I was surprised not to see Rich Booth or Tony Lopez in the predictions.
I've learned that I need to come in as a Wild Card team to win the World Series these past 2 years. 2 lesser teams from the same division wins the World Series when the Beef pretty much owned the Central the past couple of seasons.

Playoffs are a complete crap shoot in OOTP.
Always has been, always will be.

But yeah he dominated

9-6 against the hapless Halos last season
Last 3 seasons win totals:
Omaha - 99, 108, 111
Halos - 91, 105, 110
This is still the Beef's division until we decide it's no more

We are happy to have double Nelson. We need some depth and veteran leadership to make up for some of the big bats we lost

Did we tweak the settings again this offseason for those minor updates we discussed in terms of fielding I think it was?
