Regular readers here will recall that I enjoy the computer game Out Of The Park.  Since it's a game and I'm not hurting anyone, I abuse some of its features terribly.  In particular, there is often no sense of there being 24 hours in a day.  So, as GM in the game, my typical style is to do a top-to-bottom assessment of every level of my franchise's farm system and 40-man on the first day of the off-season, then I use the trading interface to sell off every questionable asset that has trade value, in exchange for players who fit my preferences better.  All this in one day of game-time.

Normally I feel as though a dozen trades in one day is a serious betrayal of reality.

Now I feel fine.  Even if yesterday was the trade deadline, not the first day after the World Series, I have confirmation that it can be done. 

I can't help chuckling.  Sometimes we say a player is putting up video-game numbers.  Yesterday was a video-game day for our GM.
