park...he's done it in LA, Santo Domingo, and Puerto Rico as well. And his 10 arm means that he is above average in the field. Jean Picot - The French giant is very similar to Jensen. Cheaper contract but still has a career .880 OPS against right handed pitching. William Cranidge - Power hitting corner infielder with the cannon to play third base. Probably should be on the Mumbai major league roster but has fallen victim to the GM's sentimental preferences for other players. Ross Iddon - Swiss army knife infielder with a strong arm so he can field any position and is on a pretty cheap deal. 6/6/5/7/6 as a hitter, so holds his own at the plate. This is your gritty veteran glue guy. Archibald Feldhahn - What a name. What a power stroke. Camilo Beiro - High stamina reliever that will rack up Ks and shut down the running game. Carlos Calderon - Another solid reliever, except this one will also be a top notch pinch runner for you! Gianfrancesco Lombroso - 8/6/7 lefty that can start or come out of the pen with three plus pitches. Greg Costello - 8/7/7 relieve with 11 stamina and no platoon weakness. Might even be okay at the back of a major league rotation. There are some younger players that didn't make the Mumbai roster out of spring training, but they may still get their chance so I'm more hesitant to move them even though I'm willing to listen. Examples include: OF Grama Daryapurkar, P Wen ShengP Richello BasilaP/OF Jabber Khan ( https://statsplus.net/wba/player/6274?page=ratings will show you pitching and hitting ratings in one place).

Bank Draft in Mumbai's favor.
All Mumbai's excess cash to be transferred to Cairo to avoid being lit on fire at the end of the current OOTP fiscal period. Then sent back to Mumbai immediately after burn date. Bank of Cairo to receive a 5th round pick for their numismatic hospitality.

Mumbai roster shuffle complete. Deleon starts at SS, there is an open spot in the lineup for him - 5th against RHP and cleanup against LHP. The best fielder in the world has moved to 2B to make room for him (and also because Deleon doesn't know how to man the keystone yet).

Nah the Indian names are all pronounceable. And besides, I don't think the alleged problem is that French names are hard to pronounce. The problem is that there's so many French names. And also they are FRENCH.

It indicates free agency is broken because the players all keep declining the best offers to play in Mumbai
86
« on: August 25, 2019, 01:54:53 PM »
Since no free agents want to sign here,I may as well give some future free agents the draw of continuing to play at home.
Better go look and see what the player change rules are.

Sold Katz so I could afford to run my high-priced roster out for one more season. That will go down as one of my worst moves ever. I will never stop believing that I had the best roster heading into 2116, though.
Stupid Roberto "Clubhouse Cancer" Parrina.
Katz was basically a throw in too, the 1st round pick (which ended up #5 overall) was the headliner in that trade.

