With De Paula ripping up the Texas league atm, i thought i'd pose the question, what does everybody think are the chances that he gets a September call up this year and with that an opportunity at making the post season roster.

There is precedent with Seager in 15' & Lux in 19' that a player with his prospect status and hit tool would've in the past been considered for a late run at starting in October.

I do appreciate that the level of payroll now would make it far more unlikely, and unlike Corey & Gavin, there probably isn't that ready made spot waiting for him to walk into. But just forecasting for the future, our bench for the playoffs would be pretty righty heavy as currently constructed. I don't think Alex Call is a 100% certainty of making that squad, especially if Kike is healthy as they do a lot of the same things.

Also, i know he hasn't hit aaa yet, but it's not that unusual for guys of his hype level to pretty much skip that altogether. Although, I can see him getting promoted to OKC after the break.

Looking to add a pile more mods to my game. The issue i always have is finding mods that don't make base game & official giants mod vehicles/equipment useless or redundant. I'm forever seeing decent mods that buff out certain categories where there aren't many options, but the prices are usually way too cheap or the equipment is far superior to stuff already in the game.

I'm wanting to add more variety to my playthrough rather than settling on the same Weeders, Rollers, Sprayers etc. But I don't want to cheat the game financially, i still want to work to scale up. If anybody could point me to specific Modders who actually have pretty realistic features/prices and cover items where there aren't a lot of base game options.

In the past i'd just download a specific modders entire library once i know they were pretty well rated and don't cheese the game. I'm on console so i can't edit prices myself nor would i know how to do so realistically.

Change of pace from r/Championship becoming the home of Propaganda and Espionage.

Just interested in the perspective of the rest of the fanbases in this league. Are there any other stories of your club having sold promising/star home grown players to higher levels only for them to fall back to the Championship and play out the majority of their career at similar-ish sized clubs.

In our case at Swansea we've had a fair few which always left me feeling a sense of disappointment and what ifs. Joe Allen spent years at Stoke before getting his last short stint back home before retirement, felt too little too late. Quite a few of our 2018 youth crop (McBurnie, Roberts, James, Rodon) ended up back as Championship regulars not quite cutting it in the Prem. Forever wishing we bought a few of them back.

I get that players move on for the most part. But i find the thought of Academy graduates playing out their careers in the same league depressing.
