SIM COMPLETE - 1980 - Sim 16

[Andrew]

Remember, trades need to be completed by 9 ET Thursday to get in before the non-waiver trade deadline.

Maine and Windy City are playing like they want a re-match!

[Sully]

5-2, and I lose a game. I love how my pyt. has me 30 games over .500.... :x

Same day my #1 starter re-signs for $20 mill, he injures himself.

How convienent...

Oh shit! Joe Santoyo threw a no hitter!

[rubisco43]

Don't forget about Hyundai. .602 winning percentage. 9 games up. 5-2 this past sim. Can't get much better than that.

damn, windy city's winning percentage is ridiculous.

you're peaking too early andrew. hahaha!

Rollin', rollin', rollin'....keep those Bulldogs rollin'....

Clearly, Pythagoras doesn't know shit about baseball. :D

Damn, I knew that guy could be good. Lamberts has been flat since his trade to my team.

Playoff hopes fading fast.

2 more strong starts for Jason Peyton. After a rough first outing, he's given me 3 solid outings in a row. He's a K machine.

24 ip, 15 hits, 5 earned runs, 24 k's

4-3, but you can't go 1-3 against the division leaders when your trying to catch up! Stupid, stupid, stupid. Did sweep denver to keep them half a game back of me. 9 games is a lot to make up, but we did just make a big trade for a legit starter. Hopefully thins will start turning around.

Rubisco, weren't you down by like 7 games at some point last year before you made your eventual climb to the top?

Yeah, i was down by quite a bit, then I traded for Jones and Drewery and those two guys put me over the top. Also didn't hurt that Keppel and Monterola were freaks down the stretch.

Virginia's Lemonade Moment of the Season:

Both my AA and A affiliates went undefeated on this SIM. Let's hope that bodes well for the future.

Rubisco, We played a classic on the 23rd.

Going from giving up a HR every 4 innings to every 7 innings. Hated to see him go, but he wasn't doing anything for me. Glad he's helping you out. I just hope you don't make the playoffs so I won't have to face him. :)

Yeah, I saw that crazy game. Tough one to lose. I was down 4-0 then 5-2. Tied it up with 3 in the 7th, then went ahead on a solo shot in the 9th... only to lose it by giving up a 3 run jack in the bottom half.

Every series between us seem to generate some crazy classic game.

If you think that's ridiculous, check out their winning percentage since June started. 37-11, .771. Also won 19 of their last 21. :shock:

My only hope is they cool off.
