He will join Robles on the DL at some point. Hmmm i dont think i ever blamed you for a injury. Overall injury free in this league for years but last year was bad. Besides that's Cookeville job.

gettin' rdy for the draft. better find some hidden studs.

Keeping people scouted is much easier on OOTP22

[shel311]

I 100% gave up on trying to scout on 21.

Granted I gave up and didn't even offer free agency with over $100 mil available, but that's a different story

[TheGobOne]

Thought about signing Cannon but didn't want to be a dick.

OOTP22 is nicer on the scouting for sure. As long as you have a decent amount in Amateurs the draft comes mostly scouted up already which is nice. That way you can get the guys you really care about to Very High if you want.

(Relatively speaking since it’s a video game)that means a lot, thanks

I actually was gonna play him against lefties cause he had the best OPS against them last year in the FA pool. I got a guy in R5 though so I let him be lol. Wanted to sign him though. Always nice to see a guy play the whole career with one team. Triggering when a guy should retired and doesn't *cough* Motsuzuki *cough*.
