Your team ERA was 4.40 the year you won a title(good for league average), does that also mean pitching isn't important?

The comparison shouldn't be to real life it should be team to team in the game. Pitchers numbers will be worse with a bad defense behind them that's a fact, black and white. If team A and team B have the same offense and pitchers, but Team B field the ball better who's going to win?

I think it has been explained before that the wall size doesn't really factor in? You could have 5000 ft walls and it wouldn't matter? Or was that earlier versions of the game?

What is the dimensions of my stadium? I'm sure it's much deeper than the average stadium in our league. Was going to build my team with high contact high speed kind of guys and play small ball once everything is in place....probably going to be 2055 by the time that comes around

My pitching is the reason I won the title. My pitching was spot on in the playoffs

Maybe your defense had something to do with that?


Also...fluke of all flukes. :)

The real fluke would be you winning one ;)

I had to run the gauntlet to win, on the road in New England (in 5), road against New York (in 7) and road against Cincinnati (in 7). My only easy series was the ALCS against Chicago, on the road in 5

Somebody wondered about players becoming coaches earlier. For the most part it's random but you could in theory "make" them become ones
Commissioners can turn any retired player into a coach. To do so, just right-click on a retired player and select Turn into Coachfrom the right-click menu. This can also be done from the Action Menu in the Player Profile.

Hired John "The C" Johnston as my pitching coach this season. Hopefully he coaches better than he pitched for us

The last few seasons, my Starter ERA on the NDL Home page has been in the top 3 that is listed there and I believe it is because of my defense that they are rated up there.
My Defense efficiency has been #1, I believe, the last few seasons.

It all goes hand in hand.
Unless you have a crazy offense and can put up darn near double digits every game, you need to have a decent rotation and your defense helps your pitchers.

I do know that you do need some offense though.
Main reason I have made the last few trades I have made.
No matter how good your defense is, you need to be able to put a few runs on the board to win games.

Can I offer Wayne Washington a hitting coach job on my SA team (it's filled but you can fire the other guy)? You can give him what he wants in his demand for that position at that level. Let's bring some Hall of Famers into our coaching mix. And he needs to come home to help my next breed of hitters that I am about to start drafting.

Would certainly be a fun idea.

I'd like to hire PAB as a pitching coach etc. Could be a fun little immersion maker!

Yup we could do that.

Just need a structure to it so they can be signed accordingly to where you want them within your system.

I would think AJ should get first dibs on Hays since he played there wears their hat. Not sure on Saurez, too lazy to look him up.

I can fire my SA hitting coach if it makes it easier for you. If not, give him what he is asking and place him there. Same with Pablo Garcia in SA. The Beef needs some Legends to help motivate these kids digital desire. I appreciate it
