Eric Explains How Money Works
(Preview)
As a public service, I've decided to post an explanation of this complex topic. It is always the hardest part of the ARBA rules for new owners to understand and can even trip up some who have been around for a while.

Bali’s blowup
(Preview)
Time has come to blow this team up and start again. This makes all Bali players available. Matt Olson, Tyler Glasnow, and Trea Turner are the most enticing pieces. We are looking for prospects, picks, and cash (in that order) in return.

Eric's Rule Change Proposals
(Preview)
What the heck, I'll try making some proposals this year and we'll see what happens. #1: Update Tiebreaker Rules: I'm very open to the earlier playoff proposal but whether that changes or not, I think we need to clarify the tiebreaker rules. These can apply with two or more teams. I propose starting wi...

HAR
(Preview)
HAR is looking to move: Anthony Banda, Huascar Brazoban, Jake Burger, Brenan Hanifee, Yuki Matsui, and Leodys Taveras. Freddie Freeman is coming off A but I'm tempted to just pay him unless I can find equal value at another position, preferably catcher or outfield. Main need is catching and outfi...
