ok, just through out every rating ever and just make players the way you feel they should be made. I guess is the way forward inflate people cause inflation! He says with 15 guys better than the first overall pick on his mlb roster Another factor is with reversals youth has tooo much value. I cant get offers on billingsley Martin and Amdrus. League is broken. Inflating rookies wont fix it. |

A lot of teams won't make the leap to add vets to compete or expect them for free if they do.

Agree here vets have no value I've always offered 2 yrs worth of 1sts for vets, as that is typically all I have to offer, and no one wants late 1sts. Players on my team that I've got with a late first or later. Valverde Hanarahan D Jennings Lane Adams A Sanchez J Jones A Reyes A Libatore |

The gaps too far to close oh and payroll gaps Sure I can trade for a maxed Andrus. Win 5 more games maybe and take up 1/3 of what my broke ass team makes |

Look at NY. 1 year of winning and promotiona and smart tocket peices and they increased revenue by 25? |

My point is despite being incredible and having amazing on field play and a decent age. The 20 mil pick up for a young team / non big market team is hard. So that takes out some teams, we got open teams, and we got like 5 teams with no specs.
Send offers out! Ill take one 😀

Ok for someone like William Contreras who has improved his BA every season shouldn’t he at least start with Good hits?

I know it’s early in the season but he has gone from .250s, .270s, .280s, and now .300 almost halfway through the season.
