2051 thread of random powwow

God I hope they have cash by 2053

iffy

[PhillyFan]

It'd be nice if my players would stop randomly losing their ratings.

[HollywoodLeo]

I just lost Schuck for the year so it looks like Hodges gets to play catcher again.

Killebrew is nearing a career high in homers already

[Trendy Bastard]

Spencer, Chapman, Day, and Pierce!!! All useful players available!

i think i took over this team in 2041. it hasnt come close to a winning season, up until last year. this is the first time ive actually acquired high priced talent. its actually worse than that though... i assume the angels havent had a real owner in a while, because, they havent had a winning season since 2030. and a plausible playoff season [finishing 2nd] since 2026. and if they didnt make it in 2026... i have no idea how the playoffs worked back then... the last plausible time before that was 2009 [they finished 2nd in 2022 and 2023 too... but both were considerably sub-.500, so im not counting them]. so... possibly im working on ending a 25 year playoff drought, and plausibly, im working on ending a 42 year playoff drought.

the old rules molina had, really didnt make it easy for a shitty team without an owner to come around, picking last in the draft and all. it just made for bad teams to remain bad.

[Trendy Bastard]

Yeah, I personally never liked the idea of the open teams picking last.

So now you need one more bat, named Killebrew.

Anybody want to bite on Arron Boley? I know his ratings are not desirable, but he's putting up some crazy numbers. Won't be asking for much, maybe like an interesting 4.0 or 3.5?

[Kingdom]

My team sucks ice.

[cjkalt]

Trade for a stop-gap #2 to get me in the playoffs and he gets hurt for the year in start #3... i can't catch a sim league break
