Re: 2085 Season Thread... Sweet Home Chicago
San Antonio is pretty good.
Re: 2085 Season Thread... Sweet Home Chicago
I agree, perfect time for new jerseys and caps IMO.
Re: 2085 Season Thread... Sweet Home Chicago
One thing that bugged me was when a guy in my Team Top Prospects page wouldn't have an updated picture. If any of you guys have that I can generate them a proper pic. I feel it helps with immersion. Just DM me on slack.

Did you ever figure out what the issues was? I am having the same issue. Thanks.GeorgesGoons wrote: ↑Wed Oct 06, 2021 9:03 am Current Manager will not allow me to hire a new pitching coach, he retains control over that. No biggie, I'll just fire him. Went to promote bench coach to the manager position and he doesn't want the job. Tried to promote AAA manager to the big club and he has no interest coaching for the Beef. Tried to hire a couple of free agent managers and they have no interest in coaching here. WTF is going on? Out of shit and giggles I tried promoting the rest of my minor league managers to the MLB team and none of them want the job. Obviously something is going on here.
Ended up having to force restart the game so the manager would still be here.

Re: 2085 Season Thread... Sweet Home Chicago
Nope, no clue. Checked again this morning if I could promote my AAA/AA/A managers and they have no interest in coaching for the MLB team. Obviously it's a flaw in the game and not sure how to go around it.Kslaze wrote: ↑Sat Oct 09, 2021 1:30 pmhi

Re: 2085 Season Thread... Sweet Home Chicago
I encountered the same thing a couple seasons ago. I have no clue what causes it but I just had to wait for the offseason. Or fire the coach and hire a new one. My super rough best guess is guys don't want to move until offseason.Kslaze wrote: ↑Sat Oct 09, 2021 2:44 pmany clue on this Ryan or Billy?

File is up; S+ and Reports to follow. San Francisco hasn't exported since opening day and hasn't responded to me on Slack. If I don't hear from him by after the sim on Tuesday I will start looking for a replacement.
Draft starts on Oct 13th after I sim (timer starts Oct 14th 9am Central).

I think i would rather have the sims done before you head to bed each night, and i live on the west coast. coffee just isn't the same without a ootp simmy.
