OOTP Developments Forums - Heartland Baseball League needs one

http://www.heartlandbaseballleague.c...all_league.png
The Heartland Baseball League is a 16 team, semi-stats only, fictional league set in the Midwest. The league started in 1978 and we just finished the 2003 season. We play a balanced, interleague schedule(16/4) of 144 games beginning April 1 and ending in September. The top two teams in each league(North/South) complete in the playoffs for a shot at the Heartland Series. All major pitching and hitting ratings/potentials are hidden while the minor ones(fielding, speed, pitcher endurance) are available. Each team has three levels of minors and we boast a full feeder system of college and high school teams.

This league has been active since January 2013 and we still have several original owners. The commish does not run a team, just the league. We sim in the AM on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday and we sim 1/3 of a month at a time making each regular season complete in about six weeks. We then sim the offseason one month at a time so that they move rather quickly as well. There is no arbitration so players are eligible for free agency after four seasons in the bigs and they become minor league free agents after spending four years in the minors. There is also a $5 million salary cap. We use OOTP16 with no immediate plans to move to 17.

The Heartland Baseball League is in search of a GM for the South Bend Silver Sox. The Silver Sox need a lot of attention coming off it's 12th consecutive losing season. They have some decent pieces to play with. Slugging OF Antonio Gonzales could be used in a trade to bring in some youth or you could keep him and try building around him. This team needs an owner willing to get the rebuild going. South Bend is in good shape with the cap with Gonzales taking up 40% of the $3.1 million payroll. We have a lot of simnation veterans in the league so don't be afraid to ask questions about the league.
