SIM COMPLETE - 1992 - SIM 3

...but the hitting was much worse. Not sure what happened there.

Against Syracuse, maybe. You Clowns ruined my Team ERA scoring 20 runs in three games.

Yeah, but not sure how we got those runs. When I look at the stats nobody really stands out. More of a team effort I guess.

It looked like there was a lot of BS in this thread. Then I saw the BS thread is locked and had my epiphany.

We float along. Took 1 off Pitt (moral victory) and split 2-2 with Maine. I'll take it. Starting pitching and Ed Andrew holding it down. Everyone else? Not so much.

Loving the SNL quotes...nice.

Mine was a mash of two SNL characters. It was fun. I'm going to do it again. Real soon.

Also, you need to update your signature. It's 1992 now.

1 - 6...Really? And I thought my rotation was lined up just the way I wanted it for this week's opponents. Most of these games were lost in the first three innings.

[Matt]

4-3

3-0 vs. Cali
1-3 vs. Balt

Ednams is hitting .234, Marin is hitting .220, and Nan is hitting .217. To be 9-10 with series against Virginia, Washington, and Baltimore I guess that's a small victory.

Our bullpen is also suffering mightily. Crossman has an ERA of 0.00, everyone else is 5.00 or higher with Basil P checking in at 7.04.

Come on boys...wake up!

Baltimore Bulldogs (15-4, 1st in Porter)

3-0 vs. PHI
3-1 vs. BAT

One helluva start to the season. 6-1 in the Porter and 15-4 overall to lead the league.

The Week in Review

- Wallace's Reply: I'm guessing Wallace didn't take kindly to me questioning his team crown last week. Following Kyoden's POW Award for Week 2, Wallace won the Week 3 IL POW Award.

- Patience Is A Virtue: I'm very impressed with our renewed patience this year. There are 16 players 14 or more BB so far this season. Over 30% of them play in Baltimore.

- Old Guys Rule: Jack Dynes is the oldest player on the Baltimore roster, but you couldn't tell by his play on the field last week. Dynes hit 10/19 with 3 BB and 7 RBI. He even played one of the Game 4 against Batavia with a strained calf, and still went 3/4 with 4 RBI and a home run.

Other News

- Its a shame that the game doesn't keep track of the inside-the-park-home runs, as (OF) Coy McPherson completed one in Baltimore in our 2-3 loss to Batavia. I'm not sure how often these happen in the BLB, although I do remember a certain VA star shortstop completing one a couple of years back.

-What's one of the best things to see as a GM when watching your team play? For me, its got to be watching a pitcher send one to the bleachers. Last week in the 4/25 matchup with Batavia, Garcia not only went 8.2 innings, but he also belted a two-run bomb.



The Injured
Jack Dynes- mild calf strain, 4 days

Next
More inter-divisional play as we fly out to LA for 2 games, fly back home to host Philly and end the week in my hometown for a three game series.


Predictions: 2-0 @ CAL / 1-1 vs PHI/ 2-1 @ CHI.

As we all said. If you don't win the Porter this year... your team has major problems.
