Offseason File is up. Reports and S+ to follow.

- Reminder that your budget is set to last year's regular season revenue. The email you get from your owner is incorrect. Check your Finances page to see the correct number.
- The new Qualifying Offer is $17,532,361 (down from $18,148,507) based on the average salary of the top 125 players.
- Please read the offseason schedule and let me know if you have any issues.

- GHOST PLAYERS HAVE BEEN DISABLED. This means if you have 3 pitchers in AA the game will use only those 3. Please field a full team (I personally run 24 player teams to maximize playing times for the players I want starting).

- The following teams had excess cash converted to stadium seats (this is something I'm going to do default for all teams going forward, no sense in wasting cash if you end up over - this is AFTER revenue sharing just FYI):
  • Moose Jaw - 9.67M (rounded to 10M) added 2k seats
  • San Francisco - 25.16M (rounded to 25M) added....whoops already at max seats lol


2089 Champions
NDL - Prosper Eagles
AAA - Saskatoon Riot (Moose Jaw)
AA - Gold Beach Kingfish (Baltimore)
A - Fredericton Pharaohs (Bloordale)
A- - Fairbanks Gold Hearts (Bloordale)
R - Lafayette Aviators (Shelby)

Nothing you can do when you get close to 48K fans a game but can't go over $20 a ticket. That was after multiple ALCS appearances and a WS appearance in 5 straight playoff apperances. Even upped my Market Size to Above Average and Fan Loyalty to Very Good. Oh well, we tried to win one and failed. Now it's just time to see how many hits Stead will end up with, my guess is top 8 all time at his current rate, and how quickly Fernandez can get to 3000 hits, another 6 years right after his 33rd birthday.

Excellent thread title and feels good to start planning for the parade.

Ring ceremony will be the first home game against NE as we couldn't have done it without their continued push in 2089.

New year, same Sheltown.

My #2 overall pick in the 2088 draft has dropped from 80 potential down to 62 by OSA and from 61 to 50 by my scout.

That's not as bad as my #4 overall pick in the 2087 draft who was drafted at 78 potential and is now 38 potential.

Painful day in having to release Buddy Villarreal in the midst of constructing his Reggie Jackson like statue outside of the Eagles Nest after his World Series performance.

I just realized I forgot to change the QO in game. I will change it now and will be correct next sim.

Bilel needs 7.9 more WAR to pass Richard Todd for 2nd all time.

Very possible he does it considering his ratings seem to be holding up
