2088 Season Thread - Once upon a time in Hollywood

Major Injuries
None

Jake Wolfe going down for 5 weeks hurts the Beef. Gonna have to go with another AAA callup in Julio Leon.

Major Injuries is if a guy would need to be put on the 60 day DL to me. So if they aren't out 2 months I usually don't post it. Most teams can weather that short of an injury with depth.

Using McCraw and tear in the same sentence. Dangerous game you're playing there bud.

In 4 months David Austin has dropped from 86 stuff to 52 for no other reason than just old age as far as I can tell.

Basically about 75% of prospects and free agents I add to my org have this happen within the 1st year
