Thanks to the weird surges resulting in a winning record, ownership is relatively happy with me at the end of the season. New goals are:
Play .500 ball, Upgrade 2B, Increase team attendance from 18340 to 27600 per game, reach playoffs in next 2 seasons.
The first two are definitely achievable, I give myself low odds on the second two.
Our budget has been increased to $6,000,000, with an expected player payroll allowance of $4,600,000. In even better news, my contract as the mets GM was given a 3 year extension at $60,000 per year. I didn’t turn off the option to be fired, so hopefully this is a good sign that I’ll avoid that naturally.
