2060 Season Thread

[Orlando]

Delaying to the Travis/Lando/OU cycle. Bold strategy.

 

[Yankee151]

Kinda a damned if I do damned if I don't situation but oh well

 

[Travis7401]

Don't worry about me, I paid 20M a year to a pitcher with 45 stuff because I was drunk and nostalgic. I'm going the Lloyd route now, spend all this money before I crash and burn.

 

[Orlando]

Lost Castiglione @Yankee151 can't believe he signed so cheap. Hate when I miss multiple sims this time of year. Of course it had to be doh

 

[Yankee151]

I was in on him but forgot to offer again last sim.

 

[jdlikewhoa]

Don't mind me. I'm just buying up/drafting all the future GOAT catchers. You'll all be throwing some not even a corner outfielder behind the dish

 

[Yankee151]

You're half right except I've yet to see one catcher you've picked up that has better than a 45 Catcher Ability

 

[Orlando]

I was in on him but forgot to offer again last sim.

Is he one of the few HG players still around?

 

[Yankee151]

What do you mean by HG?

 

[jdlikewhoa]

New Wizard Award 6 WAR Catcher

 

[Orlando]

Can't tell if you are trolling me, but Hanger Games.

 

[Yankee151]

Dang, that guys slightly better than my 4 WAR New Wizard catcher

 

[Yankee151]

Oh okay, I'm not sure who the last HG guy was. Like Travis, I erased all memory of the HG

 

[bruin228]

Holy shit, I forgot about the Hunger Games. Wasn't Tony supposed to run it?

 

[Orlando]

That's what I'm saying. I used that dude for 9 seasons. Yankee deserves my first.

 

[Yankee151]

That can be arranged

 

[Orlando]

He had some great seasons. Best LOOGY in the league for a few of them with 13K/9 rates.

If I don't use it to get the Swede, you can have it.

 

[Yankee151]

Piggybacking off of that, do you know what slot is for 1-1? That's what Braves is asking for so I set 7M aside in my draft budget, I figure that's close but wanted enough wiggle room just in case. He is at easy signability so maybe it's not too big a deal.

 

[Orlando]

It changes, but $4-5m. Signability doesn't equal a low demand though.

 

[Yankee151]

Yea I figured, but at least Easy gives me a couple of chances.

 

[Wolfman21]

And with 6 mil ive already picked up 2 players better than anything you could find in the draft...yay.

 

[Mr. Radpants]

Holy shit, I forgot about the Hunger Games. Wasn't Tony supposed to run it?

He's too busy posting endlessly in every thread on the site

 

[Soonerfan09]

Yeah, I think Iglesias was about $4M.

Except no.

I quit after you people bitches about how I was running it and insufferable @Travis7401 @Travis7401SUCKSDICK kept trying to run it.

 

[Travis7401]

Stop it, the Hunger Games ended because of @doh and everyone knows it.

 

[Orlando]

I quit after you people bitches about how I was running it and insufferable @Travis7401 @Travis7401SUCKSDICK kept trying to run it.

You quit because you are a quitter. Look at the traded draft pick thread.

 

[Orlando]

I blame @doh for that too. He quit and took his ball home with both his contributions to the league. SAD

 

[TonyGin&Juice]

You quit because you are a quitter. Look at the traded draft pick thread.

What are you even talking about? People whined and then didn't bother to join in so we stopped doing it. Feel free to take it up if you feel so inclined.

 

[Travis7401]

@Wooly also bears some blame from my end. He's such a fucking trog that he wouldn't play Brick even though he had the fucking playoffs locked up a month early with OU's Juggernaut. Brick was still sitting there neglected in AAA as Wooly trying to perfectly optimize OU's lineup trying to eek out that extra COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE of winning 106 games instead of 104 games. Good thing he had that cushion between 1st and 2nd place before getting whooped in the first round of the playoffs, as is tradition for a 1 seed.

 

[Wolfman21]

Except no.

Except, yes.

 

[Soonerfan09]

If you're just talking about pitchers and just this last draft, then yeah, I agree. The 2060 draft was extremely weak on the mound, but I think the next two classes should make up for it.

Tom bout QUITTIN'!

Nah I quit after my master plan of getting an extra 4th round pick after slaving away at that thread for 10+ seasons was exposed.

False. I was brand new to the league. I knew very little about whatever you guys were doing. I just arranged lineups for OU. If the brand new guy, who didn't know the rules for the Hunger Games (and still doesn't), breaks your game, you had a pretty weak game that wasn't going to last anyway. Sounds to me like not enough people cared enough about whatever a Hunger Games is.

 

[Travis7401]

I tried to explain it to you, but you were incapable of understanding why someone would intentionally play a shitty player out of funniness. Douglass Tagg must blow your mind.

 

[Wolfman21]

Eduardo gonzalez has better potential than any draft pitcher in the last 5 years save maybe one

Right. You took your ball and went home over something ridiculous. You think the Os haven't seen ridiculous shit? Slaving away. Christ.

Where is it where I tried to quit again?

 

[Orlando]

Que?

/backpack queso cooker

 

[Wolfman21]

and the Villanueva/Jans starting pitching duo i was trying to build is quickly dying. Villanueva is losing potential on all of his pitches and Jans' stamina has dropped to 40 while both of their control's has dropped to 45. Awesome

At least Villanueva had an injury that explains his drop off, Jans came down with the Akke de Vos syndrome.

Whats even better is that jans is listed as "durable" lol. i guess only being able to throw 50 pitches before getting tired will keep you from getting injured

40 is fine mang
