1855 Season Thread
Spring Training is complete.
1st half of the season starts on Tuesday night. Have an enjoyable weekend. For the newbies -- not that you're dealing -- but in the off-chance you were -- the trade deadline is essentially on Monday night and then you can't make a deal again until between the 1st and 2nd half break. But no one ever trades around here, so I guess I won't worry about it until it happens. |

The expansion teams will pick 3, 4, 5, 6 in this year's draft. I used a list randomizer on random.org to pick the order:

Since I'm commish, I'll pick 4th among these teams automatically. |

Panzzer had to drop out, because he had family issues to tend to. He'd be welcomed back if he decides he has time for OOTP in the future.
We're very lucky to add to our recent string of all-star owners, with ekcut joining us and he'll be taking over the Winnemucca franchise starting this year. He's been around the fast-sim game since the early years, has earned his stripes in FOOL and now he'll be joining us in SLOP. So give him a hearty welcome!

Anyone interested in a winter league that would take place during the weekend of the off-season. Nothing especially intense, just a way to develop some prospects and otherwise gets guys some work.
An idea that occurred to me on my run today and I thought I'd post and see if anyone was remotely intrigued.

File is going up now. It'll be slower than it ever should be, because my internet is not running well today. I'll post when it's complete.
2nd half of the season will be simmed tomorrow night. Teams are logjammed, so it's still anyone's race! |

Well this is wonderful. In the process of DL the new file. It stops and i get a message from windows saying that ootp 13 has stopped working, windows will notify you if there is a solution and it closes. So i fire it up again and still wont load.
anyone else have this problem or is it my ootp curse? |

You had that problem because I was putting up a new file just now because of a 2nd trade that went down, because my internet is super slow today for whatever reason. Try again now, it should be fine.

Obviously the bad expansion teams are artificially making teams look better than they ought to be. Anytime you can win 90+ and finish 4th...things are awry.

Considering how bad Lake Tahoe started the year, the fact they only lost 135 games is impressive.
Brooklyn heads for a chance at their 3rd straight NL pennant, after Carolina preceded them in doing the same. In fact, since Carolina won their first pennant in '45, they've won five (claiming 2 Series titles along the way) and the only thing standing in Brooklyn's way is the last team to attempt to win three straight titles. In the AL, Syracuse looks to repeat as AL champ, while Memphis seeks their first pennant since '46. It's not for a lack of trying, it'll be their third straight ALCS appearance. Just can't seem to get over the hump. Knowing this audience, I doubt it'll be the case...but if there's a clamoring for some kind of play-in game between the 2nd and 3rd place teams in each league, that's something we can implement for next year. I didn't figure there would be any real clamoring for it though. Just saying... |

File is up. Tomorrow night, someone will win a title and celebrate by quietly screaming at the computer.

Also, there's a strong possibility that I'm moving the Skeeters to Los Angeles to revive the old Los Angeles Vulcans for next year.

Charlie Taylor logs 29 wins at age 38. Pedro Villegas of Rio Grande goes 28-10 after never winning more than 16 games before (and that was during his rookie year.)
Should be interesting to see how things normalize with the expansion teams (presumably) getting better in the future. |