The Mumbai Cobras, perhaps the most consistently successful franchise in the history of the WBA, entered its first rebuild a couple of off-seasons ago. Prior to that, Mumbai had perhaps the most star-studded roster in the IBL and one of the lowest farm system scores in WBA history. This was management's plan. The Cobras had acquired one big name after another while emptying out its farm system, trading away nearly all of its first three rounds' draft picks for several years in a row, and frequently going into the red financially. With salary expectations skyrocketing around the WBA two summers ago, the Cobras decided that after a decade and a half of competitive fire, it was time to tear down and start over. In a flurry of activity, the Cobras lost almost their entire starting roster, which had been less than an inning away from an IBL championship series. Gone from the Cobras were star talents such as Huerta, Dhurvasula, Dwijen, Zote, Karpat, Gutierrez, Vilardeb, and Virendra. Mumbai fans were teased for a few hours when a trade for Isko Fflunker was completed, but he was traded to London almost immediately. In exchange, the Cobras acquired a boatload of draft picks and young players. This past season, Mumbai fielded arguably one of the worst teams in WBA history. Its team ERA was 5.56, a run worse than anybody else in the IBL. Coupled with an offense that barely scraped together 3 runs a game in the home run friendly confines of Cobra Park, it is no surprise that the Cobras finished 49-107 with a historic negative run differential. The good news is that the rebuild is going as planned. The Cobras have, by far, the best farm system in the world. It scores 346 in the farm system rankings. The next highest score in the IBL is 266, and the highest score in the ABL is 275. Mumbai has one-fifth of the IBL's top 100 prospects. And this already formidable farm system is going to be bolstered even further by the massive draft haul Mumbai just brought in. Though there is still a losing season or two in store, the long-term future in looks brighter than an Indian summer day. For Mumbai fans that have trouble seeing past the current doom-and-gloom, the WBA Times brings a preview of just some of the future stars that are expected to shine in the Mumbai minors this season [IBL prospect rank in brackets for current prospects, round and pick in brackets for newly drafted players]. There is no doubt in the Mumbai front office that many of the IBL's future future batting champions, home run champions, stolen base champions, strikeout leaders, silver sluggers, and gold glovers are in this list. Part 1 of this list includes hitters, and Part 2 will include pitchers. OF Vlastislav Katz [9], OF Álex Pérez [11], OF Derek Robertshaw [39], OF Jean Picot [68] - Power, speed, glove. This list has it all. Katz is the only player in this story to have made his Mumbai debut, getting a cup of coffee last year due to impending minor league free agency (he's surely back in the minors to start the season for totally not service-time related reasons). The lowestranked of these prospects has hit 65 home runs in the minors the past two seasons which is a testament to the overall depth on this list. And it gets better: perhaps the best of all Mumbai outfield prospects, a true five-tool stud with no weaknesses [1.1], is on his way. 2B/3B Gerardo Talenti [20], , 3B Hellraiser Archer [23], , 3B William Cranidge [27], SS Ross Iddon [46], SS Gauradas Chhavvi [49] - Power from every position has always been the Mumbai philosophy, and its clearly shown on this list. However, it's worth noting that Chhavvi might be greatest fielding prospect in IBL history, and his glove has been major-league ready since, oh, about age 8. C Fu Tsao [79], C Aghecher Mpasa [80] - In a league starved of catching prospects, Mumbai has two of the better ones. Both bring strong arms and pitch framing skills along with plus bats.

Mumbai has several players that are in or entering the primes of their careers, and can be valuable contributors. They are blocked at the major league level. There are some good finds here, especially for teams that have home run suppressing ballparks. RP Francisco Garcia - His 10/5/5 seems meh, but dig deeper and you realize that he is an ideal major league specialist, with ratings of 13/6/6 vs. lefties and absolutely FILTHY stuff. SP Idris Jat 10 Stuff, 7 Control, and 8 Stamina are top half of rotation caliber and worthy of his lofty draft slot (eleventh overall). His 4 movement and fly ball tendencies mean that he is risky in the Mumbai launchpad, but put him in a big park with decent outfielders and he will be dominant. RP Anargha Venkatasubramanian Call him "Venky." Similar story to Jat. 10 Stuff, 7 Control. But his 5 movement means that he will be much better for you than in homer friendly Mumbai. Mumbai is in hardcore win now mode, and is willing to listen on any minor leaguer. Top 100 level prospects ( Hussain, Rivera, Honeyfield, Soumitra, Daryapurkar, etc.) will cost more, but nobody is untouchable.

« on: October 24, 2018, 08:58:43 AM »
P Michizane Nakamura. Just focus on his numbers against right-handed batters. His 9 stuff and 10 control means he OWNS the heavy side of the platoon to the tune of the .284 OBP allowed. If you have room for a righty specialist, there's probably nobody better better at this price with 2 more years of team control. OF Manny Flores . Total swiss army knife player that hit .300, stole 60 bases, and put up 4.6 WAR in a full-time role. He can play every outfield position well, and his infield ratings mean he could actually play every infield position well too, if needed. No platoon split issues. One more year of team control.
