If he actually did that, I take back my like. And my post.

9-5 sim for the twins 4 players annoyed with their playing time but when you have one of the top 5 offenses who do you bench? One really gets my ire though...
I'd like to complain about my playing time, I think I am a pretty good player. So why am I not a regular in your lineups?

Seriously? Hitting .167 with an ops of .575 and he feels he should be playing more? He's lucky I don't just kick his stupid keyster out the door and sign a guy off free agency. They couldn't possibly do worse than he has. At least Corcuera, Heikichi, and Alonso are performing to merit me to even think about it.

What does this mean?

Fidel Tavares seems to have taken his game to the next level!

It means you hit the jackpot since it wasn't wasted on a 1.0 guy. Check out his current ratings boss.

Holy Crap he might actually be worth something if he can maintain that contact.

He's now Ichiro. And he'll likely have those ratings for a good bit too. It's like OOTP's version of instant HGH.

His actuals improved but his talent didn't, is he going to revert?

Woot HGH.

They'll eventually revert unless the talent boosts.

[Providence A's]

Right. That's why I said check out his current ratings. The "Joe Blow has taken his game to the next level" isn't related to talent. It's a boost to the player's current ratings. It's still player development, just not what usually shows up there. Ideally, it would happen to players like this:

#38 Joseph "Jitters" Downing, Leftfield, 25 yrs, Milwaukee Brewers - Out of the Park Baseball Report

Players that are close to losing spec status or already have and never quite filled out. It doesn't usually work out that way though.

Hopefully this serves as an omen.

Or it could do the opposite. I had it happen to my catcher...then he lost talent and fell to that level eventually.

#48 Kyameron "Booger" Hikaru, Catcher, 25 yrs, Chicago (N) Cubs - Out of the Park Baseball Report

His contact talent was 7 and his power was 8 or 9. He was above those after the "next level" and then lost talent for no reason...fell to the new levels. My 23 or 24 year-old (at the time) catcher loses talent for no reason, but a 40 year old catcher is like the fucking terminator. lol. Go figure.

Can I just play 1-run, extra inning, and games against LHP?

Record vs LHP: 14 Wins, 5 Losses


Record vs RHP: 15 Wins, 21 Losses

1-2 vs Minnesota that sim.... the one win... Winnans BEAT Amador!

So are you changing Charlie Sheen's annoying catchphrase to "Winnans"
