Nope.

We finished nine games below our Pythagorean record, despite the best starting pitching and bullpen in the league.

Fuck me.

[Matt]

Batavia was coming for Death Valley.

6-0 sim but due to Seattle's suckiness they get swept by DV and the Scorps hold on by 2 games for the WC spot.

Won 13 of our last 14. We just got hot too late. Now sadly all I did was screw up my draft position by a few picks...should have called Funclown for tanking advice.

Mike is traveling today. Not sure when or if he will check in today.

Pawtucket 4-3.

We took some gambles on resting players especially Tony Cavazos who only played 2 games. lol.

Basically we come into the playoffs healthy.

After 21 seasons and I don't know combined 17 playoff appearances are we actually going to play Jimmy's team??? Not sure if this is good or bad. He's knocked out the number one seed two seasons in a raw. Plus we won 106 games and seems after 105 the game freaks out.

Pawtucket picks 24th in the first round for the FIRST TIME EVER!!!

[Pat]

Decided to play it safe and started my regular hitters in just three of the six games. Also benched #1 and #2 SPs, as well as half my bullpen for the entire week. Came out of it healthy, rested after going 3-3 against Morgantown and Seattle. The move did however likely cost Home Field through the IL Post-Season. Washington finishes the year 102-60, same as the Philadelphia Freedom. However, the Freedom won the series head-to-head and will have the #1 seed.

[BradZ]

No injuries, which was the main objective this week. Don't like that the game completely ignored my 7 day lineups I painstakingly put together. The AI basically took a big dump on those and just threw whatever pitcher it wanted.

[Jistic]

Well....we're toast. Herberholz AND Mejia go down in the same sim, along with Roger Ramirez for good measure. Herberholz hasn't been injured in I can't remember how long. I don't think he's missed a start in the BLB. Still he won the strikeout title again for the 100th straight year. Not bad for a geezer. Mejia is only a few days but that means DV won't have to face either in the 1 game playoff.

We're pretty much done, even if we can somehow beat DV. We're just too beat up. 8-20 September put us in this position though in the first place. No excuses.

Congrats to the Tobs. The wicked witch it dead....for now. What we need is for JJ to make his swan song memorable and go on a tear. But I'm not betting on it.

[umd]

You will still win Jistic.

I ripped that fucker away

and thanks for simming Matt

What is wrong with OOTP? The day this game fixes its rotation/bullpen issues will be a miracle.

Why would anyone set their rotation believing it will be followed? There's no rhyme or reason for a reliever of mine to take a start over my starter who is healthy and ready to go. It's absolutely stupid.

Last time I even bother. Might as well just have the CPU set my lineups and rotation from now on.

[funclown]

Carlos all fired up!

[Carlos]

Carlos all fired up!

Not even excited for the playoffs. My rotation is screwed up and now a key reliever is coming off a poor performance thanks to starting and getting blasted. So there's his confidence.

Just hitting auto. Not wasting my time.

Anyway thank you Matt and Brad for another season. I won't let the machines overshadow your efforts.

Also Henry Rodrigues is now dating the daughters of every woman Pedro Zamarida bedded in his early years at Denver.
