After having his team option voided, Mal Fountain became a free agent for the 2nd time. This time, he didn't end up back in Louisville. As the page turned from 2058 to 2059 and most of the country nursed their New Year's hangovers, the Oysters signed the longtime Slugger to a 2 year $24,000,000 deal...

While still adjusting to the new ratings, I saw he was a 14/7/5 pre-25. I figured he would of gone higher with those ratings so I liked the value.

Realized I left out Ricardo Norman at 3B last year who was fantastic, winning the Gillstrom. I'm not sure he's the hitter he was last year but he's a very nice player. Arm may not keep him in the hot corner long term and 1B is blocked unless they eventually DH McCoy.

After breaking their long playoff streak in 2053 and making it in 3 of 4 years, the Kernels have steadily starting falling back off. Late in the offseason, the Kernels went a new direction when their GM stepped down which probably doesn't help their chances for 2059. That isn't an indictment on new ...

Currently a 50/50 split of frustrated and on track.

I'm in line with the other guys. Should of been something. We all know signing day is 1/1 and some of those guys would of signed for more. But I'll survive.

I’m completely aligned with your analysis of the second group. What the hell was Ramon Gonzalez thinking? At least the others have had some really productive seasons and could reasonably end up benefiting from a bidding war. Gonzalez has been the pits.

Please convert Ommar bin Ayyub to a reliever. Pretty sure he just drops the worst rated pitch, but just in case, please drop the changeup.

Rocky Mountain Gets CF Júlio Martínez (S-A) $5 million cash Twin Cities Gets C John Adams (RMO retain 50%) Thanks to Brandon for the easy deal. Seems I always play Sacramento in the playoffs... may as well have one of the best throwing catchers in the game for our next matchup. Confirmed

I figure struggling or frustrated doesn't necessarily mean it'll stay that way. Same with excelling. Just curious what everyone was looking at after the first sim. No worries here. Yet.

2 struggling. 4 frustrated. 3 on track. 1 excelling.

Seems to be the best one so far.

bcslouck

So I now that I'm looking, I have 2 excelling, 2 struggling, and the rest frustrated.

How's everyone's going after the first sim? Can't remember at the moment but I'd say half the guys I put in mine are frustrated. I'd assume that won't always hold, especially if you pick the long ones. I think frustrated is the worst one so I'd hope a couple improve going forward.

I'll swap with someone.

I go to Opening Day every year and follow as close I can to the Orioles. Listen if I have the chance. I don't have cable so don't watch too many games on TV these days. I have already been to 2 games and will be going to at least 2 more by the end of May. Definitely don't know around the league like...

bcslouck

So far, it's fine.

Just put a 2058-19 in the title and take the credit.

Your preview was much closer than mine.
