Wow starting to think this is going to be a little to fast for me......

Nah...You just have to get into the rthym.

monday pm- Sim regular season (offer lowball extensions) (5min)
tues pm- Sim playoffs (offer last chance extensions) (5min)
Wednesday-offday (best time for trade talks as the cash comes off you payroll before FA bidding starts)
Thursday am- Day 1 FA's. Chase the big fish (10 min)
Friday am- Day 2 FA to fill in gaps AND ammy draft list (30 min)
Saturday-sunday- Desperation FA signings...(dont forget to email Alan for roster moves if you do place bids), Set Lineups and wait paitently for monday night. (30 min)

If you totally mess up your team...dont worry. A sweet draft pick is coming your way, and it only takes 4 weeks of real time to go from zero to hero!

[ekcut]

Decent draft this year...Not much top end talent, but pretty deep. I got 68 names on my list,
Big year for pitching too...lotsa #2 quality southpaws.

And my new favorite name. Quentin Sowerbutts!!

It'll take about a week or two to get yourself in the rythym but you'll do just fine! The great thing is that you always have a chance to turn things around in a quick timeframe! It makes the dreadful rebuilding that less of a task....

Don't give up on us yet! It takes a while to get the hang of, but if you mess up any given week, you have a chance to scrap it all and do it better just one week later!

No, the RL uses the DH, the CL does not even for spring training.

Wow I didn't expect THAT result in the draft at ALLLLLLLLLL!
I think I should have done something different. LIke not lose all my draft picks WAHHHHHHHHHHH!

OH man, Ann Arbor, what were you thinking? YOu really needed to change that order.

I've never been over the cap before what do I have to do? Simply release a player with salary until I'm under?

Pretty much, or trade them to someone who has salary space left.

You could be over as well because of Spring Training. Every minor league player you bring up ads $100,000 to your yearly salary, when you put them back in the minors it will go back down, so I'd make sure after you get down to a 25 man roster that you are still over before you start cutting or trading people if you don't want to.

Yeah I noticed that and I think did get under. Then for the icing on the cake and dropped the 7 million dollar failure, Chris Malone.
