NOW Boost Requests

With Unpredictable Progressions now completed for the 2025-2 season, requests for NOW Boosts can be submitted to the Commissioner's Office. Deadline for these requests is 1st Pitch. See the rules details below.

For every NATL non-import season, boosts are available for NOW players that have a 35 rank or lower. Each team may select 1 batter and 1 pitcher per each non-import season. This gives an owner the opportunity for non-import seasons to develop a low ranked prospect or offset an Unpredictable progression that went south. Players are tagged as "NOW Boost" and may not be selected for any other boost the remainder of their career. Historic Franchise Players (HFP's) ARE NOT eligible for boosts.
