    you cannot complain. I just traded for gary shefifeld, and he s%*$ the bed on the first sim. As did Josh Barfield, WHO IS ONLY 24 and was mortally wounded last sim as well. I will schedule their funerals within the week.

    He can complain, it's Reyes and Carrillo
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    except jose reyes and cesar carrillo are 23, and were better than josh barfield wouldve ever hoped to be? carrillo is still pretty decent admittedly, but if reyes goes down to that 6 contact... peeeeeeeaaaaace.

    It seems quite a few young players (less than 28) have lost talent that is already developed.

    I was a bit disappointed w/ my teams first sim, but I think we can get things back on track.

    I was pleased with my teams first sim but I'm still new to this.

    Best record in baseball through 2 sims... Peavy and Marshall have been the truth. Peterson and Wood, ok... Pettitte is about to lose his rotation spot with one more bad sim... bullpen has been ok...

    Francoeur needs to start hitting home runs and driving in runs from that 4 spot...

    So far (KNOCK ON WOOD!!!) I've done really well with talent, guys gaining potential (Huber 8 to 10 power) and also guys gaining points here and there in actuals.

    Hey,

    David Wright is really ripping the league up with his .719 OPS. How is Pat Burrell doing? Thats what I thought.

    Re: 2007 Random Ramblings!

    Yeah...you guys are jumping on something that really isn't a huge issue...the league is jacked, so a guy or two losing talent they wouldn't have isn't a surprise...you need to understand that normally the shit guys who lose talent are actually good guys.

    Anyway, AL East road warriors! 15-3...

    Batting AVG: .269 (6th)
    Homeruns: 47 (11th)
    Walks: 126 (13th)
    Stolen Bases: 17 (28th)
    Runs Scored: 200 (13th)

    Pitching ERA: 4.18 (9th)
    Opponents AVG: .243 (4th)
    HRs Allowed: 34 (3rd)
    Walks Allowed: 111 (T-6th)
    Runs Allowed: 173 (5th)

    Great Pitching, Good Hitting, 1st place by a half of a game, and things look good.

    But it's more than a guy or two. it seems like a lot of teams are having a guy or two every sim, and it's not just any old guy losing talent, it's good, starting major league players. it screwed my entire team outlook this season, i've had to make trades or look to make trades i really didn't want to.
