Related to the Rule 5 draft being simmed Saturday at 8p ET: please try to have your 40-man roster together (protecting R5-eligible players) ahead of tomorrow’s sim. That will make it easier for everyone to put together their Rule 5 draft board on Saturday.

Also: everyone who has been making trades, please check your rosters screen and move your players out of the DFA area and to wherever in your org you want them to be.

Got a little delayed with the sim tonight, but the new save file is up.

I rushed and forgot to process trades. Will process them later tonight.

Save with trades processed is up. It’s 11/29 in game. Before your next export please set your 40-man rosters for the R5 draft!

New save file is up. R5 draft stuff is live and you can start tinkering with your Rule 5 draft lists.

Tomorrow we will try a 3 day sim to shake some of these FAs loose.

With the Rule 5 draft tomorrow, I requested that everyone get their 40-man rosters in order so we all have a day to see who is Rule 5 eligible on other rosters and make our draft boards.

I did not do this properly yesterday and have since moved 3 players to my 40-man, making them no longer eligible for the Rule 5 draft. The players I moved are:

Tristan Gray
Tyler Bortnick
Alejandro Kirk

I do not plan on moving anyone else to my 40-man before the Rule 5. If you move anyone to your 40-man today, please share with all of us as best you can.

I was wrong, because I am a monster and also wasn’t paying attention earlier. I’ve added these players to my 40-man, they won’t be available in R5 draft.

Tyler Freeman
Nelvin Correa
Jonathan Hernandez
Anderson Tejeda

Considering adding the left hoof pitching the baseball in the Simules logo and looking for feedback if the change is welcomed or if it ruins it, in the way the Jesus fresco was irreparably harmed.

Thoughts?

simules alternate logo final

The first logo is awesome because it looks like the mule is eating the baseball. This version is also awesome because it looks like the mule has buried a hatchet in the baseball. The mule hates baseballs.

It’s his hoof! Not a hatchet!
