Preseason
Here's some of the league's pre-season MLB relevant signings:
Kevin Kouzmanoff, 3B, 2 years, $580k
Chris W. Carter, 1B, 4 years, 1.24 million
Jon Rauch, RP, 3 years, $430k
Josh Vitters, LF, 3 years, $890k
Mitchell Boggs, RP, 2 years, $230k
Greg Smith, SP, 1 year, $210k
My league's preseason predictions were:
North Division
Dortmund Wanderers- 114-48
Berlin Uber Squirrels- 97-65
Hamburg Stealers- 81-81
Solingen Alligatiors- 79-83
Cologne Cardinals- 78-84
Hannover Regents- 77-85
Bonn Capitals- 73-89
Paderborn Untouchables- 71-91
South Division
Bad Homburg Hornets- 84-78
Haar Disciples- 84-78
Mainz Athletics- 83-79
Heidenheim Heidekopfe- 81-81
Regensburg Legionare- 78-84
Mannheim Tornados- 76-86
Tubingen Hawks-75-87
Stuttgart Reds- 69-93
Among the top 10 hitters, I had the top three with Vitters, Carter, and Kouzmanoff in that order. Greg Smith was my only pitcher ranked in the top 10, ranked #1. Should be a decent season to begin with.
One decision I'm pondering, granted it would take a TON of time, is to make the CEB draft classes for 2016 an association draft versus a league draft, to try to bring some stability to the entire association versus keeping it in league.
