In the end, it comes down to throwing one pitch after another, and seeing what happens. With each new consequence, the game begins to take shape.
this other Chicago franchise can just gently caress right off though

Huh, every AL division has two teams tied for first, and the NL East has a three-way tie at 7-7. Weird.

e: jeff is tied for last (wit the dying former Montgomery Burnses) at 5-9 :stare:

ee: I also have the most runs scored and best pythag :stare: :stare: :staredog: :getin:

Zimmer has rolled, we're in Season 3, so a chance to get a young franchise if you wanna go that route. We've had a handful of goons bail since last season ( :( ) but there's still plenty of us around. Should have about 4-5 openings, including a few teams with top 6 picks.

FINALLY

you should def take one of these teams if you have enough spare money to lose and you're not Art. Maybe if you build the franchise back up again you can be the one to eliminate me in the NLDS, instead of some non-goon!

Reminder that we have 3 openings, teams with picks 4, 5 and 11 in the upcoming draft. The team with the 4th pick has some cool young cheap ML talent too.

Very excited for the latest round of major engine/UI improvements to not be made with this latest round of maintenance

+ As an aside, Luke/Mullin/Mintz have totaled as many BB as the rest of my hitters combined, and that includes 3 BB by pitchers hitting
