2021 BS Ramblings

[mackjd]

My pitching was doing a decent job caring my awful hitting, well until the bullpen started throwing underhanded.

[NYgiantsfan5689]

Peter Pooler seems to have lost some bat speed, resulting in less contact...
Peter Pooler has lost some power...
Peter Pooler plate discipline seems to have faded...

Stewie Griffin's control seems to have taken a bump...



my future #2 starter just lost almost all his control, and pooler is relegated to the bench permenantly (if he wasn't already). o well. not the end of the world


in other news, my bullpen is doing terrible. Anybody know a way that I can get Griffin as many saves as possible and keep other guys in the pen from stealing saves from him? Like why does Alvarez, Gratton, etc have 2 or 3 saves? I want Griffin in on those situations

Porter was right, Firesale beginning June 1, see my block for details

[Porter]

Bring it OOTP. Try and take out all my starting pitchers. Go Ahead. We are still 31-24, 2 back of Toronto, 3 back of the Empire.

Batting AVG: .251 (27th)
Homeruns: 41 (24th)
Walks: 172 (21st)
Stolen Bases: 105 (3rd)
Runs Scored: 232 (27th)

Pitching ERA: 3.69 (2nd)
Opponents AVG: .243 (2nd)
HRs Allowed: 47 (12th)
Walks Allowed: 156 (2nd)
Runs Allowed: 219 (1st)

I like how the whole offense is doing worse than last season (except Villacorta).

[Porter]

How does that explain the 2nd best record in the majors?

I'm not just playing the NL West.

Any rate, I'm still not getting my hopes up until another sim or two.

San Deigo is 14-4 vs the division, 18-19 vs everyone else.

San Deigo is 14-4 vs the division, 18-19 vs everyone else.

That was posted before this sim.

[Porter]

That was posted before this sim.

oh well.

Rick Dempsey is imploding before my very eyes.
The Million Dollar Man paid him off.

[Halladay_is_God]

I got dropped big time, 3rd worse team in the league now

the only good thing to happen this sim for Boston

Mikel Huynh increased his bat control, resulting in more contact!
Mikel Huynh has gained more power!

contact from 7 to 9, and power from 4 to 6
talent now is at 9-10-6-7-10
ratings are 5-7-3-5-10
4.0 star prospect in AAA, better than the 1st round pick for Boston Roy Yoho (6-8-6 talent, took a hit to stuff last season)

[bjd2933]

In the long run, it won't look as good, but Ricker is making the schauer trade look pretty decent... He's beasting it up.

[Kingdom]

My only legit power hitter got hurt. Rough.
At least, um, Bobby Brown has stepped up? Lmao. Booby is going to have to start then

[ljshorty89]

Maybe I overpaid, but...

Thursday 4/13/2021 :
James McCaulley has 6 RBI against Toronto.

Monday 5/29/2021 :
James McCaulley has 5 RBI against Toronto.

Overall: .304 BA, 3 HR, 23 RBI in 35 games.

[Doppelgänger]

This team might be closer than I thought they were.

Anyone got an answer for my closer question I posed above?

[Foster]

Anyone got an answer for my closer question I posed above?

Maybe, check out Houston.
