Bristol Inks Top 10 Ace Ricky Stanley To Four-Year $116,000,000 Making The Seven-Time All-Star The Highest-Paid Pitcher In League

Longtime Cleveland ace Ricky Stanley (above) inks a massive $116,160,000 year deal with Bristol GM Greg Checovetes in 2051 Free Agency SIM 3.  The deal pays Stanley, the most sought-after free agent starting pitcher in the 2051 off-season, $29,040,000 a season which is now the top paid pitcher in the SIMBL.  Stanley was the #5 overall pick by Cleveland in the 2037 SIMBL Draft and played his first ten seasons with the Brownies. The 32 year-old seven-time All-Star has been one of the most dominant starting pitchers in the Union League for the past decade. He has won 13+ eight times, 15+ wins six times, 17+ times four seasons and 18+ twice with a career-high 19 games in the 2046 season. Stanley adds to the Owls rotation a career 138-103 record with a 3.33 ERA, 85 complete games and 16 shutouts in his 10-year Brownies career.

Notoriously Known Tight Wad Clippers GM Opens Checkbook & Inks Ace SP Leroy Burbach With $25,000,000 Per Year Three-Year Deal

2051 Supplemental Free Agents SP Hirotada Nii & 3B Rocky Revay Nabbed Fast By New York & Chicago Respectively

Former AC Kansas City ace Leroy Burbach (above) surprisingly inked a three-year $75,000,000 deal with notoriously tight-wallet Calgary GM Christian DeMarco in 2051 Free Agency SIM 1.  The former #2 overall pick of the 2040 SIMBL Draft by AC Kansas City is a nine-year veteran and played his first nine seasons with the team that drafted him going 105-88 with a career ERA of 3.48.  He is a three-time All-Star though hasn't made an All-Star squad since the 2047 season. The 31 year-old southpaw went 19-7 with a SL-leading 2.67 ERA and was voted the 2046 SL Hurler Of The Year.  Though some seen his digression, he has won 15+ games in his past three seasons and went 16-11 with a career-high 3.64 ERA last season.  The Clippers, who have had one of the bottom starting rotations in the past four seasons, hope to pair Burbach with veteran ace Jason Floyd and reigning 2050 UL Rookie Of The Year Bill O'Toole to revamp the Calgary pitching rotation and quell the woes in the upcoming 2051 campaign.  Burbach's $25,000,000 a year salary is the highest Clips GM Christian DeMarco has ever spent on a starting pitcher in his 47-year ownership of the SIMBL charter franchise.
