2011 REGULAR SEASON SIM 20 Complete - Next SIM Tues 05/12

Stop Carlos. Funclown won a title. He knows everything. He's finally getting it.

Financials: Looks as if we be able to expand another 1000 seats for a second in as many years. This will complete our whopping 22 million renovation project that started at the end of 2009 season. What is the max capacity our stadiums are allowed in this league?

Deadline to send stadium mods is the final SIM of Free Agency. Changes must be processed before Spring Training.

A few notes on some ground rules for stadium mods:

- All Stadium Changes come from CASH. If you don't have the CASH, you can't make the changes.
- Mods take place between the beginning of the off-season and the deadline 0f ST.
- A team may only add seats 1,000 units at a time.
- Seats can only be added every 3rd season (2 full seasons between adding seats)
- Tiered pricing will now be used for adding capacity. $5.0 per 1,000 seats up to 40,000. Anything above 40,000 in capacity will be $10.0 per 1,000 seats.
- No stadium will have a capacity greater than 45,000

Dude this is insane. It is like injuries are contagious for us this year.

We've always had one team a season that the game seems to pick on. If you look at the injury log per team there are a lot of teams that are as long or longer than you, but they are getting small injures. Those three long ones are what set you apart. Sorry man.

Is it possible to increase the stadium size in SP?? Or is a special BLB feature only? :)

You have to be in commish-mode.

Oh I see! Thanks :) I am not going to do it then. I am happy being the GM only

(66-58; 2nd in Porter, 8 GB)

The Week
2-4 and we come back to earth. We struggled offensively against Indy but looked decent enough (even though we last 2 of 3) against Dallas.

The Good: Todd Taylor and Alejandro Ruedas have been as good as any other 1-2 in the league. Todd Taylor is currently on a 13-game undefeated streak going 10-0 with a 2.50 ERA, 83 K, 17 BB in those 13 games. Over that same period, Alejandro Ruedas has gone 8-3 with a 2.55 ERA, 69K, 12 BB, and a sizzling .99 WHIP. If we make the playoffs, we have these two men to thank.

The Bad:Looks like our string of injuries isn't over. We pick up 3 more injuries with Tara Tanaka(1B/OF) out 2 weeks with an intercostal strain, Quincy Lacombe(SP) out a couple days with forearm tendonitis, and Kunihiro Inouye (OF) with a diagnosis pending. This is the theme for us this season but I commend the guys for gutting through it all and still having us in a position to be in the playoffs.

Other News: Michael Poppino (SP) is another interesting guy for us. He was a 6th round pick back in 2009, but he's been just getting better and better. He was selected to the AA All-Star Game this year. He's upped his velocity to hit 100MPH and has a lot of potential.

I'm hoping we got our own Adan Neubauer here.

Next Week:

We bring those Denver bats made to succeed in Baltimore before we head to Syracuse to close out interleague play this year.

My wife just kicked me off the TV to do a P90X workout. She told me to go do my "baseball stuff" on the computer. She loves the nerd in me.
