PD (player development) is why Marcum is so good what’s the value of a pitcher star vs a hitter star here Elite pitcher >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> any hitter but you need at least 2 if not 3 currently to stand a chance. you have 3 Elite and 2 really good. |

Is one position more valuable no not really. you def want better D in the middle like iirl, but sometimes you trade their ability at the plate. |

Watch your financials. If you are going to have extra money you can trade it for points to other teams. Which can be used to improve players
Also always track from recent trades what the going rate for cash for points is

I’d say there’s more value to positional scarcity tho Like having an elite catcher, 2B, or SS is pretty valuable since the quality isn’t as much as other spots imo |

And a mvp Haha... true. Broke team has young star, finally starts hitting, wants huge salary, doesn't hit, gets traded, does amazing things. Same old A's story.
Still enjoy you bastards for some reason. |

One thing I like to do is to try to re-sign my guys earlier than expected.
I would prefer not to have to try to sign them during their FA year unless they have minimum loyalty.

Don’t want to lose his interest all together |
