Next sim tomorrow
Since there was no blog post with the last sim, I sent Zev an email asking if he was planning to run the next sim tomorrow. He responded yes, barring any unforeseen developments. Just passing it along FYI.

River Cities and Cleveland still tied!!!!
Nate, I guess it is not that odd what happened 2 seasons ago with you and Paul as we are tied for the lead again after another 15 days have passes. That makes 3 of the 4 sims in which we have been tied...will this continue???

Apologies
Hey, all -
So, thanks to the vagaries associated with real estate transactions, I am temporarily between... er... homes at the moment, and have been for almost two weeks. I'm thus without Internet connection most of the time and without connection to the game ever. I'm finally closing on Friday and should be able to catch up then, but in the meantime, two things:
1. I apologize to anyone who has tried to contact me about trades or other matters in the last two weeks; I'm not blowing you off, but I am living in a hotel.
2. If a kind soul could do just one simple thing to my team, I would appreciate it considerably. Specifically, I would like my rotation changed from a 6- to a 5-man rotation (the rotation should be Osborne, Reuter, Hunnicutt, Shipp, and Morales, with Lawrence and Amell listed as Spot Starters. Everything else I'll just have to live with.
Really sorry. This sucks, because I had high hopes for my team this year and being unable to manage it for these three sims is helping to put me in a hole. Oh, well. I blame Omar Minaya, because basically everything bad is his fault.

Trade: River Cities and Maui
Dateline: Marietta, OH May 1, 2015 -- For the second time in the last six week of this new season River Cities has dealt a player under 25 for someone older. The deal, completed with the Maui Mashers, is already being dubbed by the sportswriters 'The Rainbow Connection'.
Leaving the questionable atmosphere of southeastern Ohio this time is 1B/OF Ronald Amos, acquired only ten months ago from Hickory. Leaving Maui to walk the sacred ground of Ohio is Maui starting catcher Thomas Geter along with 2B prospect Travis Sparrow from AAA Pukalani.
Amos, hitting .333 so far in 2015, said in a release, "YEAH, BABY! AWESOME! Who cares about baseball? I'm heading for Hawaii! Hits, schmits, I'm hitting the waves and the bikinis, dude!" Amos then went on to donate all of his cold weather clothes to the Goodwill on Greene Street and parade down Front Street in a colorful shirt and lei. "Get it", he continued, "Leied? Get it! That's me, man! That's ME!"
Reached actually AT Hawaii, River Cities owner Nate Wooley commented, "I just thought I'd make the young man's dreams come true. Amos is already from California, sadly from San Jose instead of southern Cali, so I hope he'll be able to adapt. Yes, dear, more lotion would be good. Wait, don't you print that!"
Rumors abound that, with the first base problem now resolved, owner Wooley is turning his attention to reworking his crowded outfield. With Maclin, DuBreuil, Birdsell, and Suarez something is likely to be done. Just what? This reporter couldn't say but it'll be interesting to watch.
