Or being an idiot, whichever works

All I can say is: I trade away Scott Linebrink...and he preforms well?!? He always sucks in sim leagues. Why does he do well only when I get rid of him?

[Kingdom]

Eh, he's a closer, he's not out there for extended periods of time to get smushed on.

[ljshorty89]

I guess. But:

TPSL:
Year 1- 6-2, 4.42 ERA
Year 2- 9-6, 7.64 ERA
Year 3- 8-6, 5.26 ERA

SBSL:
Year 1- 9-13, 5.63 ERA

[Kingdom]

Look on the brightside, he lost a rating point -gasp-

[ljshorty89]

Lol, I don't regret it. Anibal Sanchez is going to be awesome!

[ljshorty89]

Like I said, he can do as well as he wants. Anibal "Dirty" Sanchez will be a major league starter for years and years!

[HollywoodLeo]

You probably got the better end of the deal, but I needed bullpen help and I'm deep in pitching prospects so I can afford to lose him. (and Jeffress)

[Kingdom]

I'm deep in kicking .....nevermind.


My team will hit 50-60 total homeruns on the year. EAT MY ****ING SPEED *****NUTS.

[HollywoodLeo]

5-5 sim, but I'm still in first

Brad Eldred is on fire

[NYgiantsfan5689]

7-3, catching up with the leader!

Vlad is SUCKING, .197 average, 0 HR's, and 17 K's (which is bad for a 9 contact, 10 power, and 8 avoid K's)

Batting AVG: .279 (5th) - nice, I'd like this to increase a bit though
Homeruns: 13 (T-28th) - Vlad needs to pick it up, this is ridiculous
Walks: 43 (29th)
Stolen Bases: 33 (T-1st) - as it should be, I have a ton of speed
Runs Scored: 101 (T-9th)

Pitching ERA: 3.55 (8th) - the starters are doin a great job
Opponents AVG: .275 (27th)
HRs Allowed: 12 (3rd)
Walks Allowed: 56 (T-13th)
Runs Allowed: 82 (9th)

Kiko Calero is a BEAST. After a terrible season debut, he hasn't allowed a run in 9 save opportunities (and he's converted them all).

[CrazyEights]

Well... my team is built on Starting Pitching. That's obvious, because my hitters are all asleep. lol I knew they overachieved in the first sim, but you would think they could score at least a run or two every now and then. Even a blind squirrel... oh nevermind. lol The Breakers have fallen behind...ummmmm... a pack of sled dogs. lol

Batting AVG: .271 (11th)
Homeruns: 8 (T-20th)
Walks: 27 (T-17th)
Stolen Bases: 9 (T-20th)
Runs Scored: 53 (T-11th)

Pitching ERA: 3.24 (6th)
Opponents AVG: .267 (17th)
HRs Allowed: 6 (5th)
Walks Allowed: 24 (5th)
Runs Allowed: 38 (T-5th)

Even a blind squirrel... oh nevermind. lol

Brad Eldred is en fuego, but Todd Linden is asleep.
