On this episode, TTO is joined by Tom Cunningham to discuss his preferred methods for building teams (hint: prospects!) and gives a ton of great tips for listeners about what to look for as they endeavor to build a champion squad. We touch on the latest MLB draftees (actually talking about the players this time!) and how they compare to prospects already playing pro ball. We wrap, of course, with some stories about the best things we saw this week.
TTO reflects on the production of the first round of the 2019 MLB draft and takes several listener questions. We asked for questions and you delivered!
TTO takes some listener questions and we also review some discussions on Scoresheet Talk forum (Yahoo Group ss-talk) about luck balancing and how the simulation does and how it should work. Tune in for all that plus the best things we saw since the last pod!
TTO takes a listener question about evaluating their team and discusses the advice in the latest emails from Scoresheet about when it is time to start making drastic changes to your team. Is it time to panic? Tune in to find out how to take stock of your team in the early part of the season, and listen to us chat about the best things we saw this week and how we can connect food and musical theater.
TTO goes through a new plan for managing our Scoresheet teams, checks in on a couple of them, and banters about the changes in how baseball is played and how it impacts a simulated fantasy game. We talk through how a simulation might best adjust and adapt to certain types of outcomes occuring far less often, and we wrap with the best things we saw this week.Leagues we discuss:http://www.scoresheet.com/FOR_WWW/BL_Kings.htmhttp://www.scoresheet.com/FOR_WWW/BL_DwMurphy.htmVideos mentioned:https://www.mlb.com/news/bryce-harper-first-phillies-homer

The TTO podcast this week features a discussion about the release of the 2019 Scoresheet player list, the defensive ratings system, a few specific examples of how the defensive ratings were assigned, and some big picture thoughts on the future of Scoresheet.Many of our topics were informed by, inspired by, or related to posts on the Scoresheet Talk Yahoo! Group.

The Three True Outcomes--Ben, Ian, and Jared--return for 2019 to talk about rebooting the podcast. We return after over a year off with many thanks to Rob McQuown of BP for his support and encouragement. We hope to rekindle some old connections and make new ones as we branch out from talking about Scoresheet exclusively. We're going to talk primarily about Scoresheet, but also about other related topics. We hope our first episode of 2019 finds everyone well and we look forward to hearing from you!
Missing baseball already? This episode will help at least as much as thumbing through old issues of Baseball Digest. After a four month break, TTO shakes off none of the rust and talks life, Scoresheet, and everything in between.We recorded this podcast a week before the World Series, but we saw our shadow when we came out to record, so it took a few weeks to get the episode uploaded. Feel free to add that to your ever-growing list of complaints.
Breaking our self-imposed semi-hiatus to focus on one of the highlights of the Scoresheet calendar: the 40th round.
The Three True Outcomes podcast is back to chat about the state of the podcast, the state of the game, and how both impact (or don't impact) Scoresheet.
The Outcomes take listener questions, discuss some of "their guys," and talk WBC.
