Fantasy Baseball Management: Simyard.com Tweet This Post

May 18th, 2009 by Ceetar in Baseball

I discussed this last year, but it’s worth mentioning again. I play this game on line called Simyard. It’s similar to fantasy baseball, except it’s more of a management simulation. You get a team full of players with various stats, not real MLB players, and then you set up a lineup and rotation and play them against other teams.

Then there is the option of leagues. You can join a league with other managers and go through the whole process of building a team like a GM would, signing new players from free agents, the minor leagues, or other teams. Each month, which equates to a baseball year, you play a full schedule of 162 games and follow that up with however many rounds of playoffs your league is set up for. You can build a stadium, set up seating prices, and earn money towards paying players and ultimately becoming one of the dominant franchises. It’s a close-knit and friendly place, and the owner is actively involved and even runs a team of his own. (of course, it’s a crappy team..) We have an irc channel on coldfront where we hang out.
