League 162: PS4 MLB Show '14 Online Franchise

Thanks for all the kind words, everyone!

"Teams in/at transitions/crossroads" might be another fun choice for team selection. My Tigers come to mind as I could see them staying on course to win the division, but also taking a dive down to third as some of these moves leave them...well, at a crossroads.

Keeping things in the division is still what seems to be best. Do we start with just 5 guys? 10?

Why isn't this game out yet?!?

As somebody that has run several Online Dynasties for several seasons, and I'm sure you've run stuff too, I always tried to have very few people because it makes it easier to manage.

I'd suggest no more than 10 to start off, but that's just me.

Thanks, WB.

I also think it helps with comradery as well. When the time comes to expand, we'll know!

10 sounds like a good start for now, unless others object?

Let's discuss format now?

• Fill 2 divisions (same league, different?)
• Pick whatever teams we want (put a cap on each league/division?)
• Pick teams that fit some sort of them (new managers, rebuilds, small markets, etc.)
• Other?

I think having anymore than 5 guys in one single league is going to create too many H2H games which may make things difficult in the beginning.

The divisions idea is really appealing, as think how awesome it will be to have 3-4 game series with your rivals during the week.

You mean you don't like the Fister trade..? Lol.

How about a 12 person league with a cap on 2 users PER division?

If you look at the nerdy SABRE stats, switching in Smyly for Fister doesn't bother me one bit; they have nearly identical numbers. What bothers me is the return--as it stands now, we traded Fister for a RP and a 37 year old SS.
