1853 Season Thread

[Young Drachma]

So I'm going to run the 1st half right now, because I was flying yesterday and didn't get back in time to do it last night. We'll take today off because of the 4th and tomorrow we'll run the draft and allow any trades and then do 2nd half on Friday and post-season on Saturday night.

File is up.

Post-draft file is up. 2nd half tomorrow night!

Uggghhh rough for half for me. Last year's playoff hero Kichidi has been awful and is back down in AAA... The entirety of the pitching rotation is underperforming and my lineup is badly in need of another big bat that I missed out on this offseaason. I'm just hoping I can somehow squeak into the wildcard and then get really lucky in the playoffs to try to achieve my three-peat!

Another blah season for the Hornets.

Another day, another Winnemucca choke job.

File is up. Congrats to the playoff clubs. We'll sim the post-season tomorrow night and yes <s>Memphis</s> Chicago, you do get a chance at the 3-peat. But 3 other clubs want to make sure that doesn't happen.

First time Memphis has made the playoffs since 1848 (the last year of a seven year streak).

Those signings you made I think were instrumental. Nice work.

Post-season is complete and we have a champ. Intrigue will ensue. 9 game Sunset Series to boot!

I pointed out last year that Bobby Foster (legacy guy) had a five year extension showing at $0 per year. He did indeed stay with Chicago at $100,000. But know he shows with no contract years remaining. He still should have four years left. Can you edit his contract to show him with four more years at $100K per year?

Sure in tomorrow's file that I release for the start of FA1.

The waiting list has a few people on it and so, I think we're going to expand in a year. Not this upcoming year, but the year after. Just by two teams. Expansion draft plans and so forth, we'll come up with the gameplan for later but...just as a heads up. Also Foster's contract is fixed.
