SIM #4 COMPLETE - Opening Day

[Jistic]

My top pick Arce' is off to a scorching start. But then again, I've only played 3 games. C'mon Cam let's sim the season!

WOO HOO!

I think I got a little carried away with my strategy settings. 3 of my first 4 starters pitched complete games. My pitching staff should hold up pretty well but my offense has the potential to be horrendous.

I definitely need to tweak those settings before the next sim too. One of my starters threw 140 freaking pitches the other night. Who's my manager, Dusty Baker?

I think you can actually set the pitch counts in the player strategy settings. Might be a good idea since mine for the first 4 games were: 145, 127, 114 and 127

I'm 8th or 9th in the DL for batting average, hits, on base percentage, slugging percentage, and OPS. Thankfully I'm 2nd in homeruns which I'm presuming puts me at 2nd in runs scored.

you absolutely killed my pitching.

My pitching is HORRIBLE. My starters combined ERA is 9.95. Very sad.

thanks partly to my team :)

HA! My guys give up 7 runs per game! Top THAT!

[Jistic]

Ive given up 11 unearned runs, only 7 earned. If we can learn how to field we might have a chance. I have a feeling this crazy bunch of kids are gonna be a roller coaster this year.

[Andrew]

Wow, my team sucks.

2nd most HRs, but last in runs.

Apparently you and Mahoney missed the fine print in your league president contract that stated you weren't allowed to win a game all year.
