League Time Per Sim: 7 days
Current Season: Beginning 2018 Offseason
Constitution: Constitution
StatsPlus: StatsPlus
Rules & Settings:

The PBA has concluded its inaugural season with the Mets taking home the crown! The PBA tries to be as realistic as possible, not taking shortcuts with several things most other leagues don't want to deal with.

For example, Scouting is on (Very accurate), coaching is on, drug suspensions are on (suspensions set to very low), injuries are normal, meaning there are a bunch of them, there are overbudget restrictions, and rain outs are on. Scouts create variance in player evaluation, coaches affect development, some players try to bend the rules, some players can't bend their bodies, bosses suck, and sometimes, it rains. These affect baseball in real life, and affect baseball in the PBA.

Both leagues use a DH to help mitigate some questionable AI decisions.
Ratings are 1-10
Draft picks and recently drafted players can be traded.
If a team goes more than $5 million over budget, they have two months to get under or face adjustments to their draft and scouting budgets in future years.
Four foreign leagues run in the background (often with hilarious results, and not so hilarious report-loading times).
There are cosmetic rewards (nicknames, minor league stadium name changes) for those who are active writers in the league
Finally, yes we have StatsPlus, and Slack.

To allow GMs the experience of taking in the full scope of the league, we sim every three days in-season.

If you're interested, there are several teams available on different ends of the talent/market spectrum. The available teams are:

Phillies

If you want to join the league, PM me or drop a line in the boards. If things fill up but you want to be a part of the league, the fact that there are foreign leagues means you can take over the Leon Bravos or Samsung Lions or any other team in our foreign leagues while waiting for an opening.

Looking forward to welcoming you to the Pinnacle Baseball Association!
