SUNSET SERIES GAME 8: Cuyahoga 11, Carolina 5
THE CUYAHOGA SPIDERS ARE SUNSET SERIES CHAMPIONS! The MVP of the playoffs for the Spiders has to be Dave Renninger. He went 5-0 with a 3.31 ERA this post-season, striking out 24 and walking 9. But dude was just clutch in every series for the Spiders this year. |

For a second, I thought we were going to a third straight Sunset Series to go to 9 games.

And Carolina not winning the title means the 6th straight year a different team has won the Sunset Series. That's tied for the longest string of different champs. That occurred from 1839-1844.
Will next year make seven? I'd say yeah. The difference between now and the old days, is a lot more teams so it's harder to make it back now than it used to be and even if you make the post-season, harder to win a title. Last edited by Young Drachma : 12-06-2012 at 11:01 PM. |

I'll get the file up here in a bit and will post when it's up. Clerical notes. We'll sim the draft and to the start of FA on Monday night, so be advised to offer any last minute extensions and get your ducks in a row.

Any stamina adjustments made will be minor. I will test them out in the winter league this year before foisting them on the rest of the league, but overall the change was a positive one after years of having hurlers winning 25-30 games, this year's Charlie Taylor winners neither of them even had 20 wins and forced all of us to make big adjustments and gave value to even middling guys who might not always get love in normal years.

Distant arbitration figures are based on the player's potential and the assumption that they live up to that potential. You don't have to offer what a guy asks for, for the record, it's just giving you an estimate and again, they're so far ahead that I don't think they'll be anything to worry about until the first guy starts to command a significant chunk of change via arbitration.

Mine aren't distant. They're for the upcoming and following seasons. Are we leaving arbitration in the game, or are we doing minsal for the entire rookie contract? I'm fine with it either way, as long as I know. Right now I have an underperforming Gomer asking for about $8million next season. I'd much rather pay him $250K. |

As of the start of this year, 7th and 8th year players are eligible for arbitration. Last year was the last year of the expanded cap for arbitration eligible players. Starting this year, we stay at $100 million and arbitration is turned on for those players in their 7th and 8th years. So you get them at min for six years if they're in the majors (This doesn't apply to squatting minor leaguers who get less time than that...I think it's 5 years before Minor league FA) then the last two years you gotta pay up or withdraw and they become FAs or...you offer them an extension to avoid arbitration all together.
