This is an extremely in depth online baseball simulation game. You take over a franchise, manage the team, run the front office, scout players, make trades, sign free agents, manage payroll, etc. You have control of your major league team and five minor league teams (from AAA down to Rookie League). Anyone who has ever wanted to own a baseball team should check it out. But be forewarned: it's not for the faint of heart. It looks very complex and time consuming. But I'm sure it won't be so bad once you get the hang of things. Oh, and it costs $15.95 for a season, so it's not for fickle fans. Plus it's a SIMULATION game and not a FANTASY league.
Anyway, I've gotten my own franchise. The Fargo Argonauts in the "Gehringer World." There are still eight spots left in this world up for grabs, just in case anyone's interested.

Originally posted by badmoonYou're in the same 'world', but you're in the other league. I'm in the Gehringer world, National league. You're in the Gehringer world, American League. You're in the league where your girly-man pitchers don't want to break their nails in the batter's box.
I just joined. I have the New Orleans franchise. Darn, no Minnesota team. Same league as Ring is in.
Originally posted by rwingettThe DH kind of bothered me as well. But this franchise had the best most recent success of those available.

Originally posted by neonpeon41Looks like your pitching staff got chewed up last year. ML and AAA both. That Davey James at AA looks alright, though. You want to trade him?
Count me in. (Like I needed something else to waste time with...)
Looks like fun.

I've got the greatest pitcher ever. Posiedon Barker. Gotta love that name. He was 20-9 with a 3.38 ERA last year.
Originally posted by rwingettYeah, my pitching looks bad, and they're all way over-paid. Who pays 8.0 Mil/Year for a career 6.08 ERA, 5.8 Mil/Year for career 5.72 ERA? I don't think my pitching was managed well at all last year as these guys were okay until they joined my team.

My hitting is mediocre.
At least I have health and speed...*sigh*...it'll take a while to right this ship.
There is a ton of info to sort through. My main concern now is that I go on vacation next week. I hope I can get finances, etc. sorted out before I leave.
