The Nashville Stars Story
OOTP 26 AAR







Welcome to my new AAR.
I'm new to both OOTP and these forums.


Out of the Park Baseball 26 has been scraching the itch that lack of (new) Football Manager has created. It's an amazing sports startegy game that in many ways is far more advanced than FM ever was.


Please do note that my English is still bad (a Pole living in Netherlands) and my knowledge of Baseball, MLB and OOTP is very very limiting. Either way I'm going to take you on a journey with an expansion team in MLB. Nashville Stars. The first season will be the 2028 one to create a bit of...realism. That means i'm setting up myself in quite a difficult scenario. But more on that later. I waited for today as a new patch was just released to start the game, and AAR.


So:
Scanerio: Expansion team in 2028


AAR Goals Short term: (First five seasons)
1 - Have atleast one .450 season
2 - Club culture. Can only sign African-American, African or Latin American ballplayers.
3 - One Owner goal per season
4 - Players are not allowed to earn more than 20 million per season.


AAR Long term goals:
1 - Have a starting pitcher, a closer and two batters that are world class (70+ rating).
2 - Win World series


So the AAR will be written in two different types of updates. First from me as a player, explaining the what is happening to the team and the stats, results etc. and how I play it or atleast want to. And second that will be from a fictional writer Miles Carver who is writing a recurring piece on the team for the Rolling Stone magazine.


Please feel free to ask, suggest or just comment. As mentioned before I'm new to OOTP games. Anyway, each comment gives the extra motivation to write more. Hope you guys enjoy.
