It is hard for me to pass on a guy like Tim Lamb, he seems so developed for being a high school arm. I imagine he can start in High A, and maybe even be AA next year.
yeah but his demand is higher than his entire draft budget he almost certainly couldn't get him. I agree though likely an all time great. hopefully he heads off to college
This series got me to play ootp 23 bc my dad had an extra code. Took over the Angels, traded Ohtani and Isaiah Kiner-Falefa and some prospect for Franciso Lindor. Traded Hunter Renfroe for IKF and a SP prospect who is a 2 star rating but has a potential of 75 stuff. OOTP is surprisingly fun for a game thats basically just a spreadsheet.
Ben Cowan only detriment is that he has short arms. T-Rex joining the tiny silly but athletic Geese from Oakland together with Kris "Ryan Ogawa" Rangel. Who modeled his game after Ogawa who modeled his game after Nolan Ryan. Baseball Inception, Foolish edition.
Huge fan of this! A huge Basque (probably never heard 😅) fan across the Atlantic Ocean following all your content. Ps: I even appeared in at least one OOTP 😬
Gage Jump must've been mad at Nick Starr since he allowed both of Starr's remaining runners to score before striking out the next three back to back to back haha
8:13 if I was the manager I would kill Kennerly. The guy just walked the bases loaded then gave up two RBI on a hit by pitch and another walk and he's swinging at the first pitch he sees??? terrible
I think you need to work on your lineup construction. I know its your series and your playing it, but at a glance it just looks wrong right now with the numbers you have. If Cuvet has a 408 obp and Mears has a 249 obp why is Mears hitting 3rd and Cuvet 4th? Their putting together the same power year. Its draft day. You've had so long to change this. I didn't get to see Baker's underlying numbers so maybe he's having a better year than his baseline numbers suggest, but .215 in the one hole would not cut it for me. I know you don't have a lot to work with, but maybe try either of the .250's who are having ok years in leadoff and see if they stick. Just move people around, even a little bit. Try to find something that works. And for the love of god stop putting your player hitting .179 who strikes out 250 times a year in your top 3 in the order. I don't know how much experience you have with lineup building, or how comfortable you are with it, but I think it's an area of improvement that will have tangible effects on your record. I've seen stuff like that throughout the series so I figure I should point it out so that it might help in the future. I fear the A's under John Fischer might just be cursed and there is no way to save them, but if you want to try, you have to be perfect. ps. love the main channel content, keep it up :)
even though you were doing fairly well, you’re not going to compete for a title this year. don’t be afraid to ship off some guys at the deadline like the O’s did in 2022 (trey mancini and jorge lopez).
I know why you picked the As but whyyy did you pick the As?? It’s gonna take til at least the early 2060s to have a shot at a title. The computer generated players on your future world series team havent even been born yet.
Passing on Sincere Cabbagestalk has gotta be an all time fumble
How did I not notice that the first time???
That name grades out as a 120 on the 20-80 scale
I swear that Castellanos has been in A ball for 6 years
Fax
He’s a bust
he’s never gonna make it with that abysmal strikeout rating
To be fair he was signed when he was 16
Idk why Bailey put him in pro ball so early, he’s barely going to develop and he’ll have to be put on the 40 man soon
sincere cabbagestalk is one of the most insane names I’ve ever seen
Sincere Cabbagestalk? How could you not pick that name?
i don't care what his ratings are, when you see a guy with a name like Sincere Cabbagestalk, you HAVE to draft him. very disappointed.
I’ve drafted a dude based on name alone in The Show.
Boone Slaughter was the name.
Bro is gonna be a Hall of Famer for the Rockies
Sincere Cabbagestalk
26:10 Javian Howard with an all time nickname
Georgia Tech guy has to 🐝 a little weird.
wonder how you pronounce that
Sincere Cabbagestalk might be the greatest auto-generated name I’ve seen, but the pick after him being the Mets drafting CF Juan Soto is also peak
surely THIS is the season
They are gonna go 85-77 and then 70-92 the next season or something
I cant wait until Bailey sells at the deadline for some 3.5 star potential bum that immediately gets traded in the offseason
SURELY
Surely this is a season
Episode 2 of asking Bailey to max his development budget
Episode one of me not liking this comment only to preserve it's niceness
Sincere Cabbagestalk moment
not taking sincere cabbagestalk was a terrible decision
bailey passing on cant miss prospects for high work ethic and high intelligence
SINCERE CABBAGESTALK
holy shit kris “ryan ogawa tim lincecum” rangel
I vote for one pick every year to be someone with a funny name. If the A's can't win anything then they might as well be leading in jersey sales.
I'm with you
breaking: oakland a’s sign 41 year old LJ Hoes
Javian “tf is this” Howard 💀
If only the budget to go over slot were higher, if only it could be adjusted
Fr
can't believe you skipped over literally Sincere Cabbagestalk
sincere cabbagestalk should’ve gone first overall. all time name
Your asking a lot of Andrew Wiggins I mean this guy played basketball his whole life
I cannot believe you sincerely didn't pick Sincere Cabbagestalk.
You had to draft one of the best names I’ve ever seen, Sicncere Cabbagestalk
Gotta trade for Sincere Cabbagestalk
Sincere Cabbagestalk may be the best name in sports history
can't wait for OOTP ep. 24: Bailey covers all his remaining good players in bubble wrap
Sincere Cabbagestalk!!!
I'm just here to upvote every comment that mentions Sincere Cabbagestalk.

