My team has not really improved at all in KP.

That is a problem.  I have talent to trade but no one seems interested in dealing.

I improved, but only a little.

Nah, you improved more than a little.

Hopefully the bullpen addition will have a nice chain reaction, and Zavada will certainly be a boost to my lineup.  Hopefully it's enough to get me back into the WC race.

11-2 week in auction.  Needed that.

I really need to get back into the prospect hunt next season in $. I'm going to need hitters in the next few seasons.

9 of us have 20M in prospect payroll this season

Put a couple of good young IF prospects up in $ world chat that might be available for a SP.

Is there any world in which you aren't looking for solid starting pitching?

HR, $ or KP

I need to make deals in all of them.

we need to TC some.

TM:  Those guys are both pretty much done progressing.  I have people to trade but not for those guys given the fact that they are not that great and not going to get much better.

wow-  I am at $18.  I think this will be the lowest payroll in L'ville I've ever had.  Finally ridded myself of overpriced worthless players and it only took me 17 seasons to figure out that the higher the payroll the better the team...stupid Cubs model.

I wonder if I'm under developing my players by having them play a full season in rookie and then a full season in Low A.  Guys are getting to AA with 3 Pro Years under their belts.

I am not sure it matters exactly on the level...  I play them in whichever one has the better coach, then the next season is HiA or AA depending on the coach, then AA or AAA depending on coach.  By the time season 4 comes around, they can usually come up after 20 if they are going to regular ABs.

If you're going to respond as though I was overrating the guys specifically toward you, at least do it in a TC in the future if you don't mind.
