He's one of your few power hitters. Knew you would do what you could to re-sign him :) Hard to replace 35 HRs and 100RBIs!

Yup... him and Carlisle... Boswell was a bit of a bust there, and Flores didn’t get a full chance to contribute. We are hoping ‘Fido’ and ‘Fudd’ will fill some of that void in the coming seasons...

I hear you! Trying to figure out what to do with Raines right now! We're in talks... but he's not interested in a cheap contract like last season.

We had a good first sim and went 1-1 with Aurora. We have 3 games at home and we hope to win a few here and not let them steal any games.

I exported

We've barely got enough guys to field a full squad. OOTP sure has made it tough in this new version. Feels like the game has gotten away from the core of baseball and now revolves too much around the extraneous stuff. I guess in the next version we'll have to start hiring equipment guys and budgeting for washing machine so we can keep the jocks clean.

Boswell is very up and down from year to year. I see 2026 was one of his "suck years" (as I referred to them back in his Palm Springs days)....but he will probably bounce back to do very well in 2027.

Or maybe he is fat and happy now with all those Borealis Bucks in his wallet and won't amount to anything ever again }:-)

Maybe 2027 will be a good year and the greedy bastard will opt out of his contract...

As I waited for you, Mark!

History in Game 3 - be sure to check it out, then a awful flop in game 4 leaves Duluth with the Hammer heading back to the Front Range - in large part due to Aurora losing both games started by Provost, but also Duluth’s uncanny ability to beat up our pitching...

All set for game 6 & 7... ;-D

Yeah, I am lucky to have Rainmaker for Game 7 if needed. Yeah, the no-hitter was great but surprised Provost is having such a bad series. We are hitting well just not that game three lol.

exported also.


A question once everyone export do you run the sim or do we wait until the certain day of the week?

In past seasons we’ve sped through the post season as the active teams have exported, but I’m not sure what Morris’ plan is... the nice thing about it is we get to spring training just a bit faster and keeps folks engaged more...
