That's not correct considering I walked through coach re-hiring and non-tenders with him yesterday. Not sure why that hasn't updated.

In that case, I guess the pool of 500 is selected before ranking instead of the entire eligible pool being ranked, otherwise everyone would have Forbes listed.

Because I was curious, had free time and you brought it up, here's what came of all of your top 10 draft picks, first season excluded.

It wasn't really meant as a burn I was just curious and wanted to map it out. I'd have done OPS for position players but that would've meant an extra Player Statistics tab for totals and extended and going back in time and blah blah I stopped short.

If anyone else wants something mapped I could do a range or selection of seasons as a time killer if you have a curiosity

Monday, March 23 2015

The next step in our under-the-hood upgrades will be overnight Tuesday, March 24th - Wednesday, March 25th. We will be migrating and unifying our database servers to the latest version.

In order to accomplish this significant task, we must push all our game schedules back 24 hours. We've had to do this a few other times in our company history. Here's a quick overview of what it means:

At 4:00PM ET on Tuesday, March 24th, we will de-activate all processes that result in games being simulated, recruiting and free-agent negotiating, etc. Basically, anything that happens during one of our processing cycles will be halted for 24 hours.

At 4:00PM ET on Wednesday, March 25th, we will re-activate all processes and games will proceed normally.

During the time in between, you'll still be able to access your teams and perform actions, but any action requiring our periodic processing will be paused until the following day. For example, in Hardball Dynasty, you'll be able to change your lineup or sign a Tryout Camp player, but if you put in a waiver claim or free-agent offer during the offseason, you won't hear back until the following day.

To make this happen, we will be pushing all scheduled events back 24 hours. So a game that is currently scheduled for March 26th, for example, will be adjusted to be played on March 27th.

The entire website will be down overnight from very late Tuesday to early Wednesday AM. Estimated time offline is 6 hours.

To reiterate the post above, this is another step we need to take so that we can return to frequent and meaningful updates to our games.

Ottawa if you're still reading this thread: no need to up your draftee signing bonuses until they tell you. If they say something like "your offer's ok, but I'm considering" you can leave it alone. They won't sign quicker if you up the offer, and it won't sway their eventual decision to sign.
