Expanded roster will get some guys some playing time to see how they do in the bigs.
SP Robbie Shaffer (50/77) - Lefty that probably needs another year in AAA next season
SP Justin Moore (49/65) - Needs another year as well
SP Leonard Jewel (21/71) - Will probably never realize his potential and is stuck in the bull pen right now
SP Hector Yanez (23/63) - Definitely not ready but had to put him on my 40 man so he'll get some bull pen time right now
1B Sergio Romero (20/77) - Unless there is a big ratings boost this off season he'll spend next year in AAA as well
Spring Training call-up next season
2B Stanton Witt - looks like he can hit .320 once his ratings reach his potential. Waiting for his gap ratings to increase before bringing him up. Right now he is nothing but a singles hitter that plays good defense.
These are the times that keeps me interested still in the game.

The vast majority of us have probably known each other for 10 years now and are probably already FB friends.
FB Messenger is the easiest messenger app to transfer to IMO.

Couple of Greek Notes
-15 game win streak snapped as we went for the 4 game sweep of Toronto
-Terry Martinez currently riding a 25 game hitting streak
-Miguel Acosta had a 3 homer week which took him to 434 career home runs which is the MOST ALL TIME by a catcher in NDL history

I've resisted the Slack thing since it was mentioned as I am deathly afraid of the forums dying but today was the day I made the plunge.
Niddler has helped set up an NDL one and I think with the AIM announcement of it ending, we can utilize that as a messaging app as needed.
WE WILL NOT LET THE BOARDS DIE THOUGH!!!!!

If we're using it to only DM folks, that'll work.
Anything more, and we'll slowly start the process of moving board stuff to Slack and then THE BOARDS WILL DIE!!!

Agreed as I think we utilize it as an AIM replacement.
This is NOT replacing the boards as that is the life line to this league.
Guys can use it at their leisure or not at all if they don’t want to. All communications will go through here like normal and it’s just another AIM like option.

I am still resisting Slack. I'll use the PM here on the boards or Facebook messenger.
