Power Pros Forum

Here, I'll do an interview for you.

This is what Mike Jacobs had to say about it:
"It was magic. Just magic. I watched the ball sail towards home plate, the batter tapped it to third base, and then... Zim tossed it to me, and that split second before the ball came to me was like pure joy... then the ball hit my glove, and I squeezed it, and I knew that we were finally champions of the world."
When asked who he would attribute the success of the team, he said:
"I want to thank all of my teammates for this incredible, wonderful season, and I would give credit to them, but, y'know, I just feel like there's someone watching me, someone who knows everything and, sort of, controls how we do. God? I don't know. It feels special. Really special. But anyway, we're champions of the world!! Pardon me, I have to go party."

this is my 1200th post.

Alot of good lefty pitchers are gone and Casanova was my minor leauge catcher

that was a godly 1200th post but.........
He threw to french at second to win it. Not jacobs. O well

it's the end of a magical season.

And now...












IT'S CONTRACT RENEWAL TIME!!!
THEN FREE AGENTS!!!

please update us on the available free agents (and don't be afraid to do a little S/L )

I have very little needs though
I think trading Willits is on that list

And a new catcher would be nice. Cash will start in AAA

NO HE DIDN'T!! HE THREW TO JACOBS!! OF COURSE HE DID!!!
I don't care what you say, he threw to Jacobs. =D

Maybe Jacobs ran over to cover second.

Oh and you can sign a free agent and convert him to whatever position you want in spring training.

whatever you say longball, whatever you sayyyy

For the renewals, I'm just gonna tell you the biggest raises and stuff, I don't feel like saying all of the changes

that's definitely a good idea.

just watch, your team salary is going to jump like 20000 points or something.

but you already have 90000 points from the postseason and more from awards.

nope I have 150000 points

I mean you got 90000 points from the postseason.

I know it's not free agent time yet but you should sign Mark Teixiera and convert him to a catcher. His 14 (A) arm strength should be useful.

what is your salary? My team will get about 250,000k if we win the world series.

O man tough decisions

Wakefield wants a 2040 point raise to 6040 points and hes down to F control and B stamina
No contract for him I'll miss you wake

No other big contract things expect Nathan wants from 4000 to 2500 and alcheves wanst 2250 to 400

So I'm good with money, Wakefield could be an emergency mid-season pickup

I'm not sure what my salary is

Yeah, I would have cut Wakefield too.

Sign another free agent pitcher to replace him.

darn you Nathan!! Postseason Choker! Serves you right!!

The catching market is good, but too pricy for a back-up so I offered Valentin an 809 point 2 year offer

I offered Sheets a 10500 3 year offer. I have alot of money so I'm good
and I offered Lidge a 2 year 3100 point offer

I shaved salary with Nathan, Wakefield and Alcheves(Alcheves and Nathan are of course still with us)

Also I just had to say that Brad Wilkerson just had a great year with the Cards
