Ontario's Jonathan Warren Named Top PL Manager: Ontario manager Jonathan Warren was selected as the 2018 Patriot League Manager of the Year today.

He was somewhat of a dark horse next to some of the more flashy managers up for the award. Warren, who prefers that everyone call him "Cap" or "Skip," tries to shy away from the limelight in a media-driven world.

"It's really unfair to the guys that busted their humps all year long to put all the focus on me now. They showed up early, put in extra time in the cage, worked on their fielding, consulted with our coaching staff and really made 2018 a highlight in my career."

In fairness to this year's Manager of the Year, Warren certainly played an important part in the Blue Pirates success as he guided them to a second place finish in the Patriot League North and a 96-66 record.
I agree with this my team was 22 win better then last year
Good things grow in Ontario.

I have no control over the in-game Manager of the Year vote. The game chooses 1 per league. Congrats though ;)

I'm testing out a SMF Forum mod that brings a Facebook/GTalk style chat bar to the site at the bottom.

It shows 'Who's Online' on the left end of the bottom bar.

I've been looking for a way to make things easier for GMs to quickly chat with each other while they're both online on the AFBL website.

Oh crap. I have no clue on this. I'll investigate but I'm not sure how to fix.

New file is up to include Ammy Draft picks made since last file and the CO-ID trade.

Reports and Statslab will be updated shortly. I also promise to get the 2018 Postseason MVP poll up today :).

Just to give everyone enough of a heads up... I'm going to release a new file tomorrow morning (~8-10am CT) with Ammy Draft results since this morning's file along with getting Lin (Georgia) and Mike (Pennsylvania) created in the game. And the large amount of players trade from ON-VA :).

Email sent but I'll post here as well in case someone else experiences similar trouble. Try downloading this (http://www.afblbaseball.com/afbl/leaguefile/Players&RetiredDatFiles.zip) and replace the contents with the same named files in your AFBL.lg folder.

If not, let me know and we can get you started with a fresh install of our league!

New file is up that includes Ammy Draft picks since yesterday's file and the 2 recent trades. This also includes 2 of the new owners for PA and IA (Mike and Dale). Reports and Statslab coming soon!

Also, stay tuned for an updated Images Pack. This includes custom caps and jerseys for every minor league team that didn't have a custom jersey already. Thanks to Mike (NJ) for all his hard work!
