Yeah that's what I meant. They have to be on the 25 man roster or the disabled list at the end of August 31st to be eligible right?

Yes sir.

Yes sir.

Great! That means Corbin and Bradley will be eligible for the playoffs... In 2017 *cries*

 

[ph33nix]

This next update is huge. I'm already 4 games back and at this rate I am in danger of losing my wildcard spot to BOB

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Two games. TWO GAMES BACK OAKLAND.

 

[Rommel]

Time for my player development crack report

 

[CosmicQueso]

Two games. TWO GAMES BACK OAKLAND.

Can't stop laughing. Every single time I see that picture.

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Can't stop laughing. Every single time I see that picture.

Look at that steely concentration. Thats the look of a great manager I tell you.

 

[Purple Cheeto]

If I make the playoffs with the second worst offense in the AL I deserve an award.

The Braves are one of the worst scoring teams in the NL. But our pitching is phenomenal!

 

[acheron_xl]

Can't stop laughing. Every single time I see that picture.

Is that Leo Laporte?

 

[Rommel]

Can't stop laughing. Every single time I see that picture.

It's like he's thinking about Pie at that moment in time.

Double Sim day?

 

[CrimsonCommie]

We advancing today?

 

[brentech]

Haven't heard back from eznark so I'll sim shortly. Internet has been up and down so I'll let you know when the file is up.

 

[brentech]

Currently uploading. Be up in a couple minutes.

Game kept giving an error when using the simulator, so I had to manually sim each day which doesn't generate a recap email. Hopefully the errors are taken care of now and will work normal in the future though.

 

[ph33nix]

Holy FUCK, my team's defense is literally costing me games!!!

LOL, David Ortiz hit for the cycle?!

 

[CrimsonCommie]

My reputation as GM has increased to Good! Shelby Miller better win the Cy Young since Kershaw and Jose are hurt.

But Freddie is listed as DTD for 2 weeks ):

 

[Rommel]

WTF... No email notification or anything... something is weird as hell...if this would have happened in the normal course of game events there would be mail about this. Something is seriously wrong here for a 3 month injury to go like this.

 

[eznark]

Is that your SP prospect? There was a notification a couple sims back that it went sideways.

Maybe your owner had to fire all of your medical staff?

Weird, I never got that notification.

Ugh... Aiken 2.0

 

[eznark]

For low tier guys you have to look in the all injuries section. I always check that every sim.

 

[acheron_xl]

Jesus at my latest Red Sox series. Went 0-3 and was outscored 43-7.

 

[Sanjuro]

Yeah. Even I was shocked how deep you got dicked.

Dude

your team let David Ortiz hit for cycle lol

 

[acheron_xl]

Yeah. Even I was shocked how deep you got dicked.

It's going to be the story of my team for the foreseeable future. Lots of hitting talent. Rotation full of scrubs.

Sent about half a dozen people back to the minors for more seasoning. Entirely too many guys hitting under .200.

 

[Rommel]

I'm down to a rotation of scrubs myself now too. 4/5 of my starting rotation didn't start the year in it

What time are we simming today?

 

[brentech]

When it happens.

 

[eznark]

done

 

[ph33nix]

wow

Marlins fucking trash

 

[Rommel]

Yah my team is just treading water right now. Fortunately the warm bodies I've been throwing into the rotation have been decent. De La Rosa still confounds me but I'll take it.

 

[acheron_xl]

My team is doing a piss-poor job going for an early draft pick, going 5-1 this sim. I'm not even in last in the division anymore!

Correa is developing just beautifully too. Gonna be a 6 win player this season.

For real?

FUCK

FUCK

FUCK

Fuck the inability for me to have any decent pitching, and fuck the stupid contracts I got saddled with.

And Fielder got injured. Wonderful sim for me.

 

[CosmicQueso]

Hey Angels, quit tailgating me yo.

GET OFF MY ASS

 

[Purple Cheeto]

Lost a game in the WC standings, gained a game in the division standings.

Time to see if my hail mary of signing the corpses of Ryan Howard and Michael Bourn to save my offense in September works out!

 

[Rommel]

Really need to pull out the division since I don't have an ace anymore

 

[DUFFMCWALIN]

Hey Angels, quit tailgating me yo.

GET OFF MY ASS

1 game back. Stalkin ya like predator.

 

[synchronicity]

Just got back from my excursion. I'll try to catch up on this thread and my team asap. Hopefully I won't have another absence of this duration anytime soon.

Any major events or news to be aware of regarding the league or OOTP itself over the past 8 or 9 days?

We are in September so rosters have expanded. Most minor league systems are done or in the playoffs.

 

[synchronicity]

Ok, thanks cheeto. I think I'm close to getting myself back up to speed.

 

[TheCrow]

Aw yeah! My team still has a shot at taking the central. I'm coming for you Brent!

 

[Rommel]

 

[brentech]

I feel like it's happening again. Lead all season. Drop the last quarter.

 

[eznark]

Did the sim work?

 

[brentech]

No. Export reader doesn't show an update or an attempt to.

 

[eznark]

Tried doing it from the office and the game hung. I'll do it again right now.

 

[TheCrow]

I feel like it's happening again. Lead all season. Drop the last quarter.

And the Tigers are starting to make a run for it. History might just repeat itself.

 

[acheron_xl]

One of my relievers is leaving at the end of the season to join the Navy.

This game.

And wow is the AL Central getting tight.

edit: And now Correa is officially an OSA top-20 player. Youngest one on the list! I didn't think he'd develop power so early. Must be Bichette's tutelage.

 

[CosmicQueso]

What an awful fucktot shitshow of a week.

 

[eznark]

Segura has exploded since move to CF. What a brilliant GM.

 

[CrimsonCommie]

My rookie CF that just got hot is now hurt for 4 months. Fuck this game! Finally found a good OF to replace all the other injured ones and now he's out for the season.

Broke his ankle on a defensive play, god damn!

 

[Rommel]

Oh look another injury... and 2 one run losses to SD... argh...
