OOTP Developments Forums - vMLB has openings...

First of all this is a great league with several years of running (In Real world time). We did over 10 full seasons in vMLB 1.0 before starting a new league with updated rosters (2011) we just finished the 4th season in 2.0 (2015) and looking forward to MANY MANY more years... If you are looking for a great, reliable league then this is the place for you. We started with real roster sets from the 2011 season. No coaches/scouts, ratings from 1-100. Here is a quick preview of the teams that are open; if you have any questions feel free to ask me.

Now entering into the offseason after completing our 4th (2015) season in vmlb 2.0 just starting arbitration on today (11/11/12) so get in for the start of the off season. Plenty of big market teams available with money to spend!

Redsox-95-67 last season with the AL wildcard to their credit. Minors ranked 29 but with 20 million coming off the books they will have money to spend this off-season. Lester/Bard led the pitching staff while the offense is going to be in a state of change with several key players about to enter FA.

Rays-81-81 last year with a minors ranked #9. SP Moore, Hellickson and Shields highlight the staff while Longoria is the main offensive piece on the team. In a tough division with Redsox and AL winners Baltimore, but should be fun for someone who wants a challenge.

Angels-78-84 last year with a minors ranked 24 the organization will have tons of money to spend, rebuild needed on the pitching staff but with a offense led by now 24 year old Mike Trout and his 73 steals/ .336 average last season they definitely have a MVP candidate to build around.

Rangers-63-99 record with a minors ranked 15. Only organization to win 2 titles in VMLB 2.0 an aging core and lack of good management make this a good team for someone looking to rebuild from the bottom up…

Braves-62-100 with a minors ranked 30. This will be the hardest project of all. 50+ million of payroll flexibility should help, but possibly losing MVP candidate Heyward .330/.464 to FA will hurt big time. Great players in the infield on offense with 1b Freeman, 3b Davidson, 2b Porter forming a great core all 26 and younger while SP Hanson leads the staff…

Phillies-65-97 with a minors ranked 16. 20 million coming off the books this year. Team has a good mix of vets with some superstars MLB or near MLB ready. SP Perez (20 years old) leads the staff while C McCann 59.7 VORP last season leads the offense. 1b Howard is sitting on 433 career HRs at 35, can he get to 500?

Cardinals-64-98 with a minors ranked 22. 29 Year old MVP candidate OF Rasmus leads the offense (he has VORPED over 53 each of the past 4 seasons) while youngsters Black/Cox are coming into their own. 3 great starters, 2 of which are 25 and 22 make this a team that could do some damage with a good manager, they could make a quick turnaround from a disappointing 2015.

Dodgers-58-104 (second pick in the coming draft) with a minors ranked #1. If you like young, upcoming teams than the dodgers are for you! a projected payroll around 50 mill next year means they will have plenty to spend and with so many good, young players in the system the dodgers could be a .500 team in the tough NL west next season.

Padres-65-97 with a minors ranked 6. In a very tough division the Padres are another rebuild team for someone who wants a challenge. Projected payroll of just 44 million next year this team is in a state of change. 21 year old SP Arvizy projects to be the team’s number 1 while the offense will be led by 23 year old OF Morban. Team has some interesting pieces and with a high draft pick and excellent farm system they could do some damage next season.
