Agency contracts
Sign young prospects to earn a commission every round, and again when they transfer.
Baseball Scout Notes
Run a scouting agency, not a team.
Take requests from clubs, send your scouts to league games, size up players and recommend them in a scout report. Whether you were right is graded by how he plays for his new team.
One report can move your agency's reputation.
A club sends a request with conditions: position (pitcher, catcher, infielder or outfielder), age, a key attribute (for example Power 65+) and a target game rating.
Each round, send your scouts to watch nine-inning league games that are actually simulated.
Contact, power, speed, fielding and pitching are revealed as far as your scout's accuracy allows. Anything still unknown shows as ??.
Recommend the player in a report with a predicted game rating and a grade: C, B, A or S.
Once the club signs him, your report is graded on his average rating over his next 3 games for his new team. Hits raise your reputation and streaks build it faster; the higher the grade, the more a miss costs. When your pick performs, a bonus lands on top.
A 5-season campaign with 3 save slots. Hire and train scouts, and expand your office from level 1 to level 4.
Sign young prospects to earn a commission every round, and again when they transfer.
Three rival scouting agencies bid for the same jobs. The better your reputation, the better your odds.
Offseason and in-season trade windows bring a rush of club requests.
Regional, continental and global leagues play nine-inning games every round. Tied games go to extra innings (up to 12) so there are no draws, with live standings by wins and a champion crowned each season.
Replay every scoring play, extra-inning walk-offs included, on the game screen.
Buy public data licenses or research proprietary metrics. Public data leads everyone to the same conclusions.
When your player drives in 3+ runs in a game or earns a top rating, the newspaper runs a story (one per round). At season's end your standout player gets a story too, and past articles are on Home.
While you watch a game, your players (clients and recommended transfers) are circled in yellow.
