BSL Update: offseason #1

[slavlite]

League file is ready for everyone.

Website will for sure be updated this afternoon.

Export deadline is Wednesday at noon. I believe this will be the last export before contraction and draft.

hey Nick, when I downloaded the sim I have access to your team instead of mine. did I do something wrong?


Nevermind. I logged off and restarted the game and it came up right.

Nats exported.

Mets exported made qualifying offer to Blevins and withdrew a couple arbitration offers. Glad to sign Berry at 7 years 48 mill with last 2 years as team options. Fan interest is 99% time to bring up the young guns in the minors to contribute.

Some appetizing free agents this year and the Yankees have some $$$ to spend. Should be an interesting offseason.

Yanks exported.

 

[abncal]

Marlins exported

 

[dlackey]

If I offer a free agent a contract do I need to export after doing so?

Dennis

I agree. We will see how many of them get signed this sim, but it will be interesting. Oakland has about $60M to spend and still be on budget - AWESOME!!!!!

No one will be signing yet... FA has not opened their doors yet!! Besides aren't you bored with the game after winning back to back World series titles.. LOL!!!!

Are we not supposed to offer FA's a contract yet? If not I messed up and did one.

Thanks,
Dennis

I think we are supposed to wait a sim or 2 until they all file. It should be after arb hearings I think.

I mean the guys that will resign with their teams that they were with. Some players may have had their last years voided and teams will still try to work deals before they file for free agency. It happened last year as I had my hopes dashed on a few guys.

David, if they are currently on the free agent list, and you are able to go in and offer them contracts, then you are good to go. Guys showing up on the free agent list are currently free agents.

And Kendall, no, I am not bored, LOL. Gotta try to do what the A's did in the early 70s, and get to 3 in a row.

Dennis, if they are listed under the Free Agents tab, you can offer them contracts. The majority of quality free agents will come live after the contraction draft takes place. That is when the big money will get spent.

On a side note, ANY time you make ANY change in your software, you will want to export. Otherwise, there is no way for Nick or I to obtain the changes you made. The export button updates a file on our server that tells our copy of the software what you did.

I will be more impressed with titles once you get them with players you obtained vs inherited....best trash talk I could come up with since you waxed me in the the series.
