Yep. It predicted I would win 76 games based on my two-man pitching rotation and my five man batting lineup

thats because those are your only decent players

No, I mean that's the only people I had in there. My two best hitters (Hayden and McMinn) weren't even in the lineups because I had taken them out because I was still working on the new orders.

winning 76 games with only 5 players in the field is pretty damn impressive.

i cant stop laughing. jsence you dont really think that projection was based off 7 total players do you?

My lineup has been set basically since the end of the playoffs, and my projection is 77 wins or something, just like last season.

Like Reign said, it was a random guess, but I highly doubt that is the reason these projections are so far off.

Yeah, I really have no idea, that just kind of made sense from a programming perspective. The other side of it could have been that Louisville SP situation is such crap that it just assumed they'd give up big leads, then that dude would come in and be the beneficiary of the Louisville offense finally kicking in.

File up. Email sent. Website updated.

Next sim is tomorrow, Thursday, 3/21.

This is an 8 day sim and your opportunity to start prepping for Opening Day.

Here's the News, yes, all of it...

I forgot. I knew there was something I wanted to do when I was starting to sim. I'll get it tomorrow.

Vaughan Walker and Lawrence Vickers are throwing back the clocks this Spring.

H. Sun not being signed right now blows my mind.

Pipliners go 5-2 this sim. 12-8 on the spring and the only time you will see our name at the top of the division.

The surprise of this sim was Becker or Bocca didnt pitch an inning. Pipeliners this sim were lead by 2 former Hawks. They are bringing the winning attitude to the clubhouse this spring.


E. Ramsey : 25 AB, 7 H, 3 HR, 7 RBI, .280 AVG, 1.238 OPS
S. Burns : 27 AB, 10 H, 0 HR, 7 RBI, .370 AVG, .844 OPS
J. Chávez : 27 AB, 7 H, 3 HR, 6 RBI, .259 AVG, .963 OPS

Type B might be the reason, just my guess

I get what Plasma is saying...i do. That said the way guys value draft picks that may or may not turn into a decent player 3-5 seasons from now over a proven guy is precisely why some teams struggle IMO

Plan B you don't lose a pick someone just gains a comp pick, right?

i think, but i'm not positive

they'll do it with type A guys too though

So what's the ramification of signing a Type B guy?
