2013 REGULAR SEASON SIM 21 Complete - Next SIM Wed 10/07

[Spear]

We suck. 17 straight losses. I've been bringing a lot of new guys up. Tinkering with the lineup. Probably doing too much and not letting the guys get into a rythm. Well see how Sept goes.

On a positive note, Dave Monks is making a case for ROY. .274/.327/.421/.748. 14 HRs. 46 RBI. Rookie of the month in May and June. 8 outfield assists. He's been one of the bright spots on a team with 35 wins.

And here I thought you were trying to compete with me for #1 overall pick.

I'm throwing the book at this team to try to show me something and nothings working. I'm hoping if I leave this lineup alone for a few sims they will show something.

I had a losing streak at atleast 19 games. 17 is bush league!

Bottom feeders!

A player doing this:


.362/.429/.635/1.064 OPS+197 VORP 57.8 WAR 6.8

Wasn't an Allstar this year.

I'm really curious to see where this ranks as an all time season.....

8 games up with 4 against DAV coming up. We had an amazing month, mostly because we can now score some runs. Giving up some of our pitching for hitting seems to have us turning the corner.

Worked for Pawtucket also this season. Pitching is still so important, but you really need both in the version. Now when we get bounced in round one...........................

Lol, so balance wins???

You're light years better than every team. You've had 8-10 players on and off the Top Players list and everyone is locked into cheap deals.

Fucking phenomenal year from one of the game's best.

You act like you're surprised every time you post about dominating a sim. Umd is right, it's not close how much better your team is than everyone else....

Don't choke. That would suck

8 players currently. Total salary around $55m. The ghost of Jistic lives on. I have a shitty catcher asking for $17m.

Tom Estes might be the best free agent signing I ever made.

Incredible all-around player for us this year.

Decided this season instead of building a 'very good' team to just tell the BLB gods to fuck off and see if a whole bunch of stars can win it. Sure we can choke, but not finally having that pressure to 'win one' got that monkey off our back to start the decade off.

This was not the plan going into 2013.

Two funny events this offseason changed that: 1) Spear- "Why not just take Dunn also?" The fact I wasn't even looking to trade for him makes me laugh. Just wanted Reeves. Good idea Spear!!! 2) Anonymous GM - "I just got my scout and he says Lemus isnt very good" LOL wow. Lemus wasn't even suppose to be here this season. He was going to be flipped after the whole Toronto trade, but the GM balked at the last second and we were stuck with our dicks in the wind. Luckily Jimmy always dug SP- Troy Donavon and was able to move him off the books and we ended up with the rare luxury of having two elite lefty starters.

Its been fun. Haven't ran a 7 day lineup all season. Playoffs can still be a crapshoot, but I like our chances. Now lets see if they can finish this?

[Delandis]

So our last chance to do anything within this division starts today. 8 back? Probably not going to catch Washington but we could really use that HFA in a one game playoff against Philly. But as we said before, we've got to worry more about the Mohawks. After going 35-39 in April-June they are 38-16 since July. A hell of a turnaround.

I don't know who gets MOY award, yet. Very good candidates as usual this year.

won't be Murillo this time.
