2024 Regular Season SIM 25 Complete - Next SIM Tuesday 1/2

I have a weird Baltimore vs. Maine feeling.

As long as we face anybody but Washington, we’ve got a small chance.

We’ve had some bogey teams over the years but I’ve never seen such consistent dismantling of our team like Washington has done this year.

Any team that beats DC will be a huge upset.

And it won’t be us.

I wish I had called-up J.D. Fazlic from the start.
He's leading all rookies in nearly every offensive category despite only have played 123 games. (VOTE FAZLIC!)
With a full season, he would have easily hit 30+ HR's. With only 6 games left, it's doubtful he'll hit that mark.
Still, we've been really pleased with how he's performed this year. Especially since he was able to perform in the clean-up spot - which we've been trying to fill since Ledbetter.

Dusty Filar has also hit very well since being called-up mid-August when Huang was traded.

Dusty Filar loves hitting in California!

And... thanks for sweeping us... Our draft stock really appreciates it!

You never now... KC looked unbeatable last year!

Hot Rod Sedivec is having one of the best five-tool seasons I can remember.

.358 batting average. Best in baseball.
39 doubles, 5 triples, 28 home runs, .208 ISO. Good power.
22 steals. Nice wheels.
11.1 ZR and 1.041 defensive efficiency in center field. Great glove!
8 outfield assists. Splendid arm!

I still think he's on BLB steroids...

Only once has he ever batted over 0.300, only twice has he slugged over 0450, his ratings are a very pedestrian 5/5/5/4/5, and his Errors is a 4...

All of this would lead you to believe he shouldn't put those kind of numbers up Clay... I mean Z!

Pretty sure he's much better than those listed ratings....

He wasn’t in all his other stops...

[Delandis]

Is there a way to make sure starting pitchers don't pitch?

[Delandis]

is the bench player option effective?

[Pat]

is the bench player option effective?

Yes. Use it all the time.

I put the SP at emergency SP, bench for 7 days. He won’t pitch.

[PaulC]

He wasn’t in all his other stops...

My thoughts exactly... It does at to the realism though... It's nice to know that ratings aren't always everything.

[PaulC]

Yes. Use it all the time.

Same here... Works like a charm every time.
