[Matt]

We haven't had a winning SIM since May. We lost 3 of 4 this week to Seattle. We're pure garbage right now.

[Sharkn20]

Tom Driggs (The undrafted) and C.J. Cohen (Thanks Pat) both had All-Star invitations this week.

7-0 Week against California and NO to open a 10 game lead for the Lager, awesome performance, and now Salazar is back and Cinelli is one SIM away to comeback to the BLB. Keep it going guys, stay healthy.

[Hank]

A losing week, but saw some nice things. JJ Moore is tearing it up lately and it's while batting in the 3-hole where I haven't been able to find anyone who can hit well in that spot.
New acquisitions Cleto (.385, 3HRs) and Robinson (.308, 4HRs) had pretty good weeks. But where Robinson really shined is by getting the biggest laugh of the week as he's demanding a 6-year deal at $12M/year. Oh Robinson, you slay me!

Estes came in relief and played all three OF positions, even at CF. I remember when he was my starting CFer so I was looking over his previous defensive stats and holy shnikes was this guy money at CF:
2010 (MOR) +24.3
2011 (DAL) +35.8
2012 (IND) +24.2
2013 (MAI) +20.6 (as a LFer)

What's more astonishing than his insane defensive ratings is that he put up those numbers with 4 different teams in 4 straight years.
Either he was seen as a highly valuable commodity (which seems to be the case considering the assets traded for him) or he's a big fan of the wives section (Flores can relate).

Looking over his batting and fielding stats, I gotta think Estes has a shot of making the BLB HOF.

In other news, the new uni's for the Montreal Exports are pretty much set. Graphics Jedi, BDub gave his blessing when he said my jersey's were "shitty. But not Indy Clowns shitty".
(Kidding. Thanks for the assists in helping me figure these templates out Bdub!)

I'm now working on the uni's for my farm systems.
Moncton will be my AAA affiliate and as an homage to the franchise's history and wanting to keep BDub's Mohawks logo and uni's in the game, they will remain the Mohawks.

[Pat]

Robinson (.308, 4HRs) had pretty good weeks. But where Robinson really shined is by getting the biggest laugh of the week as he's demanding a 6-year deal at $12M/year. Oh Robinson, you slay me!

He has Very High loyalty and Low greed. I think he'd be willing to negotiate that down. Not surprised he is doing well!

In Seattle, CF C.J. Phillips is an All-Star?!

[funclown]

Whatever small momentum we had was lost this week going 1-5 to teams we probably should of beat. Not much more to do besides develop some pitcher in AAA. Bummer.

[umd]

We should be better. We are not better. I'm confused. Buy or sell...

[funclown]

We should be better. We are not better. I'm confused. Buy or sell...

Lol your confused....right now I'm trying to figure what an actual prospect is in this game. Right now I'm disagreeing with my top 20 list. What is a prospect today?

[PaulC]

In all fairness to the staffs we faced this week. We can't hit for shit!!!!! I hate to think what our record might be if we had any power, if we could hit at all with two outs, if we had the ability to move runners over instead of continually grounding into double plays, or if we wouldn't continually strike out in important situations.

It feels like we should be a lot better. Hard to complain about being one back in the wild card, but man it's annoying to watch this team continually shit themselves when they could put games away.

[mike]

Great week heading into the All Star break, going 5-2 against WIL, Maine, and Capped off by a massive sweep of Toronto.

We welcomed back Jamie O'Hearn back a bit early and he delivered as usual. 51-38 and 2.5 back in the ALE as we head into hitting season.

Jarrod Syversten, Pat Vickers and Jamie O'Hearn will represent the Millers in this years Mid-Season classic, and I'm a little disappointed that CJ Genario or whatever was selected for 3B over Dave Seibert. Didn't think it should have gone that way. Syversten won his 100th career game with the Millers this sim, and on the year is 11-3 with an ERA of 2.33....In his last 9 starts, he's 8-0. Stud.

Should be a fun second half

[umd]

Lol your confused....right now I'm trying to figure what an actual prospect is in this game. Right now I'm disagreeing with my top 20 list. What is a prospect today?

Just not a fan of this version so far. Maybe it'll grow on me. I feel like a lot of tweaks under the hood that I don't understand how to read or may be even a bit buggy.

[Pat]

We lost 3 of 4 this week to Seattle.

Not that it's any excuse but Seattle is a much better team today than we were to open the season. Our winning percentage has gone up every month and with recent call-ups, we actually might not be the worst team in baseball right now.

[Carlos]

The IL is serious about their starters not walking guys.

To highlight this.

Tom Reed, who in his last 5 starts has walked 5 guys in 34 innings, is among the league leaders in walks in the IL.

Amazing.

[Z]

Thanks, Matt.

Fernando Hernandez, an All-Star at age 43!

[Spear]

Not a good SIM for us but we signed DH Ian Ledbetter to hopefully give us a boost.
