Now playing OOTP25. I have a question. On the finances page, it shows maximum contract length. My is currently locked at 15 years. How can I change that? I am playing historical and starting in 1967. During that year, Nolan Ryan, for an example, is a rookie. My strategy is to lock him up long term BEFORE free agency hits in 1976 to a 20 year contract starting at his current salary and incrementally increasing him until he hits $1,000,000 per season then plateauing him. Great contract in 1986 and beyond. But I am limited to 15 years, meaning I either pay Ryan a ton or lose him.

My OOTP experience is limited but I find that later into a sim you start to get more of those insane talent jumps. I have a VERY late Rangers sim (2059) that had a player go from a 40/55 to an 80/80 with a 170 WRC+ in the majors in a year and another go from an A-baller with a negative WPA to a 200 WRC+ major leaguer in two years. Though nothing will ever top me trading Simeon Woods-Richardson as a like 40/45 pitching prospect who had like a 115 ERA+ in AA only to see him immediately skip AAA, win the Cy Young, and then win the next THREE Cy-Youngs, all unanimously.

Congrats on the new place. You still in the area?

Loved this. Informative and funny. Thanks for making it.

Not sad to see Toronto lose.

It would’ve been really cool to see this team come together with all of that money and the current roster, but alas, dang computers. Looking forward to whatever comes next!

Tough way to end the series. Really would’ve loved to see the recap vids you always do to see how players panned out. Oh well, that’s computers for ya

Damnit man

These comments are awesome and I've learned a lot of new things as a beginner. Originally I just came here to ask a question but after reading all these comments I'm excited to watch the entire video!

I'm gonna have a nightmare about that scary ending

F

Why is so damned impossible to find the manual for 2025? This game is turning out to be full of pitfalls. If it's not one thing it's a damn other. Forget them responding to your emails. They certainly won't do that. I'm 3 weeks in waiting. Can't even find an up to date manual. I suggest Zen Gm.

Gunner Henderson lol

The end of the season had 2021 vibes when the Jays entered the last day tied with the Ms and one back of both the Yankees and Sox for 2 spots.

2026 Red Sox junior Marino is the #1 overall prospect at 50/55 con 70/80 power 85/95 eye. The next Aaron judge. Too bad Marcelo became a bust and is basically Gabriel arias bad hitting and good defense. All my coaches are excellent at least in development And mechanics. Roman Anthony was also the #1 prospect the year prior. I have the best farm system annually but Marcelo decided to bust. I’m on challenge mode and trying to build a home grown Sox dynasty. When I traded for Marino he looked like a bench bat in the future at best but now it’s Aaron judge if he couldn’t catch a ball because his fielding is crap.

Im using version 25. I cant find the scouting options for the life of me. The company won't email me back either.

The AI has definitely been wonky all year for this game in terms of DFAs and waiving players… feels less polished than previous games which I find strange. Been taking some fun out of my playthroughs and it’s somewhat frustrating

Tough loss, but happy it was to my Phils I guess. Sucks to see that your owner plans on cutting even more budget in the future

The giant billboard is the jumbotron lol. The hotel rooms surround it.

After Hagen Smith pitches a complete-game shutout with 13 Ks allowing 2 hits in game 1, Phillies 1B Cuvet said after the game that Smith was "very hittable" and "wasn't anything special" today, and doesn't see what all the fuss is about. (That's a Taylor Ward reference, for anyone who didn't see the story over the weekend)

At 10:30 ...isn't that the jumbotron?

why isn’t the divisional series best of 5?

Great video! I am new to OOTP and felt a bit overwhelmed with what was expected of me for the off season.

hopefully you’ll see this. what are your trade settings on? you seem to get relatively realistic trades going thru

When is the best time to hire your major league managers and minor league staffs

I would have checked manager and hitting coach relationships with Soto He should definitely hit better than 130 WRC+

Boston 9-1 in their last 10 games. I also enjoyed this format and certainly understand why you don't do it all the time. But i love the day to day aspects of the game. It's what makes the game great, in my opinion.

Junior Marino has been a stud for me in three consecutive saves

Love this episode format. I understand why you may not do it all the time, but in playoff races and maybe early season it's fun to see things play out real time sometimes.

David Rivera is "from" my home town. The school they have him attending is an all-girls Catholic school. I thought that was pretty funny.
