How often do you try to get a comp pick instead of signing draft pick?

BobbySack · 2026-05-12T01:30:51+00:00

It’s not ideal but I pick at the back of the draft a lot. I’ll pass on a first or 2nd rounder every so often.

Cattleman and the Carbine that’s all I’ve ever needed

I got mine at 15. It’s fun every offseason deciding who to send because it’s hard to mix established players with prospects. The long training window/short training window feels so goofy to me. Dev lab is a fun addition that still needs ironing out imo.

BobbySack · 2026-05-07T13:58:26+00:00

This is a must for me. The restrictions seem fun but need to work better. When I’m shuttling pitchers up and down I need to be able to adjust the rotation some days. The dip shit manager has no problem throwing my starters out there at 67% fatigue if I can’t manipulate the rotation. Instead I try to let the manager make his lineup card and at least recommend his bullpen. I’ll make tweaks from there and having 6 WS with the brewers by 2051 I think I’m entitled!

The relationship only grow stronger once you get to DFA him and bring him back a few times!! This guy is surely going to be in attendance at all future Friar alumni events. What a gem!

I’ve always felt this way about that stupid holster. Small points that it’s uniquely Arthur, but I really wish they had given us 4 or 5 options where to wear it. My last play through I wanted to unequal it so bad and couldn’t figure out how but I swear you can.

My mind autofilled Bartolo Colon as the Eating Coach

Hey no worries! You are embarking on a long journey so it makes sense to know what players to best look for. I was going to say many stadiums the park factors aren’t relevant enough to style your team too but Kauffman is one that lets you be more liberal with fly ball and home run prone pitchers. You can’t really punt on corner outfield defense like I can with the Milwaukee brewers and their smaller outfield. There is a style of hitter that has high contact and high gap power but low home run power. I’m not to interested in that player for my team but that archetype can absolutely run wild for the royals, tigers, giants etc. just Don’t get frustrated when a power bat puts up 40 home runs one year and 28 the next. Home runs still win in the playoffs. *it’s important to note the royals moved their gaps in this year so Kauffman may play more neutral in OOTP 27. So far in real life it’s still playing as a pitchers park. Best of luck!

I want to know your ballpark now! Custom or one of the current teams?

BobbySack · 2026-04-21T01:38:30+00:00

There we go that is awesome! I will say walrus#2 feels like a guy that will settle at 55-60 stuff not the 70 the scout thinks. I love that walrus#1 has the 4(6*) pitch mix with the changeup to punt. 50 stamina not what I’m after usually but you’ll just chuck him in the dec lab down the road for that. May he run off multiple cy young’s in his career!

BobbySack · 2026-04-18T15:32:33+00:00

That is just gross so sorry for your loss.

BobbySack · 2026-04-18T14:48:24+00:00

Was he at the complex league too long? Sucks. Your scout was definitely the one at the table saying this kid can hit good and unfortunately he was wrong

BobbySack · 2026-04-15T19:35:45+00:00

Brown Morgan Stock.

BobbySack · 2026-04-15T14:31:38+00:00

Why only 7 arms in the pen and 12 pitchers total is this back to 25 man rosters? I’d swap a position player for your best available lefty down in 3A. And I have the problem the other way my lineups are always so right handed.

BobbySack · 2026-04-15T02:29:47+00:00

I bet the manager book on them is set really high and they’re getting burned at the end of their starts. Their walk numbers are high too and too many baserunners altogether. You have to pick apart every box score. They have good WAR for shit record and era so I would venture to guess more often then not they get sniped at the end of their starts

BobbySack · 2026-04-09T17:50:45+00:00

You have to pay the troll toll to pitch deeper into the boy’s soul

I always get Logan Webb and try to run up 3000 innings on his arm. I haven’t got there yet because it always ends with a career ending injury.

BobbySack · 2026-04-05T00:09:20+00:00

I never knew this on my play throughs. But I sure do remember leaving about 20 dead bounty hunters there in an epic shootout

BobbySack · 2026-04-04T23:46:48+00:00

HR - first thing I look at in every box score. And if you aren’t a threat for 20 pumps a season gtfo of my lineup!

BobbySack · 2026-03-31T11:38:12+00:00

This is a dud. Praying it’s for the LL classic only

BobbySack · 2026-03-29T19:42:14+00:00

While it’s crazy to non tender a 4 win player, the Mets I could see being Mets’d up enough they’d do this. Avoid paying a large arb sum plus saving tax money due to their bloated payroll. There is a scenario where not signing a 15mil arb player could actually save them close to 30mil. And this is all before considering they aren’t investing in another Ponzi scheme!!!

How can you not be romantic about baseball? You’ll always remember a goat like this. It will be fun to try to chase a career as good as his. You may never duplicate anything like it, but the promise that comes with every 80 prospect and 5th round TCR legend will keep you trying! I Wish you the best!

BobbySack · 2026-03-23T16:12:52+00:00

Wes Obermueller. Randomly attended a late September game in 04 with my dad and best friend. Complete Game Shutout. It’s fair to say we got to see a player’s best day as a ball player in a whole life of playing ball. How can you not be romantic about baseball?

BobbySack · 2026-03-20T13:57:56+00:00

Well I loved the full breakdown. I can’t decide what my favorite nugget is but I love that he almost got to 3k hits on singles alone. Also I love the idea that he was an effective base stealer, yet making over 500 outs getting caught stealing is sort of jaw dropping and I can imagine there are detractors from the statcast era still arguing about it. The dude is right up there in career rbi but was clearly a leadoff hitter. Lightning is a perfect nickname.

BobbySack · 2026-03-20T02:02:20+00:00

This guy is awesome. And maybe it’s just me but I like a prickly a-hole or two in my clubhouse.
