Finances
I was playing in sim mode. After 20 seasons the Nats budget was alway $160 million. That was difficult because the Phillies and Braves were always a lot more than that in similar markets/fans. Never reached the World Series. Strasberg kept getting hurt and Zimmerman's rating dropped and with that money I couldn't keep my rising stars. Now I'm playing PbP and starting in the second season my budget went down to $150 million after reaching the World Series. Rather large market, above average fans, 88 fan interest. Can't sign anybody. In the third season now, still at $150 and the team just can't compete. Finances are horrible. Hoping the owner passes so maybe the son can up the cash. I think we know the Lerner's aren't stingy when they want to win.
