heh... I was thinking the same thing.... if it wasn't for that bloated sale of Lyons for me, I wouldn't have nearly as much as i do right now....

hoping I have some of the cards needed for the new missions.... maybe there will be another skyrocketing price for one of 'em...

OMGPuppies · 07-22-2019, 02:09 PM

Perfect. Don't look at the PP gator.

Jeff1787 · 07-22-2019, 02:38 PM

Confusing why my Shasta Black Bears got promoted. I thought just the four top teams got promoted?

HaHa, that was from the sale of a Tim Keefe card I was lucky enough to pull. The team theme is Negro League players or players that played in both the Negro Leagues and MLB. So my pick of what to spend the PP on is limited.

QuantaCondor · 07-22-2019, 03:33 PM

New set release days are amazing for OL.

-Free PP from a heap of leftover challenge mode pack trash
-Discounts on good players who are being sold to feed new collections acquisitions
-Discounts on players from existing collections especially LIVE collections since packs are being opened from collection finishes and extra pack buying activity

It's hard to go wrong here. Also I definitely underestimated how good some of those LIVE collections rewards are

You weren't one of the top 4 teams? If not that IS weird!

Stanley Kuppchaser · 07-22-2019, 06:24 PM

Some games have been played. Boogie (74 games) did not fare too badly, despite being in a lonely outpost. Good luck to all.

That's why I called it "penalty." It's not fair to the other teams, but it's what we've got to work with. There's no way around it, if the games get missed. The stats compilers are doing a great job, and for what OL is paying them, they are amazing. Plus, they also have to contend with OOTP's random drops and changes.

I pulled this card for Yasmani Grandall. He's going for around 6000 in the AH. I know nothing about current baseball. He's obviously pretty good (94 OVR). With the way PT is adjusting the ratings, does he have a shot to go up to 100, or should I unload him now? His card says +4, but I assume that's the season total. Thanks.

stl jason · 07-22-2019, 06:54 PM

Diamond league schedule: (as usual, think I got 'em all... if not, it'll all balance out in the standings pulled from the team-v-team report)

I would unload him. I remember last year I had him in fantasy and he didn’t do well late in the season. Maybe he was fatigued.

He'd have to have an INSANE second half to get to 100 by the end of the season

Team nicknames appear to now be capped at 20 characters, so maybe some OLs were dropped off.

good info.... probably a crackdown on those ridiculously long names some teams had

Edster007 · 07-22-2019, 10:05 PM

A quick pass shows 579 OL match ups this week in Bronze. Put it together quickly so I may have a slight margin for error.

Walter Johnson from the Harlem Hatchets no-hit the Vikings. That guy is like a human trophy case.

it's like the rest of us are little league players in comparison.... I just looked at his history tab....

16 time pitcher of the year
13 time MVP
PP lifetime earned: 116840 (that's about half of what my team has earned total

)

Redmond began its first foray into silver like a squad "just passing through" on its way to gold. Their theme song must be Captain Spaulding singing, "Hello, I Must be Going." Silver stalwarts Auckland, Sad Hill, Pablo, and Frankenthal started well, keeping themselves visible in Redmond's rear view mirror.

Edster007 · 07-23-2019, 06:11 AM

Looks like we are going to have a very competitive season in bronze if the first month is any indication.

stl jason · 07-23-2019, 06:40 AM

Diamond league update:

Cooper sits atop the standings with an unblemished 1-0 record; but Ewa Beach is setting a red-hot pace after the first month.
