SIM COMPLETE - 1998 - SIM 25

That little anecdote is actually a really good introduction to the workings of this league for a new owner. Takeaway: If Clay's team does not win, we change the rules so that it does. Come to terms with that and you will be a lot less frustrated with the perennial "also-ran" franchise that you just inherited.

I wish you luck in our yearly battle for second place!

Cute, but AnStu was the Commish during the Lonnie Coleman Affair.

I thought it was common knowledge that OOTP ignores how you set up your bullpen and just goes with whoever the healthiest highest rated pitcher is.

So, even if you were to put your top rated MR in the #4 slot, he'd still get more action than the guy you slotted #1... and the only way to fix it is to get the higher rated pitcher off your roster.

Very proud of my squad this year. My owner expected .500 ball and we definitely overperformed. We'd still need to play our hearts out to make the playoffs which probably won't happen. Kinsey's comeback year has to be of the best bounce back years in history. Win or lose, its gonna be an exciting last sim. I'm optimistic about my teams future.

Kinsey is a good story, but the Poling bounceback in PHI is the story. He was ESPN's Sunday Conversation last weekend.

Before you write that book, I think you should focus on implementing a BLB version of Retrosheet.

That would be cool. We do have the game logs. If only the Utility saved them.

Well, it probably does but maybe it's disabled because it takes up too much space?

I'd be open to starting a site outside SGN that would keep those files and find a way to make a BLB version of retrosheet. It's too bad we don't have game logs from the beginning. I wish.
