2010 Random Rumblings

[Kingdom]

Keep in mind we're only 15 games in, and pitching is never sharp in april. Batting averages will probably go down.

You're never sharp in April, *****.

[mntwinsfan]

Can I please have more injuries!!! Only SEVEN players down the first sim. Is the injury level set to high?

[browntown653]

Uh, aside from DeJesus who's out a week you didn't have everyone important get hurt.

[mntwinsfan]

Garza is still out. Just the principal of all the injuries.

[Providence A's]

yea, it's only the first sim, but this shit better balance out...offense is out of control after 1 sim. For example, my team average is .280...good for 19th whereas Cleveland led TSSL with a .283 average this season.

[General]

It'll average out. Same thing happened with me in SBSL. A-Rod was on pace for 250+ RBI and Dunn was gonna hit 125 HRs.

[Providence A's]

oh, I know...I just don't remember it being like that last season here and I know Nick changed the totals to improve the hitting...

My first sim as Atlanta GM:

The good:
Nathan Vineyard seems to have improved his pure stuff!
Nathan Vineyard is hitting his spots better, his command improved!
Wow. All of a sudden he's my 5th best prospect.

The bad:
don't even bother. just skip to the ugly.

The Ugly:
Batting AVG: .235 (30th)
Homeruns: 19 (27th)
Walks: 95 (T-20th)
Stolen Bases: 15 (25th)
Runs Scored: 111 (T-28th)

Pitching ERA: 5.74 (20th)
Opponents AVG: .304 (21st)
HRs Allowed: 32 (22nd)
Walks Allowed: 118 (27th)
Runs Allowed: 171 (22nd)
That makes me want to throw up all over my digital clubhouse.

O well. I guess that's what rebuilding is all about!

[General]

Very unfun first couple of sims for TB. The acquisitions (Snell, Peavy, mcCann) are doing good, but D. Young, J. Morneau lost talent (****!) and the regulars aren't performing.

[Doppelgänger]

Braun and Vladdy are carrying my offense. Braun already with 29 rbis! anyone want Vlad? He is dominating this year.

[browntown653]

Now that's more like it...Gallardo and Lackey pitching well

[NYgiantsfan5689]

oh, I know...I just don't remember it being like that last season here and I know Nick changed the totals to improve the hitting...

Maybe you guys could like transfer some of your hitting to me.....it's great when guys with 8 contact like Brayan Pena, Yunel Escobar, Coco Crisp, and Casey Kotchman are hitting .237, .204, .223, and .237 respectively. Just lovely. I don't really see where the hitting is off the charts on that one......

[Kingdom]

Upton, Wood, Theriot, McPherson, Kendrick all hitting over .300
Infield rockdom!

Hunter hitting a robust .344
He's available kiddos.

The best part of my season so far is Clayton Tanner gaining talent... two 10-10-10 talent pitchers in my rotation now.

After having to pay 5.5 mil to keep him, can't say I'm not glad that Nick Johnson thinks he's Mark McGwire all of a sudden.

Bobby Abreu's return to the bench is inevitable. Unfortunately... I may just release him, he's ****ing useless.

[Porter]

I would like to know how my pitching staff is that horrible?

Some explain that to me. My offense might go on strike soon.
