When you promote a minor league player up a level in the middle of the season, sometimes he gets a promotion boost immediately and sometimes he doesn't.  Do you know what factors if he gets a immediate boost or not?

In a division where everyone is just below .500.  My plan is to be competitive in 3 seasons.  Do I go ahead and promote Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Cristobal Johnson to the majors so I can win the division this year?

The "boosts" are just markers.   Generally, it revolves around when his last development marker was produced.   IOW, if he got one yesterday, he's not getting one today when you promote him.

I would but I never plan to be competitive in 3 seasons.   I plan to be competitive every season so I don't hold a lot of players back.

Assuming an average HOF class, would you throw a non-traditional vote at   Pete Case?

I'd consider him.  I'm sure you think his SB and D warrant it but his D isn't as special as you think, IMO.   

Using my PPPS(positive plays per season) formula, he's no  Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Jamey Cambridge at 2nd.  He's between JC and Hardball Dynasty – Fantasy Baseball Sim Games - Player Profile: Robin Petersen who I think should be the low end of fielding at 2B.

So really if comes down to how much you think his 995/100 SB/CS is worth.

You're not a fan of considering "a lot", are you?

What if he hit homer? A lot of homer?

I'm not voting the fattest player into the HOF because he's the fattest.   I have to consider the value of what he did on the field.   What I see in Case is a slightly above average 2B who didn't hit much but stole a lot of bases.

WHAT IF HE HIT HOMER?!?! CHEETAH UNK!!!!
11/19/2013 10:58 AM
Jamey ******* Cambridge hit 400 of 'em.   He can't get double digit votes.   400 homers = 1600 total bases.    995-100=895 total bases.   Phhttttt.

If they were to make a movie of your life story, what is the likelihood that it would be promoted as "The Feel Good Movie of the Year"?

Living in a box under a bridge in Vegas.

That would be negative percentage.

I'm seeing a much more vibrant in the league chat Mr Nauseous in Hamilton. More open to post his trade needs. More open to discuss past seasons, and predictions for the upcoming season. He's also been there a lot longer than his MG stay.

I'm taking a wild stab at it, and guessing it's because he rolls over that league season after season. Am I on the right track?
11/19/2013 1:20 PM
I think that's a fair assessment.
11/19/2013 1:22 PM
Do you by chance have an alias called Bad_Luck?
