2071 Season Thread... Cubbies Social Distance from the NDL

[Ry]

Bored? Watch a replay of a game! I just watched game 3 of WC vs. Sheltown. The Thunderbolts were 2 ft from tying the game in the top of the 9th on a deep ball to center. Definitely if the World Series went to game 7, watching it unfold on the field would be really fun for the 2 involved. I wouldn't mind watching it either as a spectator.

How did you do this?

It looks like you can only do this for your last game. I have it as one of the windows on the Managers Screen.

Go to NDL>Scores and then change to the date you want to watch. Then there should be a "Watch Replay" by the boxscore of the game you want to watch.

thanks for the heads up on this coug, I love it.

It's also borderline terrible to watch a game.

Player on second, ground ball through the hole on the right side. Outfielder picks it up, throws in to 2nd base. Player from second is just getting to third when this happens, then runs home while 2nd baseman holds the ball and watches.

I get it, the speed/timing of the runners vs the plays in the field is just off, but why spend time coding this into the game if it is this bad?

It’s clunky but makes sense when watching it. I’m going to watch a few going forward

Draft pool is out, start getting those draft lists going and scout guys if you'd like. Draft will begin Friday, April 17th at 9 am CST

Duane Atkins out 9 months with Tommy John... Yikes, I would have expected James Johnston
Billy Miller out 7 weeks with a strained triceps
Trey Woodard has a 3 HR game in a win over Sheltown
Paul Sanchez out 12 months with a torn UCL... Moose Jaw needs to sacrifice a goat to the OOTP gods
Luis Torres AL POTW hitting .276 with 6 HRs
Ed White NL POTW hitting .571 with 3 HRs

My scouts highest rated position player in this draft is a 46 pot. Not a single hitter with 65 contact.... Oh boy

[Uuaww]

its like the old days when i first started when by the time round 3-4 were around we were all drafting 20/20s

That will be the case when I pick in the first round it looks like lol

OOTP Developer Lukas Berger

There are something like 30 non relief pitchers in the entire MLB roster set, current players and prospects included, that have 5 star potential (using real ratings, not with scouting on). Probably around half of those are international players who didn't come through the draft.

As far as prospects specifically go, there are 7 of these.

So given the matrix we use, more than one or two of these guys in a given draft would not be realistic. It would be significant overkill.

That being said, we did just boost the potentials of a few of the top guys in the next 2-3 drafts, so the quality of the top players in the draft should be slightly improved in this patch.

Drafts in general will likely be worse on 21, but this first one will be especially bad since the players for the pool were generated prior to any changes made during patches

The best hitter in the AL this week hit .276?!?

That’s a first

WTF is going on at Adult Friend Finder Field? Definitely thought they would be better, wake your boys up Dave!

As I was typing it I thought man, have I ever typed one under .300. Then again I'd rather have .276 with 6 HRs than .351 with 2 HRs

Johnston was injured the previous sim.

Guess you can win your precious AL West now.

We’re not that good

Moved a couple huge bats and replaced with inexperienced guys and my reliever of the year has already blown 3 9th inning leads

But mostly we’re just an average team

It’s also 3 weeks into the year

I just don't want to hear about Nick's team all year long. Get those digital asses moving in the right direction

I won 7 in a row, not yours to give away Pete!!!!

I did not notice JJ, thats rough. I am used to you posting and blaming me.

Nah. Just waiting for the next pitcher to go down so I can pull a D91 and whatever that other guys name was many seasons ago.

When I drafted/traded for that core of pitchers none of them were fragile. Most were durable. I lose at least two a season for an extended time, none of that few weeks BS.

[wdoupis]

Season thread is named after him and this negative... sheesh

You, of all people, KNOW I have a right to be frustrated with these pitchers and injuries!

[plasma1896]
