#bEASTly predictions.

Yes, the NL East is.

[wdoupis]

Lol, man I’ve been trying to sign like 8 guys since the first sim. I think my lineup had 3 dudes in it for the predictions

I was surprised not to see Rich Booth or Tony Lopez in the predictions.

I've learned that I need to come in as a Wild Card team to win the World Series these past 2 years. 2 lesser teams from the same division wins the World Series when the Beef pretty much owned the Central the past couple of seasons.

[Cnasty]

Playoffs are a complete crap shoot in OOTP.

Always has been, always will be.

Beef won 163 game division when my stupid manager put in a rookie with one career MLB appearance

But yeah he dominated

9-6 against the hapless Halos last season

Last 3 seasons win totals:
Omaha - 99, 108, 111
Halos - 91, 105, 110

This is still the Beef's division until we decide it's no more

The money isn't real so I don't care. This is a wash, rinse and repeat cycle for the Beef

We are happy to have double Nelson. We need some depth and veteran leadership to make up for some of the big bats we lost
