Simulating the Trade Deadline in OOTP

10:55 AM - August 3, 2016 by RaychelSnr

The non-waiver trade deadline has come and gone. In 2016, it was a relatively quiet one. Sure, there were a lot of trades, but we just didn't see the blockbusters or big names moved like we have in the past. Even some recently active teams, like the Phillies, remained quiet on Monday.

But what if things had played out differently? What other big trades might have been executed with even just the most minor of changes?

Using Out of the Park 2016, here are some "big" trades that went down on a simulated July 31st (OOTP uses the traditional date in its simulation).

For folks playing in a solo league, I'd recommend starting out with trades set to "Very Low" until you get to June or July. Increase it then to "Average" or so, and then around July 29-30th, put it to "High" or "Very High," and you'll start to see some realistic number of moves.
