Zero chance he'll accept that assignment
This is chicago. We can convince him.

Ok.
Haven't actually tested in game. Just got home, but it's on the server and it's not a transfer file!

Stuck on 16%.
Download percent means absolutely nothing. Mine was 'stuck' there as well, but the game also resets the percent all the time. Just let it run. Mine just finished after being on 16 for a couple minutes, then jumped to 22 and then done.
Fuck. Lost 4 in a row.
2 1/2 back again.
Hellickson very quickly already lost a game for Crow, with a 7.5 ERA

It finally finished! Although I guess Brenttech already touched on that.
Man WTF, I put Danny Hultzen in my rotation and Lloyd Keeps skipping him. He started Charlie Furbush instead. Weird.

I'm not sure how everyone else feels, but I think you would have to pay me to take on this group of misfits

My scout likes Varga even more now that he's on one of my minor league teams. He likes Mujica less though
My win percentage with/without Jay Bruce is kind of absurd. He's inserted back into the lineup, Reds win 8 games in a row. Swept the Pirates to go into a tie for first in the Central with them.
If anyone is looking for relief help, Kevin Gregg is available. He's actually got good ability numbers, my manager just refuses to pitch him and I can't control it.
Ratings are my scout, OSA is exactly the same except 65/65 for Stuff. He's making the league minimum this year so he's cheap as well.

The Royals have caught fire... but are still third in the division. AL CENTRAL IS A BEAST!!!
Detroit has crept up as well. Going to be a tough race.

So it looks like all the guys going to Houston in the TB/Houston trade ended up as free agents. I was just checking the free agent pool and noticed there were some decent players but then realized it was guys from the trade. (Made an offer to one before I realized it)

Except for the Twins.
We're lying dormant for 2 or 3 more seasons, but we plan to wake up at some point...hopefully. If most of our top-end prospects develop, we definitely will.oh, haha, that explains why those dudes were in the FA pool. I haven't followed the board, finally updated, two of my pitchers went out, and thought the god of baseball was offering me some gifts. I guess I'll forget about seeing them sign with me.

Yeah, it's weird, almost like the Astros have auto-GM on or something. It was all in the same day, same entry. "Matt Moore was traded to Houston for xxxxx....released by Houston"

Not sure if this is relevant to that or whatever but the guys I got in the deals yesterday weren't actually on any of my rosters after the trade. I just manually searched the players names and they were still on my team but I had to assign them to the active roster manually. I guess guys are in just some of limbo until you decide where to assign them to after a trade?
Yes, they are designated for assignment for 15 days following a trade. If you go to your roster screen, you can make one of the boxes your DFA box and they will all be listed there.
So what is super bizarre is that it worked properly for one team but not the other....Houston, check team control settings.
Can someone who uses a podcast service (iTunes, Pocket Casts, whatever) put this RSS link in and see if it shows the first episode

That reminds me, tonight we record...unless the Dota patch goes up. We can talk all start game, recent transactions and milestones, and the playoff hunt.
Also, trading deadline is not that far off, so start using the trade block. I'll highlight guys on the block on the next episode to help spur some movement!

You off my offer?
Did you get my reply PM?
Shit. Whoops.
Turned out the guy I was thinking about was Phil Klein, and I've become rather attached. Another young reliever can be thrown in though.

In Pocket Casts it says it's not a valid podcast feed.

Is it okay if I prep some notes on minor league stuff?

It was all set up for me to control except lineups/depth charts and pitching staff, so I dunno.
