I’d take preseason predictions with a grain of salt. Apparently Tim Miller is a top 10 AL pitcher and I considered not taking his 6m team option. So ya.. def not top 10

Did You Know?
There are 4 franchises in NDL history to never win 100 games in a season. Can you name them?
Spoiler!
Houston, Atlanta (only two 90+ win seasons), Youngstown (six 90+ win seasons), San Diego (three 90+ win seasons)

I don’t remember who Youngstown was before JayGee took them and moved to Grand Rapids and then Youngstown.

And everyone is quarantined and begging for double sims so I expected more than the 0 season previews we have gotten. Greeks coming later this evening since I actually have new players and am not the heavy favorite anymore

Haven't done one in 2 seasons (this will be my 3rd) and we went NLCS and WS while not doing them. Going to stick with it.....
And now we will miss the playoffs

Was the only one last season who did one. Had a whooping 2 replies, with one of those being me. Yeah, no thanks.

Coming from someone who has written his fair share and made a concerted effort to comment on others, these are a waste of time with this group. Now what would really ramp up the page count is if someone got hold of all the individual slack conversations between users and posted them a la a wikileaks

Yeah, they don't seem to be worth the 45 minutes or so to do them to get 3 comments but I still like them and read them. I like to see what other teams have in this format and also what they think they have.

I'll do a crappy one later today. But it will be full of unbridled optimism and hope. The boards will hate it.
