2049 Season Thread

[Wolfman21]

All started with schulz. Then medina, who's been pitching extremely well lately, gives up 3 straight hits and a walk. Oh well. My good pitchers have been terrible this series. My bad pitchers have been great

GAME 6 LIVE

Fuck I should have learned to change times

 

[Lloyd Carr]

What's the situation look like? Who's ahead in each series?

 

[Wolfman21]

I see ours is listed as 505...what time was the other one?

 

[osick87]

1:05

I will fast sim if there is a gap. Shouldn't be that much time after this game.

 

[Wolfman21]

Well, this is where my season ends. No way hud beats Kasib twice

 

[osick87]

You'll do fine friendo.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

Lol at Amsterdam v. BA.

cheat codes

 

[Wolfman21]

8 hits and 5 walks allowed through 5? Hell, let's leave him in

 

[Wolfman21]

BA reminds me alot of Kabul last year.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

lol

 

[osick87]

They remind me of BA of this year.

 

[Wolfman21]

They remind me of Kabul last year because they have injuries to vital players but are playing their best ball without them and getting big time contributions from players that you wouldn't expect it from while riding very good pitching.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

They remind me of Kabul because they are kicking Kabul's ass.

It has been a hella long day

[bruin228]

Well, go Moscow

Hey @OU11

Got a contract question

If I've got a guy who is on 490k for the 2050 season and then entering arbitration in the 2051 season, can I sign him to an extension now at his projected arb rate? (lets say it hypothetically $1.5 Million On that extension, as long as I structure the arb years as at least the listed arb amount that's good, right? What about the 2050 season when he was only supposed to be making 490k? Can I, for instance, offer him $1Million in 2050 and then $1.5Million in 2051 and after?

 

[OU11]

Im good to go now

Whatever the rule thread states. I'm pretty sure i opened the floor to changing the requirements for the 490k years but nobody wanted to talk. Right now i think every year of the extension has to be over estimate and no more than 5 years

 

[doh]

I'm a fan of AAV being above the estimate but I believe every year has to be above the estimate per my Colon fiasco.

Too many numbers, say no, OU

 

[Travis7401]

The rule thread didn't state the part about the 490k years, which is why I was wonderin.

 

[Wendell Gee]

Just sim @OU11, if I can't beat ur cheat codes I don't deserve to be in the WS.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Blame doh's whining for these overcomplicated extension rules.

 

[Lloyd Carr]

The contract rules are over my head. I don't know what I'm doing, so I'm just gonna go with what I want until I get caught cheating.

 

[doh]

Blame Rad offering extensions to guys 11 days into their careers.

I also saw a highly illegal contract signed this year didn't say anything about it. Don't want to Rad it.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Blame Rad for utilizing a tactic that small market MLB teams use. I didn't invent the wheel, doh.

 

[OU11]

It doesnt differentiate, no.

 

[Travis7401]

Cool, I'll just take advantage of his last $490k year then and see how he plays since there isn't too much incentive if I have to hit his arb estimate this season.

I just hit Meet Demand and then I can blame the CPU if shit hits the fan

I just saw one this sim; you're the contract police, police it.

 

[OU11]

That's why i did it originally. The earlier you sign them the lower the price. So paying the minimum year is a downside to balance the upside of keeping his next 4 possibly lower

 

[Mr. Radpants]

The contracts that I did aren't even that great; if Pendragon had blown out his shoulder instead of Vasquez I'd be out 30+ million. I might save like 10-15 million if Pendo hits potential.

In hindsight it shouldn't even be a rule.

Definitely should be, pitchers you could sell me on but not batters. I could have signed haamid so cheap for 8 years but i didnt because it was outlawed

 

[Travis7401]

Imagine if a player you'd signed to a 10 year $30M contract from ages 20-30 then stabbed hisself with scissors and tore all his tendons in his throwing arm.
