He had a 6 finger glove made so he could change pitching hands. I remember reading that the Rangers were going to let him try at the end of the season, but think the umps told the team no.

Yes, in the video, they said that Venditte has a glove with 6 fingers and 2 webbings, so that he can easily switch hands.

I would like propose raising the Salary Cap for the Expansion Era.
Pros- I need more money
Cons- I need more money

And yes I have my teams set all the way through the eras

I'm with Tom. I believe a lower cap gives all of the franchise combos more of a fighting chance.

My Yankees-Pirates had some difficulty getting up to $125. In order to do it, I have to carry a pinch hitter worth $7m and middle reliever worth $8m. Lots of players in the $1 - $3m range. I couldn't get my roster past $130 even if I tried.

you wont have any problems getting to 125 next 3 seasons, it will be fun trying to get the best players under the cap and a good frustration.
Started my 1st ATG Vll last night, no cap straight live draft. took 2 even being out scored 32 -29 yeah 51 runs in 3 games. crazy no lead is safe.

For the online game for the most part they just added whatever card existed at that moment. So some of our ATG cards have super advanced features such as closer ratings and gb(A) on cards. The closer ratings are supposed to be totally ignored. Not sure all new people are aware of that. But for purposes of playing ATG there is no difference between a rating of N or a rating of 6.
