This Week in BaseHit | How to Win a World Series

[@ambnibdai]

It's good to know that, with a little gumption, a lot of effort, and more money to spend on players than anyone else, you can still make it to a WS!

Dodgers in 6 and (for Zubaz) Leeeeeroy Jennnnkins!

[@ambnibdai]

To get a double play, you have to allow base-runners, that's probably why that matters so little.

I had a team with max stadium for years and years that always finished in last place. The first season after I adjusted it to average, we won the WS.

Long time ago, in Beta, I got a clear demonstration of the value of range. At exactly midseason, I traded for an aging, but 89RA SS . He replaced my 59? RA SS. No other change. The Team ERA [total season] was 0.50 lower than when the trade was made. :0

the game is boken .... salaries are rising at ridcolous rates ... the hard cap is killing this great game. My league is in kaos.

[@basehitgame]

@@sjen500 you do not have to choose a hard cap, plenty of soft cap leagues if that is what you prefer? What league are you referencing that is in chaos?

@@sjen500 Has the league discussed raising the salary cap if everybody is agreeing with your feelings about it?

[@sjen500]

@@basehitgame They had a vote months ago that was voted down. Now it seems like most are infavor of raising the cap. It appears one of your updates has changed the salary stucture for players that is making them grow greater than ever before . i have three players over of near 10,000,000 a year, that never happened in my 7 years playing this game. The salary cap needs to grow in the same propotion as players salaries to make this work. 65 million does not let you field a team of players without having 5 to 7 scubs on everones roster, secondly you cant develp players because you cant afford to have them in your minors making over a million dollars a year for 4 years till they can play. Its broken.

[@basehitgame]

@ sounds like the league is doing the right thing for you all. Salaries did not change for players in over two years but the ways that people could bid on them did, and choosing how your league prefers to adapt to it is exactly the way do it.
