Expansion and Other Things

IIRC, Albany took the worst beating.

You were up there too. I saw a lot of NY, Albany and Sheltown. Mind you Sheltown/Philly did a huge deal afterwards so that could be partly the reason as to why i saw sheltown so many times. It was a quick skim, i looked for "2010 Norcal" or "2010 Toronto" for the players.

[Uuaww]

I dont think I have ever laughed so hard on these boards as I have in this thread in the last few hours.

Yall some funny mofo's. Ive been playin mkb season all day, almost to as break n id have to say there is alot to do with this game.

That being said, thnx everyone for prolly best $20 I spent on a game. Cant wait to get started.

Do the games jus get simmed, or do we actually met up n play it out, like u do in the single player version?

If anyone should be pissed after me going over this its shel. I swear I seen Sheltown at least 10 times .

That's cause I was a dedicated owner who killed it in the inaugural draft.

What ever happened to that GM, now I'm turrible.

Wow I take a nap and this thread explodes.

I"m not against expansion, I just said we should wait til after this season as it seems like we're constantly changing shit and we can't ever get settled in.

I would agree, Corey has been quite grumpy recently. Probably the pregnancy rubbing off on him.

Unanimous

happy as can be

i vote after 2017 season. if the new guys cant wait another 7 weeks ,hen maybe they werent going to last in the long run. let them some experience in usbl and then tht gives us time to get ready for expansion in regards to resigning guys or not and looking at free agency.

I agree here. Just because we COULD rush and get them in this season, doesn't mean it's the best way to do it. We just made the transfer over, we just tried to iron out draft stuff, we're just now trying to sign new draft picks, we just went through all the media revenue crap and haven't had a full year on the new game to work out the kinks and get used to everything.

If we wait til after next season, we can figure out exactly how we want to do the draft, exact numbers etc. We can also decide if we want to contract NE to the new guys, we'll know if Texas or any others have gone missing, etc. It will be great to have these guys, but we don't need to do it the wrong way.

i dont feel like cultivating prospects for a whole other season only to get them taken then....take then now and save me the trouble....expand after 2016

I'm not talking about the new guys, I'm just saying we keep changing stuff. New teams, new game, etc. It doesn't really matter, the tribe has clearly spoken

lol, anyone who wanted 2 team expansion has 0 idea how baseball works, it cant be done with 2. 22 teams? we'd have a 12 divison/10 division because series happen so you cant have constant off days. So duhhh, has to be 4 (becomes 24, can split to 6 divisions of 4)

you realize baseball had 16 and 14 team leagues for the past 15 or so years? And this year they are doing 15 and 15. So it can be done with 12/10 or even 11/11. Not ideal as 24, but possible.

going to 15/15 is incredibly stupid and its gonna effectively kill the interleague play. every series will have 1 interleague game.

3 game series, how can you have them with 15 teams? 7x2 = 14, 1 time gets a night off say game 1, but whos off game 2? and who is that 15th team replacing? How is it even possible its not.

Its a stupid idea, and the only way it works is they kill series which i doubt they will, or we'll always have interleague play.

I don't know the math behind it, but their schedule makers figured it out. It is actually 2013 when Houston goes to AL West. And they have said yes, that there will always be at least 1 interleague series for the entire season. The point is that they have made unbalanced leagues and odd amount of teams in a league work.
