Indy leagues and posting system

olivertheorem · 04-21-2014, 10:15 PM

Has anyone tried adding a domestic indy league with the posting system enabled yet?

Shouldn't be any need to do that.

There was an indy targeted addition of the ability to set a fee for selling players from a given league. MLB teams will buy guys from the indy leagues now.

I know. I was wondering if anyone had given the addition a test drive since release. :P

I know it SHOULD work, but being in the middle of software testing at work has me a little skittish. :P

I have two indy leagues using the posting system. Havent paid much attention to it though. I had this as the buying contract was only added yesterday. 5(ish) players got posted each year but I did not pay attention if what happened to them

This is a feature that I am keenly interested in. Hopefully someone else interested in this will post some of their opinions soon.

I added an Indy league (modeled after the Atlantic League) in the middle of may. I might have screwed up as it generated players instead of signing free agents, but they are now signing real free agents (lower level guys, experience ranging from SSA to AAA). Set the purchase fee to $10,000 and so far 4 guys were purchased. All were assigned to lower levels. So far so good.

How do you purchase from an internaitonal league if you have that setting on?

They'll show up under Posted Players (I think that's the header) in Transactions during the offseason. Whether theirs or yours, I'm not sure.

Right click on the player and it should say "Purchase Player for $$$"

Maybe I haven't played in awhile or it changed in 15 but where do I add a new league to an already existing game? I want to start a standard game and add a non-affiliated league with no players on the teams. Thanks!
