2012/2013 Offseason

shit i thought i exported, doing it now unless you already advanced the file

done

Sorry man Id already started

no big deal, i didnt do anything major anyways. sorry could have sworn i exported it last night

FYI the emails will say we did not sim any days but we did. I did it differently so you guys didnt get the email and start downloading shit before I made the changes for this year. Everything seems to have gone smoothly. Interesting schedules with a ton of interleague play as it will be in real life once the Houston move goes down.

THe file is a heckuva lot smaller now too. Until the season starts that is.

Eh.. not that much smaller, still 114 MB zipped. Was looking at the wrong thing. We were up to 170 zipped.

Sim complete. File is up. Next sim tomorrow. Exports due by 8. That will sim us to the beginning of Spring Training.

Encarnacion, Oriz, Mike Adams, Bedard still out there

Also it looks like OSA did a rescout once we hit preseason. I will do another as well as update photos for the opening day sim.

nice, now i can finally talk about how the rockies were just giving away good talent on the waiver wire, thank you sir.

Man the Brewers would have been better off resigning Grienke instead of dropping all that chedda on Peavy and Lewis

If Peavy does well with being wrecked I might take a stab at Mark Prior just for the hell of it. I still don't know what injury-prone actually does and I have been basing a lot of decisions off of that

FYI...Mark Prior just retired

Wish I could hate this. Just playing the cards I was dealt. Couldn't resign Greinke and tried when he hit the market.

Lewis has a team option in the third year... Don't plan on him being around for that one... Just enough time for one of the studs in AAA Nashville to jump up.

Sim starting in about 45 minutes.

Missing exports from:

ryalaman
Darkwing
PepperNY
KnightNoles

damn it.. I'm on it!

You have a bunch of guys who are gonna time out on DFA. Better get it fixed! This is a 30 day sim.

jump on skype!

Is an export tracker something we might use?

Like I said a few weeks ago, I wanted to get statslab running but Shaun has been really busy.

Exported. I've been trying to work on lineups, but I realize that they dont really matter yet.
