Excited to see what this kid can do as he is the only player in the game with 100+ steal and speed ratings and the centerpiece of many trade discussions the last couple years.
Hate to mess with the mojo though on a 10 game winning streak.
Edward Stevens and Ken Mullins the same way, but really small sample sizesCnasty wrote:The moment was too big for ya rook.Cnasty wrote:James West will get the September call up to bring some speed and a lefty bat to the LU before taking over a corner spot full time next year.
Your day will come.
Yea I have always preferred for the September call up versus thrust into the bigs on opening day. No rhyme or reason, just feels better from a little digital fella mentality.DRWebs wrote:Edward Stevens and Ken Mullins the same way, but really small sample sizesCnasty wrote:The moment was too big for ya rook.Cnasty wrote:James West will get the September call up to bring some speed and a lefty bat to the LU before taking over a corner spot full time next year.

Were you high last night? This was easy to debunk. I know John Patton was traded for from Trendon but I cannot prove it so even if you want to take that as your "win" you are incorrect on all your claims of previous owners work, in which I took over from Dr. Tom during the playoffs of the 2020 season.nick wrote:You joined in 2022 taking over for Sioux City which was built for a run.GeorgesGoons wrote:You should focus on not being a mediocre owner who has the same amount of championships as a bad ownernick wrote: you need to focus on not choking

you won your title off the back of the previous owners work. Based off WAR, 5 of the 7 top hitters on your title team you inherited and the 3 good pitchers you had were all inherited as well. Your team was good enough then to beat Reign and somehow in this era you cant even field a playoff team? Try earning your own title before you call me mediocre.
I love how you claim to know everything yet are wrong on damn near everything you post about my horrible team.nick wrote:I like that I live rent free in your head
Hell, I say my team is bad and that I haven't been a good enough owner. So you are just trying to triple stamp my double stamp.nick wrote:I say your teams horrible right? Seems like I'm perenially correct..
This isn't a one year thing. I've always said my team is not good, which they haven't been. This year has been an oddity, they played lights out the first 2 months and have gone to pretty much what I was expecting for the season.nick wrote:Ya you're pulling a Bigry. Hype your boys up dont put them down.
Beef Prediction:
Omaha goes 87-75 and loses playoff for last wild card spot.
I think the rule I presented passed where the player had to be 25 or 26 before signing a long term deal worked better than the current one.DRWebs wrote:Either demands are ridiculously low again or the Cuevas rule has been the worst thing to happen to the league in 20 or so seasons... Virtually every top young player is signed to below market deals and will never hit free agency. Hard to see how this one has turned out well for the whole of the league

*cough* 5 Year Max *cough* - 10 yrs is insane and no 24/25 in real life would ever sign something like that.DRWebs wrote:Either demands are ridiculously low again or the Cuevas rule has been the worst thing to happen to the league in 20 or so seasons...
