    Must EVERY starter on my team lose contact talent this season?

    my team is doing a lot right, but they're not winning. the pitching numbers aren't horrible (outside of Paez), but somehow they're last in the league

    The hitting isn't bad either. Braun has really picked it up the last 2 sims (player of the month) and Henry and Wood have been solid. Said is hitting .367 in the leadoff hole and has 32 stolen bases.

    Figuerdo comes back this sim too, so hopefully he is an improvement over Kottaras

    I should just turn injuries up to very high, or whatever the highest setting in OOTP6.5 is, so GMs who can't handle using their depth to compete will fall into last. Aka the lazy ones. Because this league has a lot of talent, and there's a lot of minor league depth according to everyone...

    Id rather have the fringe spect than my starting DH and Bowden but. I suffered much more injuries to just Daniel Saunders in S3SL. So it goes in phases. Im personally glad my namesake got hurt. He has to be the most baffling S3F draftee to date. #2 rated overall pitcher (Slyder's 8-10-10 talent is better).

    Marmol and Lobstein have been dominant. But the rest of the staff blows corn nuts.

    a crappy 6 - 10 sim. hopefully, they do better after the draft. I might have to send Hirsh to the pen or down as he seems to have forgotten how to pitch despite no loss in ratings

    Batting AVG: .285 (5th)
    Homeruns: 47 (T-22nd)
    Walks: 183 (4th)
    Stolen Bases: 72 (7th)
    Runs Scored: 334 (3rd)

    Pitching ERA: 4.92 (20th)
    Opponents AVG: .276 (17th)
    HRs Allowed: 39 (6th)
    Walks Allowed: 167 (18th)
    Runs Allowed: 291 (19th)

    pitching needs to improve and homers need to go up on the offensive side. Pujols with only 4 homes despite a 10 power. We've still got a 2.5 game lead though.

    Prov, If Lobstein wasn't 8-0 and Marmol didn't have a 0.00 ERA or the fact that they are 9-3 in 1 run games.

    We would be 6 games back maybe much more.

    Lobstein has to go 8 innings to have a chance to win.
