SIM COMPLETE - 2000 - SIM 3

[Clay]

NEXT SIM: Wednesday

***

Washington - Error 100 with your file. It was either corrupt or you exported from a bad version of the game. You should probably consider deleting your league file and getting a fresh copy before the next SIM.

Maine, Davenport and Carolina - All had 26 at AAA. I had to DFA someone to keep going with the SIM. Check your DFA. And congrats on your Asshat of the SIM honor.

Be sure to get your HOF ballot in if you haven't. Remember, even if you don't like anyone on the list, submit a blank ballot.

I'm going to work on the utility later today. So... draft will start on Wednesday at the latest, but can probably start in the forums whenever the early pickers are ready. No pressure.

4-3, sweep Denver then lose 3 of 4 to Indy. Not a surprise.

Three way for first in the Pilsner. Man, Denver is awful.

Carlos, what's our bet again?

Thanks, Clay.

Carlos, what's our bet again?

First to 100 losses!

But thank goodness for Batavia. Damn. Sorry, Davenport.

[Jake]

First to 100 losses!

What is the wager?

[fsquid]

Damn, Pagan gave up 5 runs to Davenport and none of them were earned.

[Carlos]

What is the wager?

Nah, season started. Can't make bets now. I'm definitely gonna have like 120 losses. I'm gonna keep a list of teams that lost to us.

Los Lunas. Welcome Dallas.

Don Weaver threw a complete game loss in his first career start.

Only one player is hitting above .200. Tommy Keatts of all people, and he's actually having a really good year so far. I'm not even waiting for the eventual collapse. What difference would it make?

[funclown]

Should I book Artie Stewart with 3 home runs every sim? Crazy. He's like Negron that won't strike out as much.

Pawtucket 3-4. We hung in there for the most part. Got another kid up to take his beatings.

Farm stands #10 with Quinn getting his first look in AAA. SP- Tom V won't be to far behind him.

[Carlos]

Roch Larivee is bringing it in AA. Tommy Potter is bringing it more in AAA and won a Coalition POTM Award for April.

My only concern is seeing my AAA infielders take injuries. First DeBenedetti and now Zarco. Hopefully Armstrong stays healthy. All of them are hitting well.

Gotta clean up the A ball mess. But liking what my high minors are doing so far with some exceptions. Edwin Parra got a bump and took that to mean he should pitch like garbage. I wonder if he's the next player that gets a weird ratings bump that means nothing.

That happens to one player each off season for me and each of those guys ends up being worse and then taking a BIG ratings drop. Such a tease.

Next years #1 pick appears to be a real dog fight!!!! Which team will hit that two game winning streak first!!!!???

Don't count me out. My butt is still red from the spanking we took this week.

Lol, nah. Whats going on is special right now. Not sure I've seen a race like this before. Not sure I've ever seen 1.8 runs a game?

This is EPIC.

Re-sim.

[Carlos]

Somehow, at 0-4, Ernie Brummet is fourth among DL pitchers with a 0.7 WAR.

He makes up nearly half our win total. Best free agent signing of the off season.


That Willie Gomez (and 2nd round pick) for Ole Mens trade is looking like a wreck on both sides. Mens is pitching like crap for Pawtucket and we lost Gomez for the season two games into his year.

Maybe the 2nd round pick can be one of those Dana Scott type guys that has amazing ratings but never hits well. *crosses fingers*

[Spectre]

Solid sim- 2/3 from Los Lunas and 3/4 from New Orleans.
