Hence why I traded him as he is more suited to be a closer versus a reliable starter long term in my opinion.
Agreed. Control>Stuff for starting pitching imo.

On the 7 day screen, the only change I make on the top right is to say Yes, use 7 day lineups. I've heard other people change a few others...but I'm not having any issues with just the first one changed. That and exporting about 13 times

Maybe it's not the most business savvy move to do that in every scenario but some owners just may really like certain players and it may help their immersion level to have said player on their team. I also think some owners get too tied up in the overall and potential ratings by their scout and OSA and that may hinder talks
For me, wasn't an attack on Coug. Just pointing out how scouts may vary on just how valuable a player is.
Wrong Shane, I think duster is Shane too
I was referring to you since a couple people seemed irritated you wouldn't move a certain player even though they thought he was a average to good talent and offered enough. But like I said even if it isn't smart to do it everytime, there's no reason why someone has to feel obligated to trade someone just because people make offers
Oh well I don't give a fuck what people think.

Rookie opinion here but it appears to take most pitchers at least 3 full seasons before you get their true MLB potential. So like Corey said probably not dramatically, but maybe enough to stay in the rotation

i'm not surprised at all.
solid vets playing on shitty teams seem to love a new start on a new team. even a guy like Weddington went from a good player to the guy i always expected him to be in Washington. some dudes just need a fresh start.
guys like Reyes and Potts probably would get the same boost.
