2008 Random Ramblings

[Dry1313]

Hey Crazy, you ever edit my rosters and such? I've sent you changes a bunch of times, but OOTP still has a non-edited roster. What's up?

Thanks guys

I just wanted a slightly different focus than the trades (which always get judged) and the superstars in the FA pool

[General]

Turdtacular sim, though my boy Ruddy Yan is a beast.

[DiamondDave]

Terrible first SIM for the Brewers.... lost once to the Closer I just traded for..... my best pitcher ERA wise is the one I am trading away.... Sainz is hurt for 8 weeks.... Bobby Witt is not pitching like the uberstud he should be....

[General]

My closer lost 2 games, Dave. You've got NOTHING on that.

[DiamondDave]

ditto... exactly... 2 BS and 2 losses as a result from my closer (well, at least he's my closer til the trade goes thru)

[DiamondDave]

Savannah with a HUGE start to the season. Can starting off 9-1 ever have anything really negative to report. WOW. Good SIM mission. Team is looking good.

As for the player of the week choice this time.... Players of the week from the both the AL and the NL that only had 4 RBI??? I'm a little skeptical on that one. Granted the BA was nice in both cases and 2 HR from Francouer, but I think they could have easily had someone else as the POW. Hell, in SO many cases we see huge BA's in the first few weeks.

let me add Cecil Feilder in the POW he had a huge week. No love for Las Vegas.

Eckstein has 11 RBI and 2 jacks! I don't imagine that pace will continue.

[DiamondDave]

As I said in my article.. a hidden gem

[Jamoo]

I knew it was a decent signing, especially at $2M, but I can't see him keeping it up.

[Porter]

I had Andre Dawson with .375, 4 HRs and 13 RBIs.

6-4 sim
2-2 vs SEA
1-2 vs ANA
3-0 vs LV

Pitching got blasted because of April 8-9
Seattle 28, Vancouver 26 in 2 games

Pascual Moreno increases his Stuff Talent from 8 to 9 .
Pascual Moreno increases his Control Talent from 9 to 10 .

Moreno should have never left, hes going to be my Ace if he can improve his crappy 7.20 ERA. The offense is already better with Spada, Guillen and Rivera in the lineup. Spada has a .390 OBP to start.

I offered him better, he just didn't like me.

[DiamondDave]

Who does??
