    And I think I can live with that. When I get home I will play around with it and see what I can come up with. Force trades will be on, but am not looking to cheat the computer either.
    just checked the Braves website and Drury's their 12th highest-rated prospect....3 C's for Drury

      Thanks on your input.

      Will get the ball rolling tonight and will try to keep this forum updated on my progress on trying to rebuild the Astros.

      Also, what's your thoughts on maybe signing Oswalt? I also noticed you went and picked up vladdy. I might look into that move as the season progresses.

        if u dont care for realism and Oswalt is asking for a reasonable contract then it'd be a great signing....yep i picked up Vladdy in my previous franchises and he was a god-send....for my current franchise im looking to sign Matsui cause the Astros dont have many lefty hitters with pop..plus he can hit lefties as well

          I looked into it last night but never got the franchise rolling. I believe he was asking for 4 years at 7.8 mil a year. He wouldn't sign anything under 2 years and at 7.9 a year. But I later aborted the franchise and will start over tonight.

          Also I noticed y'all kept saying that lowrie was on the DL and Parades (spell check) was in triple A. Or maybe it was Altuve (don't fill like going back) but I have OSFM opening day rosters. And Lowrie wasn't on the DL and both Parades and Altuve was on the 25 man. But I also simmed spring training, so I'm not sure

            his stance wouldn't change as far as what he's askin for....i'd give the 5 starters through the rotation then if somebody struggles, then i'd sign Oswalt just so u can figure out who u like and who u don't...if you're using a opening day franchise file that included injuries, then Lowrie and Escalona would automatically be on the DL to start out the year...it definitely wasnt Altuve that started out in AAA so it was more likely Paredes

              Imma double check that roster, but I know that it's the OSFM opening day roster.

              I'll give my starting 5 a shot before looking into Oswalt. Also I'm also thinking about giving the 5th spot to your friend (Harrell lol) in the rotation and see how he pans out. I might also start him off in the bullpen.

                  I don't think anybody has asked this yet so I will.

                      Gotcha

                      Figured out how imma start the season. Not sure if y'all will like this approach but I'm going with it on opening day. I'm setting up my 40 man and 25 man lineup exactly how I found it on espn's houston Astros rosters and go from there. Since i will be simmong spring training i Will work trades, roster moves,and free agency as the season progresses.

                      Hopefully this pans out well.

                      Keep y'all posted

                          Would that interfere with the OSFM opening day roster?

                          Where do I go to download that file?

                            no because the guy that created the file based it off the Opening Day roster...and go to the rosters forum and search Halara v3 franchise file....something should pop up

                                u welcome...i believe he turned off CPU trading before he created the file because he updates the rosters daily mimicking real-life transactions so if u dont care about the trading aspect, then it's a good file to use
