2014 Babbling

[Witlon]

I've had multiple problems with pitching prospects losing movement talent without injury. I just attribute it to my ballpark sucking.

But seriously, Cingrani going from 7 movement to 4 without an injury really sucks.

[LJMets1989]

Well, that sim sucked...

[Kingdom]

Nothing like shooting for a top ten pick again after that hard work. Sigh. Anyone still buying?

[Witlon]

Buying what? Andrew McCutchen? :bush:

This is incredible. #52 Santiago Comas, Reliever, 27 yrs, Philadelphia Phillies - Out of the Park Baseball Report

A 10/10/7 reliever with 10.1 K/9, just 2.1 BB/9, and 7.7 Hits/9 and a .263 BABIP against...somehow has an ERA over 5, because he's allowed more than 2 HR per 9. Seven movement could be better, but come on.

Buying what? Andrew McCutchen? :bush:

Bush like Gavin Rossdale Bush or David Bush?

[HollywoodLeo]

On to .500 and third place, but Germano and Archer lose talent. (Archer's net gain is still good, though)

[Slyder]

Now with the big 3 and Flaherty already signed long term its almost time to see what Speed Racer wants after the next sim.

Batting AVG: .272 (5th)
Homeruns: 71 (6th)
Walks: 190 (14th)
Stolen Bases: 114 (1st)
Runs Scored: 394 (3rd)

Pitching ERA: 3.30 (2nd)
Opponents AVG: .254 (9th)
HRs Allowed: 31 (1st)
Walks Allowed: 194 (12th)
Runs Allowed: 281 (3rd)

Quite happy with my results thus far.

I like how both my second round picks take talent hits on the first sim, one immediately on day one after he's drafted. Now that's some bullshit.

[Kingdom]

[Kingdom]

I've had better luck with late first rounders and second rounders, though, than high picks. Some balancing out.

[HollywoodLeo]

My fourth round pick immediately boosted to a 4.5, but I'm conveniently ignoring that for my rant.

[Kingdom]

We wouldn't expect anything less Leonardo.

Ready to take back your division? I'd appreciate it if you broke the rest of your division in the process so I can sniff the WC

[Porter]

Anaheim would like to stay in first place thank you. Maybe he can wreck San Diego.

[HollywoodLeo]

Switch to 4 man rotation and I move from last place to tied for the WC lead within two sims.
