    Phillies are doing pretty well... finally. Still not playing the best we could but I think I can live with this production. I wanna get out of that "no playoff appearences" catatgory soon.

    If you got a good starter available i could trade from my good bullpen

    9-11 not normally a good sim, but I had a really tough schedule with road trips to PHI, ARZ, NYM so i'm pleased

    I will trade Porter, Blasingame, Diaz, and another spec for a top level starter or SS... aim or pm me

    Re: 2020 Random Ramblings

    Batting AVG: .253 (24th)
    Homeruns: 49 (T-17th)
    Walks: 236 (1st)
    Stolen Bases: 34 (T-19th)
    Runs Scored: 279 (19th)

    Pitching ERA: 5.15 (20th)
    Opponents AVG: .277 (21st)
    HRs Allowed: 62 (23rd)
    Walks Allowed: 214 (23rd)
    Runs Allowed: 311 (21st)

    Well it looked like the first 11-4 sim was a fluke. We're now one game under .500 and 6 back in the East. I figured we would be doing better than this. I need a guy that can hit for average though, this is ridiculous. I have one guy batting over .300 and that's only because this was his first sim.

    Re: 2020 Random Ramblings

    Thursday 5/11/2020 :
    Anthony Lerew has lost some movement on his pitches...
    Saturday 5/13/2020 :
    Matt Antonelli has lost some power to the gaps...
    Tuesday 5/16/2020 :
    Andrew Walker has lost some power...
    Wednesday 5/17/2020 :
    Justin Huisman seems to have lost some of his feel for his stuff...
    Aaron Toscano seems to have lost some bat speed, resulting in less contact...
    Austin Booker seems to have lost some of his feel for his stuff...
    Wendell Metzger has lost some lower body strength, his duration drops.
    Wednesday 5/24/2020 :
    Joaquin Arias has lost a step. His speed drops to 8 ...
    Tuesday 5/30/2020 :
    Duane South's control seems to have taken a bump...
    Tuesday 5/30/2020 :
    Andrew Walker plate discipline seems to have faded...


    Yikes.

    Baltimore's up by 5 on me, but Pyth-wise I'm 4 better...gotta love those 9 game swings.

    Weird note: Andrew Miller is 7-7 in 14 games. No-decisions be damned!
    I did a lot of good things as a sim league GM.

    Ah, give me something clever to say here.

    Lerew is 37, Antonelli is 35, Walker got injured, Huisman is 41, Arias is 35, Toscano had 4 contact before the talent loss, and South is injured out for the year. None of that should be all that shocking.

    Booker is the only one under 30 and his talent fell in line with his actual ratings...that happens a lot.

    I haven't touched the settings either as an FYI for people.

    my excuse? I didn't make the game back in 2004.

    and I know Brownie wasn't really complaining, but I wanted to point that out.

    Pretty estatic about the .500 record with Bonney and Butler out. Freitas continues to improve on his horrid National days, as he's currently 7-4 with a 3.59 ERA and 1.15 WHIP. He is currently tied for 3rd in W, 1st in Games Started, 2nd in Innings pitched, tied for 4th in quality starts, 8th in hits allowed (funny stuff), 8th in HRs allowed (even funnier), 7th in Ks, 1st in Batters Plunked and 4th in WHIP. Its the weirdest season for one of my starters. Morales is 6-1 with a 3.67 ERA. The two have been carrying the staff. I don't expect Fruto to catch either Cordero or Street. But if he can keep his ERA and WHIP below those 2 guys. Ill be happy.

    Ok, I think its time to consider trading Leif Schauer... he hasn't lived up to my expectations.
