2029 Random Mumblings

[Kingdom]

Best sim ever!

[Slyder]

8 complete games from my rotation. That is absolutely sick.

3 guys in the top 10 in runs scored needless to say I think my offense hasnt suffered with the tweaking of the settings.

4 pitchers in the top 10 of fewest runners allowed per 9. Great start from everyone, I dont expect Gehring to keep up and I expect that fall off to be picked up by Dexter pitching better.

Batting AVG: .300 (4th)
Homeruns: 15 (16th)
Walks: 74 (1st)
Stolen Bases: 21 (12th)
Runs Scored: 103 (2nd)

Pitching ERA: 3.53 (3rd)
Opponents AVG: .225 (2nd)
HRs Allowed: 11 (T-4th)
Walks Allowed: 22 (1st)
Runs Allowed: 53 (2nd)

Oh ya. Mike McC is riding off into the sunset .

Hi Chief,
I think my time is running out. This will be
my last season as a professional ballplayer.

Michael McCullough

Hopefully this 1 last shot he can get his ring with Minnesota and retires as the most decorated pitcher ever... until Ramirez gets done .

Not counting Josh Beckett.

9-5 sim for Toronto, pretty surprising to me

Homeruns: 21 (5th)
Walks: 36 (24th)
Stolen Bases: 27 (6th)

Opponents AVG: .260 (14th)

Jesus Alvarado is leading the offense with .352 avg, 8 HR, 16 RBI, 1.296 OPS

Felipe Benitez is off to a hot start 3-1 record, 2.00 ERA, 0.83 WHIP with 4 CG's to start the season

Benitez also had a 10 inning CG against KC, with their starter Freddy Grasty going 9.1 IP before the Jays won it in the bottom of the 10th

Not impressive.. .but I'll take it

Haman and Mooreman are mashing the ball... but the rest of the team is starting pretty slow

[Saber]

Romeo Mazur has already pitched two 10 inning outings.

[DiamondDave]

And gotta thank you for Ben Garcia Sabs.. boosted his contact ratings in the first SIM

[Saber]

Above his talent too. Blah.

[Kingdom]

Thank you Saber for the guy hitting .140 off the bench, you're so kind!

[Saber]

I do what I can.

Won World Series with Detroit in 2020...

[Saber]

How the hell can you expect Slyder to click on McC and actually read where it says that? Be reasonable.

Hey Boss,
I will hang up the cleats after this season.
It was a great time, but my family needs me now.

Addition of Crespo in the rotation has not given the improvement I have needed, yet... I believe he will come around... talent boost for an AAA MR should pay dividends when I bring him up to the majors... will have to play around with the bullpen until I get that fine tuned.. it is my biggest weakness right now

Bermejo is back to 10 contact to go with his 10 power.. hopefully he picks it up... Haman is still lights out on offense and the 6 contact power machine, Mooreman, is still powering the ball out of the park... Losoya is still not progressing and performing to his talent... but the trade for Cooney a while back is starting to pay dividends. If he fills out to his talent, he'll be a staple in the lineup for years to come... Geist is cold and needs to warm up to add more punch to the 6 spot in the order.. still impressed with Wickersham, as he was a throw-in in an old trade, but he is a great addition in the 1 spot in the order against righties

ANA and SEA on the schedule coming up... won't be an easy SIM
