SIM COMPLETE - 1986 - Regular Season 2

[Clay]

Bizarre glitchy stuff this week... for no reason and despite using my 7-day lineup... it tried to start Hinchy in back to back days... and it started Lukies over Martinez in 5 of 6 games. That's totally jacked.

Not saying it would have mattered... but it sucks.

2-4 (as expected).

Did anyone else have issues with their Starters throwing back-to-back days? Weird.

On the plus side, it means I get Magness and Arrendondo 1-2 @ Washington.

[Matt]

Geez another 1-5 sim...now 2-10. Sad thing is the starting pitching is playing well. Nobody is hitting the ball and the relievers can't pitch.

We needed to make some off season hitting changes and we didn't, now we suffer!

Gremades is turning into nothing more than a bench bat. It's fucking embarrassing that he hasn't driven in 100 runs since 1982. 2 RBI through 2 sims is fucking pathetic.

[Ryan]

Maybe you should have added him to the Abe deal.

I wouldn't worry though, he'll be fine. Hell, Miller's hitting a buck something, and he's gonna be all world this year. Just takes time.

Abe is making me sadface. Especially after the stunt that Gonzo pulled.

Can I have him back?

Seriously, I do feel bad about him getting hurt. Contrary to what some of the others thought, I thought he would do a fine job for you. I think he still will, to be honest.

Well, so far my strategy for this season (rely on the bullpen early and often) sucks like a Hoover. Gave up the lead late in the game 3 times this week, resulting in a 1 - 5 sim.

Finally coerced 1B Vance Miller to sign a reasonable contract extension...Possibly his last one. Less than a month ago he wanted $14M x 3 yrs. I waited him out and got it down to roughly $3M x 3 yrs, which is still a little more than I wanted. But I'll take it.

Big, early series coming up against the Dinos.

[Carlos]

How my team and it's ridiculous ERA is 5-7 is beyond me.

You are crazy. .380? Bench bat. Get a grip man.

2 RBI is, like I said, pathetic. He needs to get 100+.

We've been telling you he sucks... welcome to the club.

(Dude... it's early... come on)

[mahoney2]

He needs to get 100+.

Why, to make you feel better? The team is 8-4 while, apparently you think, Gremades is in a slump (while he's hitting .380) Who really cares how many RBIs he has after two weeks when the team is winning?

Because it makes him look like a pussy and makes me look like an idiot for making all those arguments in his favor.

[mahoney2]

I don't think you looked like an idiot when you argued in his favor, but you do look like an idiot in this thread. He's got a .926 OPS. RBIs will come.

[Clay]

His numbers are slightly slanted by the fact that Clapp is picking up a lot of the RISP in front of him. He's having a fine season.
