Very Cool, (about the WS thing) :!: :!:
Could you keep us informed on the Free Agents around the league....
Maybe you could land a "star".....(which would be a first for the Pirates in a long time)

I'm not going to try to land one of them. I'm afraid we won't do very well next year and don't want to big of a payroll.

Anyways, award winners from our team is:

Fielder of the year: RONNY PAULINOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

World Series MVP: Edwinnn Encarnacionnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn


Hideo Nomo is still playing, but probably no longer on this team....

Those are my reactions.

Are you even going to look, you could get a cheap(er) player that is a "star"...
It looks like you don't need any "star" pitching, but you could look for a hitter....

I almost got rid of Doumit, but then I figured only 27-28 good utility player.

I thought, Mientkieczi has a good arm I can make him outfield.

I kept LaRoche beacause he had to good of a season



IMPORTANT FREE AGENTS! This will be desired salary
Vladimir Guerrero from Angels declares FA 14000
Chipper Jones from the Braves declares FA 12760
Eric Byrnes from the Diamondbacks declares FA 3310

Other Notable FAs:
K-Rod 8190
Flash Gordan 9250
Jake Peavy 4160
Greg Maddux 7300
Jason Varitek 10800
Jim Thome 12600
Carlos Delgado 16010
Orlando Cabrera 6100
Raul Ibanez 4450
Pat Burrell 7290
Adam Dunn 11310
Manny Ramirez 13110
Mark Kotsay 8620
Jim Edmonds 8880
Mike Cameron 3700
Bobby Abreu 15750

Any suggestions on who to pick?

I guess your right, I could try to pick up a pretty good hitter. I think I am good on Pitching.

K-ROD!!!
He is insane, and you could use a closer.

Adam Dunn would be good. He would be the perfect cleanup hitter for a lineup with not much power.

Possibly Jake Peavy, depends how your salary, but K-Rod and Dunn would be who i target.

Could you put up some salaries, and what you are willing to spend??
That seems to be a pretty big list of "star" hitters......
I do like the idea of Dunn and K-Rod....

And K-Rod, do you have a "solid" closer?
Maybe he could break a record...(57).. :mrgreen:

Well I had an even younger Matt Capp, he finished with like 31 Ks 27 Saves but a 6.12 ERA K-Rod cuts that era in half, but I sent down Capps beacause he blew like 8 saves.

K-rods Breaking balls are better but Capp's Control is better.... Capps is cheaper too.

Since I won the WS I will spend a little more, but 40k is my limit/

If you think that Capps can be your closer....then don't worry about K-Rod... :|
But I still think you need a "power" batter....
Right now who is your power batter?

Then I will forget K-Rod..

However my powers are Adam LaRoche (22homers) Edwin (17) Wilson (13) They all have B but I think I need an A to secure power.
