Work and sick kids = late sim

Sorry guys…had a crazy morning with work planned only to be derailed by a sick kid and a pediatrician visit.  I won’t be back till late this afternoon.  (5 PST).  Sim will be at that time or I’ll see if I can get some help on it.

Reminder:

Contract Bonuses: You are not allowed to offer any bonus’ to a player at any time.  If a player is found to have a bonus either given in free agency or via an extension, the contract will be void and the player will be placed back in FA.  If a player is given an extension with a bonus, the extension will be void and you will no longer be allowed to sign the player to an extension.

FYI…new league file uploaded with Adam Dunn as a FA.  You only need to d/l league file and export again if you intend to issue bid for Dunn.  And for the record I think it’s dumb that if a player is asking for the bonus that we can’t give it.

Sunday sim completed

Some big signings are taking place as teams are working hard at adding talent to their teams via FA and a very active trade market.  Look for things to heat up the next few sims as well.
