Preseason Predictions updated for the start of the season

If Bly has that type of rookie season I’d be ecstatic. We can’t develop pitchers in Prosper for anything so good luck young fella.

Nice to see New England down there again as well. Just feels right.

Wouldn't put too much stock in it tbh. Realizing it just took the exact lineups/rotation. Ann Arbor will not win 49 games.

You just keep pressing the button and let me enjoy the moment there chief!

Love when I trade a 56 rated prospect and then he blows up to a 75. I hope his arm falls off and as it is flying thru the air it hits Andy Wilkins and blows both of his knees out

I think voting on the names would be one of the most fun things we have done in a while

too bad we are the no fun league

I would need help. Some kind of group/committee to help with the list of names for each.

I can PM you some names that shouldn't be on there. But I'll go out on a limb and throw one out there.....MAL GRADY shouldn't even be discussed anymore for any type of award

Goodness, so specific!
We hope he becomes a HOFer and we will send a fruit basket to Omaha.

You gotta be original! Riccio sends fruit baskets for dead owners. We'd like a good cheesecake with a nice bourbon butter sauce please

Yeah all my good players are benched for spring training so they don't get hurt. The predictions that get generated after the exports are pulled tomorrow are the ones to use.

I offered Tim White 5 years 94 million the first 5 sims of FA and finally withdrew it and went for smaller guys. Good job dumbass

He signed for 3 years, $56 million total

Ahhh, I read that as 3 years for 19 total. Not so bad then

[ajalves]

i enjoyed it when ST injuries were off

Both losses to Shelby came by giving up 5 runs in the 9th... Unacceptable.

EDIT: Bob Veeck with 3 blown saves in a week. Is there a record for this?

If there is I guarantee one of my teams is it

Carlos Castillo had 35 saves in 2085, had him closing again the next year and he kept blowing saves to start the season and had to move him to a setup role after 2 or 3 weeks. He finished with 13 saves and 7 blown saves. My guess that most of those 13 saves came as a setup guy.