Did you see Javian Howard's nickname?
We demand you trade for Cabbagestalk
Kris Rangel looks like a stud, and somehow even shorter than Lincecum and Pedro (5'9" compared to 5'11")
foolish is a rlly cool dude guys
24:45 THE NEW YORK METS PICKED WHOOOOOOO???
Best series to ever hit youtube
No way he just took a 5'9" SP topping out in the mid 90s at second overall...
22:42 I think the plan is to take someone who doesn’t want more than slot here boys!
Boy it's sure nice to watch the Bailey lead Athletics winning big, surely this will keep up through the whole video.
20:52 HE SAID THE LINE
Danny will forever be known as "Danny Kinnerly or Kinn-ER-ly".
Only OOTPer I’ve ever seen that uses star ratings, rather than the 20-80 scale…
Bailey how do you not even MENTION Sincere Cabbagestalk?
Skeete Skeete, goddamn
Are we back?
Were we ever here?
Like chiroprac
back in the mud
im ngl man i'd rather have jerry reinsdorf run my team at this point

I've heard of Basque culture but only because of an ENTIRELY different kind computer game: crusader kings.
Missing the all-time great name of Sincere Cabbagestalk, but Javian Howard might have an inner circle nickname of KikA||A||A||A©
This season will be different, I’m feeling it
Boy that opening day was NOICE
Javian Howard's nickname is an 85 rating
Gage Jump must've been mad at Nick Starr since he allowed both of Starr's remaining runners to score before striking out the next three back to back to back haha
you made a FOOLISH decision taking Rangel over Lamb especially, but also Grider.
I like grider more too, but Rangel is certainly a good player. Ace caliber pitcher if it works out for him
Don't forget Cabbagestalk was there too
would Lamb have even signed? don’t want another Konnor Griffin moment
and Grider is younger with a lower floor and no good personality traits
@@AllenTH-camAccountnot a 2nd overall player tho
What was the nickname of last pitcher you drafted? KikA?A?A?A©
8:13 if I was the manager I would kill Kennerly. The guy just walked the bases loaded then gave up two RBI on a hit by pitch and another walk and he's swinging at the first pitch he sees??? terrible
YOU CAN'T JUST BE UP THERE AND JUST DOING A BALK LIKE THAT
26:11 his nickname is WHAT??
Can someone let me know how to pronounce Howard (the last draft picks) nickname?
we going all the way to the wild card this year 😭
26:08 i'm sorry what is his nickname?
Your team trainer should be flipping burgers this time next season
I think you need to work on your lineup construction. I know its your series and your playing it, but at a glance it just looks wrong right now with the numbers you have.

ps. love the main channel content, keep it up :)
Could a 500 season be on the cards. What a treat we are in for!
love a good completely unpronouncable nickname like Javian Howard's
Can someone pronounce Jaden Howards nickname lollll
Javian Howard has quite the nickname
Rangle is gonna be a stud
I feel like every time he has a player do well for one season they turn around and are horrible for several
And I thought Retro Bowl had crazy names
Aufrichtiger Kohlstängel
Also whats ne nickname of your 5th rounder?
Luis Midstellanos
Too much Cabbagestalk and not enough about the Jays taking a literal CRICKET PLAYER in the first round
We are so back
Come all yee Oakland A’s faithful
what is up with howards nickname??
What was the aversion to Josh Couser?
extremely racist
David “The Durable” Arriaga
Of course you have a great start and then your 2 best players get injured for the season, can’t have anything in Oakland😭
of course the fucking Rockies would pick a guy like Sincere Cabbagestalk lol
Bailey just popping in to let you know its pronounced "Ran-Hell" not Rangle lol
Love ya bud
danny kennerly swinging at the first pitch after tiedemann hits a guy and then walks in a run is inexcusable. benchable offense
glad he got injured tbh
Woop Woop 8
You need to turn down injuries
even though you were doing fairly well, you’re not going to compete for a title this year. don’t be afraid to ship off some guys at the deadline like the O’s did in 2022 (trey mancini and jorge lopez).

26:10 look at this guy’s nickname 💀 dude is definitely related to Elon Musk
Too many injuries
SINCERE CABBAGESTALK
