Speaking about the draft - to get back on track...
Aurora's top two picks signed on the first try, as SP Brandon Waters and LF Ricardo Zamora signed for $1.12M and $2.1M, respectively. I do have to say that I hate how the game's transaction log states that they are 'demoted' when you move them off of DFA - it's not as if they're on the 40-man or any other roster...
The other three expecting bonuses have yet to respond - 2B Arthur Bonsall (easy), CF Joey Walker (hard) and SP Craig White (very hard - though he only wants $140K, we offered 240K...)...
Amongst the early results, 13th round pick, SP Volmer van de Loo went 4.2 innings in his debut, 2 H, and an unearned run, with 6 K and 3 BB... Also looking good as the Oceanic won both their games was 5th rounder from 2024, SP Jiro Oike, who also went 4.2, 4 H, 1 R, 3 K - and perhaps an early promotion to the train wreck that is SLRC...
Speaking of SLRC - we're so concerned about the poor play and attitude there that we are uncertain if we should start Zamora there - which would normally be our reference (in this instance), but fear the environment would be toxic to his growth...

That is actually something that Dan and I are currently working on. It seems that, whenever I run the sim, something prevents the email notification from being sent out.Borealis wrote:I can't speak for others, but I haven't been getting the emails when Reg runs the sim; not sure why, so I've been checking the forums at the time that I expect it's been run - and then I just keep checking. Also note the message here about the change in sim times...

I have set the forum to email me when Reg announces the file has been updated; I get an email that the thread has been updated. I have found this to be useful.Borealis wrote:I can't speak for others, but I haven't been getting the emails when Reg runs the sim; not sure why, so I've been checking the forums at the time that I expect it's been run - and then I just keep checking.

After losing 12 of 13, we juggled the lineup a little and got back on track with a 4-2 sim to pull back within a half game of Aurora. I think a Wild Card berth is a more realistic goal than the division, and even there, we're showing a lot of signs of slowing down. We have a big series with Palm Springs coming up as they've closed a lot of ground on us recently.

Seems the all-star voting is upon us and I might point out StatsLab isn't up to date on stats in the voting area (coughJorgecoughcoughNunezcoughshamelessplug).

Anyway, everything is up to date now!
We will give everyone until Tuesday evening to get their votes in for the all-star game (Wednesday will be needed to get the final list ready). The SL and IL All-Star teams will be announced in time for the upcoming sim on Wednesday evening, so go out and vote!

A Neat Week for Aurora after the Debacle in Duluth...
- 4-game sweep of Okinawa that included a pair of extra-inning games - back-to-back, the first of which went 13, with Theron Boswell ending with a walk-off 3-run HR... the second one went 10, Shisa closer Gary Stanley blowing the save as Boswell tied the game in the bottom of the 9th with a triple, ruining an awesome day by Bill Lewis, then Boswell doubled in the 10th to win the game!
-Oh, BTW, Boswell for the All-Star game - his .335 is tops for Aurora, 3rd best in the SL... and .519 for the past sim...
- Aurora followed the Okinawa sweep with a sweep of the Yumans... The 7-0 week upped Aurora's lead in the DH to 3.5 over the Bears, and the recent strong play has coincided with a slump by the Evil Evas, and as we have just passed under the 100-games left mark, the once big deficit for Aurora is just a game...
- Also Neat was the remaining 3 draftees signing - all on the first offer, including 'Extremely Hard' to sign SP Craig White, Aurora's 5th round pick. It's nice when those guys only ask for $180K - it makes going overboard with your offer so much easier - $240K and a ticket to Hawaii - ThankYouVeryMuch... Aurora also signed one of the draftees they had left, high on the remainder of their draft board - LF Louis Chantler, out of Outback State
What's on Tap:
The Codgers come to The Front Range for four leading into the All-Star Game...
EDIT:
Oh... I did forget the one Not So Neat of the week: Mike Britt strains his elbow making a defensive play and will miss 5 weeks - the third straight year he's missed significant time due to injury... Teddy Loetzsch and Harley Schneider will get the first licks at 3B...

Boy have we got a strange schedule. :) According to our team's home page (http://pebabaseball.com/reports/news/ht ... m_163.html) our next game is on Oct 13, then we apparently time travel back to July 8 for a two game series against San Juan.

Pretty happy with my haul in international Free Agency.
- SP Hyo-cheong Pak has #1-#2 SP potential and very good intangibles.
- 1B Clyde Stinton seemed like the best bat of the crop this year. He needs to learn a position, but there's plenty of time for that.
- C Barry Gillard could be a hidden bargain. OSA rates him as 9-9-7-6-7 offensive potential.

My team sucks and there is no cause for hope in the near future.
