Kimbrel.... hadn't seen him. 16 Bb in 20-2/3... translates to a 6.34 bb/9... k/9 is 17.39 ! .125 OAV...

They are here!!!!!

Yeah, Bautista at 3B is interesting.  A lot of good defenders it appears.

Brandon Inge with a higher salary than Alex Rodriguez at 3B - now that's something you don't see everyday.

Going to try Oswalt's 1/2 season with the Phillies in the random birthday theme right off the bat!

I think the one of most interesting things that was released was Target Field. 0, +1, +1, -4, -4 (.96). Looks great at supressing homers, but won't nearly be the offensive black hole that the Astrodome is.

I filled all draft slots, 31 players of the 2010 Seattle Mariners, and only with their Mariners stats...total salary, just above $65 million.And Ichiro, Felix and Franklin Gutirrez (A+/A+) make up about $20 mill of that. That is bad, bad, bad.  It is a little better if the roster can be twisted. 25 guys for 98.7 mill.

Looks like I just found a new favorite home field.

Also looks like the 3B park factor for Petco has been recalibrated, which is overdue. 

AT&T is +2 triples, wasnt it +3 before?

How is it possible that Danny Haren costs more than Roy Halladay?

This has already been brought up in this thread.  Haren hit .364 over 50+ PA, which is factored into his salary.  That's why he's more expensive than some pitchers who had better numbers.

Yep, before that change, good hitting pitchers (even with mediocre stats, aka Mike Hampton) were god-like in the sim (in lower cap leagues 80M and below). 

The memories of that sweet swing of Juniors. He is now a 200k roster filler. Sad.
