2028 S3SL Random Ramblings

[DiamondDave]

All right

This is beyond funny now...

I have a team of hodgepodge pitchers, a few good offensive players, and a few more stand-ins on offense who would not be starting anywhere else... and suddenly I have the best record in the league and I'm #1 in the power rankings...

On seasons I have tried my ass off, I have not performed as well

Go figure

Batting AVG: .278 (15th)
Homeruns: 174 (3rd)
Walks: 515 (4th)
Stolen Bases: 146 (7th)
Runs Scored: 754 (3rd)

Pitching ERA: 4.42 (6th)
Opponents AVG: .265 (13th)
HRs Allowed: 94 (2nd)
Walks Allowed: 421 (14th)
Runs Allowed: 559 (4th)

I kinda know how you feel this year.

...Although anyone who bet on Baltimore and Texas to be 1-2 in the AL would have made a killing

Finally Cleveland's pitching staff seems to be catching up with them. Tied for the division and 2 games up on Anaheim for the Wild Card. Lizardo will set a new personal best in HRs, RBI, and about everything else. Too bad he still probably wont even come close to toppling Magner for MVP.

I'm Loving the Hunt/Wade duo leading off the games. Wade is practically hitting anything close and Hunts getting on base many ways as possible. But I think It's time to add a bit more muscle to the middle of that lineup. Cone's been as productive as I could have ever dreamed but St John is a complete monster. Little concerned over the 5 eye but should have enough in the rest to make up for it.

Little concerned that Detroits hanging around, the al central will be the best race of the bunch down the stretch.

I think if I could just make more contact, I'd be leading the league in scoring instead of jumping back and forth between 4th and 5th.

[Porter]

Juan Bonilla comes to Arizona and all of a sudden we are 1st in runs allowed.

[General]

I love how Anthony Bilger has the best sim of his career...and loses talent, becoming damn near worthless. Maybe a good backup.


Goodnight sweet prince.

First Place in the AL Central back to where the Twins should always be. Benito Mateo continues his Bronson Arroyo impression (when he's on he's nasty, when he's not he's really nasty as in bad). Mike McC has been a god send, I hope he has one more year in that arm. Ramon Omara finally had a decent month. Pitching seems to settled down, Dexter gets a call with expanded rosters everyone but 1 of my relievers is under 5 now. Johnnie Maselli continues to be the Riddler... How can someone have such a great WHIP and such an awful ERA.... Time for a little tweak to rest some guys and let St John and Dexter get their feet wet after being absolutely sick in AAA.

[General]

Masseli is simple: he gives up HRs.

[Slyder]

Masseli is simple: he gives up HRs.

He's "only" given up 18 this year. Ill have to do the math later and see how Masselli compares with the Runs/Hits+BB and see if he gets just really unlucky.

#58 Pedro Azicri, Starting Pitcher, 34 yrs, Washington Nationals - Out of the Park Baseball Report

64 HRs away from Robin Roberts' all time record of most home runs given up in a career.

[General]

And yet he's going to the HoF.

[bipster]

Cleveland can't bail the water fast enough on this sinking ship.

[Saber]

The Angels will have to WC in this year.

[BrewerBall13]

meanwhile, Detroit is using all of the smoke and mirrors it can find to still have an outside shot at the WC

[Kingdom]

Hell yeah, Diestefano can now become the S3SL version of Eric Brooks. Hopefully he fills out, I'll have my JMjr replacement for next year.
