Looking for someone to check each team to see who has NOT claimed 10-Year Anniversary camps and post a team list here.
Once finished, claim 10 points for yourself.
Open to anyone, except MIN/ATL.

I am going to post a list of suggested talent increases to use the points, full disclosure, the Commish bribed me to do this. Legal Disclaimer: There is inherent bias in these suggestions. They are only suggestions. HOFFBL and the Houston Astros hold no liability if these talent suggestions are utilized and you fail to win a World Series nor for any future talent decreases that may occur. Each of you should also receive a PM with the suggested uses. I am somewhat responsible for the math in the suggestions but not in a Civil Court kind of way.

Jays are good and KC just has to get their points under 200. As for the others, here are the suggestions. These may be what Chris uses to reward the anniversary gift for those that didn't do it themselves, I don't know but it seems like that would be why I am being given points.
TB LF Joe Mather Hits to Good 1B Ethier Walks to Good and Clutch to good 2B Aaron Hill Speed from C to B SS Cantu SS Range to B, loyalty bump to some, leadership to some, clutch up one tick
Yankees 1B Teixeira-Speed to B from E 3B Bautista- Loyalty up 1 tick to Some, Consistancy to Good, Clutch up 1 tick AAA OF Hart Hits to Good, Walks to Good, Consistency to Good, Clutch up 1 tick
White Sox I have played with Mark long enough that I think I can channel him for these suggestions.
C Tyler Green Catcher Arm D to B SS Guzman HR to good Speed to B 1B Rosario Loyalty to Some, Clutch up a tick SP McGowan Loyalty to some SP Webb Loyalty to some 1B Morales Walks to Good
Twins (I think this one is what this project was all about) C Martin Arm to B SP Saunders HR to Good 1B Morneau Loyalty to Some Leadership to some, clutch up 2 ticks RF Choo Speed to C SP Leake Hits to Good
Angels SP Gorzelanny Consistancy to Normal (2 ticks) 1B Duncan Consistancy to Normal (2 ticks) SP Pelfrey Duration from C to B C Richardson HR to Good Walks to Good, arm from C to B SS Solarte Range at SS to B
Nationals At -14 points. Take the 300 points and spend 86 Upgrade 2B Balbuena HR and Hits to good and have some wiggle room for the season
Reds SP James Shields Duration from D to B, Walks to Good SP Samardzija Duration from C to B 2B Altuve Conistency up 1 tick, Clutch up 2 ticks, Leadership up 1, and walks to good
Cardinals
I would dump them all into Molina HR to Good, Walks to Average, Consistancy to great (2 ticks), Clutch to great (2 ticks), and give him a 3B range boost to C
Dodgers This was a little tricky 2B Weeks clutch up 2 ticks, 2B Range to B Kershaw: Clutch up 2 ticks Chavez: Speed to B CF Maier Hits to Good
Padres SP Kluber Loyalty to Average (1 tick), leadership up 1, clutch up 1 C Kottaras Arm to B, HR to Good, Loyalty to Some CF McCutchen Speed to B, Strikeouts to Good
That should do it. I will send a link and a reminder to everyone involved.

Need one last update. And update to the suggested edits by removing loyalty - can't boost those.

Update:...
Still need to use their rewards, down to a few hours before Opening Day...The AL has taken a 1 team lead. Anything that I suggested that includes loyalty, use them to boost clutch or leadership with clutch being the priority.
Yankees Angels
Padres Nationals Cincy

Give the Reds The boosts that Houston suggested. New GM is having difficulty getting the file to work with the game. Is getting “Invalid Player File” after trying to load it. He’s going to reload and try again

He’s going to reload and try again With over 300 points I would suggest the Red paying the 50 points to get to good on both altuve and shields. Then using the rewards to Bump Altuve HRs to Brilliant And Shields Walks to Brilliant (after the spending to good) Red should have another 100 off-season points on the way. Personally think not using the Brilliant offer is egregious decision every time. I can look at the others if you’d like but I don’t want to waste my time if Chris is happy with the way Houston spent them. I don’t mean to talk down on his effort, I just think he really missed the mark with Brilliants. They are uber valuable and almost never get offered.

Reds: With over 300 points I would suggest the Red paying the 50 points to get to good on both altuve and shields.
Then using the rewards to Bump Altuve HRs to Brilliant And Shields Walks to Brilliant
Padres: Mccutchen and Kluber -Brilliant HRs
Angels: SP wade and Pelfry - Brilliant hits
Yankees: Giancarlo Stanton. Pay to get to Good Hits Stanton again Hit to Brilliant and Walks to Brilliant.
Washington: Gio Gonzalez: Walks to Brilliant Elvis Andrus Hits to Brilliant or SP Anthony Reyes hits to Brilliant. (Toughest one for me)
Again I don’t mean to talk down on the work Houston put in, just a different opinion on spending.

No worries. I thought about looking at both options but at the end of the day decided i wasn't going to be the one to spend points for teams. If other teams want to give input I am not offended at all.

Thanks Josh for the good attitude, some people get butt hurt over constructive criticism. But yea, you did the dirty work for me, allowing others to chime in to improve. This is what collaboration is all about.
And good comments jmich
