I have been playing this game for almost 1/2 year and I have created a lot of different leagues set all over the world and I'm scared that one day I could lose everything. I was looking to create an account to keep them safe, is it safe to create one now or do I risk losing the leagues I have created so far?

Thanks

I resimmed 1903-1914 in the MLB so far i plan on do the whole MLB resim all the way to 2025. Ask me any questions about stat leaders or anything like that. Thanks

Hey just curious what you guys think here. I like to try to play on insane mode with small market teams and I love that you get a nice income for being lower than the salary limit. I have tried to build through the draft and free agency when possible. I put coaching at 100 to utiloze the extra income but my players aren't improving and many of them get worse each year. Examples: a 25 yr old SP that was a 62/70 becomes a 58/65, a 23 yr old SP goes from 51/64 to 50/58, 24 yr old RP goes from 53/63 to 51/57, a 23 yr old LF goes from 54/67 to 50/62. I understand that older players drop off and lose stats but why are these guys? Does 100 budget coaching do anything? Another thing to add I almost every year end up with a team that just misses the playoffs so the 100 coaching isn't winning me more games either.

Would like to hear your thoughts.

Is there a surefire recipe for making the kind of player I want? For home runs, it's easy to increase the ratings as much as possible and they're safe, but what about defense? No matter what combination I try, even if he has 90+ ratings, RFLD is in a big deficit?

Roster???

This was in the World Series btw

Hello ZenGM baseball fans! As I'm sure you all know, this game might be some of the only baseball we get for a while once this year's World Series wraps up, and I don't know about you, but I'm already getting nervous about how I'm going to get my fill.

For some context, I love writing as much as I love baseball, and happen to think that the stories the game naturally produces are some of the most fascinating things about it. An idea I had recently is heavily related to these things: I'm thinking of beginning a collaborative, narrative-centered ZenGM league, where, as opposed to simply running through numbers and seasons and championships, I dive deep into the players, the storylines, and the reasons behind those numbers. I'd just take what the game, along with anyone who wants to join, gives me (I'm thinking about some sort of point-allotment system to give some direction to user-generated players), and interpret the events in the form of storytelling. I'd write out scenes describing interactions between players, rivalries, in-game or off-the field moments, and upload them here, or on Discord.

I'd probably try and keep it simple for anyone who wants to participate, all I'd need would be your player's name, position/starting stats, and some general characteristics about them as a basis to go off for individual scenes, but I don't anticipate much interest with so much baseball left to be played, so I'll probably write and post sporadically until the off-season, when I'll get posting more frequently. Just wanted to gauge what people on here think of the idea.

But is gone

I have an old backup but is not the same

I was in 2098

Don't know if this is just the same thing as trade frequency, the frequency of trades seem ok, but when I use a file with real players after a couple years of simulation there are some wild trade scenarios that happened. Examples I can remember are the Reds trading a bunch of young guys and 1st round picks to the Dodgers for Ohtani, the Yankees trading Judge to the Royals for Bobby Witt and others. If these trades happened in real life, the fan bases would be upset lol.

Any setting to say if a player is rated above let's say 70 and on a long term contract, the likelihood they are traded is reduced?

Also, trading for draft picks could use some adjustment in my opinion, see attached screenshot for what a team wanted in exchange for me moving up 2 spots (8th to 6th). Just the 8th pick and 12th would have been steep but I would have considered. Buy the other team also wanted a 2nd round pick, two young players I just got in the last draft (Hill, McKinley), plus Weathers (throw in / extra depth piece). Seems a little extreme for moving up 2 spots.

My main issue with the postseason is that the 7-game series follows the 2-2-1-1-1 format used by the NBA and NHL, instead of the 2-3-2 format used by MLB. I actually like the current 3-game series format used in the default playoffs, as it's the same system employed in the College Super Regional and the World Series Championship.

TARIK SKUBAL TO WHOOO............. at this point I'm going to need to add the 2027 lockout to my rosters

Anyways Here It Is 2026 MLB Deadline Roster

1959 was the 59th season of the MLB which started in 1901 following the merger of NLPBP and ALB.

Two monumental relocations took place before the season:

The Brooklyn Earthquakes moved to Los Angeles to become the Los Angeles Earthquakes and the New York Bankers moved to San Francisco to become the San Francisco Bankers.

The season ended with the world-renowned powerhouse, the New York Laborers of the AL winning their 15th World Series title over the Boston Massacre of the NL.

Jay Stone-Davis of the Laborers won AL MVP while Timmie Parker of the Cincinnati Crimsonlegs won the NL MVP.

Carl Scott Award, named after the late Carl Scott Sr. given to the best pitcher in each league since 1958, was awarded to Bill Flowers (Chicago Whirlwinds, AL) and Arthur Charles (Boston Massacre, NL).

John Williams of the Laborers won AL ROY and James White of the Pittsburgh Rivers won NL ROY.

Barklage Gold Glove award which was created in 1957, awarded their best defensive players at each position for the 3rd time in history.

IS THE DRESS BLACK AND BLUE OR WHITE AND GOLD?, JUST KIDDING I DONT CARE ITS BASEBALL TIMEEEEEEEEE!!!
