Everyone welcome Freddy Wander (kungfuwig), the new GM of the Kansas City Royals. Please answer his questions as I am sure he will have some.

Kyle Miller has been let go due to extended absence (over six weeks) from the league without notice.

Franchise GM: Invalid Transactions / Draft Pick Value

« on: February 23, 2010, 09:23:25 AM »

What is interesting with the open door of the EDR transfer (given it passes its special clauses) is that not all of the draft picks will be used later this year. This diminishes value of later round picks only if you do not have the room. If you have the room though, it greatly increases the value of the pick. If over 50% of the league had 4 people on EDR then your 10th round pick is more like a late 7th or early 8th round pick. Just a thought to ponder as we get closer to our first draft.

Franchise GM: FGM Commissioner News & Tid Bits / Tiers Remodeled

« on: February 15, 2010, 05:03:28 PM »

The tiers were designed as a simple aspect of replicating the market disparity of baseball. While I do like this, I think we can afford to make it more complex for 2011 and beyond. I am thinking of having a different cap amount per each team that is based on previous spending and winning. For example, if a team was at a 0.500 record in one year, and they were a small market team, then it would make sense that the owner would invest in them. Likewise, if a big market team had the same record, the owner would cut the losses.
