2012 standing and stats

Monarch Grays

Hitting: Pop Lloyd appears to be back from injury, confirm Pop at SS and hitting 2nd

Pitching: Rollie Fingers has been brutal with 50% saves and 11 losses, might as well try Mike Marshall as closer and move Fingers to set up.

i'm noticing hack wilson is starting alot of back to back games or in close proximity...is there a glitch in the rotation between the percentages for the bums?

The Bums have a 4 man rotation with Buffington getting 20% spot starts. There is no reason for Wilson to ever pitch since he isn't rated for it. I can't even force a player to pitch if he isn't rated for it, so trying to have a player play all nine positions in one game is out of the question unless he is rated for pitching.

thru Sept 2nd

From here out I will be posting every 3 games until the end of the season.

nice...3 games micro-management. let's try a few things.

make sure the Catcher position bats in the 2nd spot permanently whether piazza or torre is catching.

for dh platoon jack clark vs lhp/will clark vs rhp

play jeff kent at 3b and bench chipper jones

play roberto alomar 2b full time

larkin is still ss full time

hack wilson 15 starts 22 innings 75 earned runs 29.73 era, now we know why we are the bums

I was hoping to draft hack, glad I didn't

He must really be hitting the bottle this season.

sucks the bums did not get a fair shot this year...although in this division everyone was pretty much out of it early on. maybe we can hope for a red sox-like collapse from the OD

Manager fired, going with a hack who doesn't mind stealing sucessful strategy:

OFFENSE:
bunting for a hit - 2
sacrafice bunt - 4
squeeze bunt - 4
hit and run - 2
stealing - 2
base running - 2
taking pitches - 2

PINCH HITTING:
for pitchers - 3
for non-pitchersm - 3
for platoon partners - 2
in blowouts - 2

PITCHING:
pitching around - 3
intentional walk - 2
pick off throws - 2
pitching out - 2
using relievers - 2
using closers - 2

DEFENSE:
holding runners - 2
infield in - 3
guard the lines - 3

since blyleven is out...plug tom glavine into his spot. 4 man rotation.

let C mike piazza play 100% of games...we'll see if 4 guys can hit 40hr/100rbis

replace 3b chipper jones with jeff kent

Hack is 0-13 pitched better this time , i think he may have lasted 2 innings in one game

can we take those 13 games that hack pitched and run the sim for those 13 games only?

Sadly, not. The only way to rerun a game is to restart the whole season. I'm not opposed to running the sim again after everything is done. Takes the sim about 5 minutes to run a whole season uninterrupted.

Sounds good

I agree that the season should be rerun, the hack Wilson not only skews his team but the team that they played when Hack pitched.

I agree, Hack pitching an anomalous inning, OK, but 17 games had to hurt. Seems as though Hack Wilson was mistaken for Wilson Valdez.

this season will have an asterisk *

I'm not opposed to starting over if everyone else wants to. Have poll posted.

I'm game ,just to see what could happened,but you would need to drop hack completly,I saw a bad downturn in moral,once hack starting pitching

Hack will definitely be dropped. Just let me know who you want to replace him.

If we rerun the whole season, can we also resubmit our lineup/settings for the rerun? I just want to say it has been a lot of fun doing this league,

Andrew

If we a do restart it will be from scratch. New line ups, new settings, etc and running the season two weeks at a time.

Honestly, I don't think a whole lot will change. The Bums run differential has been negative since the start. They were defying the odds early on by being well over .500 for much of the early past of the season. Although their differential will probably go down with Wilson out of the lineup. Don't think it's enough to put them over the top though.

I think the SIM is different every time. I drafted players that have always done exceptional but this time around they are just average, but my whole team seeems to be average or and above and I am leading so that must be good.
