it definitely sucks but itll be a blessing. you got 33 games left to catch a 7 game lead, might be better to lose out and strengthen your draft position, and go into next yr with a healed (and more developed) squad.
Yeah, but one of those pitchers needs the developing...
Just looked at my schedule anyways, 3 vs. Philly and 4 vs. Cincy. I figure 0-7 with the 2 minor league pitchers I got going and no Bartlett to stop the bleeding. Lets see if I can find some lightning in a bottle. Really just want to stay around .500, get the most wins in a season ever for Seattle, and the Attendance record is going to fall. Hopefully my owner will open the bill fold and allow for free agent signings...

Not so fast my friend. You have the 3rd best record against me this season, at 3-3. And I'm rolling into this series w/o Wan, Becker and my starting SS. I'd say 3-0 Cincinnati is pretty unlikely. Plus, we're more than due to lose a couple.

Darn you Reign
Looked at the box scores....I had a 2-1 lead going into the 9th in the 4th game; my stud closer, who has allowed two homers all year long in over 50 innings pitched to that point.....gives up back-to-back homers to the first two batters to suffer just his 4th blown save all year. And does it after having Burgos down 0-2 at that!
Batting: SHB JĂșlio Burgos
0-0: Called Strike
0-1: Foul Ball, location: 2F
0-2: Foul Ball, location: 2F
0-2: Ball
1-2: Ball
2-2: Ball
3-2: Foul Ball, location: 2F
3-2: SOLO HOME RUN (Flyball, 89XD), Distance : 454 ft
Batting: RHB Arthur Mason
0-0: SOLO HOME RUN (Flyball, 7D), Distance : 350 ft

He's having a solid rookie campaign. Looks like I couldn't go wrong with either him or Cross in the big Pablo Garcia trade, so far.

454 from Burgos isn't a home run.... that's a BOMB!

Cross was definitely the better option for you. With that said, I thought Mason had a look at 30-30 this season. He has 8 homers to go though and I don't think he's going to get there.

Cincinnati CF Marty Crow has had 2105 defensive chances in his career... he has committed only 4 errors, for a career FPCT of .998. (When he has a down offensive year like this one, I just look at his defensive numbers)

His team sure is.
I think he has meaz he can plug into closer spot, And move Chavarria into setup role. Might not hurt him to bad.

Wow, just saw that Kelly had another two triple week. Sitting at 12 now. That record is going down, Shel....just a question of which of the two guys will get it.
Frost of Honolulu and Kelly both have 12 triples with 5 weeks to go.

Didn't Dak say you could request scouting reports for multiple guys and get those reports every sim?
I just tried 5 or 6 guys, and I only got 1 report back, the first one I requested.

One a sim? Lol
Like I said, I requested reports for a few guys for and only one back. That's how it's always been to my knowledge.

They fixed it. You can scout 1 per day now.

this game is so retarded sometimes i wanna strangle it. I got a minor league with a ML contract and hes hurt. so to get off the DL and to the minors, he needs to go through the majors. thats fine. So I send a guy down, put him on the majors, he has 2 days of injury time left.. the game instead of demoting keeps suggesting to put him on the DL! for 14 days. WHAT!?! So I cant even export.
