Opening day

[dakshdar]

Couple questions from the new guy:

1. Are what's the sim schedule like?
2. What's the duration of each sim?
3. What's up with the minor leagues? Should I care that I don't have full rosters down there?

Sorry if these are answered somewhere but I didn't notice an all encompassing thread with the league details...

I have to second this, the season schedule that Trendon had posted for us is extremely helpful. If that could be done for this league also it would be great. Id be happy to help.

1. Are what's the sim schedule like? 6 Days a week. usually saturdays off. Exports due by 7pm CST but usually i sim later than that.
2. What's the duration of each sim? 10 days
3. What's up with the minor leagues? Should I care that I don't have full rosters down there? League voted not to include fictionals. The historical rosters only include players that had at least one appearence in MLB so naturally they're smaller. with time it will fill up. Ghost players are enabled so theres no worry of players no developing. Ghost meaning like when we were kids playing baseball with 5 friends. "Ghost man on 2nd"

So does that mean my stud at AA can get a double, claim Ghost man on 2nd, and go bat again? 30 something at bats a game could really help him develop!

So I guess 7-day line-ups pose no purpose here. Should make for an interesting first upload since I set my team to use them.

[mbyrd75]

right on the 7day lineups. be sure to set your depth charts though

Everyone still with us?

I only see 2 team trading blocks. Let's do this slackers!!!

Another question from the peanut gallery:

With the lack of a minor league system being fully stocked, I don't have another SP in my organization that could be brought up if someone gets injured at the ML level. Are we playing with injuries off?

Also, I'll go post a few other 1-pitch pitchers in the player's fix thread.

Free agsnts
Waivers

Free agents - not much
Waivers - not much
Cards - a little something

Good to see you keeping the Mets realistic

This is the past. We're actually predicted to come in second "this" season.

How can there only be 5 unsigned FAs total?

I believe there were none to start with.

Everyone had same thing to look at, We all have little to no prospects, And we all are very short on players. But i bet that these guys dont go down as much either.

But yes offer the CPU 1 -1 trades, HMU, or anyone else. Sure you can come across something you are looking for. Waivers is prolly best bet other then a trade

Got the sim email and went to download but it didn't find a new file.

Do we wait for a post to download or am I doing something wrong with my OOTP13 (the first sim downloaded fine)?

[mbyrd75]

thats my fault. I hit upload and left but something failed in the upload and i just got back. should be up in 5-10 min
