Detroit Tigers Dynasty

[Texas Rangers GM]

so far im in the 2nd season..first season I went 88-74 2nd in division but missed out in the playoffs.When I got the team I traded everyone on the orginal roster making over 1 mil.I created myself and played 3B.I had around 40 mil in cap room.I accquired players like Brad Lidge,Matt Cain(cy young winner in season 1 22-4.),Jeff Francis,Joe Mauer,Frank Thomas,Matt Holliday,Ugeth Urbina,Jason Lane,Chone Figgins,Jake Peavy and Jose Reyes.I resigned all them to long term deals.I got both Reyes and Mauer for less then 1 mil a year so I signed them to long 7 yr deals.

Season 1 Batting Order

1.Chone Figgins
2.Jose Reyes
3.Me
4.Frank Thomas
5.Matt Holliday
6.Joe Mauer
7.Omar Infante
8.Jason Lane
9.varied.

I went into the offseason with around 25 mil still avaliable in cap.I got C.C Sabathia to add to my rotation and signed Tino Martinez and Oliver Perez

my pitching staff is currently

1.Jake Peavy
2.Matt Cain
3.C.C Sabathia
4.Oliver Perez
5.Jeremy Bonderman/Chris Capauno

Bullpen
CL Brad Lidge
SU Troy Percival
SU Ugeth Urbina
LRP Matt Mantei
LRP Chris Capuano/Jeremy Bonderman
MRP Steve Karsay
MRP Scott Steinberg

and my starting lineup is

1.Chone Figgins CF (might trade away,deprogressed and is making 3.2 mil a yr)
2.Jose Reyes SS
3.Me 3B
4.Frank Thomas 1B/DH (deprogressed also)
5.Joe Mauer C
6.Matt Holliday LF
7.Jason Lane RF
8.Tino Martinez DH/1B
9.Omar Infante 2B

Bench
CF Jorge Pierda
RF Marcus Thames
C Eddie Perez
LF Brian Hopper
1B Tino Martinez (when facing NL)

Im probably going to call down Hopper and put a 3B or 2B in this spot.I also have some good prospects like Ian Thomas and Jeff Francis(not really considered one now)

Ill inform you as I go along,I think I did good with the talent I had vs now.No trades were forced neither.

[Pittsburgh Pirates GM]

u should trade figgins for either Taveras, or a CF named Carl Erickson...both have done well for me. SB freaks

That's not a dynasty. It's an all-decade team. I'll post my Twins Dynasty in a bit.

I picked up Crisp and Taveras in FA.In the middle of May I had no hitters batting .290 or higher..so I traded for Wright who had like a .345 avg.I sent down Frank Thomas because I moved myself back to 1B with the accquistion of David Wright.In pitching I made ALOT of changes.
