It's because when we lose we lose big. But when we win the other team is always in the game.

I cannot believe Diego Morales didn't get hitter of the month for the AL in June.
He hit .432/.485/.614/ 1.098 6 doubles, 2 triples, 2 HR's, 15 RBI's, 20 runs scored, 10 walks and only 1 K for the whole month.

Have had some big injuries the last two sims. J. Cole is out for another 2 weeks, Morales out for 5 weeks, Sean Clark out for the season. Brought up Otto Morris to take his place, hopefully he can play as well as he did last year.

BTW, Wayne Washington and Eric Collins still on the trade block.

[GeorgesGoons]

Newly acquired do everything Eric Rhodes from Washington will now be the starting 2B now that Morales is out. Not sure if he is ready but he's getting thrown in there anyways.

Why are you the only one having these issues? Fix yo shiz!

I wouldn't know the first way to fix randomly not getting emails or randomly not having exports work, so in an effort to be efficient with my time, I'm not going to waste time trying to fix something I know I can't fix.

Efficiency!!!

[shel311]

I believe that it's now a requirement for me to point out every single time I get the bad end of a trade... just so it's known... so Shel, congrats on winning out on our last trade. The stud SP prospect I got immediately tore his labrum in his throwing arm. (Insert 3 more paragraphs of bitching about how this screws me for the next 10 seasons year... or something)

McMahon?

You're just compensating since you realized we're on to you!!!

Pythag!!!

2 seasons ago ( went 72-90, and I think I outscored my opponents. If not, they outscored me but it was something like single digits, somewhere basically even, but 18 games under .500.

You got me. I also intentionally injured my C and 1B, so that my league leading offense could be reined in... it worked perfectly, I think we averaged about 1.7 R/G last sim.

you scored 2 runs in 3 games vs me. Went up against the wrath of cody tyler. I won 2 of 3 vs you.... then dropped 2 of 3 to ohio lol.

[ReignOnU]

Cody Tyler owns me. Was the first SP I put on my All Star ballot for that reason alone.

and according to pythag Rams should be 42-40, to bad it doesn't help our reality...

Jones Twirls No-Hitter Against Detroit
Thursday, June 27th, 2024
In a brilliant performance at Dean Martin Park (Dil), Dillonvale pitcher Marvin Jones entered an elite group today by tossing a no-hitter against the Detroit Stars. Hurling a complete game he fanned 8 and walked 2 in the 5-0 victory.

In the clubhouse, Jones said, "I was getting my off-speed stuff over so they couldn't sit on the fastball. My guys made some nice plays behind me, too, and cut off several hits."

Over the season Jones has thrown 104 innings and dished out 90 strikeouts with a 7-4 mark and a 2.51 ERA.

Dillonvale goes 3-3 this sim.
We sweep the Detroit Stars in our 3 game series and then get swept by the Seattle Cougars for 3.

Reign already told you about the Marvin Jones story above.
In other news, RF Eric Miller gets suspended for 10 games. Apparently he and Detroit's Bob Baker got into a scuffle.
No details were released, just that there was a brawl and both players have been suspended.

In the next sim, we have 3 game series @ Pittsburgh Falcons and then a 4 game series at home against the South Park Cows and then it will be the all star break for 3 days.

I need Beefy to take care of my team more. Now the South Fucks need to start losing...and I need guys to start hitting
