This too.

I lean heavily on OSA and intangibles (work ethic and intelligence).

Trust matching stats and scouts first. Then matching OSA and scouts ratings next.

Then stats, stats and more stats. (My personal opinion)

Jumping this thing up, maybe Scortch would like to have a quick read, Shall we stick this for the newbies??

Now the question.

All about Drafting, do you trust your "Legendary" Amateurs Scout with a 30% of the Budget in Amateur Scouting?? Or do you Trust OSA?? I have huge diferences between how my Scout see this year Draft Class and how OSA values them

The off-season sims are where you can adjust your scouting and player development budget. Just a reminder, our league does not need you to put any money into scouting for International.

But...does anyone ever put like 2% into your Intl scouting?? I keep thinking it helps for Intl free agents to get a slightly better look. Then again, I have strange quirks.

Note to all in the BLB...especially our new GMs...

More or less I think I have pitching and offense controlled (We suck at this point anyway but is what I have in my team right now)

Now I would like to know more about D#. What are the ratings that you are looking for when looking for a defensive player? What is a good range (statistics way, nearly .925 is acceptable??) to know that one player is playing outsanding / awful D#? I know ZR is very important. But am wondering if positive or negative numbers could be make-up as a result of outsanding / awful defenders playing around that player?

Also I understand that you don't want your players scoring "E"s but how many errors during the season are alarming?

Take your time for your masterclass and I appreciate your input as ever, hopefully you guys will have a great contender Dallas team soon.

Oh come on! I love the Rule V!!

You would have learned to hate it, whether you've forgotten to protect a player, or not.

[Sharkn20]

We removed the Rule V because people didn't "get it."

In 16 there's a screen that tells you all of your Rule 5 eligible players. Versions too late.

I'll pour some St. Ides for my homie.

Attention NEWBIES and VETERANS!

In OOTP15, on the Front Office - Possible Free-Agents Page, there is now a new option under "Available Actions." You can now "Offer all minor league Free-Agents contract extensions." This will avoid the mishaps of letting those minor leaguers go in Free-Agency that you forgot to extend.

Just FYI.
