I never thought I'd see .500 again...... It seems the D-3 teams are just beating each other up.

I've lost 4 in a row to D-3 teams on the road, 32 more road games in a row to go. :/

My Manchester Silver Bullets just reached the 40 win mark!! We're proving to be strong at home with a 21=4 mark. But not as good on the road with a 19-13 record. Our team avg is .270 and an ERA in the mid 3's.

Is there anything involved in financials aside from payroll? I read where a popular player brings in more attendance. I don't see anywhere that it translates to more dollars for the team, however. The scouting & development is all based on how much you don't spend, under the cap. So is attendance & popularity pretty much just fluff then?

Anyone had an injury yet?
I've had players at -69% stamina...but no actual injuries.

How did your relief pitcher manage to get a save in a 26 run rout? TLK |

I believe the official rules are that a relief pitcher is eligible for a save if he pitches 3 full innings and finishes the gameregardless of the score.

the documentation i read said 5 real days after the draft list is posted, regardless of the number of games per day on the schedule. Course, I forget when the draft list was posted.

The draft was posted 40 games, 5 real days into the season.
The draft takes place 5 real days, or 40 games, after the draft is posted. In short, we draft when game 80 or 81 rolls around. A mid-season June draft. |

Nobody can touch my team's pitching.
Looks like we are battling for a wild card spot if noone can catch the Silver Bullets in Div2.

For a look at a real league with all the little extras check out this.

Draft is done. I'm not sure how I got the guy I did at #1, I was trying to set it up so I would get a youngin, none of this 24 year old middle of the road talent BS.

Since I was drafting last, I don't even know how were ranked the ones I drafted...
I like my 2nd and 3rd rounders (even if I don't really need a defensive SS) but don't know if my 1st rounder is going to do anything good (superb throwing power but that's all) |

I was picking 2nd to last. I'm actually rather pleased. I got my 10th ranked player (23rd), 20th ranked player (47th), and my 58th ranked player (71st).
I set up the rankings before I read in the rules, where, if you start a player at a position for 80 games, he switches to that position the next season. Still, I'm very happy with the talent I got. Now, if I'd only known that you couldn't adjust your spending priorities during the season . . . |

I bet my #1 overall pick was a bit of a surprise. Simple. I wanted a solid starter to come into my rotation immediatly for the 2nd half. I had a black hole at the #4 slot in my rotation, so there ya go. We'll see how he performs.
My other picks should be decent players in a season or two. The CF I got may see time next season, considering he's the only true leadoff hitter we have, and already rated high at plate discipline. The 3rd round pitcher...give it a few seasons, and he'll be a #4-#5 starter. |

The guys I got suck. One of them may one day make a servicable player, but he'll never be above average. Ugh...

Hmm...not the best start for the #1 overall draft pick.
5 runs, 3 walks, 8 hits, 7 k's in 7.0 innings of work. |

A 3 game sweep over Whalers Connecticut may have saved me, I'm back up to .500 on my long road trip(12-12) with 12 more games to go.

At the risk of jinxing myself, we are on a tear. Playing a major homestand, and have vaulted from 3rd to 1st. I hope it can continue.
Div 2 is definatly where the best teams play!

After a 3 game sweep of the Vatos, Palm Desert closes out their ungodly 40 game road trip with a big test against league leading Victorville.
The team is itching to get this trip over with, as they haven't seen their homes since May. edit: And bah. Division 4 is the powerhouse here! I'll sweep this series to prove it! Last edited by Coffee Warlord : 03-18-2003 at 07:02 PM. |

Time to break out the Prozac
Sitting in last place of Division 1 and thinking things couldn't get mush worse, I notice that in 3 days we begin a 33 game road trip. How low can we go?

Coffee, an 11-1 loss is a great way to start a series. And how you establish dominance, I am in awe.
BTW in my massive homestand I am 32-16. We were 16-6 in our last road series and are about to go on the road again.

Somehow, after being in the cellar, I have recovered and am now tied for first place in Div 3. What the hell happened to the rest of you guys in that division?
