[nick]

26 and under, 61 potential(green rating), non relievers.

Sheltown - 15 players
Miami - 3

By OSA:

Sheltown - 14
Miami - 3


Want a different age range or potential, let me know I'll do it.

Those 3 guys are gonna make all the difference in the world, future is great in MIA!!!

.......crickets

Two of your top prospects under 25 POT, nice

you've clearly never looked at your prospects ... ....

Fair enough...not enough clarity with all these giant quotes.

[DRWebs]

We've come to terms with our abilities (or lack thereof) in OCD. You on the other hand have blinders on regarding an aging team and lack of young controllable talent to replace them

Spoiler!

for the record, OCD has 10 60+ talents 26 and below by my scout or OSA so we are just average, but certainly not the black hole you think

Yeah sorry, hard to quote multiple things on the mobile if they're not already linked

[DRiccio21]

Just to clear it up... I purchased 17 and exported the day we rolled over. My uploads will be spotty at best, but I'll keep the team in reasonable shape.

yawn.

see ya on the trade blocks!

[DRiccio21]

Wow, Erik White is going to get paid! Good luck there fella's.

Won't be just him... it's like 17 brought a new TV deal as everyone is flashing the cash

our contracts have always been insanely low,imo.

good to see that guys are asking for more now. well, not good for me since most of my guys are going to be getting to their first contracts soon, but in general its good.

Yep.

And let's hope Corey's correct and their asking prices don't magically come down at the start of preseason.

Agree completely and I have seen some of these guys on fringe arb or near FA really not accepting deals they would in the past. Great sign for the league again, not good for guys with little cash looking to lock up young talent long term.

Let me clarify if I didn't when I posted that. They did come down but it wasn't as dramatic as it was and very unrealistic in our last version. I would say guys asking for $25mil+ came down as low as $13-$15mil which I can live with going into spring training.

Again though, that doesn't mean it will hold true depending on how we are working the market as a group but I hope to see it hold true.

i cant wait to have money next season if the FA pool will be like this.

We've had better in the past, it's just that a lot of these guys we'd otherwise think we're pretty good are now all blue ratings on '17.

[nick]

ya a lottt of my guys ratings changed. dont know if thats a good or bad thing. I know whatever they used to rate relievers took a nose dive (as it should).

[shel311]

Some of my guys went way up.

I'm assuming they're no different, ratings just are...but secretly hoping these new ratings are more accurate!

You're negative $100m and sitting on the north side of the tax line... I'd think next season is a stretch unless you pull some crazy cash trades.

you're too negative man.

[shel311]

- Wright/Trevino aging
- Moore/Meyers gone
-$100mil in the bank
- Shortage on young prospects


Relax guys, he got this!!!

[Cnasty]

your "-" bulleting was working great until it was actually needed then confusion set in.

Waiting to see how much they come crashing down when spring training begins.
