Yanks Imitate Real Life In My Franchise

[SLIMKALHUNNYC]

So Im about a month into my franchise and for the life of me, it seems that all of my starters are having a horrible start. Im currently at 3-12. I lost all of my series except the one against the A's. (walk off homer). Im really loving this game, but it seems that my pitching is looking like the real yanks.... This game is freakin awsome, I did however make a trade.

Wang for Liriano and gomez...IMO, i figured it would be good for us in the future, especially since im thinking about trading damon.

The one thing the I liked the most about this game is the fact the when Giambi came up to bat for the first time in Yankee Stadium, the fans gave him a standing Ovation, and he and Posada had a litttle chat before his at bat. Did any of you see this before in your franchises?

I kind of have to agree. Im the Yanks also and im at June 10th and am 2.5 gms behind the Sox. Im not doing terrible but there were games where my bullpen was doing really bad. Im currently in the middle of a 3 game set against the Sox and I have won the first game of the series yesterday to pick up a game on the first place Sox. So yeah, there are some games where I feel the game imitates reality well.

Im currently on June 11th of my yankees franchise and am in 2nd place 3.5 games behind the Sox. Here are some screenshots of my franchise. If the Yanks are where I am at on June 11th I would be a happy Yankees fan
